Malifora

Malifora is a gypsy woman and fortune teller living in Moonglow in the time of Ultima V. She is a member of the Great Council. Her powers allow her to divine certain things for the Avatar, notably the mantra of Honesty and the Word of Power for Dungeon Deceit. She is the mother of Malik.

In the Lazarus version of the game, Malifora lives on the outskirts of Moonglow and in disguise. Malifora is a former member of the Great Council who went into hiding with her son Malik as soon as the troubles with Blackthorn started. The two were forced to abandon their second home in Britain (mostly used while there were Great Council meetings in the Castle, and a move neither of them liked as both had friends there) as well as their usual home in Moonglow in an attempt to acheive annonymity. Malifora has returned to her 'natural calling' as a gypsy and turned to living in a brightly painted wagon outside Moonglow. She is not free with her name, and is referred to by the people of Moonglow only as the Gypsy. She is often consulted for fortune telling. She also does some glassblowing on the side and makes a variety of small trinkets and ornaments, both cheap and expensive, which have become somewhat popular in Moonglow.

Malifora is a strong supporter of the Resistance but does not speak of it. She spends most of her time in her house working with glass or consulting with those who seek their futures. She will 'crystal gaze' for the Avatar on several topics.

Quests

 * The Avatar needs Malifora's aid to enter the astronomy tower.
 * Malifora lost a prized piece of work, the Crystal Tear, which she may ask the Avatar to keep an eye out for.

Easter Eggs

 * In the original game, the gypsy is described as "old, strangely familiar gypsy", possibly indicating she is the same gypsy from the game's character creation.
