Boskin

Boskin is a thief jailed by the Court of Justice in Yew in Ultima VI.

Description
Boskin was a liar and a cheat whom the Avatar met incarcerated in Yew. He had been jailed for stealing and hiding the rune of justice from the former Lord Mayor of Yew's grave. He further tried to win sympathy from the Avatar by claiming that he was merely a poor farmer who only stole the rune to feed his family, until Lenora informed the Avatar the Boskin actually had no such relations. The Avatar could convince Boskin to reveal the location of the rune by lying to Boskin and telling him he would be set free, or by confronting Boskin with the truth about his family. Either way, Boskin revealed that he had hidden the rune under a potted plant in The Slaughtered Lamb pub in Yew.

The Ultima 6 Project
In The Ultima 6 Project, Boskin admitted that some of the story about his family was a lie, but that he had a wife (name) and son (name). During Boskin's incarceration, his friend Witton had been helping feed his family. Despite this family, Lenora was unwilling to release Boskin even if he gave up the location of the Rune of Justice.
