Michael

Micheal, aka Blade is a criminal and murderer, living in a lone house at the road from Britain to Skara Brae.

Michael was a criminal since the time before Ultima VI. One of his known crimes was, that he murdered Quenton of Skara Brae after he had been unable to repay a loan Michael had given him. And to add insult to injury, he even tried to get close to Quenton's unsuspecting daughter Marney. When the Avatar met him in Ultima VI, Michael was very hostile, not even giving his name, since he knew the hero's reputation. And the Avatar was unable to solve the crime.

But justice caught up with Michael. And Mordra told the Avatar in Ultima VII, that Michael had been sentenced to death by beheading in the High Court at Yew shortly after he/she had left Britannia. A fitting end, she commented.

Gideon, the innkeeper at Skara Brae, commented that Michael had gotten tangled up in the wrong group of kids when he was very young, and said that if he had been raised by someone with a good heart, he might have been one of Lord British's greatest knights.
