Dell is a provisioner in Trinsic in Ultima VII. His shop is situated along the street called Paladin's Path, a little ways north of Chantu's practice.
Description[edit]
Dell came across as a grumpy, unpleasant and self-absorbed man, caring only for his business and little else. He was an ardent Fellowship member, claiming the group allowed him to connect better with his fellow people, and was described as possibly having been a fighter of some sort in the past. During interactions with him, he could prove to be remarkably rude to the Avatar and would frequently complain about the lack of money spent at his establishment, regardless how much the hero had already purchased. He seemed somewhat disinterested in other matters.
Dell was also apparently fleeced by Sullivan, or some other impostor in the guise of the Avatar, for a sum of twenty gold coins but a week before the actual Avatar's arrival – an incident which might explain his gruff behavior towards the hero as a customer.[1]
Prices in Ultima VII are as follows:[2]
- Dell is the author of The Provisioner's Guide to Useful Equipment, a book which exhorts adventurers to purchase a variety of supplies. Curiously enough, this volume can also be found on the far-flung shores of Serpent Isle, despite its long separation from the lands of Britannia.[3][4]
- Dell's shop contains a secret door leading to his supply room. It can be opened by moving the wooden shield in his building main room and then pulling the lever hidden behind it.
- Dell's shop also contains a great dagger, sitting in plain sight on a table.
