Siege Crafters is an armoury in Serpent's Hold, living symbol of the Principle of Courage. This establishment appears during Ultima V and Ultima VI.

History

Founded some time prior to the rise of the Oppression, the shop was run by Thol during Ultima V. Later in Ultima VI, it was run by Gherick, who was an expert at crafting shields, being the only one who knew how to create magic shields for the Order of the Silver Serpent.

By the time of Ultima VII, Siege Crafters had closed down and the keep produced their weapons themselves, as seen with Sir Richter.
