Doris is the innkeeper at the Tinker's Inn in Minoc in Ultima VI.
Description[edit]
Doris was an annoyed young woman who was more interested in her magic studies than the Tinker's Inn. The young scholar explained that she was upset at her father for withdrawing her from the Lycaeum to help manage the family business so he could go off and fight the gargoyles. Previously, she had studied under the mage Xiao, one of the most talented mages in Britannia. Doris felt that the people in Minoc did not respect her talents, and that the needs of her patrons were trivial and inconsequential. Doris dismissed the Avatar as another such annoyance.[1]
The Ultima 6 Project[edit]
This is an Ultima 6 Project-related NPC article or section. The information within may not apply to Ultima VI or other Ultima games.
In The Ultima 6 Project, Doris was willing to tell the Avatar the location of fresh mandrake root in exchange for the hero bringing her some. The root could be found south of Minoc across the Bloody Plains. Only the roots picked within one hour of midnight were potent enough for use in magic.
Lore[edit]
| “ | The inn is comfortable, and there are plenty of places to pick up trinkets, if you're trying to win someone's favor, I'll grant that. – from The Book of Prophecy (Ultima VI)
