Linnet is a human outcast living on the fourth level of the Abyss in Ultima Underworld, who is very knowledgeable.

Description[edit]

Linnet was sentenced to rot in the Abyss after he held down a man while his brother kicked their victim to death for somehow dishonoring their sister. Linnet, when called out that he still was an accomplice to murder, acted entirely unrepentant and styled himself as the victim instead of admitting responsibility for his own fate.

Linnet proved to be quite versed in the history of the Abyss colony and also knew of the various sights of the fourth level, in which he lived. He warned the Avatar to not cross the chaos knight Rodrick, who, despite attempts from the Knights of the Crux Ansata and the local Trolls, still terrorized the fourth level. Linnet added, that Dorna Ironfist was now offering a reward for slaying Rodrick. Linnet also could tell that Arial had been brought into deeper parts of the Abyss.

Later, Garamon rescued him when the volcano erupted.

Lore[edit]

Should you become misdirected on this level, seek out Linnet here. He knows much about what goes on in these parts — perhaps too much. I know that he has been hunting down rumors of my doings; I find such curiosity unacceptable.
