This article is about a character from Ultima IV. For the Ultima VI character, see Michelle.


Michelle is a beautiful paladin living at Serpent's Hold during Ultima IV.

Description[edit]

Michelle welcomed the Stranger to the castle and gave directions to the healer's and to the lord of the castle, Sentri.[1]

Trivia[edit]

NES remake
  • If asked about Sentri, Michelle gives directions to the west passage, although the lord of the keep is situated in the north of the castle.[1]
  • She also has text giving directions to the healer but, due to a keyword collision between 'heal' and 'health', it cannot be seen in game. She would have directed the Stranger down the east passage which is also incorrect. The healer's is north and through the door to the east.[1]
  • In the novelization of Ultima IV in Ultima: The Avatar Adventures, the Stranger (here portrayed as a male) is quite taken with Michelle, and does his best to avoid gawking at her during their conversation.[2]
  • In the Nintendo remake of Ultima IV (where most character names were omitted and dialogue was significantly modified), Michelle can be identified as a guard in the same location, who similarly welcomes the Stranger to the castle.[3]
