Mr. Blip is an exiled mage living in a cave north of Minoc in The Ultima 6 Project.
Description[edit]
After entering a cave north of Minoc which was only accessible by sea, the Avatar met him and Miss Blip. Instantly recognizing the Avatar, Mr. Blip was aghast that the hero would ignore the clearly posted signs outside the cave warning of the contagious nature of their affliction, the Lycaeum Aggravatus Infirmus Magus (LAIM) disease. He admitted to the hero that Mr. Blip was not his real name, as the illness had caused him to forget it. Mr Blip further explained that only mages were susceptible to the LAIM sickness, which caused random short-range teleportation, forgetfulness and the loss of hair. As a result the two had become exiles from the Lycaeum.
He knew his fellow exile Miss Blip had made progress on a cure, but thanks to the teleportation and forgetfulness, he never managed to talk to her about it. So, he asked the Avatar to discuss the possibility of a cure with Miss Blip.
Trivia[edit]
- The Ultima 6 Project development team has stated that Mr. and Miss Blip are based upon two specific team members, but have refused to state their identity. It is believed that it has something to do with certain team members who were unable to stay connected during team IM chats, thus "blipping" in and out of the chat room.
