Ocllo map |
In Ultima Online, the town of Ocllo in Britannia lies on the island of the same name, which is located in the midst of the ocean south of the city of Magincia.
Description[edit]
The island is covered by sparse forests and in the northeastern part one can find the city of Ocllo. In the center of the island is a large salt water lake that connects to the ocean with a narrow river. Occlo does not exist in the original Britannia. Ocllo is considered to be a safe haven on the Felucca side of Britannia, containing next to no monsters and providing the traveler with all the things needed before entering the world of Britannia itself. One disadvantage is that it has no moongate and can only be reached by ship, after leaving the first time.
Lore[edit]
“ | The civilization of Ocllo lies hidden deep in the mountains on the island south of Magincia. Their knowledge of what lies beyond their mountains is fairly limited, and to them, everything in the region is part of Huansuytin, the World. The Ocllo build terraces along the mountains, upon which they grow their crops: corn and potatoes and other staples do well enough up here, but the lack of availability of fresh water is a problem for them. Mages often spend their days working at ways to get fresh water for the irrigation of the foodstuffs. The Ocllo are master stoneworkers and metalworkers, and are expert weapon makers, even though they have no neighbors to fight. In their distant past, before the various mountain tribes (and races) were unified into one culture, they must have fought long and bloody wars. Also, the great and mysterious upwelling of sea water in the Salt Lake drags in fish and creatures of the oceans, and the reed-lashed boats of the Ocllo have permitted them to become expert fishermen. Everything the Ocllo have must be built out of the shades of stone found in their mountains. They bleach and they redden the gray stone, and they have a highly prized vein of white stone they use as well. Much of their work relies on the squared corner, with pillars a common trait. Most outsiders would find their style to be confining and claustrophobic, although once inside, the habitations are as colorful as the Ocllo can make them. Blue and greens are predominant, mostly in weavings. |

“ | This might be considered the capital city for bards. Others might find it a bit dry, and definitely difficult to get to, as the only entrance to this city is a small inlet to the south. The Bardic Collegium provides not only good prices to members, but also a wide variety of instruments for practice. Although some have been known to be "borrowed" for a while, it takes a practiced, deft touch to do so and it is generally considered a knavely thing to do. |

Trivia[edit]
- Ocllo no longer exists on the Trammel part of Britannia[1], where instead the island of New Haven exists.
