Ultima V: Lazarus[edit]


This is an Ultima V: Lazarus-related article or section. The information within may not apply to Ultima V or other Ultima games.


In Ultima V: Lazarus, Rob is the grandson of Greg, who is the joint owner (with a different Rob) of the Folley Tavern in Paws during the Age of Enlightenment. When Greg and his friend and partner eventually died from old age, and Rob's parents died too, Rob sold the Folley Tavern to Dr. Cat (who renamed it to The Cat's Lair) and left Paws. He traveled for a few months but sorely missed the tavern in which he had grown up. He offered his services to Lord Shalineth at the Lycaeum and established The Folley Tap, serving prime quality food and drink to all within.[1]

Rob praises his Wild Rabbit Stew, noting it is one of the most popular dishes on Verity Isle, but his supply of rabbit has recently become scarce due to his former visitor, Lord Stuart the Hungry.[2]

Trivia[edit]

  • There is another tavernkeeper named Rob in Paws in Ultima IV. The name of his tavern, Folley Tavern, is also very similar to the The Folley Tap.[3]
  • There is another tavernkeeper named Rob in Moonglow in Ultima VI. His specialty, Frasier's Folley, has a similarity in name to the Folley Tavern.[4]
