Shak is a member of the mountain-folk and the best blacksmith in the Abyss. He appears in Ultima Underworld.
Description[edit]
When the Avatar first found him in his hidden workshop on the second level of the Abyss, Shak offered his services of repairing and identifying items for the right price in gold. He also told the Avatar about the fantastic sword Caliburn, the sword of Justice. This proved to be important, as the Avatar later found Caliburn broken into two pieces, and it took Shak's experience (and a lot of money) to forge a functional sword. Shak was also delighted to see the Shield of Valor, if the Avatar had acquired it and chose to show it to Shak. Later, he was likely rescued by Garamon, when the volcano erupted.

One of the most annoying denizens of the labyrinth is Shak. He is a smith of the mountainmen, and he is helpful, even honest. For a fee, he repairs damaged weapons for the other denizens — but not for my minions. He knows a little about two of Sir Cabirus’ talismans, the wretched Sword Caliburn and the Shield of Valor; and, though he knows that the sword was broken in two, he knows not where its pieces or the shield are. If he did know, of course, I would have to deal with him.
