Windwalker is the proprietor of Courage Healer in Serpent's Hold during Ultima IV.

Description

A typical healer of the age, Windwalker was a man of few words, tending mainly to the duties of his practice, and occasionally attempting to solicit donations of blood to help in his work. At the time the Stranger passed through Serpent's Hold during the quest toward Avatarhood, Windwalker's only patient was Lassorn, a sailor who had survived the sinking of HMS Cape.

Lore

“	Fear not if ye or any of thy companions be sore wounded, for within the walls of Serpent's Castle dwells a healer most skilled. – from The Way of the Avatar (Ultima IV)

Trivia

• In the PC version of Ultima IV has a bug such that the player may not speak to Windwalker.
• An Angus MacTaggart appears in various lists for for the Society for Creative Anachronism's barony of Bryn Gwlad – where Richard Garriott has been known to participate in the persona of Shamino Sallé Dacil. This person is listed as also claiming the name "Hawk Windwalker" as a craft name and appears to have used the nickname "Hawkwind" – making it possible that the healer and legendary seer featured in Ultima may be based on this real world individual.
• Windwalker is also the name of a roleplaying game released by Origin Systems in 1989.
