Hawkwind
Hawkwind, from Ultima IV
Species: Human
Appearances
Ultima IV
Location: Castle Britannia
Description: seer

Hawkwind is the Royal Seer, who can be found in Castle Britannia.

In Ultima IV, he provides a pivotal role by informing the Stranger how he is progressing in his Avatarhood in each of the Eight Virtues.

In Ultima IX: Ascension, it was revealed that Hawkwind was actually the Time Lord in disguise. It is unclear if he is the same Hawkwind mentioned as being "the great cartographer" responsible for the cloth map (in the Ultima III manual).

Lore[]

Residing within Lord British's castle is the Royal Seer, Hawkwind. Many aspire to tread the Path, but very few find their way. Seek the advice of the Seer as to thy progress upon the Path. He can look into thy heart's heart and read thy progress or failure. Heed his advice, for feet that have strayed may be brought back upon the Path.

- from The History of Britannia (Ultima IV)
