[edit] Description

Buccaneer's Den is the name of a island and the town on the island in the middle of the ocean, west of New Magincia. A little east, the small Orney's Island guards the harbour entrance.

Lawful Britannians should avoid this place. While having lost most of its wildness in the recent years, Buccaneer's Den is still a foul place full of pirates and other criminals seeking refuge there. Illegal gambling in the House of Games and prostitution in the House of Baths are commonplace in the town. The dark Buccaneer's Cave gives the shadiest personage refuge, even from the daylight.

Economically, beside illegal things, weapon shops and a tavern are found in the town, while the Guild sells the most exotic merchandise.

[edit] History

The town of Buccaneer's Den was founded in the time after Ultima III and before Ultima IV. In Ultima IV, it was not on navigation charts, and already was quite a lawless place. It stayed that way in Ultima V and Ultima VI, with the guild being strong on the island. In Ultima VII, it became a stronghold of the Fellowship, with many of the illegal activities there, like the House of Games and the Bathes(Brothel), filling their pockets. Their influence remained there, even after their outlawing.

Buccaneer's Den changed in Ultima IX, seen by many as non-canon.

[edit] Buccaneer's Den in Ascension

Buccaneer's Den became a total cliché pirate town in Ascension, so full of stereotypes that it was simply horrible. Ruled by Samhayne, it played an important part in the plot.
