Uberdieck to Uxors
|
Uberdieck, Uther (NPC) - Jacketz Consul for Anthraco Mining. Contact for first Omnico Abraxian shrine mission. Box 110 Mail Mall East, Jacketz, Dun Cess Conf.
Uchebnick - peninisula of land extending out of the glacier near Pavimentum. Home of The Pat, as mayor of Patville and destination of The Great Migration of the gypsy elves, much to the dismay of the authorities on Pavimentum who have bickered among themselves for ownership of the peninsula for years without ever doing anything useful with it. Source of chinquin sap and/or sarin bark.
Ultima Thule - an interesting island (about 40 square miles in area) in the northern Western Ocean postulated to be a Gnockagon point.
Umbel Thistles - dark green on Vyrica, juice causes stupidity even in small amounts and large amounts will cause total amnesia. Component for feeble mind.
Umberhulks - formidable creatures found on Persand.
Undead - Includes creatures as diverse as skeletons, zombies and liches. Peregrine Falcon learned that they tend to be immune to neuromancy, or at least "command". See also Animation. Associated with ivory as a spell component?
Underwood, Thomas (Ben/NPC) - Human accountant hired by SOAK in June 10042 to handle day-to-day business. Dry. Fixated on the bottom line.
Unicorn Horn - component for teleport.
Universalists - require 10% tithing. Members: Liam Cosgrove, Cardinal Fitzroy, Othniel, Theresa Troost. Aspiring Knight: Thomas Samson.
Universe, Tex (Nick) - Member of the Pike Group. Bravely tried to rescue two STUPID newbies in the crevasse leading to the "Head Mindflayer Room" on the Black Wall Mission. Missions: Black Wall.
Uranti, Marduk (Brian) - Had an adventure with owls and found the Abraxian Shrine in the Sprines. Became a prophet of Abraxis and was last seen freezing to death in the liquid-nitrogen Beigebeard trap on Adam-Ondi-Ahman. Was thought to be in possession of a cool "Sword of Marduk." Is the target of an Abraxian dooming of Omnico.
Urquhart (NPC) - an experienced El Ouhd agent as of November 10043. Missions: Taniger Rescue.
Ursula (NPC?) - elvish archeress. Member of Pike Group. After the battle with Mowcrot on the Eck Temple Mission, she confessed that she could get a boat there to pick the group up within a week if they would swear allegiance to Ghenjar. Before any decision was made on that point, The Ambrosia came to get them, but Ursula wasn't there to meet the boat. It can only be assumed that she found her way back to civilisation on her own boat. Speculation arose that Ursula might in fact be Anaphora, who was last seen working for Aritheya, and who was also an archeress and painter. But Marie Marat did not recognize her (she and Anaphora had gone to school together.) It was rather frustrating for Marie, since she was unlikely to see her again, and part of her wanted to reconcile with her (they parted unamicably). Missions: Eck Temple Mission.
Uxors - dangerous, powerfully psionic humanoids that have been known to eat heads. It may be that their psionic powers increase with the square of their number or some such thing, because the one by himself was fairly easy for two average types from the Pike Group to defeat whereas a small group of them was difficult for the whole party to defeat.
