First appearance: Ultima VI
Last appearance: Serpent Isle

Alligators are large, predatory reptiles native to a variety of worlds. They appear in Ultima VI, Ultima VII, and Ultima VII Part Two.

Description[edit]

Physically, the alligators of Britannia and Serpent Isle are comparable to those of Earth. Dwelling in swamplands and marshes, these beasts are extremely territorial, and unlike their often timid Terran counterparts,[1] they show no fear of man and will violently attack any travelers who wander to close to their domiciles.

Relying on their muscular tails and deadly bites in combat, these creatures are a formidable opponent to an ill-equipped warrior and are unafraid to feast on human flesh when it is available. A well-outfitted opponent, however, can usually dispatch an alligator with little difficulty.
