		He (or she) is not an embodiment of a god (as in the traditional meaning of the term "avatar"), but of a set of ethic guidelines called the Virtues.
		Ultima IV seems to say they are different persons altogether, but later Ultimas (Ultima VII part two: Serpent Isle as the most definite example) imply the Stranger and the Avatar are one and same person.
		Ultima IX does not allow the character to be named, as at the time the implementors believed fully spoken dialogue was not possible to implement around this, but with the fan-made dialogue patch, this is possible.

		When he first came to Britannia he resided in the town of Britain, however after his great adventuring partner was deemed the Avatar, he moved into the Deep Forest outside Yew, where he keeps his talking horse, Smith (Iolo constantly scolds the horse for his sarcastic comments to the Avatar).
		By the time the Avatar made his final journey to Britannia, Iolo was an old man. He moved to a woodland estate east of Britain and fell under the Guardian's control in an expedition to Dungeon Despise.
		The Avatar freed Iolo, who eventually repaid the Avatar by teaching him an advanced bow skill, and placing the rune of compassion inside the tower at Despise -- facilitating the destruction of the Guardian's evil chokehold on the land.

	The Ethics of Lord Blackthorn
		Ultima IV (U4) was truly a hallmark of computer role-playing games, and was revolutionary for its emphasis on virtue on the part of the player.
		Ultima V (U5) was more of an evolution from U4 - combat and the actions of non-player characters (NPCs) were improved, but as the basic design of the game hadn’t been overhauled from U4, it gave the developers plenty of room to create another in-depth story for U5.
		The Avatar is likely to try to accept the misdeeds of others in spite of his own views, whereas the Hypocrite would not see tolerance of "unvirtuous behavior" as a good thing.

		Faceless and gender-neutral, the Avatar's attributes were determined by your response to a series of moral dilemmas.
		Origin decided that the Avatar needed a specific appearance, and that appearance can be traced to the cover painting of Ultima VI, which reveals the Avatar as the blonde-haired man who figures prominently in the introduction to Ultima Online and in Ultima: Ascension.
		In the minds of many longtime Ultima fans, identifying this timeless character by a face - and removing your ability to imagine his visage, or project yourself into the role - was a careless mistake on Origin's behalf.

	Virtues of the Avatar
		The concept of the Virtues was a very popular one to fans of the Ultima IV-VI trilogy, so it is of no surprise that a number of players strive to role-play their characters as being on the lifelong Quest of the Avatar, or to at least pay homage to the virtues.
		The Avatar would find no honor in deceiving others, and the player who chooses to role-play as the Avatar should avoid any attempts to scam new players, the bearing false witness against an adversary, nor take advantage of another’s generosity.
		The Avatar would try to help others who have been wronged, and avenging wrongful deaths of others is a good way to develop trust in existing and new friendships between PCs.

		But the Ultimas had these great books that came with them, with history and spells, and little pendants and of course the cloth maps.
		One thing that they did very right with Ultima IX was continuing to make all of those trinkets part of the package when most games have forgotten about that.
		As for the Wayward Avatar, I've got some things I still want to do with it before I retire from Ultima IX, and I figure that people will still be playing the game for a while yet.

		Similar to Ultima VII, Lord British has indicated that approximately the first 3-5% of the game will be a linear tutorial in order to acquaint the player with the game and controls, and then the plot will open to become non-linear.
		Transferring your character of The Avatar was a feature of the older Ultimas (this option was left out from Ultima VII onwards).
		Essentially, there is no "typical" party in Ascension like that which featured in Ultimas before Pagan, but there will be companions who will join the Avatar in his travels to help with specific tasks and who will have their own agendas for joining him.

	Ultima 9 Review
		Ultima had shown glimpses of the moral high ground it would take in the early games, but in Ultima IV: Quest of the Avatar, your regular actions became important.
		The Ultimas kept to their moralistic roots for 5 straight titles (U4-7, including U7 part 2.) At their darkest moments when they needed him most, you, the Avatar would show up to pull the collective Britannian ass out of the fire.
		Here the Avatar is confronted with a world that has been ravaged by the Guardian and is now just recovering.
