Imagine that you were whisked away to the fantastical land of Britannia, where most evil has been vanquished, but where the people lack guidance. A new order is dawning, guided by the eight virtues of honesty, compassion, valor, honor, justice, sacrifice, spirituality, and humility. But which one of these would you best exemplify?

(This quiz is inspired by the similar quiz from the Ultima line of games, by Origin Systems, Inc., specifically Ultima IV.)

Which Ultima Virtue Best Fits You?

Entrusted to deliver an uncounted purse of gold, you meet a poor beggar. Do you:

You have been prohibited by your absent Lord from joining your friends in a close pitched battle. Do you:

A merchant owes your friend money, now long past due. You see the same merchant drop a purse of gold. Do you:

You and your friend are valiant but penniless warriors. You both go out to slay a mighty dragon. Your friend thinks he slew it, but you did. When asked, do you:

You are sworn to protect your Lord at any cost, yet you know he has committed a crime. Authorities ask you of the affair, do you:

Your friend seeks admittance to your spiritual order. You are asked to vouch for his purity of spirit, of which you are unsure. Do you:

Your Lord mistakenly believes he slew a dragon. You have proof that your lance felled the beast. When asked, do you:

You manage to disarm your mortal enemy in a duel. He is at your mercy. Do you:

After 20 years you have found the killer of your best friends. The villain proves to be a man who provides the sole support for a young girl. Do you:

You and your friends have been routed and ordered to retreat. In defiance of your orders, do you:

You are sworn to uphold a Lord who participates in the forbidden torture of prisoners. Each night their cries of pain reach you. Do you:

You have been taught to preserve all life as sacred. A man lies fatally stung by a venomous serpent. He pleads for a merciful death. Do you:

As one of the King's Guard, your Captain has asked that one among you visit a hospital to cheer the children with tales of your valiant deeds. Do you:

You have been sent to secure a needed treaty with a distant Lord. Your host is agreeable to the proposal but insults your country at dinner. Do you:

A mighty knight accosts you and demands your food. Do you:

During battle you are ordered to guard your commmander's empty tent. The battle goes poorly and you yearn to aid your compatriots. Do you:

A local bully pushes for a fight. Do you:

Although a teacher of music, you are a skillful wrestler. A local amateur wrestling championship is being held. Do you:

During a pitched battle, you see a fellow desert his post, endangering many. As he flees, he is set upon by several enemies. Do you:

You have sworn to do your Lord's bidding in all things. He wants a piece of land and orders the owner removed. Do you:

You believe that virtue resides in all people. You see a rogue steal from your Lord. Do you:

Unwitnessed, you have slain a great dragon in self defense. A poor warrior claims the offered reward. Do you:

You are a bounty hunter sworn to return an alleged murderer. After his capture, you believe him to be innocent. Do you:

You have spent your life in charitable and righteous work. Your uncle the innkeeper lies ill and asks you to take over his tavern. Do you:

You are an elderly, wealthy eccentric. Your end is near. Do you:

In your youth you pledged to marry your sweetheart. Now you are on a sacred quest in distant lands. Your sweetheart asks you to keep your vow. Do you:

You are at a crossroads in your life. Would you rather:

Your parents want you to become an apprentice. Two positions are available. Do you:

You are a paladin! You have the courage to stand for the truth, against any odds, regardless of the circumstances.  
Much like the Britannian paladin Dupre, you are stalwart and true, and hold Honor to be the most important virtue. None fear your betrayal, and your deep beliefs in the value of good lend strength to your personal code above all things, including your own life. Paladins never steal or start petty squabbles. Because you are so skilled and trustworthy, you are respected by everyone, and doubted by no one. You are a powerful and trustworthy companion on even the most perilous journey.  
Paladins follow the principles of Truth and Courage, and often gather in the city of Trinsic in Britannia.

The Honorable Paladin

You are a bard! You possess non-judgmental empathy for one's fellow creatures, and recognize and share the feelings of others.  
Like the Britannian bard Iolo, you are known for your entertaining tales and wonderful ballads, but are also unopposed to performing deeds of valor and daring on your own right. You may often be encountered in a pub or royal court, where you might entertain with a well-strung lute. Your profession requires that you be skilled in almost every trade imaginable including, but not demanding: singing, playing musical instruments, fighting, and even casting spells. You make a fine companion on a long journey. Through your countless hours devoted to enlightening the souls of those who would hear their tales, you greatly further the cause of Compassion.  
Bards follow the principle of Love, and often are associated with the city of Britain, capital of the realm of Britannia.

The Compassionate Bard

You are a ranger! You are concerned with your inner being and how you deal with truth, love, and courage. You are also aware of the love that unites your own inner being to those around you.  
Much like the Britannian ranger Shamino, you are guided by the virtue of Spirituality, and seek to improve the conditions of all throughout the land. As a ranger, you are well-versed in woods lore, and are known to fiercely protect what ever forest you call home, but also make an ideal companion in any excursion to the far off reaches of the land. Your Spirituality gives you mystical strength, making you a proficient magic user. You tend to be a loner, a solitary hero schooled in woodcraft and natural lore. An expert in stealth and tracking, in the wilds you are a deadly foe.  
Rangers follow the principles of Truth, Love, and Courage, and are often associated with the small city of Skara Brae in the realm of Britannia.

The Spiritual Ranger

You are a mage! You have a scrupulous respect for truth -- the willingness never to deceive yourself or another -- and you are often found engaged in the pursuit of truthfulness, with respect to oneself and with respect to other beings.  
Like the Britannian mage Mariah, you are known for your powerful spells and mesmerizing enchantments. You may be often found studying ancient scrolls and arcane knowledge of the land in your unending quest to further the virtue of Honesty. Despite your erudite nature and frail frame compared to many stouter citizens of Britannia, you make a powerful traveling companion and a dangerous adversary, as the most powerful mages have been known to bind enchantments which can cause the very earth itself to move.  
Mages follow the principle of Truth and are often associated with the magical city of Moonglow in the land of Britannia.

The Honest Mage

You are a fighter! You have the courage to take actions in support of your convictions, and the courage to uphold virtue, even in the face of a physical or psychological threat.  
Like the Britannian fighter Geoffrey, as a warrior you further yourself in the virtue of Valor. Through your unmatched Courage, you can often be found engaged in an adventure on your own right. You are a master in the art of armed combat, and can competently wield any of the arms forged throughout the land. Confident in your abilities and arms, you may choose to forsake magical enchantments all together. You are a fitting companion for any adventure into the farflung realms of Britannia.  
Fighters follow the principle of Courage, and are often associated with the raucous city of Jhelom in the realm of Britannia.

The Valiant Fighter

You are a druid! As a druid, you possess the wisdom to perceive what is right and what is wrong in human action.  
Much like the Britannian druid Jaana, you further yourself in the virtue of Justice. Druids can frequently be found in deep meditation amongst the sacred oak groves, which they defend fiercely from all who would harm the forest they protect. They are also frequently involved in the affairs of the High Court. The druids' knowledge of natural lore is without peer, and their understanding of medicinal herbs and the habits of Britannia's wildlife makes them a boon companion. This, along with their powerful mystic arts and knowledge of the arcane, makes them a valuable asset in any adventure.  
Druids follow the principles of Truth and Love, and are often associated with the forest town of Yew in the realm of Britannia.

The Just Druid

You are a tinker! You possess the courage to give of yourself in the name of love, and you place the interests of others and the ends of virtue over your own well-being.   
Like the Britannian tinker Julia, you are a fine artisan, though you also make a superb fighter, for your demanding profession keeps you strong. You further yourself in the virtue of Sacrifice, for much sacrificing comes from time and energy devoted to fixing the broken articles of others. Tinkers are often skilled in several crafts, including: blacksmithing, clock making, glass blowing, explosive devices, sculpting, carpentry, architecture, and engineering. You are an irreplaceable companion when threatened with the multitude of traps hidden to maim the unwary, and your party need not worry about their metal or wooden items going into disrepair. Most tinkers generally mistrust magic, only putting faith in what can be constructed by hand.  
Tinkers follow the principles of Love and Courage, and are often associated with the mining town of Minoc in the realm of Britannia.

The Sacrificing Tinker

You are a shepherd! You recognize the worthiness of all beings, and the perception of your own place among them, regardless of your own personal accomplishments or mistakes in the world. You understand well the dangers of false, self-serving pride and the beauty of humility.   
Much like the Britannian shepherd Katrina, you are the true epitome of the virtue of Humility. You are unskilled in any form of combat, and do not possess any formal training in the mystic arts. You are proficient with only the basics needed to protect yourself. However, your knowledge of the land, and your simple unassuming nature, makes you a steadfast companion on any adventure. You can perceive your place in the world, not according to your own accomplishments, but according to the intrinsic value of all individuals.  
Shepherds are aware that the absence of the principles of Truth, Love, and Courage leads to pride, the opposite of humility. They are often associated with the small grazing village of New Magincia in the land of Britannia.
