Lord British
Lord British, whose full name is Lord Cantabrigian British,〔Chuckles reveals Lord British's name as "Lord Cantabrigian British" in ''Ultima V'' when he welcomes the Avatar at the entrance of Castle Britannia.〕 is the name of the fictional ruler of Britannia, a kingdom in the fictional world of Sosaria, created by Richard Garriott for his computer game series ''Ultima''. Garriott himself is also known to his fans as Lord British.〔(EL33TONLINE: News – Richard Garriott in space! ) Retrieved 2008-10-15〕
==Origin of the name==
''Ultima'' series creator Richard Garriott acquired the nickname "British" as a teenager from friends at computer camp who claimed his greeting to them, "hello", was distinct from the usual American "hi". The Lord title was later added when he played the dungeon master in Dungeons & Dragons games.
When his first published game Akalabeth was released, the president of the publishing company suggested he use the name in the game, since it was more memorable than his real name.〔(Richard Garriott's Facebook page )〕
Garriott released ''Akalabeth: World of Doom'' and all other Ultima games under the pseudonym, and occasionally appeared in ''Ultima Online'' playing as Lord British and meting out justice to his players. He is still known as Lord British. Garriott retained the trademark rights to the name Lord British with its associated symbols, and the character appears in his game, ''Tabula Rasa'' as General British.
