Sir Drake was a Valorian knight in Ultima IX, whose corpse was found in Destard. The Avatar first heard about the Sir Drake's fateful journey to seal the dungeon Destard from the broken Sir Robin, who had cowardly fled Sir Drake's party, and was now drowning his sorrows at the tavern in Britain. The Avatar learned that Sir Drake had sealed himself within the dungeon itself. Later, the Avatar found Sir Drake's corpse, slain by a daemon deep within the dungeon. Nearby was a book containing the Word of Power, 'Inopia', which allowed the Avatar to exit the dungeon.
