  1. Ulm
    Dalesman, founder and lord of Ulmsport. Called the Horn-handed. Father of Ulric. Ulm looted treasure from a place of the Old Ones. He and all the men with him on that expedition took sick, and most of them died. Ulm chartered the sea-rovers who founded Ulmsport, apparently merchants who needed a port-city of their own. (THE CRYSTAL GRYPHON).


  2. Ulm, House of
    Lords of Ulmsdale, establied by Ulm, who was apparently a younger son of an older noble house. Their emblem was the Gryphon on a green field. (THE CRYSTAL GRYPHON).


  3. Ulmsdale
    Dale in northern High Hallack, north of Vestdale, east of Fyndale, south of Flathingdale. Ulmsdale was first settled by Ulm, grandfather of Kerovan. The chief city was Ulmsport, which became a major trading center. Ulmsdale was one of the ports visited by Alizonder ships prior to the war, and a Wise Woman of Ulmsdale discovered the Alizonders were planning to invade High Hallack. During the war with Alizon, Ulmsdale was invaded and Tephana tried unsuccessfully to defend it with Dark power. Ulmsdale may have been resettled after the war with Alizaon. (THE CRYSTAL GRYPHON, SPELL OF THE WITCH WORLD).


  4. Ulmsdale Keep
    fortress in Ulmsdale, home of the Lords of Ulmsdale. (THE CRYSTAL GRYPHON).


  5. Ulmsport
    City of northern High Hallack, a major seaport, capitol of Ulmsdale. Founded by Ulm approximately fifty years before the war with Alizon. Ulmsport was destroyed during the war with Alizon. Before the war Ulmsport hosted fairs. The lord of Marchpoint (Dairine's father) met his wife at a fair in Ulmsport. Ulmsport may have been rebuilt after the war. (SPELL OF THE WITCH WORLD, THE CRYSTAL GRYPHON).


  6. Ulric
    Dalesman of High Hallack, lord of Ulmsdale. He was the son of Ulm. All of Ulric's children by his first two wives were either stillborn or died young. Ulric finally married Tephana of Paltendale about nineteen years before the war with Alizon (he was middle-aged). Their son was Kerovan, named for an ancestor or relative of a generation prior to Ulm's coming to Ulmsdale. Ulric tried to warn the lords of High Hallack of the impending invasion but he was unable to marshal sufficient forces to defeat the initial onsloughts of the Alizonders. Ulric was killed during the invasion. (THE CRYSTAL GRYPHON).

  10. Uppsdale
    Dale in northern High Hallack. About 40 years before the war with Alizon Uppsdale had an active amber mine, but a rock slide closed it. The mine was then passed through the daughters of the House of Uppsdale as a dowry, although it seemed to have no value. Hylle the Usurper from Quayth married Ysmay and re-opened the mine. See also Savron, Ysmay, Hylle, Quayth, Langsdale. (SPELL OF THE WITCH WORLD).
