Fridigazzi in Ultima VII

Fridigazzi in Ultima VII Part II: Serpent Isle is an adept (powerful mage). She is the consort of the MageLord Filbercio. In the game, Fridigazzi seduces the player’s avatar regardless of their gender. If the player rejects her advances, she casts a spell to remove their clothes and does the “Dance of Passion, which no mortal can resist!” At this moment, Filbercio enters the room and becomes enraged. He then transports the avatar to his court for trial. As one is only aware of Fridigazzi’s bisexuality if one plays the game as both a male and female avatar, and because it is possible that this was a default male storyline that simply wasn’t changed for a female avatar selection, we are classifying this as “Bisexual-Vague.”
