Infobox • Talk page

William is a cape merchant who sells team capes. He sells the capes with the box symbol, numbers 1, 11, 21, 31, and 41. He also acts as a bank on members' worlds. He can usually be found just north of the Red Dragon Isle, but has a large wander radius and can stumble into the "Deep" Wilderness if the gates were opened and he walked through them, being found underneath and the entire area east of the Scorpion Pit. If those gates were not opened, they he may occasionally wander around the Demonic Ruins. He provides bank service for members.
