King Coltzan III

"I shall cower before no evil, and defend the virtue of my people against all enemies. Regardless of the outcome, at least I know that I have fought for a most noble cause." - King Coltzan III

King Coltzan III was a Lupe and the former King of Sakhmet. He was murdered by Princess Sankara during the Usurper! plot. His spirit now resides within Coltzan's Shrine, and his ghost sometimes gives out prizes to Neopets that visit the shrine to pay their respects. King Coltzan is survived by his two daughters, Princess Amira and Princess Vyssa.

King Coltzan was kind, generous, wise, and just. He was also a brave warrior, and songs of his heroic deeds are sung all over the Lost Desert. He ruled over Sakhmet for many years and was loved by all his subjects.

NeoQuest II

Coltzan's Ghost is a mandatory boss in the Lost Desert portion of the game NeoQuest II. He is found in the ruined city of Akhten-Ka. Coltzan's spirit was summoned back from the afterlife and forced to guard the third piece of the Medallion of Wind. After being defeated by Rohane and his party, Coltzan's spirit was freed and Rohane was able to take the third medallion piece. Before fading away, Coltzan's ghost told Rohane that, when combined, the three pieces of the medallion would form a map showing the location of the gem needed to power the medallion.

While it is never explicitly stated, it is mostly likely that Anubits was the one who summoned Coltzan's ghost.
