King Coltzan III was a brave and just warrior who governed The Lost Desert with a kind heart and generous soul for many years. His legendary status as a noble defender of The Lost Desert grew as the tales of his heroic deeds spread throughout the land. There isn't a single Sakhmetian alive who has not heard the tale of how Coltzan defeated a savage Monocerous with his bare paws, or of the time Coltzan rescued Princess Lightfoot from the clutches of the nefarious Baron Nehlaki, a story which is recounted in Sakhmet Tales a popular anthology of Sakhmetian folklore.

The King was killed by foul play during a dinner in Usurper in the Royal Palace of Sakhmet on July 9, 2001.. He collapsed after a great feast with five royal guests, and foul play is suspected. Who killed the king is the question one had to answer

It is said that Coltzan's Ghost inhabits Coltzan's Shrine, which is a large obelisk in the Lost Desert. It was released to Neopia on September 3, 2001. Created to pay homage to the Ghost of King Coltzan III. where he can randomly gives out prizes to people who visits (items, neopoints, and Stat raises). You can still read about the unveiling of the shrine.


His ghost is also a boss in the Lost Desert, part 3, of NeoQuest II.
