Smith is the often sardonic and occasionally witty talking horse, most often seen dwelling in Iolo's hut, in the popular computer role-playing game series, Ultima. Smith the talking horse was famous for providing so-called clues for the protagonist, which were always delivered one game in the series too late. This inside joke started in Ultima V, since the horse was supposed to leave a vital clue in Ultima IV but this was inadvertently left out of the game.
