Syria

Syria is a fighter from southern Britannia, living in Jhelom.

When first meeting her in Ultima VII, Syria revealed herself to be more of a bully than a true fighter, being not very friendly to the Avatar. She felt that her fighting powers made her something better and spoke in total admiration about the Library of Scars, of which she was a member of, and its master DeSnel. Her bully tendencies also showed themselved when she, Timmons and Volkes didn't even want to hear from Sprellic what really had happened with the honor banner (it was stolen by Sullivan) and were just aiming to kill him. After Syria got duped by the Avatar with a fake banner, she never dared to talk about the matter again, dishonor waiting should she reveal the banner was fake.

After DeSnel's death, she took over the Library of Scars, her belief in the fighting arts shaken by his betrayal. She got better but still had some bully tendencies left, as shown when she spoke proudly of how Sprellic left town after Timmons had beaten him up for no reason at all.

After being locked in with the others in Ultima Underworld II, she revealed to the Avatar that she felt like an anachronsim, that the world had changed while the fighters of Jhelom didn't. However, she was still a powerful fighter, training the Avatar with the sword and even won a duel against Geoffrey. In the end, she was freed with all the others from the trap of the Guardian.
