Laurianna

Laurianna is a powerful mage found in the Keyring Mod for Ultima VII.

Description
A mage of extraordinary natural ability, Laurianna was born under the disturbance of the Guardian's Tetrahedron Generator, and was thus rendered near insane from birth by its perturbance. Her father Zauriel had kept her powers in check as she grew into adulthood, for the uncontrolled release of her magics were capable of rending devastation throughout Britannia. After many years of research, he had at last devised a potion which would reduce her magical abilities and render her finally sane, but just before its completion, he had been attacked by the mad mage Laundo, who wished to steal her powers for his own. The mage had cleverly devised a necklace capable of destroying Laurianna if any magic user powerful enough to defeat Laundo, such as Zauriel himself, approached.

The Avatar managed to defeat Laundo with Zauriel's assistance, and found the disturbed young woman rooted into the earth from Laundo's magic, unable to move. Harassed by invisible demons, the young woman was unstable, rapidly fluctuating between extreme emotions of anger, frustration, and child-like glee. Even in this state, her extraordinary powers were readily evident. If the Avatar gave her Zauriel's potion, the young woman immediately returned to her senses, and could use the blackrock provided by the hero to remove her necklace, immediately freeing her from Laundo's spell which held her in place. She explained after this that her father was capable of seeing past, present, and future, and that he had accurately predicted the Avatar's role in her rescue, and that her kidnapping had been necessary for her final cure.
