Fictional Biography
Lina was born in the fictional village of Zephillia. Her older sister, Luna Inverse, was the darling of both her parents and the town, excelling in martial studies and quickly beginning to make a name for herself. However, Lina set up a magical device that projected an image over the entire town of her sister while she was in the bath. Lina quickly left from the town and has been terrified of even the mention of her sister ever since. (In an episode of Slayers Try, Lina built an entire pyramid complete with tunnels and a sarcophagus to hide from a letter sent by Luna.) While attending a magic academy, Lina was completely embarrassed by the color she was awarded, and attempts to keep it a closely guarded secret that her entire title is actually "Lina the Pink" Lina meets a sorceress named Naga the Serpent, whom she travels with. During that time, Lina earns her reputation and nicknames such as "Bandit Killer" and "Dragon Spooker"; someone who tracks bandits and thieves and steals their ill-gotten gains for their own use. In the beginning of the series, Lina meets a swordsman named Gourry Gabriev and a chimera named Zelgadis Greywords. Lina encounters and destroys a part of the Mazoku Lord Shabranigdu with her Giga Slave technique. She later befriends a princess named Amelia Wil Tesla Seyruun and the priestess Sylphiel Nels Lahda. She later meets Xellos, who is looking for the Claire Bible (Japanese: 異界黙示録クレア・バイブル Kanji translation: Spirit World Book of Revelations Romaji: kurea baiburu), but gets caught between Chaos Dragon Gaav and Hellmaster Phibrizzo. In the anime-exclusive series Slayers Try, she is recruited by the dragoness Filia Ul Copt to save the world. In Slayers Revolution Lina gets arrested on false pretense which later comes leading her on a journey against another incarnation of the Demon Beast Zannafar.

Famous quotes containing the words fictional and/or biography:
“It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.... This, in turn, means that our statesmen, our businessmen, our everyman must take on a science fictional way of thinking.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“In how few words, for instance, the Greeks would have told the story of Abelard and Heloise, making but a sentence of our classical dictionary.... We moderns, on the other hand, collect only the raw materials of biography and history, “memoirs to serve for a history,” which is but materials to serve for a mythology.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
