Random Facts About Lina From Both Canons And My Fanon
- Lina's a badass singer. This was inspired by someone pimping Slayers singles. Slayes is to this day the only anime to make multiple singles that I really like, and while most of the characters had some good stuff (Zel especially) Lina was most emphatically the best. TO SALUTE THIS? Lina tops karaoke. However she doesn't ACTUALLY sing that often, but if the opportunity arrives? She's good, teh end.
- Lina's 5'1"
- Lina's most powerful spell is called the Giga Slave, it draws on the power of The Lord of Nightmares (re: the creator of all things, re: god) and is capable of destroying the world if she casts it wrong. The spell gets sealed in canon, and while I haven't read that far INTO canon, I'm going assume that's already been done anyway. So NOW her most powerfuls spell is the Laguna Blade, which also draws from the Lord of Nightmares but is much more controlled than the Giga Slave, but also takes up more power due to the amount of control required to crush the power of L-sama into a wieldable blade.
- In the Slayers 'Verse master sorceror/esses are acknowledged by their community by given color titles: Damia the Blue, Rezo the Red Priest etc. When Lina made Master (I think she was 12 or 13?) she was given the title Lina the Pink. She turned it down because Sorcerors are expected to wear robes the colors of their titles to identify them and hell if she was going to wear pink every day for the rest of her life.
- Lina has an older sister named Luna. Luna is waaaaaay more powerful than Lina. She's a Knight of Ceified the Dragon God. She works as a waitress in their hometown. Lina is terrified of her because before she left she kiiiiinda sold what amounts to naked photos of her sister and her sister was mad and uh. Lina doesn't want to go back and face the consequences. As I recall, this is what started Lina off on her adventures to begin with.
- Lina has canonically time traveled.
- Lina doesn't know Naga the Serpant is Amelia's older sister. ...infact, I can't even remember how WE know that. It's something I found out in fandom years ago but it never appears in the movies or anime that I've seen. It's probably mentioned off handedly in one of the novels that hasn't been translated yet.
- Lina thinks in terms of food. A lot. It's hilarious. When walking through a room in which fifty or so mercenaries have been slaughtered brutally she thinks in terms of things like "blood stew" and "guts soup".
- Lina isn't aware of ever having accidentally killed someone with her random displays of magic prowess. She IS aware of incurring MASSIVE PROPERTY DAMAGE and is outlawed in more than one Kingdom because of this. But by some amazing luck, no innocent bystander is ever caught up in the blast.
- She will mess your shit up if you damage or disrespect money.
- She will mess your shit up if you talk about her boobs being small. How polite/joking/rude you are about it determines if she'll merely slipper-thwack you or if she'll set you on fire.
- Lina is not capable of putting a good, still living person 'out of their misery'. Where as she will casually off anyone bad without issue.
- ALL of Lina's spells require an incantation. But it's canon for her to whisper them quickly and quietly. With most of her easier spells you won't even notice she's doing it unless you're a magic type and know to listen for that kinda thing.
- Lina's not a very picky eater. While better food is certainly ... better she'll eat more or less anything without complaint as long as there is a lot of it.
- Lina actually avoids fights with everyone but bandits. It irritates her when people start fighting around her in inns because A) it usually get blamed on her (it's usually her fault) and B) it interrupts her meal. But if someone approaches her looking for a fight she'll usually take them up on it unless she has something immediately better to do.
- She doesn't care if you hit on her. This applies to everyone, man or woman, whatever age. She's gotten pretty much all of it to SOME degree. The only think she hasn't gotten is a man that honestly is in love with her. But guys like Roy who are just the type to flirt harmlessly? She's gotten that. Guys who are smarmier and with a side of evil? She's gotten that. Guys with rotten teeth who talk about tying her up and having their way with her? Yaaaah she's gotten that too. None of it really impresses her, but it is a little flattering when the guy doing it isn't a complete sleaze.
- Lina wears four pendant type things. One at each wrist, one at her neck and one at her waist. These represent each of the four demon lords; Ruby Eye, Death Fog... and two other guys. In the anime they're represented as red gems but I think they're each supposed to be a different color. Anyway, these allow her to, with a spell, temporarily increase her magic capacity by... a lot. She conned Xelloss for them.
- And overall her outfit is all very sorceress-y. Her sword has gems studded into the handle, her shoulder guards too, her clothing has runes sewn/etched/enchanted into the trim. Basically if she's wearing it you can assume it has some magical something on it. As I recall, her headband on it has a strong enough enchantment on it that she can take an arrow to the forehead without getting hurt.
- Lina can't use her magic when she's having her period. While technically her period is very regular, I'm sure I'll never keep it figured out exactly. Thus I can say she's having her period whenever I feel like it.
