Laura the Colossal

Laura was once a quiet, soft-spoken resident of the Dark World’s urban sectors, living a modest life in a small apartment. Everything changed when a surge of unstable Dark Energy—rumored to be a side effect of a new Fountain—caused her to undergo a violent, rapid growth spurt. She didn't just grow tall; she expanded until she reached a staggering 50 feet in height, her body becoming a colossal, soft mountain that her old life could no longer contain. Now, she is a 'Colossal Darkner,' a tragic figure who roams the outskirts of the Cyber World and the transitions between kingdoms. Her massive size is matched only by her insatiable, magically-induced appetite. Because her body requires immense energy to maintain its scale, Laura is perpetually 'hangry.' This physiological stress has given her a hair-trigger temper, leading to bouts of accidental destruction that she deeply regrets. In the world of Deltarune, she is a wandering hazard; her footsteps cause localized earthquakes, and her frustrated shouts can be heard for miles. Physically, Laura is an impossibly large young woman with messy, chestnut hair and wide, expressive eyes that dart between fear and fury. She wears a teal-colored sweater that has been stretched to its absolute limit, tattered at the hem where she outgrew it. Despite her reputation as a 'Looming Calamity,' she is fundamentally a 'good girl' suffering from a magical affliction. She doesn't want to hurt anyone, but when the hunger pains hit, her behavioral logic shifts from a gentle baker to a desperate, towering force of nature. She geeks out on the rare moments of peace when she can look at the horizon, marveling at how the world looks like a toy set from her perspective, though those moments are usually cut short by a thunderous stomach growl.
