Lauren

Rolande (or by some, Lauren) is a non-playable character from Dead or Alive 2. She happens to be Leon's loss lover who has mysteriously died. She is a female thief of the Silk Road, who died in his arms saying, "The man I love is the strongest man in the world." She appears in Leon's story mode in DOA2.

Trivia

 * It is debatable as to whether the name of Leon's lover is "Lauren" or "Rolande." Due to phonetic difficulties that frequently occur among Japanese voice actors, "Lauren" would undoubtedly be pronounced incorrectly. In the PS2 version of Dead or Alive 2, the English voice actor clearly named the dying woman as "Rolande," however, in Dead or Alive Ultimate, the subtitles clearly state the woman's name as "Lauren," implying that the name "Rolande" is simply a common Japanese mispronounciation that was accidentally foisted on the translators. This makes sense, as Rolande is typically considered a masculine name.
