Sara Lance

"Laurel's gonna kill me. Oh, she's so gonna kill me."

- Sara to Oliver Queen

Sara Lance (1987—2007)  was the daughter of Quentin Lance, and Dinah Lance, and the younger sister of Laurel Lance, and the former girlfriend of Oliver Queen. She died aboard the Queen's Gambit when the ship went down, a fact which her father never forgave Oliver for. But in "Dead to Rights" Laurel's mother came to her apartment telling her that she "may be alive." However, in Salvation, it is revealed that Sara is indeed dead after a lead that her mother was following up fell through.

Sara was a member of the Lance family.

Earlier life
During her high school years, Sara was bullied by some of her classmates because she was stealing one of her classmate's boyfriends. the often occurrences of her getting bullied caused behavior issues from Sara, and her grades to drop. this led to her father teaching her and Laurel how to defend themselves.

Voyage on the Queen's Gambit and ultimate death
In late 2007, despite her mother's wishes, Sara went on the Queen's Gambit with Oliver Queen. During their sail at sea, the ship fatefully sank, along with Sara. Her remains were never recovered so the rest of her family buried a empty casket after being declared legally dead.

Personality
Sara seems to have been a person who "just couldn't stay out of trouble." She made unwise, oftentimes selfish decisions such as pursuing a boy with a girlfriend while in highschool, provoking physical attacks from his girlfriend and her friends in retaliation. She apparently got in a fair bit of trouble as a teenager, including one incidence of shoplifting that her father made go away and she had an affair with her sister's boyfriend, which ultimately led to her death when she drowned on the Queen's Gambit.
