Lap-Lem is a wingless gargoyle miner in the Vesper Mines in Ultima VII. Lap-Lem, when the Avatar engaged him in conversation, revealed that he was the last gargoyle working in the mines after Anmanivas had quit, and that he regretted that Anmanivas and his brother Foranamo were now giving themselves over to alcohol. Lap-Lem admitted that he had considered quitting as well, but that he needed the income to survive. He was, like many gargoyles, nervous about the strong racial tensions in Vesper, worrying about an escalation to violence between the two races.
