  Verina - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aelia Verina (died 484) was the wife of Byzantine emperor Leo I, and the mother-in-law of Zeno, who was married to her daughter Ariadne.
Verina then conspired against Illus, who discovered the plot, and with Zeno's consent had her imprisoned.
This led to another conspiracy led by Verina's son Marcian (a grandson of the emperor Marcian), but Marcian was defeated and exiled.

 Roman Emperors - DIR Verina
Verina, it seems, had been led by Illus to suppose that if she could remove Zeno from the city, then Patricius could seize the throne for himself.
A statue of her is noted, erected during the reign of Basiliscus (ch.29), and in the final chapter of the work (ch.89) we learn that the empress had once bewitched the island of Kranos, causing it to be abandoned for centuries.
There is no reason to suppose that Verina instigated the coup, as John claims; but she could furnish Marcian with a further ground for removing Zeno.

 Roman Emperors - DIR Zeno
In January 475, less than three months after his sole rule began, Zeno was faced by a conspiracy of Verina (Leo's wife) and her brother Basiliscus, supported by the Isaurian Illus and the Goth Theoderic Strabo.
In 478, Verina, Zeno's mother-in-law, upset at Illus' betrayal of her brother, Basiliscus, promoted an attempt on Illus' life.
But even in prison, Verina continued to act against Zeno, encouraging her other son-in-law Marcian to revolt in 479, a revolt swiftly and decisively quashed by Illus.

As the weakness of Zeno's character made him jealous of all persons of influence and talent, it is not wonderful that the commanding position and popular favour of Illus rendered him an object of suspicion, and that the emperor in various ways sought to rid himself of him.
At any rate Verina's attempt was defeated, and Zeno, equally jealous of her and of Illus, banished her at the instance of the latter, and confined her in the fort of Papurius.
Candidus places the banishment of Verina before the revolt of Marcian, and Theodore Lector assigns as the cause of it her share in the revolt of Basiliscus.
