Editing Lindsey Baron (section)

==Old And Busted "Good" Lindsey==

A (very) distant scion of House Sivis, she bear no Mark, but has a talent for magic recognized even among her own people. She originally began her studies in the Library of Korranberg, but became disillusioned as a staff member when she was repeatedly passed over for promotions because of her lack of family connections. When her required four years of service to the library were up, she moved to Aundair and successfully earned a place in Arcanix.

It was here that she became fasinated with ice. Watching the crystals form and seeing how she could influence them was her favorite past time, and eventually inspired her thesis on the possible mechanics of Dragonshard formation.

As a young (for a Gnome) grad-student, she first met [[Cassius Du'Crion|Cassius]], [[Ethan Rhefeldt|Ethan]], and [[Koram Earthshaper|Koram]] when Arcanix assigned her to join them and track down and either destroy or imprison Strahd Von Zharovich (see [[Minor Villains|Minor Villains]]). Upon success, she graduated Magna Cum Laude. She was later approached by House Sivis, but turned them down in light of a teaching job at Arcanix, which she left a few years ago to sate the curiosity and wanderlust building in her since her adventure.

When Thelia decided to give up Scavenging to aid [[The Watchmen]], Lindsey followed suit, but has since retired from active duty. She now heads the sizable Library in Caer Shadowfast as well as teaches magic to members of the Watchmen than show interest. She tends towards lengthy expositions about whatever subject is at hand, given to anyone who will listen. 

Outside of class, it's usually just [[Gortuck|Gortuck]] and anyone who couldn't think of a reason to leave. Somewhat suprisingly, she and Gortuck have struck up a relationship based on mutual attraction and a meeting of the intellects.

As Librarian for the Watchmen, she presides over one of the largest collections of rare and unique tomes outside of the Arcane Congress. This, combined with her knowledge, made her a target of [[Lord Shadowspawn]]. Through ''Suggestions'' and enchantments, he was able to get her to research Divine Sparks for him, most specifically who had them and how one could obtain them. Upon completion of this task, Shadowspawn wiped most of her memory of this deed, destroyed or removed the materials involved, and turned her into one of the Nosferatu. How he did so is unknown at the time, but there are indications that she was transformed in a manner similar to that of King Kaius.

After a close call with Gortuck when she awakened to the Blood Frenzy, she has managed to regain herself. How long she can hold out against the hunger is unknown, but the more important question is: How long does she ''want'' to? She knows she is now a monster and can't be trusted, and she may choose death over the more grizly options.


'''Hints for role playing''':
Think Luca from Crono Trigger, with the machine fascination replaced by magic (Ice in particular). Fun loving, retains the miscevious spirit of her race, and knowledgabe.

[[Shadows over Cyre]] or [[Wrath of the Lich Queen]]
