Lindsey Baron
Lindsey Baron
NG Female Gnome
Wizard 5/Elemental Savant (Cold) 3
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, Ethan, and Koram when Arcanix assigned her to join them and track down and either destroy or imprison Strahd Von Zharovich (see 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 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.
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.
