She has little respect for established institutions and traditions, preferring to carve out her own path through life. She is extremely unscrupulous, but never malicious, and to those she considers her true friends (it takes a very great deal to earn such an honour) she is doggedly loyal. In truth her cheerful, irreverent demeanour is something of a front. She has a strong spiritual side, whole heartedly believing in the philosophy of the Perfect Form and adhering very strongly to her own personal sense of honour. Her own freedom is her dearest possession, and she will never relinquish it, though it may prevent her from ever finding lasting peace or happiness. Description: The face Lin presents to the world changes with the winds and her own fickle moods. Most commonly she appears as a young and attractive human or elven female, and it is this that she feels best represents her. It is by no means constant however, and even within this form the details can change drastically from day to day. In her true form she is a waif-like creature, appearing very frail and willowy, yet given a certain grace and majesty by her long, flowing white hair and the indefinable flame that seems to burn behind her blank white eyes. Background: As long as she can remember Lin has wandered, living by her wits. She was born in Sharn, though she has no idea who her parents were, or even who took care of her for her first few years. She has hazy memories of this time, vague recollections of a kind female face looking down upon her and taking care of her and perhaps some other children, but her first clear memories start a number of years later, when she was old enough to look after herself though not nearly old enough so that she should have had to. She wandered from city to city, making a meagre living from others' unguarded pockets.  In this time she travelled for short periods with a great number of people, but one in particular had an impact on her - the only other Changeling she has ever been close to, a priest of the way of the Perfect Form. The philosophy he espoused spoke deeply to her, giving her existence meaning, and she learned to internalize it and retain it even as she continued to eke out a petty and meaningless existence.  In more recent years she has returned to Sharn. The incident that has most recently defined her existence was a certain evening about a year ago when she decided she would sample the highlife and, impersonating a minor noblewoman, made her way into a certain society soiree. There she met a certain Kaleshtar noble by the name of Koranmalekh, and the two got along famously. For some time she was his lover, and in this time she also made the acquaintance of an elven swordsman he sometimes employed. When, inevitably, Koranmalekh discovered her deception and realised that she was no noblewoman the two parted ways rather awkwardly, and in an act of petty revenge Lin tried to seduce a certain elven swordsman in Koranmalekh's employ at the time. She failed, as he had already got wind of the goings-on between his employer and her and suspected her true intentions, but in the end the encounter ended amicably and the two found they had much in common. Through him Lin also met a Dwarven acquaintance of his, and she has come to suspect from some overheard conversations that the two of them have plans to make an adventuring career. She suspects that they will never get round to it, but if they do she certainly does not intend to be left behind. If they don't... well, maybe she'll do it on her own.</blockquote>
