| − | In [[1996]] Linden fell into Amtgard when her battletech group, the [[CHD]], became so large that they could no longer play together. The group was composed of high school students from Round Rock, Texas. After talking a bit the kids began looking for an alternative game. The GM of the group, [[Breetai]] had once played Amtgard at a [[park]] called [[Drakenroc]], so the dragoons decided to give the park a chance and went out to it's old location one weekend with their sock covered [[PVC]] [[weapons]] spoiling for a fight. But the park wasn't there any more, having folded due to lack of attendance. And so the third iteration of the park known as 'Drakenroc' was born.

| − | In [[1999]], after several years in the CK Linden returned to her home state of [[Louisiana]] and played briefly at the [[Duchy]] of [[Crimson Moon]] under the [[Wetlands]]. Spending barely a year abroad, Linden returned to [[Texas]] and joined the [[Duchy]] of [[Tori-Mar]] where she played until it was disbanded in May of [[2007]]. The shire has since reopened. She is now a member of [[Nocturnis]] in Cedar Park,Tx.

| − | Linden’s first love was fighting, but over time she found that in order to have people to fight; the game has to function properly. So in [[1997]] she began holding local office. Over the next few years Linden spent most of her time in some position or another. This being a convenient and still challenging way to be involved while she was assembling her brood of three children; [[Quinn]], [[Nicoli]] and [[Genevieve]]. She also dabbled in event management, running several kingdom events, demos, and classes. With her Co-Autocrat [[Chango]] she ran [[Spring War 2006]] : Yooks Vs the Zooks, based on a popular Dr. Suess book on the escalation of warfare. The event drew more that 500 people, and put the CK back in the black, and reconfirmed Spring War's status as the largest Amtgard event.

| − | During her reign as monarch of the Celestial Kingdom, Linden went to war with the [[Wetlands]] in the person of the zombie king [[Slyddur]]. Raids were held back and forth, at [[Murky Waters]] and [[Mordengarrd]] culminating in a battle at the following Spring War.

| − | | |
| − | In the later part of her career she spent her time up keeping the ORK and wiki, and coordinating the yearly amtgard audit. She also enjoyed making garb and award documents for players across the country. As a personal challenge she sought commissions from each of the Kingdom, and in [[2012]] after making more than 70 individual awards she successfully made an award for each of them. Linden was honored to produce a [http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u214/Lindenpublic/Art%20stuff/Scroll/IMG_7648-1.jpg scroll] for [[Desert Winds]], [[Tal Dagore]] [http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1551995392422&set=a.1551987472224.2074703.1011254883&type=3&theater] [[Northern Lights]] [http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.3796795231015.2141086.1011254883&type=3,] and [[Westmarch]] [https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10200728758673946&set=a.1551987472224.2074703.1011254883&type=3&theater]upon their achievement of [[Kingdom]] status.
