"Everyone's hero. If she isnt yours.. you just dont know her well enough yet." Matthias O'Lachon

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 and was honored to produce a scroll for Desert Winds, Tal Dagore [1] Northern Lights [2] and Westmarch [3]upon their achievement of Kingdom status.

Linden continues to support her squires and friends in the game, but retired in 2013.
