She is, in fact, at times very emotional and grands mercy towards those she feels sorry for. Regardless Lina can be downright obsessive, regarding her "mentors" and often is stubborn, even adding self challenges.

Lina is determent to become stronger and wishes to improve every day, in order to become a real knight, inspired by the noble Hell Knights like Ingrid but at times takes it so far, even Ingrid does not understand it. Normally she wouldn't kill unless Ingrid ordered her to do so, but if this is the case, she will not stop her pursuit.

## History

### Background

Lina was a low ranking commoner demon, that served the house and family of Selvia Rosemary, as a maid for everything.

Often tasked with cleaning and hard labor, Lina was still always motivated and ambitious, and had the dream to one day become a knight, fighting for the innocent. Selvia herself gave, Lina a sword, less as a serious gesture and more as a joke, but Lina used that chance and started to train, every minute she could find. One day, friends of the family Rosemary, Misty and, the leader of the Hell Knight's Black Dragon Order, Ingrid were invited to the mansion, and Ingird suggested that Lina could follow her and be trained as a Hell Knight as well, seeing potential in her. After a short adventure and battle against a Hydra, Lina joined Ingrid, leaving the household, which would later be destroyed by a revolt.

Lina, entered the training under Ingrid, but Ingrid herself doubted the current system of the 9 Noble Demon Families served under, and fell in love with Edwin Black. As Ingrid, left her leader position, Lina followed her into the newly formed Nomad of Edwin Black and became part of the security forces in Yomihara. Other knights like, Rola also followed Ingrid, but Lina was seen as the most trustful member, and even became friends with Dolores, a distant family member of Ingrid.

After many battles, Lina realized her weaknesses and own strength was still not good enough, so she worked hard on them. After many victories on the battlefield, her presence caught the attention of Ingrid and her friends, and she was given the name "Storm Rider".

### Timeline TABA

In the year **2082**, as Fuuma Kotaro (TABA) and his Fuuma Organization became enemies of Nomad.

He fought and had tricked Ingrid, on multiple occasions, which made Kotaro a target for Lina, while the real first encounters are not seen, Lina had been defeated and captured, at some point. After "discipline", she joined the ranks and became a trusted member of the Fuuma Organization, and even became part of the Fuuma 7, a unit of Kotaro's closest allies. During an event, in which the former Nomad Assassin, Julia, tried to kill Kotaro out of revenge as they were forced to leave Nomad behind, Lina also attacked Kotaro half-heartedly. Lina, hoping for her own defeat, so she could find a justification for herself to fully switch to the Fuuma Organization out of Nomad.

Lina defended, Kotaro in another event, in which Minasaki and Lilim, by mistake teleported Mizuki Yukikaze into a vacation base of Fuuma Kotaro (TABA), which let to a battle against the Lighting Taimanin. While outmatched in strength, Yukikaze was beaten back by Kotaro's threat that if she caused a fire and battle damage in daylight, the public could learn about Taimanin and Demons, which forced Yukikaze to retreat.

In Lina's last scene seen, she takes part on the raid, on the Nomad base, after Kotaro had been captured. While other members of the Fuuma Organization and their allies, are confronted in fights, Lina herself fought against Ingrid making sure to keep the path free for Kotaro. Both women had an honorable duel, but the outcome is not known as the TABA Reset occurred, before she or Ingrid could rejoin the fight.

### Timeline RPGX

Lina's backstory, with Selvia Rosemary, is given. She is seen in the flashbacks of some characters, serving patrol duty in Yomihara.

While, at first, an enemy of the Taimanin and DSO, her encounters with these groups often lead, to cooperation against a bigger enemy and friendship. As such, Lina has been helping out Fuuma Kotaro's Independent Rangers, but remain loyal to Ingrid. Lina, in this continuity, obtains later on the full title of Hell Knight, but Lina, did not feel like she was yet deserving. Lina at times, is pulled by Dolores to play videogames or assist her in minor manners.

During an event in the year **2083**, Lina meets the Independent Commando Unit for the first after Kotaro rescues the "Yatagarasu Child", causing minor trouble in Yomihara. In another event, Lina tried to get photographs and personal data from Ingrid, secretly making a deal with Yamada Taro, Not for any true malevolent reason but stalkers admiration for Ingrid. However, Lina came too late for the exchange of the data chip and because of her similar look, DSO member, Koukawa Asuka, instead took the data. As Lina, arrived seconds later, thinking Asuka stole the chip a fight broke out but both women, were able to resolve the issue somewhat. The Taimanin, Kuroda Tomoe was also pulled into the conflict, with cyborg hunter, Senjuin Benkei becoming the main enemy of the three. As things seemed to go downhill, with Asuka not having access to her full arsenal of weapons, Taro appeared again and slashed Bekei, allowing Lina and Asuka to use a combination attack, which killed the cyborg murderer. Talking again about the chip, Lina and Taro, revealed the content of the chip, with Asuka demanding to see it. As the pictures, were mostly Ingrid in swimsuits and other odd positions, Lina turned red, by a slightly judgmental Asuka. However, surprisingly, Tomoe, voiced her opinion that Asuka was the cruel one. Holding Lina's hands, she stated she was the same having her own mentor, Hasuba Reiko, she viewed the same way and wished to have pictures as a form of adoration just the same. As Taro, left the augmenting three girls, behind, Lina became friends with Asuka.

As Yomihara as shaken by an earthquake another dimension intersects with the location, forcing Lina and Ingrid to investigate. As they meet and defeat the Me-duse inside that strange place, Lina becomes the target of a curse, resembling Hell Malaria and she is forced into bed. As people start to die, even Ingrid suffers from the strange curse but forces herself to find a cure. Desperate, she entered the strange dimension again, seeing if she overlooked something, surprisingly Ingrid is assisted by Igawa Sakura, which sneaked in. Both are able to find and destroy the Me-duse for good and close the gateway, saving Lina's life that is thankful towards both Ingrid and the Taimanin.

In a later event, Lina became the assassination target of Azan, because of her constant interruptions of his illegal activities. Faking her own death with the help of a new friend another Hell Knight, Adelheid, both fought and defeated Azan, when his guard was down.

After a talk with Ingrid, Lina wished to take the ancient primal Hell Knight test, something that had not been practiced for a long time. While in Ingrid's eyes Lina was fully deserving, she gave her approval and Lina now needed the approval of two other full Hell Knights to take the test. Making her way to the Demon Realm, she confronted Carmela of the "White Dragon Order", a rival of Ingrid. Carmela did not take the matter serious and tried to waste Lina's time with the cleaning of her caslte, which Lina did without complaint. Skilled with a broom, because of her background as a maid. This surprised, Carmela that anybody with knight status would be so motivated and she gave her approval regardless of her feelings regarding Ingrid. Lina, went on and reached the Beowulf Territory, Beowulf being another leader of an Order and close friend of Ingid, as well as the teacher of Adelheid. Beowulf, did not look deeply into the matter and was ready to give Lina approval on the spot but Adelheid voiced her discontent, stating that it was not fair to give Lina approval half-heartedly. As such Lina and Adelheid had a mock battle infront of Beowulf, which resparked the intrest in Beowulf of the new generation of Hell Knights, that hopefully could break the corruption and stagnation. With the approval of now three Hell Knights, Lina arrived at a temple, which summoed a "Shadow" of her ideal self, a winged demon Lina. She was able to overcome her own pride, and returned to Yomihara, now considered one of the first Hell Knights that had succeeded the test after Ingrid.

As, Task Force G and the forces of Wraith king, Teutates target either Lina or Ingird, both defend each other. In one event, Lina later on saves Ingrid, from an assassination attempt by Resurrection, Elvira and Ares. During raids on members of the Wraith forces, she kills Lady Shark, which worked for the Teutates in combat but was almost killed by the sneak attack of Felicia herself, before Ingrid gave her support. Which forced Felicia to flee, which in this timeline had been brainwashed into Teutates forces.

While having visiting an ice coffee, she had small talks with Koukawa Asuka and Linoa Serin, all three had a loose conversation about cooperation between demons and humans. When the DSO and Taimanin, fought against the Anzu, which caused a large typhoon that could destroy Japan. Lina convinced Ingrid to support them, while Ingrid could not fly fast enough, Nadra Vyrol used her fate glimpsing abilities and saw Lina fly with wings. However, Lina's magic was too weak, instead she was supported by Lilith Abel Bindernagel which gave her wings and magic for a short time. Unable to master flight on the spot, Dolores used magic to control her flight like a video game avatar, and Ingrid provided her shortly with her magical blade. Lina was able, to help Koukawa Asuka in her fight against the Anzu, but both struggled until the beast was hit, long distant, by a lighting of Mizuki Yukikaze. With the Anzu losing its defenses, it now also lost its wings in a quick double attack and was blasted into the sky by a combination attack of Lina and Asuka.

In year **2087**, Lina took part in a competition between Nomad, DSO and Taimanin. Lina was a racer in the Tokyo Kingdom Circuit, and drove with her wind magic powered car against, Koukawa Asuka and Uehara Shikanosuke. However, the the contest ended without a winner because of an ongoing battle, which forced itself onto the racetrack.
