Linnea

"There's some beauty to your flaws."

Princess Linnea

Leader of the Imperial Guard

Imperial Guard.

## History

### Origin

Linnea is a member of the Cotati, a species that evolved on the planet Hala alongside the Kree. The Cotati were pacifists whereas the Kree were barbarians and only cared for destruction and wars. Given their beliefs the 2 races had little to no contact with the other, and were forbidden to interact with the other.

Linnea was one of the first Cotati to inhabit the world of Hala, and as such was considered to be royalty by her race. Unlike the rest of the Cotati, Linnea believed that being pacifists would only lead to their extinction, which made her be seen as a renegade.

### Kree vs Cotati

After the Kree invaded the Cotati's lands in Hala she was forced into hiding, watching how her people were killed. She realised that in order to ensure her own survival she would have to team up with the Kree, knowing that the Cotati wouldn't last in the war.

She sneaked up to the Kree's palace but was captured by the guards and was taken to their leader. Thinking she was a spy sent by the Cotati, he ordered the guards to kill her, she fought them off and incapacitated them, using her powers for the first time to trap them with vines. She told the King that she wished to join them in the war, keeping her true intentions to herself.

### Battle of Beliefs

Years went on and the war was nowhere near it's ending. After becoming more adept with her powers she sought for more and started to absorb the essence of the fallen Cotati into herself, greatly increasing her abilities.

She helped the Kree in their fight against her race, thinking it was the right thing to do. Within the next 5 years she came to the conclusion that the Kree were to greedy to stop if the battle ever came to an end, realising that both of their species were flawed and were doomed to become extinct.

She single handedly took down both the Kree and the Cotati's resistance and fled from Hala, adventuring into another solar system.

### Inhumans

After millenia of wandering the universe she felt strangely drawn to a certain solar system with a planet that was capable of hosting life. She prompted to visit said planet but saw that, just like Hala, the species inhabiting the Earth were flawed and would suffer the same ending as the Cotati.

This caught the attention of the Inhumans as they saw her as a threat to their solar system, having knowledge of what had happened to the Cotati and the Kree. In an effort to capture her and send her back to Hala, the inhumans sent Crystal and Medusa to fight her. After an intense battle and being outmatched by their fighting skills, Linnea decided to escape.

### Shi'Ar Empire

Linnea joined the Shi'Ar Empire's Royal Guard with the sole purpose of protecting the Emperor/Empress; in this case D'Kenn.

After the events that lead to D'Kenn's defeat, she then became loyal to the new ruler of the Shi'Ar; Lilandra Neramani.

She fought by Lilandra's side during many battles, proving to be as good as The Gladiator when it came to her job. When the Emperatrix Lilandra was murdered by Black Hawk, she decided to retreat along with the rest of the Royal Guard until a new ruler was found. Many members of the guard left the Shi'Ar after Lilandra's death, including Gladiator.

Thinking that the mutant Gabriel Summers (Vulcan) wasn't fit to lead the Shi'Ar Empire, Linnea alongside the rest of the Imperial Guard started a rebellion against him. Learning that Deathbird had returned to stop the rebellion- and to take the position of Empress, Linnea instructed the rest of the Guard to take care of her while she would fight Vulcan; the fight between the two lasted about 3 hours until Lin emerged victorious after sending him back to Earth through a wormhole.
