Linsella is a halfling True Soul who works in the kitchen in Moonrise Towers during Act Two.
“You use a spoon to stir the soup, Barnabus. Forget the axe, my darling.„
Overview[edit | edit source]
Linsella was gifted by the Absolute the ability to "rewrite the lives of her faithful". Her ability enforces the condition 
on creatures, and allows her to control them. It is possible Linsella is controlling the True Soul gnolls who can be found along the Risen Road with Flind.
Involvement[edit | edit source]
When first meeting Linsella, she stands in Moonrise Towers' kitchens training 'Barnabus', with the other gnolls 'Timothy' and 'Tomelia' nearby. X: 117 Y: -178
She offers to demonstrate her domination over the gnolls by forcing 'Barnabus' to dance or pray, during which his primal rage attempts to rebel against her hold.
Sever her control[edit | edit source]
The party can then sever her control, allowing the gnoll to murder his master:
- [DARK URGE] [WISDOM] Compel the gnolls to pulp their master. (DC 16)
+1 
+1 
+1 
+1 
+1 - [WISDOM] Sever her control once and for all. (DC 16) +1 +1 +1 +1 +1
Successfully doing so rewards inspiration for 
, 
, 
backgrounds.
If freed from domination, the gnolls attack the party unless another ability check is passed:
- [PERSUASION] Easy! I freed you - I'm a friend. (DC 16)
- [INTIMIDATION] Try it - I dare you. (DC 16)
- [BARBARIAN] [INTIMIDATION] Match it growl for growl. (DC 16)
- [ILLITHID] [TRUE SOUL] [WISDOM] Now, now, Barnabus - behave. (DC 14)
- [RANGER] [ANIMAL HANDLING] The creature thinks you prey - adjust your body language to display as a threat.' (DC 16
)
The Dark Urge does not need to pass a check to pacify the gnolls, because they are recognized by 'Barnabus': "...he grovels with a howl of pining awe..." and offers a few more lines of dialogue.
Reinforce her control[edit | edit source]
Alternatively, the party can reinforce her domination:
- [DARK URGE] Put aside dreams of mincing her. Help her take back control. -1 -1 +1
- Reinforce her efforts with your own. -1 -1 +1
Linsella compliments the party and rewards them with a 
Severed Arm, and the party character receives inspiration, if they have the 
or backgrounds.
Do nothing[edit | edit source]
- It seems you're not as commanding as you think.
If the last option is chosen, 'Barnabus' collapses and dies from the mental strain.
