When first meeting Linsella, she stands in Moonrise Towers' kitchens training {{CharLink|Barnabus|'Barnabus'}}, with the other gnolls {{CharLink|'Timothy'}} and {{CharLink|'Tomelia'}} nearby. {{Coords|117|-178}}

She offers to demonstrate her domination over the gnolls by forcing 'Barnabus' to dance or pray, during which his primal rage will attempt to rebel against her hold. The party can pass a {{Ability check|Wisdom|16}} to sever her control, allowing the gnoll to murder his master. Once the gnolls are no longer dominated, they will attack the party unless another DC 16 skill check is passed, using [[Persuasion]], [[Intimidation]] or [[Illithid Persuasion]]. The Dark Urge will not need to pass a check to pacify the gnolls, being recognized by 'Barnabus': "...he grovels with a howl of pining awe..." and offering up a few more lines of dialogue.

Alternatively, the party can reinforce her domination, or do nothing. Linsella will compliment the player if the former is chosen and reward them with a {{SmRarityItem|Severed Arm}}. If the latter is chosen, 'Barnabus' will collapse and die from the mental strain.

Successfully doing so will reward inspiration for {{Background|Urchin}}, {{Background|Charlatan}}, {{Background|Haunted One}} backgrounds.

Linsella will compliment the player if the former is chosen and reward them with a {{SmRarityItem|Severed Arm}}, and the party character will receive inspiration if they have the {{Background|Entertainer}} or {{Background|Charlatan}} backgrounds. If the latter is chosen, 'Barnabus' will collapse and die from the mental strain.
