L inza has travelled the world in the name of artisanry. The terms that are attributed to her - master smith, expert craftswoman - are of no interest to her; she simply wants to perfect and improve the human form through fabric and metal. Her aim is to smith and craft weapons and armour that are feather-light, diamond-hard and resilient as the continents themselves.

Linza is obsessed with artisanry, and has perfected smithing beyond her peers. She's old-fashioned in the truest sense of the word, shunning industrial machines in favour of techniques that have long been dismissed as archaic by other smiths. The simplicity of a balanced sword is a comfort to her, as she searches for new techniques that will advance the world's knowledge of smithing and crafting.
