- Linda

Linda (リンダ) is a character from Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War. She is the substitute character of Teeny if Tailto was not paired up.

Profile
Linda is the daughter of Tailto's younger sister, Ethnia, and the sister of Amid. Similar to Tailto and Teeny, Ethnia and Linda were forced to live with the Freeges, with Ethnia ultimately dying as a result of the abuse dealt to her by Hilda.

Linda's personality is similar to that of Teeny's: Humble, kind and sweet. She also bears a grudge towards Hilda and Bloom for being the direct causes of Ethnia's untimely fate.

Overview
Unlike Teeny, Linda's starting class is that of a Thunder Mage, which will allow her to use the Thoron spellbook. She is one of two replacement characters possessing Holy Blood.

In hindsight, Linda may seem to be the more preferred choice, as she possesses the Paragon skill. However, Teeny will always end up surpassing Linda in terms of durability, even if Linda will usually have better magic than Teeny.

Conversations
In Chapter 7, if Amid may speak to Linda, she will defect to Seliph's army.

In Chapter 7, Linda may speak to Seliph, but nothing will result of it.

In Chapter 8, if neither Seliph nor Linda has a lover, he may speak to her after Conote is captured. She will gain three points of HP and 100 love points with him.

In Chapter 8, if Linda visits a certain spot in the mountains, she will meet Jake and gain three points of magic defense.

In the Final Chapter, if neither Amid nor Linda has a lover, he may speak to her, and she will gain one point of luck.

In the Final Chapter, Linda may speak to her lover if he is either Seliph, Ced, Hawk or Leif. This will result in her lover gaining three points of magic.
