Robin Carol Guinto Lin (born Eliza Carol Lin; 29 August 2065 - 20 February 2171), known online as MouseyLyn,  was a Fallen politician, poet, internet personality, and pornographic actor who served as the 3rd president of Heavenfall from 2082 to 2090. Lin assumed the presidency after the death of Harvey Guinto. They were the youngest person to ever become president of Heavenfall. After the presidency, they entered the Heavenfall House of Assembly, serving as chancellor twice, from 2105 to 2115, and again from 2123 to 2128. After resigning from the chancellorship, they were elected by the Assembly to be speaker, serving from 2128 to 2153. Lin's 15‑year tenure as chancellor and 25‑year tenure as speaker are the longest in Heavenfall history. Initially a proponent of the Liberation Movement, Lin later founded the populist centre-left Labor Party.

Early life and career

Lin was born in Letterkenny, Ireland, on 29 August 2065. Their mother, Carol Zhao, was an illustrator, and their father, Lin Bolin, was a Taiwanese-born theoretical physicist. Lin had an older brother, Thomas, a younger brother, Eamon, and a younger sister, Magnolia.

In 2077, the Lin family relocated to Heavenfall due to the ongoing Ireland Crisis. Lin attended Heavenfall High School, achieving high grades in class.

On 14 March 2077, Lin created the YouTube and Fleuride channels MouseyLyn. They began streaming video game content two days later, uploading the VODs to YouTube. They quickly grew in popularity, especially among Chinese-Fallen children and teens.

Vice Presidency

2080 campaign

On 10 August 2080, two weeks before the election, Harvey Guinto announced that he chose Lin to be his running mate. The choice was a shock and became immediately controversial. Questions about Lin's age, lack of experience, and general outspokenness plagued the Guinto campaign. The left-wing aspects of the Liberation Movement were upset that none of their experienced choices were chosen, while right-wing aspects were upset about Lin's positions regarding immigrant freedoms, abortion, wealth inequality, and social welfare.

The Guinto-Lin ticket won the August election, winning 71.4% of the popular vote. They were sworn in on 1 October 2080, the first transfer of power from one president to another in Heavenfall history. Outgoing vice president Pak Daesung handed Lin a pair of sunglasses during the inauguration ceremony. Lin kept the sunglasses in regular use for the rest of their life.

Assembly career

Speakership (2128-2153)

On 4 December 2152, one month following the death of their vice president and former fiancée Samiha Karim, Lin announced their intention to retire as speaker and assemblymember at the end of the Congressional term. In a statement to the Assembly, Lin cited their age and the "air of change" in the nation as the reasons for their retirement. Following the assassination of president Lynnestrom Tran, several assemblymembers called for Lin to postpone their retirement to maintain stability. Despite this, Lin signalled their continued intent to retire, and, on 1 April 2153, officially resigned the speakership. As the senior member of the Assembly, Lin presided over the election of their successor, Madeline Tiffany.

Lin served as speaker for 25 years, the longest tenure in Heavenfall history.

Lin died in their sleep on 20 February 2171, just one month after their oldest child, Susanna Lin, died.
