Lin is of Chinese-American heritage, is the sole female lieutenant in the Saints, and is teased as the silent protagonist's potential love interest. She is the self-titled "best racer to ever come out of Chinatown" and her pride and joy is her customized Voxel sports car. Julius Little assigns the task Lin of infiltrating the West Side Rollerz organization in an effort to gain more insight on how the Rollerz operate. Lin's information leads to the sabotage of one of the Rollerz's illegal street races, but Lin eventually gets impatient and decides to move up her timetable. She devises a plan where she stages a rescue of the Rollerz chief mechanic, Donny, and eventually gets to meet the true power behind the Rollerz: Joseph Price and his uncle, William Sharp.
Unfortunately for Lin, her impatience leads to her downfall as William Sharp eventually deduces her status as a mole. Sharp captures Lin and uses her as bait in a trap for the silent protagonist. After ridiculing Donny about him calling her 'his girl,' Lin slowly drowns as she bleeds out from a gunshot wound inflicted by Sharp while locked in the trunk of her beloved Voxel along with the silent protagonist (also wounded by a gunshot from Sharp but recovers well enough to take revenge). During a cutscene following the mission where the Saints reclaim the Row, you never see johnny and lin together, but there is scene where Johnny Gat seems to be surprised by Lin volunteering to spy on the Rollerz ("Lin? What the fuck you wearing blue for?") and advises her on the best way to throw a punch. It is suggested by the previous hints and the level of Gat's reaction to Lin's demise (Julius comments that "Johnny will be out for blood" shortly before learning about the Rollerz pending attack on the Row.), and the shared fiery temper that both Lin & Johnny have, that Johnny and Lin are siblings.

[edit] Trivia
- As an inside joke, the player can dial up Eye For An Eye voodoo supplies (555-5966) and unlock Lin as a homie, but only after the cutscene where Lin dies. She will then be available as a badly decomposed zombie and drives to wherever The Protagonist is in a customized Reaper. She will tear off one of her own arms for use as a weapon and attack whomever threatens the silent protagonist. Zombie Lin will even go as far as to briefly pause to eat the brains of anyone lying dead on the street.
- The Protagonist reveals to Tera Patrick that he revealed the news of Zombie Lin to Channel 6, but they wouldn't run it.
