Adelaïde was a Hidden One active during the 9th century who was tasked to re-establish the Lunden bureau built during the Roman era.

Biography

At some point in the late 9th century, the Hidden One acolyte Hytham sent the Viking Niels Gunnarsson and the copyist monk Edward to Lunden in the belief that they had potential as future members of the Hidden Ones. Adelaïde began to train the two young men as their mentor while they investigated the mysterious disappearance of Edward's older brother, Ecbert.[1]

Eventually, the Hidden One and her two pupils travelled to the Kingdom of Alba, where a Christian sect was using the Codex of Eden's power to convert the local population. They destroyed the cult by flooding the Loch Ness Temple, an Isu complex which the zealots used as their headquarters. However, in Adelaïde's efforts to recover the Codex, she inadvertently killed Ecbert, who had faked his death and had been sent by King Alfred of Wessex to infiltrate the cult.[1]

After Ecbert was fatally struck by a throwing knife which Adelaïde redirected back at him, a furious Edward assaulted his mentor and, in the brief scuffle that ensued, Adelaïde fell to her death, shattering the Codex in the process. Following his mentor's death, Edward followed in Ecbert's footsteps by joining Alfred's cause while Niels declined Hytham's offer to join the Hidden Ones and opted to remain a free agent.[1]
