Appearance
Linssen's 2011 anime adaptation design
Linssen is a skinny man and is usually dressed in traditional Chinese clothing,[2] but later in the series is seen dressed in a formal tie and suit.[4]
Personality
Linssen is very fearful and insecure, which is shown from being absolutely against Kurapika's decision of capturing the member of the Phantom Troupe, Uvogin.[5] When criticized by Mizaistom for being a Hunter working for a Mafia family, Linssen showed some pride and justified himself. He argues that the income of the Nostrade Family comes from gambling and bodyguarding (both legal) and that the family pays their taxes. Therefore, he has nothing to be ashamed of regarding his occupation.[4]
Background
At some point during his life, he took the Hunter Exam and passed, becoming a licensed Hunter.

On a private runway at the Lingon Airport, Linssen, accompanied by Ivlenkov, Tocino, Dalzollene, and Squala, oversee Neon as she exits her private airship and enters into a private car that heads towards Yorknew City.[2] On the night of the Underground Auction in the Hotel Beitacle, Dalzollene instructs the bodyguards what items they'll have to buy (regardless of cost) and what each of their respective jobs will be during the said auction. Linssen was assigned to guard the back of the auction house with Basho.[6] Dalzollene briefly mentions Linssen, saying that he'll contact him to inform him of the incident that occurred at the Underground Auction that night.[7] Sometime later, Linssen, along with the other Nostrade bodyguards, tracks down the thieves of the Underground Auction and witnesses Uvogin kill all of the Mafioso that confronted him.[8]
With all of the Mafioso dead, the Shadow Beasts appear before the Nostrade bodyguards and challenge Uvogin.[8] As the skirmish with Uvogin vs the Shadow Beasts goes on, Linssen exclaims that he has never witnessed Nen like Uvogin's. Later after Uvogin finishes off the Shadow Beasts the bodyguards are shocked and anxious by Kurapika's desire to capture Uvogin. To avoid any conflict between them all Melody plays her Enchanting Music Nen ability, to calm everyone down. This works however Kurapika still insists and manages to capture Uvogin. As they drive back to the Hotel Beitacle, Linssen spots a car tailing them.[9]
The remainder of the Shadow Beasts ambush the car tailing them and Linssen notes that they're out of sight. Back in the Hotel Beitacle, the Nostrade bodyguards try to interrogate the restrained Uvogin to find out where the missing auction items are, but to no avail.[10] With Dalzollene presumed dead, after Uvogin was rescued by his Phantom Troupe allies, Linssen along with the other Nostrade bodyguards all agree that Kurapika should become the new head bodyguard, so he can contact and inform their real boss Light Nostrade of the situation at hand.[11] When Light arrives in Yorknew and is brought up to date with the situation at hand, he thanks the bodyguards for their work and after he has his daughter out of the picture, he divulges important information to the group about the Underground Auction, Shadow Beasts, and how the Ten Dons plan to deal with the Phantom Troupe.[12]

Reluctantly, Linssen agrees to let Mizaistom see Kurapika but warns against provoking him. Mizaistom then inquires about the organization, to which Linssen retorts that the organization isn't a criminal organization. Furthermore, their main source of income is from personal security details and gambling, both of which are legal, they also pay their taxes, and he has no right to any disdaining comments.[4]
