- Lynessa’s Battlecry is limited to 30 cards and casts the buffs in a random order.[1][2]
Adaptation spells cast on Lynessa chooses a random adaptation instead of the original adaptation.[3]- The spells cast on her do not count towards the Paladin Quest, The Last Kaleidosaur.[4]
- Spells that were copied with
Djinni of Zephyrs will not be cast on Lynessa. - Spells that place a Deathrattle enchantment on Lynessa such as Spikeridged Steed will not trigger if she is played while Spiritsinger Umbra is in play.[3]

Sacrificial Pact, despite being an illegal target for the spell. This may be intended.[5] - Lynessa will cast Dire Frenzy on herself, despite being an illegal target for the spell.

Interactions[edit source]
Lynessa will cast every spell in a random order, to a maximum of 30 spells.
Neutral Spells like Lantern of Power or Nightmare are applied normally.
Below is a small list of how different spells interact with Lynessa:
- Normal effect - Spells that will be cast normally, without involving or ignoring special conditions
Examples: Blessing of Wisdom, Blessing of Might, 
Divine Strength, 
Sand Breath, 
Lightforged Blessing, 
Dark Conviction,
Flash of Light, and 
Hand of A'dal.
- Special effects - Spells that have unique effects when used by her Battlecry, or are not normally able to be casted
Examples:
Adaptation: Lynessa will adapt randomly. She can cast the same option twice.
Shield of Honor: She gains both of the buffs without being Damaged.
Sound the Bells!: The first bell and the Echo bells will be re-cast.
Libram of Wisdom: All casts will be considered unique spells for her Battlecry, in other words, she will retain every single one of the Librams that were used, along with the Deathrattle.
Rampage: Works the same way as Shield of Honor
Bestial Wrath: Gives her Immunity, despite not being able to use it under normal situations
Dire Frenzy: The spell will be applied despite Lynessa not being a Beast
Explorer's Hat: Works the same way as Libram of Wisdom

Lore
Lynessa is unique to Hearthstone. She is a former Blood Knight who left the order, disgusted, after they stopped draining power from the naaru, as she felt that the elves had grown weak and that drawing from the Sunwell couldn't give her the power she truly sought. Now starving for magic, she has ventured to the catacombs, a repository of ancient energy. As she explores, she drains the magic from the air, feasting for the first time since she left Silvermoon City.[6]
She shares her last name with Ambassador Sunsorrow, the blood elven ambassador to the Forsaken of the Undercity, but it's unknown if the two are related.
Trivia
- Lynessa Sunsorrow's entrance music is taken from Ghostlands.
