Lore
Lyndon is a thief hailing from Kingsport, and a braggart who takes a more humorous approach to the game's setting. Leonard Boyarsky spoke of Lyndon in an interview with FZ.se[1]:
Gear
The followers in Diablo III are much more restricted in what they can equip from what we've seen in the mercenaries in Diablo II: Lord of Destruction. It is currently unknown what items the Enchantress can equip, or what the restrictions are. What is known is that each follower can equip two rings, an amulet, a main-hand weapon, with a possibility of an off-hand item such as a shield, varying by follower. Lyndon has only been seen utilizing a two-handed crossbow. Each follower, in addition to the above, also unlocks an item slot at level 25, which will be a unique item gained through completing the follower's storyline. Lyndon's unique item has yet to be revealed.
Like the other followers, the Scoundrel has three levels of gear progression. It's currently unknown if the gear progression is only cosmetic, or if it based upon level, or some other system. The final tier of armor for the Scoundrel bears remarkable similarity to that of the Demon Hunter at later levels, the main difference being the Scoundrel's manly mustache.
Skills
Much like the player character classes, followers are able to learn a few skills or spells at specific level milestones. Not much is known about the skills, currently, besides their names and when they are unlocked. Players may choose one skill from each tier. Follower skills cannot be augmented nor benefit from runes, and they only have one rank, as opposed to player skills.
As the Enchantress draws many parallels to the Wizard in terms of spells, the same holds true for the Scoundrel, having many similar abilities to the Demon Hunter..

Fan Favorite?
Some fans critiqued Kormac as following too closely to the art direction of the WarCraft series, and others commented on the lack of clothing and pop-star sensibilities of Eirena[2]. However, Lyndon seems to draw uninaimous approval due, perhaps in part, to his excellently-groomed mustache, armor theme similar to that of the gothic Demon Hunter, and the in-born charisma of a thief.
