I have the following (simplified)

public enum Level
{
    Bronze,
    Silver,
    Gold
}

public class Member
{
    public virtual Level MembershipLevel { get; set; }
}

public class MemberMap : ClassMap<Member>
{
    Map(x => x.MembershipLevel);
}

This creates a table with a column called MembershipLevel with the value as the Enum string value.

What I want is for the entire Enum to be created as a lookup table, with the Membe table referencing this with the integer value as the FK.

Also, I want to do this without bas***izing my model.

Any ideas?
