## Biography

Acting as minions of Lady Luck, and by extension her father Himitsu, Tink and his Tonks sought to capture the lucky cat Mieko so that their masters could recruit him. Attacking Mieko's camp, they mistakenly tranquilized and kidnapped his best friend, the unlucky cat Misfit. Mieko attempted to prevent this, but Tink-apparently due to being employed by a lucky cat himself-was able to land a blow on Mieko. Tink and Tonks thus escaped with their captive and delivered him to Lady Luck.

Once Misfit had awoken and Lady Luck had learned that Mieko would arrive in search of him, she inadvertently knocked him out after he voiced the assumption that she was about to kiss him. She then summoned Tink and Tonks to keep a guard on the unlucky cat. After Misfit awoke, Tink explained that Misfit had been punished for "flirtin' with [their] boss." The aggressive cat then warned that he and Tonks would punish Misfit further if he repeated such a mistake.

When Misfit questioned how Tink would be able to harm him, the small cat immediately took offense at the suggestion that his small size made him weak. He promptly attacked Misfit but was soon pulled off his victim by Tonks and pacified by Misfit's begging for mercy. Just as Tonks gave him a pat on the head in apparent approval of his restraint, Lady Luck came flying into the room in the midst of her battle with Mieko. She alerted the pair to Mieko's presence, and the three faced the lucky cat together.

Tink made the first attack, and was promptly sent flying by a kick from Mieko. After failing to strike Mieko with a kick herself, Lady Luck ordered Tink to "Bring in the big guns!" Tink responded by employing explosives, one of which landed near Misfit while Lady Luck and Mieko were grappling. Mieko quickly broke free and landed a kick on Lady Luck, and then grabbed Misfit while using the force of the explosion to launch them a safe distance away.

Sometime later, Lady Luck had Tink and Tonks serve as intermediaries to hire the Royal Flush Gang to eliminate Misfit and Mieko, providing them with a large mech to accomplish the deed. However, the bandits were foiled by Mieko and Misfit's powers, and identified their benefactors upon their defeat. Misfit was puzzled, remembering that Lady Luck had previously been out only to capture Mieko, not harm him. Mieko was less concerned with her exact purposes than her obvious ill intent.

## Personality and traits

Tink is a small cat, especially in comparison to his hulking brother Tonks, but is also dwarfed by Misfit, Lady Luck, and Mieko. What he lacks in size he makes up for in a ferocity that borders on insane at times, particularly when he feels demeaned or has been given leave to employ deadly force. Tink also seems to be loyal, at least professionally, to Lady Luck, and seems to have taken offense at Misfit's supposed "flirtin'" with her.

## Trivia

* According to the Three Year Anniversary Q&A, Tink-together with Tonks and Lady Luck-was one of the first characters to be created for the comic after Misfit and Mieko.
