Tinkiwizz Isabella Cogsprocket (Formerly Cogwhistle and more commonly referred to as Tinki) is a member of the Arclight Association, recently returning to the organization after the Old God outbreak destroying her home in Pandaria.

## Upbringing

Tinki was born in the city of Gnomeregan and lived with her father Bertholimule Tinkertop who was a toy maker with store close to the center of the city. In her early years she constantly pestered her father to allow her study at one of the arcane schools in Dalaran, though always refused her requests. However being a former Kirin Tor mage himself he decided to teach her what he knew as a compromise as well as attempt to teach her how to control her emotions and quite rampant temper.

Her mother Tilenna was often absent from her childhood, busy with her duty to the Alliance military and 7th Legion, serving as both an engineer and marksman, only to be seen by Tinki for short periods between deployments.

### Fall of Gnomeregan

Following the Fall of Gnomeregan Tinki and her father lost their home and business, relocated by the dwarves of Ironforge to Tinkertown they began patching their lives back together and start a new toy company from the ground up. Fortunately her mothers status in the military proved useful, leaving them with a large sum of money.

### Mothers Death

Years later, Tinki's mother was deployed to Northrend to fight the war against the scourge and eventually met her end at the Wrath Gate. Her body was never found and the worst was assumed. Tinki's father was hit the worst by this event, falling into a steady depressive decline, eventually leading to him signing up for the Alliance military himself as an attempt to throw his life away. Tinki used this time to find a proper mentor, finding herself as an apprentice of a human sorcerer in the Mage District of Stormwind.

## Military Career (G.T.A)

A few years following her mothers death yet another global crisis struck the world of Azeroth, the Iron Horde. Her father, still suffering from from the shock of his wife's death, was called upon to march into Draenor alongside Alliance forces. Tinki herself moved to Lakeshire, closer to the portal in an attempt to help quell the initial tide.

After the the Iron Tide subsided and Alliance forces began to return Tinki waited in Lakeshire for her father. While waiting she often wandered around the nearby Alliance lands and Stormwind looking for work and eventually ended up joining the Gnomish military in hopes of finding her father. While she never stepped foot on Draenor she eventually met with a dwarf who claimed to be part of her fathers squad and confirmed his death, the body was never recovered.

Tinki, having inherited her fathers estate she sold all of his possessions in an attempt to move on.

During her time in the military she went on numerous raids against a vast number of foes. Venture Co in Stranglethorn, rouge scientists, various campaigns such as a battle between the Horde and Alliance in Northrend.

## Skycog Falcons

Tinki became incredibly emotionally unstable and left the military for a more laid back and less dangerous profession. She ended up joining a Gnomish aerial display team known as the "Skycog Falcons" and spent several months with them, and while she enjoyed their company and eased her mind.

During her time with the Falcons they were planning to expand into the adventuring business, having gained their trust she was given command of a small ground platoon known as The Cog Watch.

The Falcons came under attack from an unknown cartel led by an unknown female Pandaren who destroyed all their copters and took what little wealth they had. In the battle her left arm was badly wounded and left her with permanent nerve damage. The injury required her to wear a mechanical brace to aid with muscle movement.

It was at this point she bought back the old toy shop and became a Mechanic within Ironforge.

Tinki's spiral continued and she began experimenting with fel magic, almost summoning a demon in Ironforge before her sister Lizzle Gleamwhistle found her and managed to nurse her, mostly, back to a decent frame of mind.

## Legion

While Tinki was pleased to know she had a sister and the thought of that was a comfort, they did not see eye to eye. Tinki, a mage dabbling in fel magic and Lizzle a paladin of the Sons of Lothar had incredibly contrasting views of the world.

Eventually Tinki left for Kalimdor abandoning her sister after a heated debate, finding her way to Gadgetzan and later Uldum where she began her drug trade, dealing in substances such as bloodthistle and felwart.

During her time in Uldum she met with A.R.C.L.I.G.H.T, having recognized Bertel Wobblespring she followed them back to Gadgetzan before eventually joining up with the band of Alliance outlaws. The group made their way to Northrend where they lost Tinki, who after the appearance of Argus, joined the Burning Legion.

During her time with the Legion she served as a skirmisher of the 345th Platoon lead by the Doomlord Ik'dal. Having joined both out of fear, and on a quest for power she disapproved of the Legions methods. Constantly disobeying her masters she was tortured for a prolonged period of time. (Roughly 4 months though exactly measure of time is unkown.) Due to the use of demon blood involved in the torture she developed multiple mutations. Most notable of which were green rings around her irises (Which still linger to this day) and her once non functioning arm was twisted and corrupted into something she could use, at the cost of her sanity.

Tinki eventually escaped during a raid on the Titan facility Uludar intending retrieve a Titan disc after assaulting Ik'dal and using the Titanforged present as cover. She continued to wander the frozen wastes of Northrend until she was picked up by the Alliance and thrown in the Ironforge Jail, below the city.

The family home inherited from her father was given to Lizzle.

## A.R.C.L.I.G.H.T

After months of trying Lizzle managed to get the Ironforge prison to sign release papers for Tinki alongside Gembert Flarewizz and Molly Mechasprocket. She was then handed over to the now reformed Arclight Association, now free from their exile and working alongside the Alliance. Escorted to the Hinterlands for the annual troll culling Tinki was tasked to aid such, meeting with Molly Mechasprokect, Lyra Steamsmith, Alyll Minkiwheel and reuniting with an old acquaintance Bertel Wobblespring.

### War of the Thorns

Following her employment with Arclight she joined them on an expedition to Pandaria where she first met Quizley Brassfizzle who also joined them on the journey. During this expedition she began to doubt herself and her abilities, beginning to show disdain for fel and her mutations. Quizley's positive outlook on the world allowed her a sense of clarity and purpose as she began to grow fond of her new comrades.

Arclight was to return to HQ via their airship, the Fizzlespring which was brought down by a Horde gunship over the Stonetalon Mountains after refilling at Bael Modan. This marked the start of the Fourth War and forced Tinki to reevaluate her sense of self. After aiding the Alliance in Darkshore and Ashenvale the Association retreated to Felwood and later Moonglade where Tinki met with a Cenarian druid who cleansed her mutations and reshaped her fel twisted arm into a branch of ash wood.

### Discovery of Drust

Shortly after the War of the Thorns Arclight were sent by the Explorers League to Kul Tiras to investigate rumors of a lost Gnomish city, set up in a new HQ within Tiragarde Sound and exploring the immediate area. Upon reaching the city of Boralus they were met with a guide Flozzbert Gaugeticker who accompanied them on their travels. However he eventually met his end as a puppet of the Heartsbane Coven a group of witches using the ancient magic of the Drust Warlord Gorak Tul to corrupt the land of Drustvar. This prompted Tinki to begin investigating the Drust.

Through the recommendation of a Thornspeaker she made her way to the mountains of Drustvar not far from Arom's Stand to seek out the last remaining Drust druid, Ulfar. She spent many months in the mountains training before returning to Arclight after the city of Mechagon was discovered and began researching Drust magic unaided.

She began attempting to use Drust magic, siphoning from what she thought was Thros but instead the Emerald Nightmare, the idea prompted by a talking raven who happened to be a minion of Gorak Tul. She slowly became corrupted by Old God magic.

### Resignation

Once the city of Mechagon was liberated from King Mechagon's control Arclight was tasked with finding the remaining loyalists who had fled to Stormheim and supposedly their former Mechagnome colleague G-30-RG-3, aided by the goblins of the Bilgewater Battalion. During this time Tinki fell prey to corruption and fell into the sea only to awake in Menethil Harbor weeks after the Gnomes had returned. During this Time Molly Mechasprocket had fled to Pandaria however to Tinki's knowledge was presumed dead.

After discovering she was alive with the help of Glasiosa Magitech she followed Molly's trail to Krasarang Wilds where they both stayed in retirement and eventually falling in love.

Months later both Tinki and Molly returned to Dun Morogh for the annual Troll culling once again meeting with Arclight and the now undead Lyra Steamsmith. Quizley discussed with Tinki that they were going on an expedition to Nazmir to rid the organization of corruption to which she agreed and returned to Pandaria afterwards, handing in her resignation.

### Mantid Raids in Pandaria

After returning to Pandaria Tinki lived a happy life with her newfound significant other Molly However this was short lived as Mantid began raiding local settlements, including the house the two had built together. For a month Tinki was presumed dead until contacting the Association via Talker while raiding one of the remaining Mechagon Loyalist bases in an unknown location. Some time between going missing and arriving back in Dun Morogh Tinki sustained an injury, losing her wooden arm and replacing it herself with the remains of a dead Mechagnome.

She arrived back at Arclight HQ two days after making contact. Translocation data indicates that she came from Gadgetzan.
