Manfred Mink (series)

**Manfred Mink** is a Minerva Mink fanseries where all characters have been genderbent.

Relevant artwork was conceived in 2017, but never finished or given an official upload. Though pieces of it were posted online by other users, it wasn't until October 29, 2020 the series was given a proper introduction at Deviantart.

## Characters

### Manfred Mink

The male Minerva Mink.

He's an overly alluring mink who catches the eye of most girls, though never seems to charm those he likes.

He used to look more like his short and unattractive mother, but was bullied into changing his appearance and desires the approval of the beautiful and popular.

Despite his past insecurities, Manfred is confident, self-important, shallow, and manipulative. When approached by people he thinks are below his standards, he finds it hard to grant them a look, while he acts a fool in front of overly attractive women. He is blind for his absence of redeeming qualities and thinks to owe the good life he's obtained for himself.

### Newlyn Schnappsie

The female Newt. She's a dachshund sent by her human owner to retrieve Manfred and is a reoccurring pursuer.

She's a professionally trained hunting dog who keeps getting distracted by Manfred's good looks and fake flirting. She struggles between honouring her human's wishes and asking Manfred for marriage, yet isn't deaf for his continuous insults, which can make her a little vengeful at times.

She's a bit socially awkward and has rude opinions on men, her past being to blame.

### Judy Thang

The female nephew of Trudy's (Minerva's unseen friend), as for his lookalike from the comic, "Natural Chemistry".

Manfred was one day asked by a friend to lead his niece around town, this being Judy. She greeted him by saying not to be paying for anything on his tour, and after he ridiculed himself in front of her, she left him standing.

She's the only child of a highly religious couple, but soon developed her own style and the desire to "rebel". Despite her unapproachable tough girl-look and act, she's shown to have a soft spot for outcasts and doesn't like the boisterous type much.

Intrigued by taboo subjects and inspired by Newlyn Schnappsie, she pursued the job of hunting dog and became a close friend of Newlyn's not long after.

### Wilfreda B. Wolf

The female Wilford. She's a geek stereotype who never made her love for Manfred a secret. Out of every girl in the list, they have known each other the longest and attended the same college.

She was one of Manfred's many pursuers and the two dated for a lengthy amount of time. He used to act hostile towards her because of her appearance and lack of charms, but when he witnessed her transform into an entirely different girl under the exposure of a full moon, he became smitten and the two appeared a match.

He broke up with her over multiple issues, one of those being her little brother's relationship with the genderbent Newt.

### Darlene Shrivernecker

The female Darnol Shrivernecker from the Minerva Mink comic, "Minks is Finks".

She's an Austrian supermodel and movie star with a strenuous childhood, but an optimistic, strong willingness to follow her aspirations, whatever they may be.

Manfred happened to grab her attention while trying to escape two enamoured beach lifeguards. Upon meeting each other, the two hit it off right away, yet it ended up being another short relationship.

Darlene has a childlike playfulness and is talkative, though doesn't say much of substance and kept asking Manfred for confirmation about her beauty in a clumsy thick accent.

### Hotcha Mann

The female German Shepherd from the Minerva Mink comic, "Minervadrama". Has no official name.

Hotcha comes from a long line of hunters and police dogs, which earned her a job without ever having to prove herself.

She was found lurking around Manfred's house one night, with the intention of finding her human master a mink. Because of her good looks, Manfred willingly gave himself up.

Unusual for her breed, Hotcha is lazy, unconcerned, but confident and incredibly lucky. She prioritizes partying or sleeping in, yet always finishes up her assignments with the least effort made. She's not the kind of person to chase her wants and will change goals if the previous one ends up being too much work to realize.

### Bo Prince

The female store clerk from the Minerva Mink comic, "Shopping Beauty". Has no official name.

Bo was born and raised in a simple neighbourhood and shares a home with her father and 4 half-sisters. Though not struggling, the family didn't earn enough money to sustain the lavish life style she and her sisters wanted, and with no incentive to get a job, their father's average budget was quickly drained.

Bo met Manfred who wanted to pay a pair of shades, but she proclaimed to be on a break and unwilling to help. She's lazy and vain, whose love for herself and expensive brands is stronger than that of her family and friends. She doesn't like being touched and speaks her mind to an aggressive degree.

### Callie Gowen

The female passerby from the Minerva Mink comic, "Bombshell". Has no official name.

Callie is the only child of two rural farmers, who long struggled to conceive. As their miracle baby, she was homeschooled and enjoyed little freedom throughout her life.

She was one day approached by Manfred, who was suffering the (literal) explosive effects of a horoscope warning he read that day. He exploded in the arms of his newfound love interest after telling another pursuer to get lost.

Callie is uneducated and takes everything literally, yet is also calm and kind. She'll spend hours just walking around to take in her surroundings after the many years of not being allowed to leave the farm.

### Bayley Lugge

The female candy seller Minerva was competing against in the Minerva Mink comic, "Booth Bait". Has no official name.

Bayley is the daughter of an underage mother from Germany -and presumably underage father- and was adopted by Americans. As a child, she mostly kept to herself and spent her time reading. She was well-liked by everyone, yet there wasn't anyone Bayley could call a friend.

Her foster mother one day asked for a favour, since a friend of hers needed a face for their candy company at an event called "The Widset Expo". Here, she met Manfred, who sat in the booth next to hers and was immediately smitten by her. Because he was being watched by his bosses and still had a job to do, he distracted his potential customers with "free" merchandise, causing the area to enter a frenzy. This gave him time to approach Bayley, who was more concerned with the sudden racket.

Bailey is a friendly, mellow character, greatly liked by everyone she meets.
