Tinker is a minor character from the Twisted Metal television series.
Appearance[]
She is a Caucasian woman with a proesthetic left arm, and has long hair in a top bun style with several screwdrivers skewered through it. She is also seen in the final battle with a double bun hairstyle. She also has another screwdriver attached to a keychain on the right side of her head. She wears black lipstick, a grey suit, grey pants, a tie, and has a cross necklace.
Personality[]
Tinker is a kind machinist, but can also be prepared for battle as she is seen in the final battle with a machinegun.
Relationships[]
The Convoy[]
She appears to be a very trusted member of the Convoy, with her being brought along to the final battle alongside Miranda Watts and Amber Rose. She also saved Amber when she was shot in the neck. After she dies, they wish revenge upon their enemies, when beforehand they did not want to get involved.
Quiet[]
She had a brief interaction with Quiet, where she gave one of her prosthetic fingers to her for free.
History[]
Tinker was an amputee mechanic aboard the Convoy. When she met Quiet, she briefly inquired about her missing middle finger before offering her a prosthesis. After Granny Dread's funeral, she is seen giving stimulants to people at the afterparty, and later dancing.
Tinker and Amber on Juggernaut.
When John and Quiet were fighting Agent Stone and his men at the Midtown Raceway, she was an armed passenger aboard Juggernaut as Amber Rose drove. After a bullet broke through the windshield and pierced Amber's neck, Tinker addressed the wound with a collar. She was killed when Sweet Tooth fired a volley of rockets at the vehicle.
Trivia[]
- Like Loud, the name "Tinker" is never said in the show, only appearing in the credits.
- According to Angel Giuffria in an interview done by Twisted Metal Kompanion, Tinker was only written to appear in one episode, but the writers liked her enough that they ended up including her in more episodes.[1]
- In the same interview, Angel mentions that she originally auditioned for Miranda Watts instead of Tinker.[1]
