Tinka is one of the Muses created by master Spark van Rijn for the Storm King. She is a dancer. Along with her sister Moxana, she hid her true nature for twenty years by traveling with Master Payne's Circus of Adventure, posing as a simple sideshow oddity, until she was recognized for what she truly was by Tarvek and taken to be a model for the clank body he built for his dying sister. The comic does not make it clear exactly how it happened, but Tinka ended up damaged, just barely able to walk and talk. Her current condition and whereabouts remain a mystery.
