===''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''===
After Tinker Bell is captured by [[Captain Hook]], Terra tricks the pirate into handing him her cage, and releases her.
When [[Ventus]] arrives at Never Land, he accompanies Tinker Bell to find [[Mickey]]'s [[Star Shard]]. She is captured by [[Captain Hook]], who then takes her to show [[Terra]] at Skull Rock. Terra tricks Hook into handing her Tinker Bell's cage, and frees her, allowing her to rejoin Ventus and Peter Pan. After Hook's defeat, Ventus asks Tinker Bell to return the Star Shard. She reluctantly agrees at Peter Pan's request.


Later, Ventus arrives at Never Land and runs into the pixie. He is stunned by her beauty, but discovers that she is holding an item his friend had misplaced, a Starcrystal. Ventus then politely asked for her to hand it over to him. She refuses, and turns to fly away, but after a stern warning from Peter Pan, she reluctantly returns it to Ven.  She is also shown kicking him, knocking him over and later being caught by Captain Hook. Later on, when Aqua arrives and tries to join Peter Pan's hunt for treasure, she disapproves but reluctantly gives in after Peter Pan argues with her.

Tinker Bell is introduced to [[Sora]], [[Donald Duck|Donald]], and [[Goofy]] when they meet Peter Pan in the hold of Captain Hook's galleon. Tinker Bell informs Peter that she has located [[Wendy]] (she, however, has a deep jealousy for Wendy, due to her growing relationship with Peter, much to Donald's amusement). Tinker Bell later sprinkles the trio with her pixie dust for later use of flight. Peter rescues Wendy and flies off somewhere, leaving Tinker Bell and the others to fight for themselves.

Tinker Bell, from Sora's memories, appears in the Neverland floor in Castle Oblivion. Tinker Bell is first seen in the beginning when Sora, Donald, and Goofy entered Captain Hook's ship. She took the three to see Peter Pan to help him find Wendy on the ship. After the fight with Captain Hook, Tinker Bell sees Sora and the others and gives them her summon card.

When [[Roxas]] was sent out to eliminate a [[Wavecrest]] [[Heartless]] in [[Neverland]], he soon met Tinker Bell. Tinker Bell then asked Roxas for help to stop Captain Hook and Smee's plan. She gave him the ability to fly, she then flew to Hook's ship. Sometime later, Roxas and [[Axel]] came to Neverland to eliminate [[Artful Flyer]]s. They soon met up with Tinker Bell, who was mad at Roxas for not following her last time he came. She soon helped Roxas and Axel fly, thinking that they might help her this time. She then flew off, with Roxas behind her, he was soon stopped by Axel to continue their mission.

[[Roxas]] first meets Tinker Bell on a mission to eliminate a [[Wavecrest]] [[Heartless]] in [[Neverland]]. Tinker Bell asks Roxas for help to stop Captain Hook and Smee's plan, gives him the ability to fly, then flies off toward Captain Hook's ship.  


A few days later, Roxas returned to Neverland to eliminate a [[Phantomtail]]. Shortly after his arrival, he witnessed the capture of Tinker Bell by Hook and Smee and returned to their ship. Roxas, deciding to hold off his mission until she was safe, snuck into Hook's ship. After Hook and Smee left Hook's cabin, Roxas snuck into the cabin and released Tink from the lamp. Tink then showed Roxas a piece of a map that Hook had torn apart, which had a circle marked on it, showing where one of the treasures that Smee dug up was. Needing to look at that spot marked on the map piece, Roxas asked Tinker Bell if she could help him fly again.
In a later mission, Roxas and [[Axel]] go to Neverland to eliminate [[Artful Flyer]]s. They soon meet Tinker Bell, who, though angry at Roxas for not following her the previous mission, gives Roxas and Axel the ability to fly, and flies off again. Roxas wishes to follow Tinker Bell, but Axel reminds him to focus on their own mission.


Agreeing with his question, Tink helped Roxas fly again, and she soon flew off to safety after Roxas advised her to. The next day, Roxas returned to eliminate an unknown heartless threat. Tink soon appeared again, giving him the ability to fly again and defeat the [[Ruler of the Sky]]. After the Ruler of the Sky's defeat, it then crashed landed on to Hook's ship and badly damaged it, much to Tink's enjoyment.
Several months later, Roxas returns to Neverland to eliminate a [[Phantomtail]]. Shortly after his arrival, he sees Hook and Smee capture Tinker Bell and take her aboard the ship. Roxas sneaks into Hook's ship, and releases Tinker Bell from the lamp in which she is imprisoned. Tink shows Roxas a piece of a map that Hook had torn apart, marking the location of a treasure chest which Smee had uncovered. Roxas decides to investigate, and asks Tinker Bell to allow him to fly again. She agrees, and flies off.
 
The next day, Roxas returns once more to eliminate an unknown Heartless threat. Tinker Bell appears again, giving Roxas the ability to fly. After Roxas defeats the [[Ruler of the Sky]], the Heartless crash-lands onto Hook's ship and badly damages it, much to Tinker Bell's enjoyment.

Tinker Bell returns with Peter Pan as a summonable character, after Sora finds the [[Feather Charm]] in [[Port Royal]], maintaining the same healing factor she did previously.


==Appearance==
==Design==
Tinker Bell is a very tiny female pixie that has blonde hair tied into a bun on the top of her head by a blue ribbon (dark blue in ''Kingdom Hearts''). She has pale skin, black eyebrows, and blue eyes and wings. Tinker Bell wears a short, green, strapless dress and green slippers, each sporting a white puffball on the front. She also often has a gold glow or sparkle around her, the result of her pixie dust.

She also often has a gold glow or sparkle around her, the result of her pixie dust.


==Personality==
==Personality==
Tinker Bell has shown her stubbornness in many instances. The first was when she unwilling to hand over the Starcrystal to Ventus and then she gets mad at Roxas for not following her. She is also very jealous of Wendy because of her affection for Peter. Despite her temper, she has also shown many times when she is loyal to Peter and other parties, mostly when she teaches many people to fly. She has also demonstrated this when she eventually gave the Starcrystal to Ventus after Peter's nagging, assisted Wendy's rescue (though she done so reluctantly) and continued to try to thwart Captain Hook's plans after Roxas' ignorance.
Tinker Bell has a stubborn and childlike disposition. She is very attached to Peter Pan, and quickly becomes jealous whenever he is with another girl, particularly Wendy. She tends to act defensive when called out on her jealousy, as shown when Donald comments about Tinker Bell's jealousy of Wendy's affection for Peter in ''Kingdom Hearts''. Tinker Bell is also short-tempered, expressing annoyance when Roxas fails to accompany her to explore Captain Hook's ship in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''.  
 
Despite this, she is caring and loyal to Peter Pan and his friends, particularly in granting Sora, Roxas, and Ventus the ability to fly. In ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', when Tinker Bell is reluctant to hand over Mickey's Star Shard to Ventus, she complies when Peter tells her to relinquish the shard. In ''Kingdom Hearts'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', she accompanies Peter Pan in rescuing Wendy, despite her evident jealousy of her.
 
Tinker Bell takes enjoyment from the misfortunes of those she dislikes. This can be seen in her treatment of Donald in ''Kingdom Hearts'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''. In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', Tinker Bell can be seen visibly giggling after the Ruler of the Sky crashes into Captain Hook's ship.


==Abilities==
==Abilities==
In ''Kingdom Hearts'', when summoned, Tinker Bell's appearance is different from the other summons. For one, party members remain on the battlefield and Tinker Bell doesn't vanish after a certain amount of time. Instead she remains with Sora, continuously healing him and his allies until dismissed (similar to Regen from the ''Final Fantasy'' series), and reviving him once upon death (provided that Sora does not get hit the second his HP hits 0, Tinker Bell will fully recover Sora's HP, similar to the Auto-Life from the ''Final Fantasy'' series and ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'').
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
[[File:Tinker Bell (Summon) KH.gif|thumb|left|200px|Tinker Bell being summoned by Sora.]]
Tinker Bell appears as a [[Summon]] after clearing Neverland. Unlike other Summons, party members remain on the battlefield while she is active, and she does not disappear after a set amount of time. When summoned, she remains at Sora's side, continuously healing the party akin to the [[Regen]] status effect as long as she is active until she is dismissed or if Sora loses all of his HP, in which case she will fully restore his HP akin to [[Auto-Life]].
{{-}}
 
===''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''===
[[File:Tinker Bell (card).png|right]]
Tinker Bell appears as a [[summon card]] after clearing [[Neverland]]'s [[Room of Truth]]. When her card is used, Tinker Bell arrives and heals Sora over a set time period. Stocking multiple Tinker Bell cards create the [[Twinkle Lv2]] and [[Twinkle Lv3]] sleights, which increase the amount of health restored if the player consecutively taps {{button|t}} when prompted.  


In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', however, since she comes along with Peter she only stays during the duration of the Summon Gauge. Her ability acts the same as it did in ''Kingdom Hearts''.
Tinker Bell is essential in the [[Confuse]] sleight. Additionally, Tinker Bell can be used as part of magic sleights that require the use of any summon card, including [[Gifted Miracle]], [[Tornado]], and [[Terror]].
 
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Tinker Bell appears alongside Peter Pan, and only stays active for the duration of the Summon Gauge. As in ''Kingdom Hearts'', she continuously heals Sora until Peter Pan is dismissed or the Summon Gauge fully depletes. She will fully heal Sora once if he falls in battle, and will not heal him after that until the Summon ends.


==Origin==
==Origin==
Tinker Bell originated from J. M. Barrie's 1904 play and 1911 novel ''{{w|Peter and Wendy}}''. Barrie's play was the inspiration for the 1953 Disney movie ''{{w|Peter Pan (1953 film)|Peter Pan}}''. In the film, Tinker Bell was the pixie companion of the title character Peter Pan. She accompanied Peter on his journey to the Darling house where she (unwillingly) helped Peter teach the Darling children to fly to Neverland. Later, Captain Hook took advantage of Tinker Bells jealousy over the relationship between Peter Pan and Wendy Darling and he tricked Tinker Bell into revealing the hiding place of Peter and his friends. Tinker Bell later risked her life to save Peter Pan from Hook and although she was injured, she recovered in time to return the Darling children home.

Sora gains Tinker Bell as a summon.

After returning to Neverland, Tinker Bell tells Sora and Peter of the Phantom Heartless at the clock tower.

Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories[edit]

Tinker Bell, from Sora's memories, appears in the Neverland floor in Castle Oblivion. Tinker Bell is first seen in the beginning when Sora, Donald, and Goofy enter Captain Hook's ship. She takes the three to see Peter Pan to help him find Wendy. After the fight against Captain Hook, Tinker Bell sees Sora and the others and gives them her summon card.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days[edit]

Tinker Bell gives Axel and Roxas the ability of flight.

Roxas first meets Tinker Bell on a mission to eliminate a Wavecrest Heartless in Neverland. Tinker Bell asks Roxas for help to stop Captain Hook and Smee's plan, gives him the ability to fly, then flies off toward Captain Hook's ship.

In a later mission, Roxas and Axel go to Neverland to eliminate Artful Flyers. They soon meet Tinker Bell, who, though angry at Roxas for not following her the previous mission, gives Roxas and Axel the ability to fly, and flies off again. Roxas wishes to follow Tinker Bell, but Axel reminds him to focus on their own mission.

Several months later, Roxas returns to Neverland to eliminate a Phantomtail. Shortly after his arrival, he sees Hook and Smee capture Tinker Bell and take her aboard the ship. Roxas sneaks into Hook's ship, and releases Tinker Bell from the lamp in which she is imprisoned. Tink shows Roxas a piece of a map that Hook had torn apart, marking the location of a treasure chest which Smee had uncovered. Roxas decides to investigate, and asks Tinker Bell to allow him to fly again. She agrees, and flies off.

The next day, Roxas returns once more to eliminate an unknown Heartless threat. Tinker Bell appears again, giving Roxas the ability to fly. After Roxas defeats the Ruler of the Sky, the Heartless crash-lands onto Hook's ship and badly damages it, much to Tinker Bell's enjoyment.

Kingdom Hearts II[edit]

Tinker Bell returns with Peter Pan as a summonable character, after Sora finds the Feather Charm in Port Royal, maintaining the same healing factor she did previously.

Design[edit]

Tinker Bell is a very tiny female pixie that has blonde hair tied into a bun on the top of her head by a blue ribbon (dark blue in Kingdom Hearts). She has pale skin, black eyebrows, and blue eyes and wings. Tinker Bell wears a short, green, strapless dress and green slippers, each sporting a white puffball on the front. She also often has a gold glow or sparkle around her, the result of her pixie dust.

Tinker Bell is essential in the Confuse sleight. Additionally, Tinker Bell can be used as part of magic sleights that require the use of any summon card, including Gifted Miracle, Tornado, and Terror.

Kingdom Hearts II[edit]

In Kingdom Hearts II, Tinker Bell appears alongside Peter Pan, and only stays active for the duration of the Summon Gauge.
