Tina is a sweet, fun loving and down to earth woman, with a very outgoing personality. She can talk to just about anyone as long as she can get a good read on the kind of person they are first. It’s difficult not to get along with her due to this, no matter what she will find some sort of common ground or interest she can bounce a conversation off of. She’s also always willing to lend sympathy and understanding to someone who might need some.

Despite her rather dreary situation she is also quite the optimist, it doesn’t matter what the problem is, she can still find some sort of bright side. Rain on beach day? No problem, let's go catch a movie instead! Spilled red wine on a white dress? Let’s try dying it a fun new color! Though this can also be to a fault, she doesn’t like to talk about some of the more… difficult feelings she has inside of her. Bringing the mood down is the last thing she wants right now.

Tina ended up staying in Los Santos under unfortunate circumstances. Wanting to get away from her hectic homelife as the only child still living at home, her boyfriend at the time offered her an out; come with him to start a new life in los santos! What could possibly go wrong! Accepting the offer she eloped to Los Santos with him in the hopes of starting a new life together and becoming a singer. While things were doing good the first month or so she was dumped and kicked out onto the street the moment the next best thing came around.

Fed up with both her ex and her homelife, she decided to stay in Los Santos for now, but she needed a job. badly. Lucky for her the vanilla unicorn were hiring, sure it wasn’t glamorous but she was simply happy to have a job! There are also lots of interesting customers and people who swing by, like a man with bright red hair and an unforgettable mustache… Though he was booed out the door before he barely stepped in. Tina thought it was a shame he left so quickly, he was quite handsome! After couch surfing with a couple of coworkers she even managed to get her own apartment at Pillbox hill, however while cleaning out her closet she was… bitten… by something. At first it was of no concern, just a bug bite, but after some time the bites started mutating into something more concerning.

After a good few tests at the doctor the only thing they could gander from her dusty growths, was that she's experiencing some sort of strange mutated necrosis. It apparently spreads itself from hot spots and slowly breaks down the body until… Well let’s not think about that for now. She still has to work! Los Santos rent isn’t going to pay itself, even if she is slowly rotting to death.

One day while working she even spots that mysterious mustached man again, this time he seems to be here for work, Apparently his name is Milo Milo. Not wanting to let the opportunity pass her by, she decides to flirt a little with him. I mean why not? He’s even more handsome up close. Without warning one thing leads to another and she ends up falling completely head over heels in love with him. Sure she had tried dating before but no one really clicked quite like Milo. Slowly being introduced to all those who surround him and learning all about him. Things might be finally looking up for her, a wonderful boyfriend, new friends and new experiences!

As her condition slowly worsens, she reaches several breaking points. Losing her arm, the rot spreading to her face and chest… And of course losing her eyesight. Though what plagues her the most during this time is Milo, she can’t reach him. She knows his job is dangerous but she doesn’t want to fear for the worst. Though when he finally returns something seems off. Like something terrible happened. She can’t see it on his face but she can feel it. More than anything she wishes she were healthy not for her own sake but for his, maybe if she just had a little more energy she could support him better.

• - Her name is based on a multitude of things: Tineola bisselliella (common clothes moth) which is the bug she was bit by, Ovaltine (A brand of malt milk powder) and Tina Grey (A Nightmare on Elm street)
• - Originally she was going to be an alien! Gnarp Gnarp!
• - She was also originally supposed to be a part of “death's head” However I retconned this because I didn’t want her to die (The irony is not lost on me.)
• - She was designed intuitively to the song “Dead Girl Superstar” by Rob Zombie
• - If you get into the nitty gritty of things she is closer to a stereotypical depiction of a mummy than a zombie, with the dust and eventually lack of organs. However she is meant to be a clothes moth zombie. Don’t forget to dust your closets regularly everyone!
