Woven from the love of the Weaver Witch, Spinstra, Bobbin is nothing less than magical! She aims to one day become the greatest mage from Patchland! Given the reputation of her evil sorcerer uncle, Yin Yarn, and his multiple attempts to take over Patchland and Dreamland alike, Bobbin found herself struggling to break out of his shadow. But upon traveling to Dreamland and befriending Tiff, Meta Knight, and Prince Fluff, she finds that she's far more than a bad guy's niece. While her family history is still complicated, between Yin Yarn's extended relatives and Spinstra's history with NME, Bobbin knows that she defines herself, not the people that came before her. 

Bobbin has a strong love of adventure, be it reading about it from her cozy bedroom or going out into the world for herself. She can constantly be found problem solving with her friends, and she takes great pride in her ability to help, be it in Cappy Town's community center or the weapon forge of Halcandra. While her initial lack of training made her feel small, she's since gained a lot of confidence and pride in her spellcraft. Bobbin's magic is channeled through strands of yarn and her crochet hook (which acts as a wand as well as a melee weapon). She can rearrange the yarn wrapped around her torso and in her buns into different shapes to aid her as tools in battle, commonly using webs to catch people. Trouble is, once she's out of yarn, she's limited in what she can do. Occasionally she will also use this to reshape Fluff and swing him around. She mostly acts as support, empowering her friends. But when she's needed most, Bobbin will step up to the plate to be just as much as a full fledged hero as those around her.

Her claim to fame is studying the Metamortex: the mysterious magic that can transform Kirby and Prince Fluff into all kinds of things: tankbots, trains, dolphins, etc. Bobbin has worked hard to understand and recreate them, as well as craft some original ones of her own.

Metamortex Mage: 

Spinstra was originally made as one of Nightmare's most fearsome classes of Demonbeast, the weaverbeasts, a species built to collect and feed on magic and fear to empower their master. While there are many different classifications of these spidery creatures, Spinstra specifically is a dreamweaver, which specializes in stealing sweet dreams and creating nightmares in their place. Dreamweavers are amongst Nightmare's favorites, as they're some of the closest to himself.

In her youth, Spinstra was a skittish spider, snapping and biting at anything she perceived as a threat. This earned her the nickname of Mangle amongst her peers. Hardly the kind of person you'd expect to betray Nightmare. But upon losing her only friend, Havoc, she found herself growing tired of playing Nightmare's games. So she attempted to help her fellow demonbeasts to escape their base within Nightmare's fleet. While most of them made it to safety, Spinstra was caught, and thus, punished for her crimes against their overlord.

She was thrust into the mantle of Patchland, left to sleep and passively absorb its power for Nightmare to collect later. Nightmare reasoned that if she wouldn't serve him willingly, it was more useful to break her, use her up until she could bear no more, whilst crippling the planet that had given him such a headache in this war. As a result of being thrust inside of Patchland, her body has been permanently altered to be yarn forever. Almost as though some of the planet's magic has become a part of her very fibers.

Spinstra's saving grace came in the form of a polycule of three kindly sorcerers: Woolfgang the Wise, Quilton the Cozy, and Fiyarno the Frayed. They freed her from the planet's grasp and took her in, adopting her as one of their own. The spellcrafting community of Patchland welcomed her with open arms, seeing an opportunity to turn Nightmare's forces against him. She learned a great deal from them, becoming a healer and mender for their forces, and capturing the same dreams she used to create. She found particular closeness with Aida Rose (an embroidery witch), Patchrick (a badge maker), and Claridee (a waddle dee who gained clairvoyant visions).

As time went on, Spinstra worked with Fiyarno on a project: using the genetics of demonbeasts to try and build a poison for Nightmare, a sleeper agent, if you will. Something that could infiltrate his forces and and free the demonbeasts from his control (as, a monster's proximity to Nightmare means he gains more control over their mind). Using both Spinstra's materials and pieces of fallen monsters from the battlefield, they ran several experiments, but none of them ever managed to come to fruition. Their eighth attempt, utilizing a very different methodology from the others, was the first to breathe and survive. The first with a complete soul to call her own. But even that project was not suited for their needs. And so, the idea was abandoned, and they continued to work on other plans to take out the evil overlord.

The spellcasting community on Patchland lost many members in her lifetime, but it also gained some: a new generation slowly spinning into being. Spinstra became a mother, pouring all of her love into her greatest creation: Bobbin Octavia Bobble. She is overprotective of her daughter and still learning when to let go of those reins, but time has found her fighting to find the balance. Bobbin is so dear to her, and after a nasty demonbeast attack that almost left her daughter broken and magicless, it was hard to let her out of her sight. Or at least, out of the sight of those she trusted.

Bobbin ended up under the care of her uncles more often than not, as Spinstra ended up being promoted to head witch by the royal family. With so much newfound responsibility and the war still being waged, Spinstra found herself overwhelmed. She couldn't see what was right in front of her, as Fiyarno continued to succumb to a mental decline and a horrible curse. When the battle came to be that resulted in Fiyarno and Quilton becoming Yin Yarn...after they drove Nightmare off the planet, she was not prepared for the evil they would unleash onto their world.

Spinstra was used against Meta Knight during Yin Yarn's takeover of Patchland. (Her memory is hazy of the events, but it would make for a very awkward time later.) Once she finally returned to her senses, upon Yin Yarn's defeat, she pleaded with the royal family to have a chance at rehabilitating him. He was once two sorcerers that stood up for her and tried to give her a chance, the least she could do was return the favor. Yin Yarn...was not good at doing as she asked, he was so mad, so rotten in his aching heart, and it hurt everyone in their home. To the point where Bobbin ran away to try and find a hero to defeat him for good. Thus, leading to Spinstra having to finally give up on her brothers in law. Her daughter got hurt one too many times, she could not risk it any longer.

Presently, Spinstra is trying to balance motherhood, repairing the magic community on Patchland, and a myriad of chronic pains and poor body functionality as a result of too much magic absorption. She can't move around very well, on account of her aching limbs and being too tall for most structures. But she will often astral project in a smaller form. She risks burning herself out more other than not, but she feels like she has to, or else everything around her will collapse. She's paranoid about NME returning to her planet to destroy everything she loves, and it's motivated her to continue learning all she can to combat them.
