Blink

Blink is a mole and a nephew of the Professor. He first appears in both Crash Bandicoot Purple: Ripto's Rampage and Spyro Orange: The Cortex Conspiracy, where he has a minor role and is named Blinky. Blink's first major appearance in Spyro: A Hero's Tail, where Spyro first encounters him when he has to rescue Blink from a cage in Crocovile Swamp.

Blink loves to be underground, citing "fresh-air-a-phobia" as his reason, along with being a mole. He is a friendly character who helps Spyro defeat Red the Dragon. Blink is sometimes called "Blinky". Blink is strong and he can do punches and butt bounces. Blink has strong lasers that can defeat most enemies. If the enemies are strong, he can just simply bomb them or zap them with a laser. Blink also has first person targeting goggles, which can detect enemies and can zoom in up to five times than normal (which helps with aiming lasers as well). Blink might say things like "Can I explore below ground?" or "You know I love it down there."
