Nips is a member of the Wood Forgers and disciple and follower of Zig. He is highly proficient in the mystic art of paper magic as well as being one of the students of the established School of Paper Arts.
He and fellow disciple Gami are staunch followers of Zig, obeying his every command. Like his master, he too has been overcome by the lust for power and has no qualms about the Wood Forgers cutting down trees at an alarming rate and endangering the very existence of the Forest of Magi Oar just so that they could have an endless suplly of paper to use for their magic.
He helped Zig to keep the true protector of the forest, Viragor, at bay using their magical paper while they continue to strip the forest of its trees. He assists Zig when he and Gami pretend to rescue the ThunderCats from the Forest Spirits which they falsely claim to be evil.
Later however, Lion-O realizes that Viragor is the protector of the forest while the Wood Forgers are evil. With the truth revealed, the ThunderCats then help Viragor to defeat the Wood Forgers and Nips and the other Wood Forgers are forced out of the forest for good.
