'''Wilkins''' is an early ''Muppet'' character created in 1957 by Jim Henson. He mostlyis appearedbest known for appearing in a series of 8-second commercialsskits advertising the local coffee brand '''Wilkins Coffee''' alongside with his partner [[Wontkins]]. Wilkins is a outwardly cheerful, puke yellow frog-liketoad creaturemuppet who '''will''' drink Wilkins Coffee, while Wontkins is a grumpy, red blob creature who '''won't'''. Many commercials depict Wilkins subjecting Wontkins into various acts of violence whenranging thefrom latterblunt saystrauma heand doesn't wantgunshots to drinkliterally thesummoning coffee,a suchhuman asleg hittingto himcrush withthe a club or hammervictim, shootingall himbecause withhe arefused gun,to ordrink lettingthe himdamn fall to his deathcoffee.

The commercials gained popularity online during the 2010's when it became notable for its unusually violent content for a puppet show. The ads have since been compiled together on several video hosting websites such as YouTube.

Wilkins becamegained notedprominence in 2020 whenas hean became a prominentimportant character in [[Mr. /co/lympus]] and [[Tag-Team]] lore, becoming the main subject of a story arc named the "Cult of Wilkins". As a competitor, Wilkins is yet to qualify for a Mr. /co/lympus tournament. In [[Tag-Team 2020]] he and Wontkins advanced into the last 16, where they were eliminated by the devilish ''Dapper Dealers'' [[Bill Cipher]] and [[Alastor]].

During [[Tag-Team Tournament 2021]], while Wilkins initially took his usual threat based approach, [[Vriska Serket]] cut a deal with Wilkins after the results of the qualifiers were announced, offering him a cut of her power in exchange for killing [[Star Butterfly]], [[Gertrude the Gruesome]], and The [[The Emperor of Mankind|God Emperor of Mankind]].

Just as victory for him and his master seemed inmminent, Wilkins lost by a single vote(ironically given by his main supporter, who had turned on Wilkins), therefore breaking his side of the extended deal with Vriska. Vriska promptly sent Wilkins to hell, where he remains to this day.
