687 Tinette was an asteroid in the asteroid belt.[citation needed]

History

During the Reef Wars, it was captured by the beam of the Awoken gravity weapon Carybdis and thrown into 19 Fortuna, where Beltrik, the Veiled of the Fallen House of Wolves had stationed his fleet. Both asteroids shattered upon impact, devastating Beltrik's fleet and securing another victory for the Awoken. The remains of Tinette and Fortuna are occasionally called the Fortuna Plummet, after the battle that took place.[1]
