After further testing, it looks like 

        $TicketObj->Create(
                            Queue => "Inventory",
                            Owner => $creator,
                            Parent => $id, #parent bit fails
                        );

does not work. 

No Parent link is being created, nor reciprocal Children links created.

Hence my question about creating links.

I'm trying to do it the *obvious* way. That the RT API does not provide
an interface for me to do it the obvious way is a reflection on the code base,
not on me. 

If done properly, what I'm asking how to do should be one line of code:

	$Ticket->RunScrip()

with a possible optional parameter of an associated template.
