Mintleaf

Appearance
Mintleaf is an average-sized tom cat who is a very handsome pale gray and cream tabby. He has dark amber eyes and long whiskers that make for a feminine-like feature for his face. He has a thick, short pelt, and a tail that has faint stripes going down it.

Personality
Mintleaf is incredibly patient and thorough thinker. He only speaks when he is sure of his thoughts, and is noted to be very calm and collect. He isn't seen as shy, nor does he put himself out there, but his quiet demeanor makes cats think that he is often times weak. He is more focused on his warrior career than his personal wants, but that doesn't stop she-cats from trying to flirt with him.

Appearance in Books
The Cursed Blood : The Wild Flames

Mintleaf does not formally appear, but he is listed in the allegiances as recently birthed by Shimmertail with his littermates Wiltkit and Dampkit.

The Cursed Blood : The Shadow Fold

In Chapter Eight, Mintleaf is now a warrior and has been given Featherpaw as an apprentice.

The Coming : Into the Storm

In Chapter One, Mintleaf awkwardly addresses Driftstar's declaration of taking back the marshland they had lost to NightClan moons upon moons ago by reminding the leader that the Clans have experienced heavy rain fall during newleaf, which makes marshes and even bogs dangerous to walk through, even for skilled warriors. Driftstar shoots back a question, daring Mintleaf to answer as he asks if he thinks the warrior is a fool. Wisely, Mintleaf does not answer as Driftstar continues his rant.

In Chapter Two, it mentions Mintleaf as being Feathersplash's mentor, and how the two instantly hit it off and are still seen as good friends, even with the mentorship ending.

In Chapter Six, Mintleaf is mentioned to have saved Firstorm from a young NightClan warrior that had ambushed their patrol. He ordered her to flee with her squirrel, while he stayed and fought them off until the rest of his patrol could leave, or obtain back up.

In Chapter Eleven, Mintleaf is mentioned as a good potential mate for Firstorm by Poolfur, and that he is a good warrior to get to know.

The Coming : Hunters and Hunted

In Chapter Twenty Two, Mintleaf is the head of the StreamClan patrol that meets Firstar and her queens and kits that have come to take shelter in StreamClan. As he begins to lead the cats through the swollen stream, he notices that Fig is attempting to leap across with a bundle of herbs in his jaws, and as the tom leaps, he catches the cat by his scruff, staggering onto the other side of the stream and dropping the large kitten just as he looses his balance and falls onto his side.

In Chapter Twenty Four, Mintleaf is in the center of a cluster of StreamClan warriors consisting of Riverfur, Leafnose, and Minnowleaf, as the cats wait for the battle with the Hunters to finally erupt in the Gathering Place.

The Coming : Eye of the Storm

In Chapter Twenty Eight, it is mentioned by Riverfur that Mintleaf is now the deputy of StreamClan, as he and Milkstar think a lot alike. Riverfur continues to say that Mintleaf was a great choice, and that he is doing a good job.

Trivia

 * Mintleaf never got a mate because he wasn't interested. With how much he thinks and analyzes, he figured that he'd say the wrong thing and get his mate mad at him often, so he never bothered.
 * He also doesn't think that he'd make a good father.
 * There is currently no cat in the Clans that he is remotely interested in, despite being flirted with daily.
