==Story==
thumb|262x262px|In "Goodbye", Daryll, Flint and another bandit are hired by the Frostbourne as manpower for an attack.
Flint first appeared in "Goodbye". In the episode, the located the wither skeletons' camp and planned an attack to destroy the enemies stationed there. Patrick Wynter, the Grandmaster of the Frostbourne, decided to hire bandits as manpower as he had lost too many soldiers in a previous battle.
Flint and another hired gun are led by Daryll during the attack. The three bandits accompany Patrick, Azura and Stella. They successfully clear the camp of the wither skeletons with no casualties. However, a group of undead soldiers led by Herobrine try to take back the camp. Screaming, Flint barrages the zombies with gunfire. The Frostbourne are about to lose and the other bandit is killed before the appear to help them, defeating the enemy forces.
Flint has a cameo in "Wings of Salvation" — he and Daryll appear at a Frostbourne meeting, but he does not speak. The attendees debate whether it is too risky or not for Azura to attack an enemy camp alone.
He later appears in "We are the Danger XL". Preparing for an attack on the Frostbourne Castle by the Wither Angels, Azura visits the Frostbourne Tavern to recruit Flint and Maya, as almost all of the army was away. She interrupted their idle chat and threw Flint a beacon gun. Flint and Syphion commanded one of two small platoons during the assault. Azura was about to pursue their leader into a Nether Portal until she saw Flint struggling and almost rushed back. Flint implored her to not worry about them and get the End Crystal. By "You Can Do Better", the Wither Angels had overpowered the Frostbourne, who were forced back to the residential area. Flint was about to be killed until he was saved by an old friend, the gunslinging hitwoman Ava.
==Personality==
TBA
==Skills==
Flint has been shown to be highly proficient with the submachine gun. In Goodbye, he can be seen blasting down wither skeletons alongside the other bandits, and holding out against Herobrine's onslaught of enemies until the Ender Watchers arrived. In We are the Danger XL, we see him able to hold his own against multiple opponents at a time, both through shooting them down, and using his gun to parry melee attacks that come his way.
Flint presumably has proficiency in wielding halberds as well, as he brought one alongside him in Goodbye, though he has never been seen using it on-screen.
===Weapons===
"Goodbye" was Flint's first appearance in a battle. His primary weapon of choice is a bulky submachine gun. In "Goodbye", Flint had also carried a halberd (a type of pole weapon) on his back, but as of lately, Flint no longer carries such a weapon.

===Behind the scenes ===
When he appeared in "Goodbye" and "Wings and Salvation", Flint was an unnamed side character. He was the only recurring character in the Frostbourne without a name. Many fans either called him the unnamed bandit or came up with names for the character in their headcanon — production team member Dexter Kronos named the character Gary or Tanner, and the former was used in fanon works.https://discord.com/channels/478232666781646889/795858792143257631/1082778619417477140https://discord.com/channels/478232666781646889/795858792143257631/1019607027200311366 Rainimator confirmed that the bandit was alive in March 2023.https://discord.com/channels/478232666781646889/795858792143257631/1081198972514881586
