Leekpaw

Leekpaw is a stocky cream cat with dark markings and round yellow eyes. They decorate their pelt with plants and flowers depending on the season.
Leekpaw is an Eagleclan apprentice training under Crowsong. They are mild-mannered and timid, making up for what they lack in physical strength in wit and intelligence. They are anxious and an overthinker by nature, the direct opposite of their bombastic and energetic brother, Beanpaw.
===History===
Leekkit and Beankit were born to Appleblossom and Snailtrail, who were simply unfit to be parents. They had a very cruel and harsh upbringing, and while Snailtrail was largely absent, Appleblossom forced her kits to pursue a goal of perfection that was ultimately unreachable. 
During their kithood, Beankit was present at the death of the deputy, Snakewind. He was left carrying the guilt, and Leekkit did what they could to support their brother despite their parents' increasing abuse. The siblings made it to apprenticeship, and Leekpaw pushed forth with their training under their father, Snailtrail, who had no patience for Leekpaw's anxiety and gentle nature. 
When the siblings were seven moons old, things took a turn. In a fit of anger, Snailtrail had attempted to kill Leekpaw, threatening them with a death over Eagle's Drop and leaving them covered in small wounds. Leekpaw had escaped and fled to Beanpaw and Vulturewatch, confessing immediately what had happened. When challenged and attacked by Beanpaw, Snailtrail gave his son much the same treatment, leaving him with a heavy injury across his face. Vulturewatch had attacked Snailtrail then, furiously defending his apprentice. 
A few days after the altercation, Snailtrail and Appleblossom both went missing. They have not been seen since, and Leekpaw and Beanpaw wait anxiously to see if they will return, though they thrive in their parents' absences. Leekpaw is, while still anxious, more comfortable to play and have fun with their siblings and friends, and remains extremely close to their brother. Leekpaw only hopes that, as they train into a full warrior, they grow to be better than their father. 
Following Snailtrail's disappearance, Leekpaw was reassigned Crowsong as their mentor, and has since been thriving under his kind discipline.
