## History

Originally being named Mintkit, after his father, he was born to Fernheart and Mintsplash in Year 8, along with his brother and sister, Darkkit and Eaglekit. He was the favorite of his father, as he looked almost like him, and he even named Mintkit after him. Once he became an apprentice, his mentor became Oakspring, who focused on more happy-go-lucky vibes, rather than actual training, and Mintpaw didn't think the experience was very thrilling. He actually hated his father, despite being named and favored by him, and hated the way he treated his mother, Fernheart.

In Year 9, Mintpaw becomes a warrior, and is renamed to Sagedust, on his own request. He enjoyed the look of betrayal on Mintsplash's face when he did. He mended his relationship with Oakspring, and now he, sometimes, even makes Sagedust laugh with his silly antics. He was furious when he learned of the extent of his father's crimes, and became even more self-conscious that he resembled him, but the clan is really nice to him, and doesn't see him just for his dad. He vowed to protect his mother, and is a total "mama's boy," that can go from looking grumpy, to smiling and laughing when he's with her.

In Year 10, During the battle, Sagedust was hurt pretty bad by Duskmouse, when his sister, Eaglestrike, was distracted by the nervous Lakepaw attacking her. She got a bunch of bites and scratches on him, but nothing that had scarred over, or was permanent. He was also given herbs by Oakspring, his mentor, this year, to celebrate the birthing of his and Mothblaze's litter. He had bonded more with Brightstar as well, since him and Sagedust's mother, Fernheart, had become mates this year. They went on a patrol, and they bonded over both having a parent in the dark forest (Frecklespot and Mintsplash respectively), and Brightstar told him that he will be a great cat, and that led to Sagedust believing he was meant for something greater, until he immediately gained a mangled leg from a twoleg-trap. Other than that, he was destroying rouges and chasing them out a lot, and his year was overall up-and-down, but he did good providing for the clan. He also trained his only apprentice, Butterflypaw, who got too close to a skunk on her first patrol, despite his attempts to stop her.

In Year 11, When Fernheart was strested about her newly-born daughter, Hopekit, being missing during the fire, both Sagedust and Darkwhistle rush into the nursery to save her, while their sister, Eaglestrike, goes out into the camp to look for her. They yell to Brightstar to "get their mom to safety," and find Hopekit on a high ledge, where she couldn't have gotten to by herself. Sagedust leans up to grab her, but gets trapped when falling debris traps his leg, and fire surrounds him. He can see Darkwhistle beyond the flames, and throws Hopekit to him, saving her, and leaving himself to burn. Other than the fire, he got a mangled tail from a dog.

## Trivia

* Mintsplash was furious when he died, as he was the only son he had cared about.
