Appearance
Minnow is a small and rather slender she-cat with clear blue eyes. Her fur is rather short, but surprisingly soft to the touch and also quite thick, not showing much of the skin underneath it. She has a snowshoe-like fur pattern, with her face markings slightly different from the usual. A spot covers her mouth, nose, and a part of her face as well.
Her build is clearly that of a prey-hunter, there is no doubt there. She has no muscular looks whatsoever and is definitely made to run and avoid, rather than to fight and confront.

Minnow is someone who likes the set goals for herself to reach, which shows some type of ambition, and she is able to keep working towards that goal, no matter the times she fails, until she has finally reached it. Even though let-downs can set her back for a while, she usually picks up her pieces rather quickly after a short moment of possibly crying about it and gathering her thoughts. She is intelligent in a way that she can learn new things with some effort and her curiousity helps her to keep learning in life.
This she-cat tends to think of herself as an introvert, but many of her personality aspects might actually come off as being extrovert. When meeting new cats, she has lots to say and is ready to get to know them, although she might be a bit guarded and closed at first, she can become a rather good and open friend for anyone who is kind towards her.
Her humor can be considered terrible, consisting of bad word jokes and other random things she does during the day. She tends to laugh about herself, often announcing that if you don't even like your own jokes, then what is the point of making them? She also tends to laugh when someone falls down or something clumsy happens (even if it happens to herself), but after a short fit of laughter, she is ready to lend you a helping paw and support you.
Minnow is also a true perfectionist. She is never quite satisfied with her own work, and if there wasn't a part of her that also wishes for a lot of free time, she would keep on working on one task forever (because it will never be perfect or completely finished in her eyes). Minnow also desires of others to work hard as well and is often let down by this, because she sets high hopes not only for herself, but also for others.
As she grows older, Minnow will learn to fear many things, which can limit her in what she achieves and can also cause her to do things she is not proud of (eg. stress out, be nervous).
