[attr="class","arrgenMAINTEXT"]Leaftail is big and imposing, and can come across as rather intimidating, but she is honestly anything but. She is very much a gentle giant, very sweet and caring around her clanmates, and incredibly selfless as well. She's willing to do just about anything to ensure the safety and well-being of her clanmates. Leaftail's personality is an interesting opposition to Rosestar's; while her leader is cold and calculating, Leaftail is warm and outgoing. The deputy often likes to check up on her other clanmates to ensure that everyone's happy and healthy. She's always up for a conversation, granted if she's not busy at the time, and isn't opposed to making new friends. Bold and confident, Leaftail knows her own strength and often uses it to her advantage during battle, but would honestly rather try a diplomatic route first before jumping straight into violence. If there's a way to solve things without fighting, Leaftail would rather find it and use it, but if push comes to shove, she's not afraid to fight for Riverclan's survival. She will not shy from whatever must be done. Her loyalty to Riverclan knows no bounds. One of the more extroverted and charismatic sorts, Leaftail finds pleasure in spending time in other cats' companies, and honestly would rather be surrounded by other cats than be completely alone. As such she is usually found in the company of her brother Oakfoot, her best friend and closest confidante.

Optimistic to a fault, Leaftail is always trying to see the good in things. She's always willing to try and give cats second chances, and is always attempting to look on the bright side. After all, even if you've hit rock bottom, the only place left to go is up. Leaftail is an incredibly compassionate and empathetic cat, and is always willing to lend a paw to a friend. Whether you need some advice, or merely a listening ear or a shoulder to cry on, Leaftail is there for you. She wants to be dependable in that way. However, around cats that aren't Riverclanners... A whole different side of her comes out. She is just as harsh against outsiders as Rosestar is, and cares very little, if at all, for the other clans. She can be rather forceful, especially towards loners and rogues as she finds them to be unpredictable and untrustworthy, though around other clan cats she manages to keep up a polite façade. However, she's rather short-tempered and it doesn't take much to set her off, though unlike most, she's not the type to get loud when genuinely angered. Rather, she seethes on the inside, and it manifests in a sharp tone and an icy cold gaze. And if met on the battlefield... Well, let's just say she will not be so merciful.

Leaftail tends to be rather cold toward the other clans, despite her polite outward appearance, and generally tries not to involve herself with any cats outside of Riverclan unless she absolutely has to. Calculating and observant, she tries to watch herself around them, and keeps a close eye on other clan cats to make sure no one starts anything. She couldn't trust the other clans as far as she could throw them, and she doesn't necessarily hide this fact either. She's notoriously stubborn as well, and very rarely will she back down from a challenge. Once her sights are set, it's nigh impossible to change her mind.
