Mandrake appears to be a nervous, but understanding LeafWing, and he even agrees with the fact that he's not like the other LeafWings when [[Cricket]] asks him if all LeafWings are loud and 'shouty'. He is shifty, quiet, and unconfined, which causes him to be looked down on by his family. It is known that Mandrake likes to tend to the LeafWing's poisonous insect collection. He seems to be slightly indifferent about being Sundew's fiancé, but also a bit proud due to the fact that he told [[Blue]], Cricket, [[Swordtail]], and [[Bumblebee]] that when first introducing himself. Mandrake is especially nervous when catching prey or facing battle, as it was shown that even during life-or-death situations like facing an oversized panther, he needs to stop and breathe to calm down.  He is also very understanding when Sundew tells him she wasn't going to marry him, Mandrake says he knows and hopes she is happy to be with [[Willow]].

Mandrake was trying to kill a panther while his father, Wolfsbane, and his sister, Nettle, watched. He was extremely nervous and kept panicking before he could seize his opportunity. He also took a lot of time to do it, causing Nettle to complain about how slow he was. When Sundew trapped the panther for him with her leafspeak in order to save him, he at first believed he did it and was confused by his success.

|content = Mandrake is first seen trying to kill a panther while his father, Wolfsbane, and his sister, Nettle, watch. He is extremely nervous and keeps panicking before he can seize his opportunity. When Sundew traps the panther for him with her powers, he at first believes he did it and is confused by his success. When Sundew appears, he seems happy to see her, though he is visibly disappointed to have his sister's suspicions of Sundew killing the panther confirmed. Mandrake offers to stay with Sundew and her friends while his father and sister go alert [[Commander Belladonna]] to their presence. While he's with them he informs the group that he is Sundew's fiancé.
Later on, Belladonna forcibly assigned Mandrake and Nettle to go with Sundew, [[Willow]], [[Cricket]], and [[Bumblebee]] on their expedition to the [[Eye of the jungle]] to find a LeafWing named [[Hawthorn]].
Mandrake later appears with Sundew, Willow, Cricket, and Nettle on their expedition to the [[Poison_Jungle#Other_Locations_in_the_Poison_Jungle|Eye of the Jungle]] having been forced to come along by Belladonna.


As soon as Mandrake and Sundew begin speeding up the growth of the Heart of Salvation, Sundew tells him she was never going to marry him. Mandrake says that he always knew she wasn't, and that he hopes she marries Willow. Later on, Sundew attempts to convince him to organize the LeafWings for evacuation. At first, he was unsure of his ability, but Sundew’s persuasive nature got him to take responsibility. It can be assumed that he was able to get the tribe off the continent before the [[Othermind]] overtook them.

Biography

The Lost Continent Prophecy

Mandrake was trying to kill a panther while his father, Wolfsbane, and his sister, Nettle, watched. He was extremely nervous and kept panicking before he could seize his opportunity. He also took a lot of time to do it, causing Nettle to complain about how slow he was. When Sundew trapped the panther for him with her leafspeak in order to save him, he at first believed he did it and was confused by his success. When Sundew appeared, he seemed happy to see her, though he was visibly disappointed that his sister's suspicions that Sundew killed the panther were confirmed. Mandrake offered to stay with Sundew and her friends while his father and sister alerted Commander Belladonna of their presence. While he was with them, he informed the group that he was Sundew's fiancé.

Later on, Belladonna forcibly assigned Mandrake and Nettle to go with Sundew, Willow, Cricket, and Bumblebee on their expedition to the Eye of the jungle to find a LeafWing named Hawthorn.

As soon as Mandrake and Sundew began speeding up the growth of the heart of salvation, Sundew told him she was not going to marry him. Mandrake said that he always knew that and that he hoped she would marry Willow. Later on, Sundew attempted to convince him to organize the LeafWings for evacuation. At first, he was unsure of his ability, but Sundew persuaded him to take responsibility. He went back to the PoisonWings village to help with the evacuation.


Field Guides

Relationships

Mandrake is her younger brother, he does not get along with his sister. He obeys Nettle's orders and seems a bit scared of her at times. As Mandrake's friendly, non-violent personality clashes with his sister's aggressive, bossy personality, they are not very often cooperative, but can work well together on a mission.
