I had a go at creating a character. I'm not really an artist but fortunately, Tesxa Coyote had a line art base that I was allowed to use. I decided on a mint themed character. I went with golden highlights over a more chocolate colour. I've seen mint chocolate themed characters before so I wanted to be more original.
I've named him Minto. Minto is a coyote. Coyotes are fun they are full of magical power and can cheat death in the stories from the first nations. I envision Minto as a bit of a trickster who uses transformation magic.
