 —  PERSONA  — Positive: -, -, - Description Negative: -, -, - Description  —  HISTORY  — Kestrelkit was born to Sapphirefall and Sorrowbird on January 4th, 2019, along with Gazellekit, Acornkit, and Sandpiperkit. He is the largest of the four. Gradually, he begins to talk and walk, learning from his parents. He meets Driftwood with Sandpiperkit and dislikes him right from the start. Kestrelkit naps and wakes up to find Sandpiperkit with a scratch on her shoulder from Dolphinpaw. In anger, he goes to yell at the apprentice in spite of only being a few days old. Much to his dismay, he isn't able to offend him. Kestrelkit, Sandpiperkit, Fluffkit, and Kookie explore the camp for the first time, however, Sandpiperkit and Kestrelkit aren't the nicest to the other two kits. About a moon later, Kestrelkit and Sandpiperkit throw rocks at Arcticsky, Doveheart, and Basilpaw. The two siblings also bully Creamtuft, a small warrior who is new to the Clan. Together, they watch Driftwood get suspended from SpringClan and as ecstatic to see their worst enemy gone. Kestrelkit watches Sandpiperkit throw a rock at a petty warrior named Iceflower and get in trouble for it without defending her at all. This angers Sandpiperkit. Kestrelkit and Sandpiperkit bully Creamtuft once more, but a shaman, Rainwing, catches them. Kestrelkit is quick to defend himself, but not his sister, so she runs away from SpringClan's camp.

He receives a flower crown from someone, presumably Sandpiperkit, who is still missing, but is unsure and goes into the clearing. There, he finds Oceantide, a newer permanent queen, eating too much prey and tells her to "Save the prey for the important cats," but Oceantide is defended by Hazelpaw. Kestrelkit and Hazelpaw argue, where she tells him that he's worthless, will never be important, and should starve and die. This results in Kestrelkit clawing her face. Angrily, the apprentice scoops him up and brings him into the nursery, where she ties the kit up in moss so that he can't move. After screaming for help for what seems like moons, Hazelpaw frees the kit. Absolutely horrified about what Hazelpaw had said, Kestrelkit runs away from the camp, just like his sister had. He meets up with Sandpiperkit, talks to her briefly, then returns to SpringClan's camp without his sister. Sandpiperkit returns shortly. Kestrelkit greets her, then goes to his nest. He spends most of the next half-moon sleeping and being sad about what Hazelpaw had said, though there is one time when he places a worm in Driftwood's nest. Kestrelkit gets sick because he ate crowfood and throws up in Driftwood's nest. Finally out once again, Kestrelkit and Sandpiperkit meet three MistClan kits when roaming the forest and follow them back to their territory. Before he can get in trouble, Kestrelkit leaves Sandpiperkit behind and returns to camp. Kestrelkit, Sandpiperkit, and Gazellekit attack Driftwood because he 'attacked' Sorrowbird. Kestrelkit sees Polarfrost die and Rainwing seemingly do nothing about it and is horrified. This is quickly forgotten, though, because Driftwood is exiled.

The realization hits him that he is almost six moons old and needs to be a good apprentice, so he decides to be a little nicer. uring this time, Kestrelkit gains the trust of several warriors by pretending to be a sweet, innocent kit, compared to Sandpiperkit. Acornkit sees this and pins Kestrelkit and pummels his face, claws unsheathed while shouting "Liar!" but is taken back to the nursery. Kestrelkit no longer wishes to be around his sister. Kestrelpaw becomes an apprentice, shows off, and eats, but is overall bored. He and Gazellepaw become closer, while he and Sandpiperpaw become more distant, and he wants Creamtuft to die. He trains hard and becomes extremely skilled in aboveground combat, which leads to his warrior name of Kestrelswoop.

At the age of 12 moons old, Kestrelswoop is pretty happy with how things are starting to turn out. He's made friends and is overall pretty content with his current life.
