Kestrel

Template:InfoboxKestrel was a rust-red, bad-tempered Skywing who guarded the dragonets while they were trapped in the cave. She was also a member of the Talons of Peace.

Biography

Kestrel originally served Queen Scarlet as a soldier, and entered the breeding program. She laid an egg that contained twins, a rare and unwanted occurrence among Skywings. One of the dragonets, the female, got twice the amount of fire she should have had, and her brother had none. Since dragonets such as this are always killed, Kestrel tried to save them but was pursued. Scarlet told her to sacrifice one and she would not hold Kestrel responsible-Kestrel let the young male drop, an act that would haunt her the rest of her life. Scarlet lied and didn't keep up her end of the bargain, forcing Kestrel to flee for her life and leave her daughter, Peril, behind.

She later acted as a guardian and trainer of fighting for the five dragonets of prophecy, a job she loathed because it reminded her of her lost children. She was one of the reasons the dragonets were so desperate to escape.

Later captured and imprisoned again by Queen Scarlet, she was set free when the dragonets escaped via the aid of Peril. She later parted ways with them and her daughter, leaving them to her own devices.

She was later murdered by Blister and Morrowseer, in an act of betrayal.

Personality

Kestrel is a very grumpy and hot-headed dragon, mainly because she had lost her son and daughter and had been exiled.
