Full name: Kiostra
Gender: Female
Pronouns: She/her
Age: Adult (somewhere between 30 and 40. She lost track)
Species: Common Buzzard
Appearance: Big and powerful even by ordinary female buzzard standards. 1.4m wingspan. Yellow beak with a black tip. Brown back, head, wings and tail with a pale cream underbelly with brown splotches. Yellow legs with sharp, dangerous talons. Deep scar running from the base of her beak to under her eye and the top of her head, inflicted by a sword.
Personality: Like a true hawk, Kiostra is fiercely independent and strong-willed. She hates accepting help from anybody and will often flat out refuse it, being immensely arrogant and proud. She has a very fierce and unpredictable temper, and often is liable to lash out at any moment, especially when aggravated. To those very special few who she owes debts to however, she will not hesitate to lay down her life for, and will fly in a rush of screeching feathers and slicing talons at anything that so much as looks at them funny.
Allies: Redwallers (to an extent)
Enemies: Vermin
Strengths: Power, Speed, Flight, Sharp eyesight, Flying Skill + Accuracy
Weakness: Temper, Rashness, Refusal to listen, little to no smell
Background: There is not a lot to say about Kiostra's background; she lives a rather ordinary life of a bird of prey, alternating between the open woodlands and the sunny fields of the Gingivere farm. Once in her youth, she ran afowl (*crowd booing*) of a vermin gang, and it was the thin sword of a weasel that gave her her scar. She killed the weasel and a few other rats, but managed to escape the rest of the gang, and eventually found herself exhausted outside the front gate of Redwall. It took two otters to knock her out, but they finally got her aside and up in to the infirmary, where they treated her scar and nursed her back to health. She stayed there for a few seasons, and now regards them all as begrudging allies. She visits occasionally, but has since gone back to her quiet life in the woods.
