Design[]
Appearance[]
The Hawk shares several visual similarities with raptorial birds such as hawks and falcons, albeit significantly larger in size.
First seen as a juvenile, the Hawk was still large in size, though lacked the pronounced plumage that would be seen on its adult form, with both the "crest" atop its head and its tail feathers being short and lacking deep red coloring. Its talons and curved beak were also smaller in size.
As the Hawk matured, it exhibited notable physical traits including vivid yellow eyes and a lighter shade of red plumage. The feathers on its head, wing tips, the area surrounding its eyes, and forming its tail now boasted a intensified shade of the red. Similar to many raptorial birds, the Hawk possessed a distinctive ebony curved beak and a set of ebony sickle-shaped talons.
Personality[]
The Hawk exhibited a profound loyalty towards Kong, forming a strong bond with the ape when it was still young. Acting as an aerial scout, the Hawk provided Kong with valuable reconnaissance and served as a companion to him. This loyalty also extended to Kong's human companion, the Island Girl, as the Hawk displayed a protective nature towards her.
As the Hawk grew larger and more capable of hunting, it began bringing live prey to Kong, serving as a provider of sustenance for the ape. This act demonstrated the Hawk's unwavering commitment to serving and supporting Kong, even in its adulthood.
The act of landing on Kong's arm further emphasized the deep bond between the Hawk and Kong. It symbolized trust and a strong connection between the two creatures, solidifying their relationship.
