Kestrelbranch

Kestrelbranch is a dark tortoiseshell tom with amber eyes and a yellow flower.
Kestrelbranch was a RiverClan medicine cat under the leadership of Sparkstar in the forest territories. He was born as Kestrelkit to Mistyheart along with Stonekit and Myrtlekit. He became interested in medicine at a young age, and eventually became Kestrelpaw under Bluesight's mentorship. Eventually, he received his full medicine cat name, Kestrelbranch. He became close friends with Blindfall while simultaneously becoming apprehensive towards Clawblaze and later, his own brother.
Kestrelbranch continued to serve RiverClan, taking on Shadedpaw and Smallpaw as his apprentices. Though, Smallpaw didn't believe in herself, he believed in her greatly. Even after Smallpaw left RiverClan, he never stopped supporting her and continued training Shadedpaw. After finding out of Stoneclaw's murder of Nightgaze, he was murdered in order to keep his mouth shut. He ascended to StarClan, and continued to protect RiverClan as a spirit. 
==History==
===In the Storm of Secrets arc===
:Kestrelbranch is the RiverClan medicine cat, and he's training Smallpaw and Shadedpaw. He's close with Blindfall and attends the Gathering with him, avoiding Smallpaw's closeness to Leafpaw. Though he attempts to make her feel better, she doesn't take his word. When Smallpaw left RiverClan, Kestrelbranch remained sad for a while but made amends with his former apprentice. During ThunderClan's epidemic, he offers to help but is halted by Sparkstar.
:Upon catching Clawblaze and Stoneclaw by Sunningrocks, he learns of their plot to kill Moonstar, admitting to their killing of Nightgaze. Before Kestrelbranch can say anything, he is murdered by Stoneclaw and left in the river. His corpse is discovered by Smallcloud, who drags him back to RiverClan. She exclaims that her father killed Kestrelbranch, but Grassfeather accuses her of lying. Before Stoneclaw can be exiled, he leaves RiverClan.

====Clawstar's Fury====
:As an apprentice, he is trained by Bluesight to become RiverClan's medicine cat. He is the opposite of his brother's bloodthirsty, ambitious nature, being more calm and selective himself. He becomes very close with Blindpaw while additionally being distrusted by Stonepaw, who accuses him of codebreaking.
