I like him alot, actually. A Medicine Cat who’s not afraid to bend the rules to put his clan and their herb store first? Sign me up. Honestly, Moonflower broke the code the second she invaded and tried to endanger Windclan by tearing at their herb store. Hawkheart’s duty was, above all, to protect his clan, and that was done by rightfully guarding his herbs. Her death was sad, but it was justifiable in my eyes if you purposefully target medicine that is used to save lives. Hawkheart being harsh towards Bluepaw was very clear, but at the same time, it’s refreshing to see a genuinely dangerous and brutal Medicine Cat who puts their clan first and foremost. Honestly, that's one of the reasons i like him. Not your grumpy medicine cat like Jayfeather, but not your sweet and caring meddie like Leafpool, either. He's more of a balanced mix.

I feel like the scene where he attacks Moonflower right when she leaves the medicine den is overlooked. Just as warriors and medicine cats aren't expected to kill, warriors shouldn't target the medicine den indirectly causing lots of deaths. If ThunderClan had to attack, Hawkheart atleast expected them to uphold the warrior code, and at the bare minimum not use dirty methods, so it makes sense in my eyes that he dosen't aim to defend it the first second they attack and that he finds it unexpected. Some medicine cats often stay in the battlefield to check for injuries, so i'm guessing that's what Hawkheart could have been doing at the moment. He dosen't have any foresight to know they would attack the medicine den. Just as they don't expect them to attack the nursery or apprentices den, it's the same. He knew they were in the den, and instead if going inside to help his clanmates, its noted he halted and crouched. Lying in wait for Moonflower so he could attack her like prey. He attacked and killed her after she was already down, out of retaliation. Two wrongs don't make a right, and what he did was unjustifiable. He wasn't protecting anything, and from the start, he was more interested in looking for a fight than helping his clan and protecting his herbs.

He's morally gray AND medicine cat??? What's not to like.
It's was cruel of him to taunt Bluepaw however.
