While on the topic of Mama Hawk Rhythmi, we also have another type of "Mama" in the person of Kellyn.
As explained before, Kellyn is the 2nd weakest member of the group. The only reason why he is stronger than Rhythmi is because he's a Ranger and her an Operator. He's also wouldn't hurt a fly, except when he goes into Berserk Mode, which is really rare. The only time that happened was when Keith and Fischl got ejected from the Altru Tower, so...
Anyway, as you can see, he doesn't really fit into the Mama Hawk archetype. What is he, then? Well...A Mama Dragon.
Kellyn is the Mom Friend in the group, always here to take care of them, may it be by pampering them, preparing some snacks or meals, comforting them...That kind of things.
He also knows that he can't protect his close persons by fighting with his fists, so he shields them with his body instead. He has always been a self-sacrificial person, and after Operation Brighton, it only got worse.
Just like Rhythmi, he has been so traumatized that the only way he found to cope with the trauma was to protect and take care of others. Thankfully, once adults, the extremism calmed down, and they became "regular" Mamas Hawk/Dragon.
If you can call them regular...
In other words, if Rhythmi's the fierce Mama Hawk ready to kill for her Rangers, Kellyn's the sweet Mama Dragon taking care of his close persons and ready to die for them.
Funny how the two of them started from the same level, right?
If you ask a complete stranger who is the most dangerous person in the group, they most likely will answer with Keith and/or Kate's names.
However, if you ask a staff member of the Ranger Union, they will, without hesitation, answer with Rhythmi's name.
Let's start with some explanations: first of all, Rhythmi's is not strong physically. She's the weakest of the group. Hell, even Kellyn is stronger than her!
Then, "why?" you wonder? That's simple: she's a Mama Hawk.
Yes, she's may not be strong like Keith or Kate, but boy, oh boy, she's scary as hell! More than once, she left the Union building to give a piece of her mind to the ungrateful/selfish/inconsiderate brats who are bugging her Rangers.
When that happens, her face becomes so dark and furious that even the toughest beast doesn't dare look at her in the eyes. Thankfully, she doesn't need to come to blows most of the time, but when she does...Let's just say that the adrenaline rush and rage do the trick.
To put it bluntly, Rhythmi's a raging Mama Hawk who's ready to kill in order to protect her precious Rangers. A very scary Mama Hawk.
