Eli "Hawk" Moskowitz After joining Cobra Kai, Eli adopts the "Hawk" persona, becoming idiotic, confident, and sometimes cruel, especially towards former friends. He turns into a bully, with a defiant and explosive personality, trying to hide his insecurities. Appearance: Hawk adopts a red mohawk that becomes his trademark. He also gets a tattoo of a hawk on his back. The cleft lip scar remains, but he begins to display it with pride rather than shame.
