Thren

The Thren is a bird whose cry kills anything that hears it. The only exception to this seem to be other birds, as Charlie the Raven was unaffected by it. It also uses its cry to attract a mate. Its feathers are the colour of a robin's egg. The birds tend to build their nests high in the mountains. Alexandra Quick managed to capture a thren that nested on top of a mountain in the Ozark Mountains. She caught it in a birdcage that had a Silencing Charm on it. She then used it to kill the underwater panther that resided in the cavern beneath the mountain. While the thren was too scared to cry out at first, Charlie induced it to sing by imitating its cry. Afterwards, Alexandra let the bird go.
