The Shrieker

A notoriously aggressive cockatrice variant nesting in a deep cavern near Crow’s Perch, terrorizing the local peasantry and striking with blinding speed using its razor-sharp front talons.

Combat strategy

Flush it out of its high cave perches using a Grapeshot explosive bomb. Once grounded on the dirt, apply Draconid Oil to your silver sword and maximize physical evasions to avoid its beak.
