Stunning Screech (auditory, emotion, fear, mental) — The terror shrike unleashes a haunting screech that causes prey to freeze in fear. Each non–terror bird creature in a 30-foot emanation must attempt a DC 19 Will save. Regardless of the result, creatures are then temporarily immune for 1 minute.
Success The creature is unaffected.
Failure The creature is Stunned 1.

Sudden Charge — The terror shrike Strides twice. If it ends its movement within melee reach of one creature, it can make a melee Strike against that creature.
Tearing Clutch — The terror shrike's powerful beak can tear through flesh. On a successful beak Strike, the target takes 1 persistent bleed damage. This bleed damage increases to 1d8 on a critical hit.
