A new mob that lives in the nether, specifically in the Crimson forest and the Basalt deltas. They are an aggressive mob that will attack the player if they get too close. They will screech as a warning, and then swoop down to attack the player with their beaks. They can however be pacified if given nether wart or a new item, Nether fruit, which grows on the Crimson stems. Or they can be frightened with soul fire. They hate piglins and hoglins. Piglins will hunt them and their babies, while hoglins will attempt to eat their eggs so they have something of a triangle of hatred. They drop feathers, which will allow you to finally make arrows in the nether, and they also drop chicken as that was what they used to be before being brought to the nether. They also have a rare chance 1/142 of dropping netherite scrap, as that is what their beaks are coated in and allows them to deal so much damage. They have a rare new generated structure in the Basalt deltas called the screecher nest. Inside there are a "murder,"(like a group of crows) of screechers, their babies, and a bunch of eggs inside. They also would have skeleton and potentially one wither skeleton head inside, that would be collectable. Inside there would also be some great loot. From iron to gold to diamond to even ancient debris. The screechers can even be saddled up and flown across the nether.
