Source: Theros Bestiary TBVIV
A titanic wyvern-peacock with a poisonous gaze. It needs merely to fix its eyes on a target to putrefy it. The fleetfeather cockatrice is so named for its fleeting speed.

- "desc": "The cockatrice fixes its gaze on one creature within 30 feet of it that the cockatrice can see with both eyes and forces the target to make a DC 13 saving throw. A creature that isn't surprised can use a reaction to Hide and avoid the saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is instantly [petrified](../../../Compendium/rules/conditions#petrified). A creature that succeeds on the saving throw begins to turn to stone and is [restrained](../../../Compendium/rules/conditions#restrained). The [restrained](../../../Compendium/rules/conditions#restrained) creature must repeat the saving throw at the end of its next turn, becoming [petrified](../../../Compendium/rules/conditions#petrified) on a failure or ending the effect on a success. The petrification can only be cured by a god."
