Skench

Skench is a Great Horned Owl who is a recurring antagonist in the Guardians of Ga'Hoole books The Capture, The Siege and The Burning.

She was the Ablah General St. Aegolius Avademy for Orphan Owls. Not having much knowledge herself, Skench relies on moonblinked owls to make her feel smart than she really is.

Skench doesn't appear in the 2010 film Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole and is instead replaced by Nyra who serves as the academy's Ablah General and trains Tytos into becoming soldiers for the Pure Ones.
