Korvus Skurr was the raven leader of the Doomwytes. Rigvar Skurr was an ancestor of his. Skurr's goal was to restore pride and glory to his horde by retrieving the eyes of the Great Doomwyte Idol, stolen seasons past by Gonff the Mousethief. At one point in his reign, Korvus was responsible for the death of Zaran the Black's mate and daughter, causing her to swear revenge against the Doomwyte by attempting to bury the raven within his own realm. Korvus attempted to escape Baliss through the entryway of his lair, but was killed by Zaran the Black in revenge for murdering her family.
