Miss Troupial is an ymbryne who first appeared in Library of Souls.
Biography[]
Library of Souls[]
Prior to the series, Myron Bentham kidnapped Miss Troupial and put her in a display case with Miss Waxwing, Miss Grebe, and Alexi the grimbear, though before this he may have attempted to use the ymbrynes to power up the Panloopticon. The ymbrynes were held in suspended animation by Mother Dust's dust, and were freed at the end of the book. They likely then returned to their loops.[1]
The Desolations of Devil's Acre[]
Miss Wren mentions that Miss Troupial and Miss Waxwing are both abandoning their loops and bringing their wards to Devil's Acre to join the nine ymbrynes and other peculiars already there. They and Miss Merganser bring up the number of ymbrynes to the needed twelve in order to weave the Quilt around the Acre.[2]
Peculiarity[]
As an ymbryne, she can manipulate time to make loops and turn into a troupial.
