Siren is a blue creature type used for cards that depict sea creatures, which lure mariners to destruction by their seductive singing.
The subtype was introduced in Magic 2010 with the Nymph-like Alluring Siren, which has the typical ability to induce an attack by a target creature. The Theros block introduces more sirens.
Theros Sirens
These sirens feed mostly on seabirds and fish, luring their prey with melodious songs, but are more than happy to lure human sailors as well, eating their flesh and stealing their cargo. These sirens are more similar to the classical hellenic ones, with bird-like features and feathered wings which they use to fly.
