Harpies
From afar, she may be mistaken for a woman. But as you approach her, her avian features become more and more visible. Her body is covered with a thick layer of speckled feathers. Her legs bend back, like those of birds. Instead of feet she walks upon grey talons sharp enough to pierce flesh. She has no arms; instead, brown wings unfurl beneath her shoulders. You will soon realize you are in the presence of something beyond human.
Basic Information
Genetics and Reproduction
Unlike their human counterparts, harpies lay eggs in order to reproduce. How they conceive is still up for debate, as no one has ever seen a male harpy, dead or alive.
Ecology and Habitats
Harpies have been seen all over Talis, from the grasslands of Amberlin to the cold peaks of the Angia mountains. They tend to settle their nests in high up places, like canyon walls, canopy tops, and have even been found to make their homes in abandoned towers.
