Harping on About Harpies | comment |
Like centaurs, mermaids, Fauns and Satyrs, harpies are mythical creatures that take the form of part-human, part-animal creatures — in this case, one half is a woman and the other half is a bird, usually a bird of prey. They originated in Greek Mythology, where they often took the job of punishing mortals for their misdeeds. This punishment frequently took the form of snatching away or befouling people's food, hence their name which comes from the Greek word for "snatcher." They also can be considered as Anthropomorphic Personifications of violent winds. They can vary widely in appearance. They may or may not be subject to the Gorgeous Gorgon effect, or even be a Cute Monster Girl, but they were originally described as ugly and grotesque before the mix up. The subjective ratio of human to bird can also vary from woman's body shape with wings in place of the arms and a birds' feathers and feet to a woman with winged forearms, a feathered body, clawed hands, and birds' feet. In many classical depictions, their arms are their wings. They often come in groups of three, and are often given the names of Aello, Ocypete, and Celaeno.note It used to be two harpies. Virgil added Celaeno as the third. Their wings are usually avian and feathered, but may sometimes be those of bats instead. This is a Sub-Trope of Monstrous Humanoid and Winged Humanoid. Related to the other mythological half-woman half-bird creatures, Our Sirens Are Different. Sirens and harpies are confused almost as much as sirens and mermaids, usually by giving harpies beautiful or hypnotic voices, a characteristic that only sirens possessed in Greek myth. This is probably due to the harpies often being portrayed as bird-like, and of course birds are well known for singing. (On the flip side, harpies may be depicted as unpleasantly shrill.) Harpies should also not be confused with furies. Those are a different kind of evil flying women — a trio of goddesses, technically, with power of men and gods alike. Harpies frequently appear as relatively small Giant Flyers, almost always as the "Leathery-Winged Avians" variant, of which they may well be the Trope Codifier. See also Bird People and Bat People. The harpy eagle is named for them, and their tendency to be Always Chaotic Evil has led the word "harpy" to be used to describe any unpleasant woman. |

In Gold Digger, Charlotte, aka "Charlie", is a genetically engineered harpy. She was created by a villain as a disposable mook, but after he was defeated, She stopped moving, no longer connected to his will. Penny adopted her, allowing her to develop a will and personality of her own. Despite being the size of an adult, she is only a few years old and has the emotional maturity of a child. She's both attractive (in a fuzzy-yellow-feathers-all-over-her-body kind of way) and very sweet-natured, but she also has big scary bionic claws on her arms. | |

His Dark Materials: Harpies guard the underworld. They were told by the Authority to feed off the misery of the dead by taunting them with whatever they did wrong in life. One harpy betrayed evil by helping Lyra and Will cut open a portal for the dead to escape through. As thanks, Lyra gave her a name — Gracious Wings. | |

Jason and the Argonauts: True to the original myth, they taunt the blind prophet Phineus. Every day on his island, a huge banquet is laid out but the harpies take the food every day. There are only two instead of the traditional three. They are caught in a net by the Argonauts and locked in a cage while Phineus now eats the food in front of them. | |

Skin Deep: Many harpies live in the Avalons and get on in society just like all of the other creatures; the most notable example being the bar tender Abby. They're also among the species that do not possess enchanted medallions to allow them to take human shape, which is both a significant inconvenience and a source of Fantastic Racism in the magical community. They come in four distinct subspecies, representing different depictions of harpies in mythology and heraldry: Aellean harpies resemble human women with bird legs, tails and wings; they only possess four limbs, and their wings double as their arms — they still possess taloned, scaly hands, but these are part of their wings and possess limited dexterity; their feet are actually more dextrous and useful than their hands. Okepetian harpies resemble the aellean kind in most respects, but possess distinct arms and wings for a total of six limbs; their forearms and hands are scaled and tipped with birdlike talons. Abby is an okepetian harpy. Podargian harpies are the smallest kind, and the least humanoid — they're essentially birds with human heads. Celean harpies are the most monstrous kind, possessing taloned hands and four wings — a birdlike pair and a batlike pair. Anthony is something of an odd case — he transformed into an aellean harpy after being exposed to the magic of an Avalon, despite harpies being Always Female and his transformation not involving any Gender Bender. As it turns out, his mom was an aellean harpy who permanently took on human shape to be with her human husband, and this combined with humans being easily affected by transformative magic likely caused a weird, unique reaction when he was first exposed to the magical world. |

In Wargroove Harpies form the Cherrystone aeronaut unit. Despite having wings for arms and talon for feet, they have the Cute Monster Girl vibe going on. They also thoroughly subvert the usual personality of the race — they get along famously with humans, form rescue teams to help people trapped in the mountains they inhabit, and the deployable aeronauts are there because they voluntarily enlisted with Cherrystone's regular military. (Other factions' aeronauts have a similar body shape, but pull more heavily from In-Universe lore.) | |

Harry Potter: There is a Quidditch team called the Holyhead Harpies, which is made up entirely of women. As to whether actual harpies exist in the setting, no confirmation has been received so far (Though other teams are known to be named after magical creatures that do exist). The veela are vaguely similar, although they're more reminiscent of sirens or banshees. | |

The Last Unicorn contains Celaeno (based on the character of the same name in The Aeneid), a harpy that looks less like a harpy and more like a ugly, eared and toothed vulture with three Non-Mammalian Mammaries that are way too detailed for a G-rated children's cartoon. She was captured by Mommy Fortuna for the old hag's traveling circus and the unicorn sets her free. She then reveals herself to be just as evil and nasty as most harpies, and attacks the unicorn. Oddly enough, she speaks with a male-sounding voice despite being female. | |

Jason and the Argonauts: True to the original myth, they taunt the blind prophet Phineus. Every day on his island, a huge banquet is laid out but the harpies take the food every day. There are only two instead of the traditional three. They are killed when the bricks from their temple crush them. | |

DuckTales (1987): "The Golden Fleecing" features harpies, which is odd, as the main characters are actually all anthropomorphic birds. Fridge Brilliance sets in when you realize that'd make the harpies look monstrous to them. DuckTales (2017) brings them back as minions of Zeus sent to punish his guileless son Storkules and they start terrorizing Duckburg by extension. Louie sets up a Get-Rich-Quick Scheme with Storkules to get rid of them, which of course backfires in the end. The harpies start working for Scrooge at the end of the episode. |

Xanth harpies are ugly old hags who attack via curses. The One-Gender Race and Gorgeous Gorgon aspects of them are played with, in that there are a few rare male harpies who are the good-looking ones; this is in explicit contrast with the goblins, which in Xanth are mostly ugly males with a few beautiful females. The two races war with each other frequently, but one recurring character is a winged gobliness with a harpy father and a goblin mother. It also becomes clear in one of the novels that young female harpies are actually very pretty; it's not until they grow up (which tends to also entail becoming embittered by the dearth of males and losing all regard for hygiene) that they become ugly. | |

In a rare twist to the traditional One-Gender Race, they are all male, their females having died off a generation ago. | |

Serious Sam: Harpies are Weak but annoying emeies, as usual. The game lampshades the use of breasts on a bird monster (they don't actually produce milk, they're just there to attract prey), and the liberal use of Nightmare Face makes it clear the series is rooted in the Fan Disservice side of the harpy lineage. | |

Monster Musume: Papi and her fantasy expys, Aero of Deadline Summoner and a different Aero of 12 Beast, are humanoids with birdlike legs and wings instead of arms. In lieu of hands, they possess a single taloned on their wings. 12 Beast also has several harpies as part of Eita's mercenary army. Unlike in Monster Musume, 12 Beast and Deadline Summoner depict harpies with their wings on their backs akin to angels, and with an additional set of human arms to supplement them. This is justified, as Monster Musume is set more in the real world, whereas the other two are in fantasy land settings. | |

Pathfinder: Harpies aren't necessarily ugly — in fact, their artwork tends to make them look fairly attractive, if inhuman — but they have absolutely no sense of hygiene (and powerful musk). They may not be bad to look at, but you can usually smell them coming a mile away. They are explicitly a One-Gender Race that must mate with humanoids to procreate... unfortunately, not only do they tend to be sadists, they usually eat their partners when they're done. In fact, it's mentioned in one sourcebook on Classical Monsters that in Harpy society, not eating the father of one's daughter is a shameful event, unless said male is strong enough that he's more worthwhile if kept alive. They also possess captivating songs that they use to lure victims into their clutches. Second Edition does away with their One-Gender Race status — in fact, the illustration in the Bestiary is of a male harpy. Pathfinder also includes a siren species, which are bird-women like their harpy cousins (a woman's head, the body of a giant eagle/hawk/owl), but more benevolent. For starters, they don't eat their lovers, and in fact have been known to commit suicide if their lovers are stolen away from or leave them. |

Disney Ducks Comic Universe: In the Uncle Scrooge comic The Golden Fleecing by Carl Barks, Harpies (renamed "Larkies" for the story, as the editor objected to the word "Harpy") are the guardians of the Golden Fleece, and are also portrayed as horrible cooks. They kidnap Scrooge and Donald in order to get them to judge their revolting recipes. The story was loosely adapted into a DuckTales (1987) episode. | |

Dungeons & Dragons has had harpies throughout the various editions as Chaotic Evil Monstrous Humanoids with hypnotic singing voicesnote in fact, an early sourcebook states that "siren" is simply a term for coast-dwelling harpies, though their appearance has varied considerably. Similarly, their status as an Always Female One-Gender Race has fluctuated, from being always female and depending on parthenogenesis/crossbreeding with humanoid men/a combination of the two, to having males who are simply less common and/or expected to Stay in the Kitchen. 2e harpies are ugly, resembling nasty-looking crone-like women who have the lower bodies and wings of vultures, but with beautiful, enrapturing voices. 3e harpies are, similarly, ugly creatures who combine the worst aspects of crones and vultures and contrast them with hypnotic voices. In 3.5, they become fully inhuman monsters with draconic legs and wings. 4e harpies take a swing into the Gorgeous Gorgon territory, with bird wings and claws but otherwise regular humanoid appearances. In the default Nentir Vale setting, they're given an origin as the descendants of an evil elf queen whose family misused magic to assume the form of birds in order to spy upon their tyrannized subjects. When their people revolted, the magic went haywire and trapped them as half-elf, half-bird beings. In 5th edition, harpies keep the Cute Monster Girl looks, with human-like bodies but monstrous claws. They're also given a new origin story as an elven maiden who learned a beautiful song to woo the god Fenmarel Mestarine. When her trick didn't work, she got mad and used magic to turn herself into the first harpy, corrupting her love into a predatory hunger for the flesh of others. The Greco-Roman themed 3rd party settings Arkadia and Odyssey of the Dragonlords both put their own spin on harpies. In Arkadia, harpies are a race of oft-malicious but not always evil fae who appear as half-woman, half-bird, and it's possible to play a Phaedran (half-fae) with harpy ancestry. In Odyssey of the Dragonlords, harpies are sirens — here a race of half-human half-birds whose civilization was ruined by the cruelty of a deity — who went mad and became murderous bandits. Sirens are a playable race; harpies aren't. |

The Tortall Universe has Stormwings: female and male harpy-like creatures with sharp steel feathers and talons, who desecrate bodies of those slain on the battlefield and are so odoriferous that they repel most humans. As they're in a class of beings called Immortals, they live forever or until accident or malice kills them. Stormwings were dreamt up by a traveler who wanted to make people realize that War Is Hell by taking any glamour out of the fate of the war dead. Some are evil but many aren't, merely tending to be quite offputting to many humans, and in turn they're often put off by humans's tendency to kill each other. They also tend to be Friends To All Children as they lay few steel eggs and even fewer hatch, so they have a soft spot for others' young and will often befriend children or rescue them. In The Immortals, a Stormwing gives the Big Bad a Stormwing feather and tells him that if he plunges it into his flesh, it will allow him to escape any danger "on wings of steel". The Big Bad uses it when cornered and is transformed permanently into a Stormwing himself. In Tortall: A Spy's Guide Daine says any shed Stormwing feather can do this - considering that the feathers are also sometimes used to fletch arrows to give them Mage Killer properties, this suggests humans transforming into them happens more than once in an era. |

The original Valkyrie Profile features harpies as enemies in many dungeons. They are depicted with the upper bodies and heads of women with the lower bodies of birds and huge wings for arms. Lenneth describes them as "abominations" and "an insult to all natural birds", implying that they may have been created through sinister magical experiments. In one scene, resident Evil Sorcerer Lezard Valeth summons one and rides on its back as a flying mount. | |

In Harpya, a 1979 Belgian short, a Gay Nineties' gentleman saves a harpy from being murdered by another man in a public fountain. After bringing it home, the Harpy proceeds to eat all of his food, his parakeet, and then his legs. But only when she tries to cheat him out of a packet of Pommes Frites, he tries to kill her himself. But then the Harpy is suddenly saved by a policeman. | |

Total War: Warhammer: Bat-winged harpies are present as quick, fragile flying units for the Beastmen and the Dark Elves. They're very well-suited for shutting down archers and artillery units and for swarming light enemy infantry when it's isolated or tied up in combat, but lack the bulk or armor to do well in long-term melee and can be devastated by focused ranged fire or being caught by a large flying monster. | |

Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Harpies help keep curfew at Camp Half-Blood... by eating any camper stupid enough to break it. In The Son of Neptune, the main characters meet Ella, a harpy who remembers everything she reads and has no interest in eating the kids, as well as a large flock of more traditional harpies tormenting the blind seer Phineas.zz |

A Total War Saga: TROY: In Truth Behind the Myth mode, harpies are a unit of human women, wreckers and pirates recruitable from coastal regions, who smear their faces with soot, wear clothes and headdresses decorated with feathers and bird skulls — their elite variant, the harpy fiends, wear winged headdresses — and fight with javelins. The implication is that, over centuries of retellings after the events of the game's time, memories of these harpies became distorted into the monstrous half-bird women of Greek myth. In Mythos mode, harpies are creatures with bodies of women but the wings and legs of birds. In battle, they serve as a mobile flying unit. |

In The Immortals, a Stormwing gives the Big Bad a Stormwing feather and tells him that if he plunges it into his flesh, it will allow him to escape any danger "on wings of steel". The Big Bad uses it when cornered and is transformed permanently into a Stormwing himself. In Tortall: A Spy's Guide Daine says any shed Stormwing feather can do this - considering that the feathers are also sometimes used to fletch arrows to give them Mage Killer properties, this suggests humans transforming into them happens more than once in an era. | |

Godforsaken: Harpies are hideous, filthy creatures with human heads and vulture bodies. Their breath reeks of decay, their wings and talons drip with unpleasant oils, and their eyes shed acrid tears. They love to torment people and lure them to their deaths, and can place people under a magical trance with their song. | |

Dragon's Dogma: Generally speaking, the game has harpies almost everywhere and they behave like sirens, known for being both beautiful and hideous. Their depictions are actually accurate to the source materials due to their bird-like proportions. Harpies and their variants sing to hypnotise their prey to sleep and snatch them away. However, what makes them truly annoying is how the Pawns overreact to almost every single harpy. The Snow Harpy is a variant which can freeze its prey with a chilling breath. The Succubus, surprisingly, does not have horns. Instead, it's a harpy with bat wings and they can curse its prey with its seductive song and bite them. The Gargoyles also falls under this category since they also behave like harpies, except they have tails which can petrify their prey. As for the literal Siren, their singing can heal nearby creatures instead of hypnotising prey. And there's Strigoi, the large red Gargoyle. |

The Elder Scrolls: Hagravens are a flightless variant of this, who were once mortal women that performed a ritual to trade in their humanity for access to powerful magic. A Human Sacrifice is required for the ritual to even become a Hagraven, and Hagravens serve as Evil Matriarchs to Reachmen clans as well as generally being an Enemy to All Living Things. Naturally, they have feathers, beak-like noses, and talons for fingers and toes. Winged Twilights are a bat-like form of lesser Daedra with some harpy-like traits. They resemble standard harpies, though are more bat-like than bird-like, and are unrelated to Tamriel's actual harpies. |

One Piece introduces us to Monet in the Punk Hazard arc. Usopp identifies her as a harpy at first sight but the truth is a bit more complicated. She is an otherwise normal human who had her arms and legs replaced with wings and bird-like talons with the aid of Trafalgar Law's Op-Op Fruit. Additionally, Marco the Phoenix, former First Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, possessed the Tori Tori no Mi, Model: Phoenix Devil Fruit. When Marco transforms into his human-beast hybrid form, his arms are completely replaced by fiery Phoenix wings and his feet are replaced by bird feet with wickedly sharp talons. |

Magic: The Gathering: Harpies, resembling giant vultures with women's heads, exist on the planes of Mercadia and Theros, with at least one making it to Dominaria during the Invasion. They are generally foul, vicious creatures; the harpies of Theros, in particular, are filthy and hideous scavengers who live on the edges of civilization and attack travelers to steal their belongings. They have no true concept of value, however, and as a result their lairs are filled with treasure, trinkets, broken objects and garbage piled haphazardly together with the remains of the harpies' meals. They are distinct from sirens, which are generally more intelligent, civilized and humanoid. | |

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: "Sky Queen" Frey is a Demon Lord who rules the Harpy Kingdom of Fulbrosia. Harpies are a race of winged majin who almost allnote There are males, averting One-Gender Race, but they're very rare resemble beautiful women (Frey in particular is considered In-Universe to be Ms. Fanservice), with their legs ending in talons but their arms being both human and separated from their large wings attached to their back. Harpies also possess the Intrinsic Skill "Magic Jamming", which allows them to disrupt the flow of Magicules around them to both cancel out/weaken magic and (in the case of Frey) outright disable nearly all forms of magical flight. Their natural speed and flight capabilities make them highly feared as masters of aerial combat. Since their race is almost exclusively female, they rely on either the few males or another powerful majin of a different race for genetic diversity. A queen-type harpy like Frey is also capable of parthenogenesis (virginal birth) with no partner required. Frey's twin sister Nazim is a queen-type harpy whose possesses multiple pairs of wings and great inherent power due to a genetic mutation, but consequently is sterile, which disqualified her from inheriting the royal title. | |

In fact, the Harpies Of Talon Mountain are actual antagonists of the heroes, with their leader Hunga having a special animosity for Queen Angella. So much so that, when former Rebellion leader King Micah (Angella's husband) returns, Hunga takes center stage as the villain for the episode. |

To cup it all, they have a hatchery in Moorbridge Swamp, the first area you have to visit outside of Ferdok, when you're still low level and badly equipped. The sequel has harpies, but at least they're located near the end of the game, when you should be though enough to get rid of them. | |

Total War: Total War: Warhammer: Bat-winged harpies are present as quick, fragile flying units for the Beastmen and the Dark Elves. They're very well-suited for shutting down archers and artillery units and for swarming light enemy infantry when it's isolated or tied up in combat, but lack the bulk or armor to do well in long-term melee and can be devastated by focused ranged fire or being caught by a large flying monster. A Total War Saga: TROY: In Truth Behind the Myth mode, harpies are a unit of human women, wreckers and pirates recruitable from coastal regions, who smear their faces with soot, wear clothes and headdresses decorated with feathers and bird skulls — their elite variant, the harpy fiends, wear winged headdresses — and fight with javelins. The implication is that, over centuries of retellings after the events of the game's time, memories of these harpies became distorted into the monstrous half-bird women of Greek myth. In Mythos mode, harpies are creatures with bodies of women but the wings and legs of birds. In battle, they serve as a mobile flying unit. |

In Hercules: The Animated Series, Hercules loses his homework, an epic poem, and goes through an absurd series of events to reclaim it; among them, the poem is stolen by a Harpy, a shrieking bird with a human face who keeps yelling "MY poem!" at him. | |

Titan Quest: Harpies are some of the standard Mooks, encountered in Greece (where they're more bird-like) and Egypt, where they're called "Sand Hags" and are featherless creatures with batwings and vulture-like beaks. Both are classified as Beasts rather than Beastmen, implying that they're not sentient. | |

Pyre: Has a race called "Harps" that look like elves with wings in place of arms and birdlike legs. They may or may not be a One-Gender Race; nobody in the Commonwealth has seen a male Harp (leading to a nasty rumor that the females eat their mates), but your Harp party member claims they have a prince. Their country is currently at war with the Commonwealth, so Harps residing there often face discrimination. Harp criminals are often punished by having their wings clipped before being tossed into Downside; it’s to keep them from using their flight to escape, but it also leaves them effectively crippled for life. | |

Terraria has harpies as a relatively common enemy at the heights where sky islands usually form. They are humanoid creatures with feathered wings instead of arms, and if their Dungeon Defenders appearance is to be believed, talons for feet. Despite a relatively friendly appearance, they are always hostile and will shoot feathers at players. When killed, they drop feathers used for Gravitation potions. | |

Against the Storm: Harpies are one of the villager species. They specialize in alchemy and enjoy working with cloth. They are fickle and have low Resolve, but their preferences are somewhat easy to satisfy, making them relatively easy to please. They are also unable to fly; the curse that caused the Blightstorm also grounded them for some unknown reason. | |
