Harpy Physiology

The Power to use the abilities of harpies. Variation of Mythic Physiology and Avian Physiology.

Capabilities
User with this ability either is or can transform into an harpy, a winged spirit from Greek Mythology, where they often took the job of punishing mortals for their misdeeds. This punishment frequently took the form of snatching away and/or befouling people's food, hence their name which comes from the Greek word for "snatcher." They also can be considered as personifications of violent storm-winds.

Harpies can vary widely in appearance but they are always some combination of woman and bird, usually a bird of prey. The ratio of human to bird can also vary from human-faced bird to Winged Humanoid, in many classical depictions their arms are their wings. Most of the time they are seen as ugly, but they were originally described as beautiful and this seems to be more on the line of their more current appearance.

Siren Physiology - although not harpies, they are confused and merged with harpies so often, it is more practical to include them here. In early art Sirens were represented as birds with women's heads, bird feathers and scaly feet. Later, they were represented as female figures with the legs of birds, with or without wings, playing a variety of musical instruments or with centauroid body arrangement of woman from the waist up and full bird from down.
