What is a "harpy"?
A harpy is a mythical creature from Greek mythology known for its bird-like features and female form. Harpies are often depicted as having the body of a bird with the head and upper torso of a woman. They are typically associated with storms and winds and are portrayed as being both fierce and vengeful. In many myths, harpies are known for snatching away people or objects and carrying them off. They are mostly depicted as malevolent beings that cause trouble and distress, often serving as agents of punishment or divine retribution in the stories in which they appear.
