In Greek mythology a Harpy is a hybrid creature, half woman and half
vulture; very fierce, vile and loathsome, dwelling in filth and stench,
contaminating everything within reach. The Greek “harpyia”
means snatcher. Harpies are hungry, filthy creatures who snatch food,
objects and even people who are tormented and never seen again. They take
pleasure in punishment, torture and death. Greek mythology cast them as
messengers of divine vengeance, the gods dispatching them to punish the evil
by snatching away or fouling their food. Starting off as stormy Tornado
Goddesses, they were originally beautiful, but over time became screechy,
scratchy, vicious and downright disgusting in every way. Harpies can fly at
the speed of sound, and one of their favorite tricks is to defecate upon the
unworthy from a great height.
