History

The first of the later races to have flight, the harpies ruled the air in their youth. However, the tengu quickly overtook them, and they faced further competition from the re-emergence of the angels. Admitting defeat, the harpies explored other ways to establish themselves as a species. They eventually found the ability to drain magic at a touch. However, as the trait was embraced, the realization dawned on the downsides. Furthermore, the harpies began to realize they lost their ability to flight. Feeling as if they lost their roots, harpies began to try to rebuild their culture by themselves.

Harpies are largely seclusive in an attempt to try to rise back up by themselves. However, younger harpies are often interested in exploring what other cultures have to offer, and often abandon their village to explore the cities.
