__NOTOC__ Introduced in [[Fun-Day_Fridays#October_2024|Fun-Day Fridays 11]]. ==Description== ==Recall== Harpies are often drawn to regions of strong elemental energy, adapting traits that mirror their environment. The cinderwing harpies of Pivilho Volcano have embraced both wind and fire, building their colony along the rugged volcanic slopes. Though small in stature, these harpies exhibit remarkable cunning and magical prowess -- enough to hold their own against the fiercely territorial drakes inhabiting the neighboring slope. Sightings by locals produce reports of the feathered folk stealing meat from the drakes or plummeting from the sky to snatch fish from the sea and whisking their prize back to the Ember Aerie, as their home is known to those brave enough to venture near. Many harpies possess mercurial tempers or a magpie-like tendency to steal small, shiny objects that catch their eye. They have been observed divebombing unsuspecting prey then shrieking with laughter as they fly away, leaving their victims startled but unharmed. Though it is often used with awkward syntax and harsh tones, harpies are known to speak Common when the mood strikes. The cinderwing harpys are known to cast the [[Fire Shards]], [[Flame Shockwave]], [[Vertigo]], and [[Thunderclap]] spells. They are known to carry loot in locked boxes. ==In Depth== ==Equipment/Loot== * {{sloot|w|curved obsidian talon knife with a kelp-wrapped handle}} * {{sloot|a|supple leather sleeves adorned with puka shells}} * {{sloot|a|supple leather cowl with puka shells trimming the hood}} * {{sloot|i|long tunic improvised from cloth scraps and layered seaweed}} * {{sloot|a|supple leather greaves plated with sea turtle scutes}} * {{sloot|a|supple leather jerkin armored with pieces of sea turtle shell}} ==Special Attacks== Giggling softly, a cinderwing harpy snaps her fingers and extends a hand toward the sky. With a piercing shriek, a spectral firehawk dives at you! The blazing avian raptor rips at your neck, landing a hard (6/23) hit as its fiery plumage flashes and flares brilliantly before the scarlet bird turns abruptly white and explodes in a shower of cinders.<br> ==Messaging== *Spawn: ''Strolling quietly into the area, a cinderwing harpy assesses his surroundings with an unblinking yellow gaze. *Entrance: ''With a faint stirring of wind, a cinderwing harpy skids into the area with her scarlet-tipped black wings mantled to slow her momentum. *Exit: ''Cackling madly, a cinderwing harpy skips out of the area, her speed bolstered by powerful downstrokes of her scarlet-tipped black wings. *Death1: '' *Death2: '' *Decay: '' *Searching: '' *SpellPrep ''Opening one hand palm up, a cinderwing harpy summons a tiny scarlet flame and is momentarily mesmerized by the dancing colors. *SpellPrep ''The cinderwing harpy makes a subtle twirling gesture with one hand to shape a fiery cyclone of ruby and gold sparks that flickers briefly before fading away. *SpellCast ''A cinderwing harpy makes a flicking motion, launching the small firedrop in her hand. *SpellCast ''A cinderwing harpy raises both arms and brings them down with a sharp slash, sending a vortex of smoldering embers swirling out from her. *Random ''Standing perfectly still, the cinderwing harpy stares off into the distance with her eerie yellow eyes unblinking. After a moment, the focus is lost and the harpy gives herself a little shake, adjusting her feathers and appearing alert once again. *Random ''With a look of disgust, a cinderwing harpy flicks tiny embers at a small spiderweb and gleefully hisses, "Burn with fire," as the wispy threads melt away into nothingness. {{RefAl}}
