The screeching presence of harpies is a familiar facet of the wilds of Norrath. Within the desert of Ro , however, a special clan of the half-bird, half-woman monsters has taken up residence. The windsisters are a tight-knit tribe of especially hateful bird women who seem to be bent on dominating the rocky spires of their home.
The windsister harpies prefer the higher ledges and rock towers of Norrath. They seldom enter the narrow confines of the valley floor, preferring to leave that area for other creatures. This does not mean, however, that they are above swooping down to strike at vulnerable foes or steal valuables left out in the open. Part scavenger, part hunter, the harpies seek to take advantage of every opportunity that presents itself.
The windsister culture is a tribal matriarchy. Various elder sisters rule the local roots while kowtowing to an ancient brood mother. Every member harpy has the ability to lay self-fertilized eggs under the supervision of an elder sister. In the harsh reality of harpy life, these eggs are often cannibalistically consumed as food by the tribe during hard times or shattered during the nearly constant bickering between the members of the tribe.
