The Harpy Eagle. (Harpia harpyjais)
This creature could be inspired by the legend of the harpy, a winged creature from Greek mythology with the body of a bird and the head of a woman. Harpies are often depicted as vicious and cruel beings who would snatch and torment humans. Their hybrid form is meant to symbolize a disturbing blend of animal and human traits, evoking primal fears associated with the unnatural.
A harpy was a rapacious monster in Greek and Roman mythology which had the head and body of a woman and wings and talons, or was a bird of prey with a woman's face.Nice!It is actually unknown. A *Harpy* is a wierd greek and roman creature, yes, but a half-woman half-eagle is not a Harpy. Or at least not the Greek and Roman Harpy. There is another spelling of Harpy. It is: *Harpie*This is most likely the most logical answer for the question. Since it is not actually a defined word (Harpy= greek and roman), we can create or mold this word into a new definition :D*Harpie*: A half-female half-bird creature. Can be any type of bird, but most common is an eagle. Any other type of bird mix is extremely rare. Human female body, except for the wings, elf like ears, black eyes, claws, eagle like feet (claw in the heel, 2 "toe like" things with claws), and fangs. There is a very close picture of this Harpie or half-eagle half-woman. It is at...Ricillustrations.com.The picture is called "Tug-A-War"It is in the "Graphites" section.
It usually comes after the word creature. Ex. Creature - Vampire
is not a creature... is a "thing."
No, creature type is the entry occurring after the hyphen. The 'artifact' in the line 'artifact creature - X' is either an additional card type or a supertype, most likely the former.
Not sure i understand your question. A phoenix is a recognized creature type of Wizards of the coast. So any and all phoenix creature cards are creature type phoenix. Hope that helps
