Harpies of Logor

The rune hounds of Logor are just one of the area's dangers. Some of the Vines of Núlananya are
Jurusalax and his demon hounds
corrupted, probably suffering some chaos taint from the Dawn War or the Demon Spawn War. This corruption had made them carnivorous and a very dangerous predator of the forest.

Another dangerous area of Logor is along its northern rocky coasts. In this area are the nests of hundreds of harpies. They live in intricate tree houses, in hollowed out trunks of Logor's black oaks or in cliff caves. The harpies of Logor were once sprites that served under Silvanus in his campaign to drive back the demons. Jurusalax gave orders to capture these sprite rather than slaughter them. When they were captured and brought in for "special treatment", Jurusalax had them infused them with his own blood while at the same time taking their blood into himself. Only five sprites out of possibly a hundred survived these demoniac blood transfusions. One legend says that the blood that Jurusalax took from the sprites was like an aphrodisiac to him. The sprites that survived being infused with demon blood were corrupted, changing into abomination of their former selves. These corrupted and changed sprites became the realm's first harpies.
