* HarpingOnAboutHarpies: Harpies sent by Zeus are what chased Storkules out of Greece, and they followed him to Duckburg. Here, harpies look like anthropomorphic vultures with human hair, pointy ears and a WingedHumanoid physique (i.e. they have both wings and arms with talons on their fingers), and are all about stealing what one loves most. They also love lemons.
