Shin Megami Tensei NINE's demon roster consists of new designs, returning designs and REPEATED designs. And no demon demonstrates this better than Harpy, whose model appears in NINE's roster no less than 5 times. Rather than just post 5 gifs and be done with it like I normally do, I have decided to curate a short overview of the BEST Harpy appearances in MegaTen! Hit "Keep reading" (after viewing this post in my blog because the formatting gets fucked up if you don't) NOW!!!!

Harpy and Furiae appear in Shin Megami Tensei 1 but they don't share assets yet so who gives a crap. Siren is a blue harpy, I guess.

Furiae returns in Shin Megami Tensei II with a new sprite, joined by

Ocypete, Celaeno and Aello! There's some slight asset resharing among them as Aello and Furiae share the same base sprite, but the others share with non-harpy demons so as far as this post is concerned they're original. Combined with artist Kazuma Kaneko's tendency to embellish demon designs in artwork and you'd never expect that all these birds were destined to be textureswaps for an underperforming 2002 XBOX JRPG.

But they were! Now we're cooking! In Shin Megami Tensei NINE the 5 bird-ladies return in one fabulous package. If you love Harpy then you'll love Harpy being given a haircut and a dyejob and reappearing four times. You'll love how they appear alongside themselves for hours of gameplay because they're within the same 10-28 level range. As an added bonus for the asset-reuse lover, said gameplay takes place in looping CG render backgrounds arranged into dungeons so just imagine leaving the town square in Ocarina of Time and arriving in that exact town square except mirrored. By the end of NINE you will love asset reuse, because you will not make it to the end of NINE otherwise. (The harpies are also in Shin Megami Tensei IMAGINE but without the looping backgrounds it just isn't the same.)
Tumblr media
Honorable mention to Persona 1 which squeezed in the named furies Megaera, Tisiphone and Alecto by using the same upperbody sprite as the three named harpies. Unfortunately Atlus were too afraid to include the named harpy Podarge for a total of 7 unique birdladies, so Persona 1 will only be commemorated by an opacity-reduced overlay of the six they bothered including.
Tumblr media
Only regular Harpy survived to the DS-3DS era, using her Soul Hackers design where her head kind of looks like a pinecone. After gracing us with her presence in Strange Journey (+ Redux) and Shin Megami Tensei IV(+ Apocalypse), the Harpy disappeared from the pages of SMT history never to be seen again. As for actual history, I think Harpies were evil birds in Greek mythology but don't quote me on that.
Special thanks to @veskscans for the SMT1/2 art of Harpy, Furiae, Ocypete, Celaeno and Aello, and @eirikrjs for the Soul Hackers Harpy scan. NINE gifs by me, other sprites from the MegaTen wiki.

Harpies were generally depicted as birds with the heads of maidens, faces pale with hunger and long claws on their hands. The harpies seem originally to have been wind spirits (personifications of the destructive nature of wind). Their name means 'snatchers' or 'swift robbers', and they were said to steal food from their victims while they were eating and carry evildoers (especially those who have killed their families) to the Erinyes. When a person suddenly disappeared from the Earth, it was said that he had been carried off by the harpies.
Pottery art also depicting the harpies featured beautiful women with wings. Ovid described them as human-vultures.
To Hesiod, they were imagined as fair-locked and winged maidens, who flew as fast as the wind:
"[T]he Harpyiai (Harpies) of the lovely hair, Okypete (Ocypete) and Aello, and these two in the speed of their wings keep pace with the blowing winds, or birds in flight, as they soar and swoop, high aloft."
In this form they were agents of punishment who abducted people and tortured them on their way to Tartarus. They were depicted as vicious, cruel, and violent.
The harpies were called "the hounds of mighty Zeus" thus "ministers of the Thunderer (Zeus)". Later writers listed the harpies among the guardians of the underworld among other monstrosities including the Centaurs, Scylla, Briareus, Lernaean Hydra, Chimera, Gorgons and Geryo.While Roman and Byzantine writers detailed their ugliness.

Round 5 - Bachelor
Tumblr media
Or for worse
-Brother, I am desperate, please do something! One day, Bella rushed to Michael's house with Cassandra and Sylvia-Marie. Her daughter's consition was worsening despite her best effort, hence Sylvia's introduction to the scene - as a paranormal researcher, she also tried her best to stabilize the little girl.
What they all did not account for, was that Shelan was at home as well. The overall scene and their discussions have disturbed her greatly.
-I can't take it anymore, Michael, - she told him after a screaming match ensued. - This is very wrong, children are affected, we all are affected. And me, stuck in this mess with you all? Do something and help me get out of this cursed town. I have to find my father no matter what, and who knows how much time has passed out there.
Tumblr media
It took several weeks for Shelan to calm down. Her relationship with the Goths / Bachelors felt like a roller-coaster, but in the end she found peace, and their friendship with Bella was stronger than ever.
Women supported each other and discussed many of the problems, and though Bella told some snippets of info about the whole experiment, she kept some details in the shadows. Nevertheless, she promised her friend that they were still looking for ways to help her reunite with the loved once from the "outside", and also promised that travelling further away from the town would soon become possible.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Michael, too, grew fond of his roomate and a "partner in crimes", and offered Shelan to start an official relationship. Or at least try doing so. After pondering the question, Shelan agreed to it in the end.
-But just so you know, I do not want to create a family. Not yet, when I have no family of my own behind my back. And... not when the children are suffering. -It's alright. We are going to be working towards the better future still, won't we?

Round 6 - Bachelor

House of tensions
Due to constant disturbances from Chris' team and other protestors, Michael and Shelan decided to "run away" on a little vacation to rest and calm down, and to try out this new spot that was discovered (and apparently "allowed") under the timeless cap.
While they were away, yet another burglary attempt was made, but thanks to Michael's inventions, the protection system went off and a young criminal was quickly apprehended.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
-How was the trip? - Mortimer inquired when he visited the household after both Michael and Shelan were back. -It's alright. The coastline is quite lovely, I do recommend you take your vacations there too. -And what about work? -I... managed to get something.
Shelan passed over an interesting figurine of a unicorn.
-I couldn't find anything else for the time being. Not like I would be able to dig around with Michael somewhere near me. But this statue... is kind of peculiar in its own way. -I agree, we could work with this. But I wanted to know how was your "actual" work? -Oh, I'm... editing videos. -No progress in finding anything about your relatives? -I'm afraid not...
Mortimer sighed. -You've helped around so much, Shelan, especially with anything that has to do with our children, that I am kind of embarassed our community is unable to return the favor. But finally, I might have met someone who looks like you a lot, and I thought... just maybe... you and this person could be related?
Shelan perked up. -Whoever this person is, I'd like to meet them.
