Erinyes (Furies)'s Clique: Winged Wonders
This group just loves to soar the friendly skies. You can catch them winging their way from class to class, and after school, their feet barely touch the ground. Not many of the other members of this group like to fly with the Erinyes, and we're not surprised. The Erinyes don't really care, though; they don't have time for small talk when they're off to right some wrongs.
Daedalus and Icarus
Daedalus, the famous inventor, was one of the first humans ever to fly the friendly skies. He escaped from imprisonment on Crete by flapping away on wings he made out of wax and feathers. This worked out great for him, but not so great for his son, whose wings melted. That was the end for Icarus, that's for sure.
Nemesis
Nemesis and the Erinyes have a whole lot in common, and yes, this does a include having wings. Nemesis is one of very few members of this group who likes soar with the Erinyes, winging their way toward revenge.
Sirens
These sexy ladies are often confused with mermaids, but they're actually half bird instead of fish. The Sirens are most famous for their gorgeous, mesmerizing songs. We don't recommend downloading any of their tracks anytime soon, though. Their songs may have been beautiful, but they also hypnotized sailors, luring them to their deaths on jagged rocks. Yikes.
Harpies
The Harpies are kind of like the Sirens' disgusting cousins. These bird ladies have disgusting warty faces, matted hair, and dirty stinking feathers. Their favorite thing to do is snatch food off of people's tables and then poop on the leftover crumbs. We are absolutely not making this up.
Eros (Cupid)
Come Valentine's Day, you see this little winged guy everywhere. Eros, the Greek god of desire, was the son of Aphrodite, the goddess of love. He spends most of his time fluttering around and causing trouble with his love-inducing golden arrows.
Hraesvelg
However you pronounce this, Hraesvelg is an eagle from Norse mythology that hangs out on ice mountains and flaps his wings to send super cold winds. Don't mess with him.
Ashur
Ashur was an Assyrian god of war, who had four wings and the head of an eagle. He started out as a puny god of the city of Assur, but gained in popularity until he became one of the big deal gods. So, yeah, his OkCupid gets mad hits.
Garuda
This Indian deity was a god of the sun and had the head and claws of an eagle. The main thing to know about him is that he hated snakes. Like, hated them.
