The Lore of The Harpy | The Chronicles of Azeroth
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 июл 2024
- In the vast expanse of Azeroth, where ancient powers stir and the skies tell tales of old, there exists a race whose elegance belies their fierce determination to protect the mountainous lands they call home. These creatures, with their slender forms and powerful wings, are the embodiment of nature's untamed spirit and its tempestuous wrath.
As matriarchs of the heavens, born from a legacy as old as the world itself, they wield primal forces with a mastery that speaks to their divine origins. Let us, together, navigate the winds of history, and allow me, the Loremaster of this species, to unfold the hidden knowledge and ancestral stories that define the Harpies, a mystical race like no other.
Now that we are on the verge of unravelling the mystique of the Harpies, we are invited to look beyond the tales of savagery, to the core of a race bound by the rhythms of the natural world and the ancient pacts that govern their existence. But as we delve deeper, one must wonder-In a world where power is often seized by force, to whom do the skies and mountains of Azeroth truly belong? Is it those who claim it by might, those who are born to it, or those who understand its deepest secrets? The answer, wrapped in the winds of Azeroth, may be as varied and vast as the lands themselves.

Dear wanderers of Azeroth,
Today, let us journey into the Lore of the Harpies! Enjoy!
another piece, i share with my roleplay community.
I was looking these harpy gals up earlier . Be kool to play as a harpy threw a illusion trinket . The modern retail model looks fantastic
Hello friend, this video has been approved by FB for benig according to guidelines. AI first was suspicious, but I asked a fair investigation this video was approved. Regards, Alex.
I was gonna write a joke but everyone kept harping on me.
I can't quite put my finger on it, but I've always really liked Harpies. I think they are such fascinating creatures.
Ferocious and beautiful at the same time!
@@TheChroniclesofAzerothExactly!
They are very cool but vicious. I hate their shrieking voices.
They were nude in WC3
Seems I very vaguely remembered some in Vanilla that appeared braless. Could that be so or is it a mis-memory?
@@DISTurbedwaffle918
The Audiobook of War of the Ancients made me love Aviana...she just wants to make sure her children live and thrive and are happy. And we go and destroy them 😅 She was one of the ancients that fought and died in the War against Sargeras. She also commanded the birds, but the Harpies are like her true children, similar to her.
I also like how she talks, Aviana talks in a singing voice and repeats the last word, like an echo. In the audiobooks she sounds a bit detached from the world, since she is mostly in the sky.
The Harpies are so pretty, I like how menacing they look too. They are femenine but also feral, and they obviously have a culture because we can see they make huts/nests, and jewelry. I like them.
Harpies have filthy nests covered in gore and excriment and its stated multiple times that they capture men to forcibly mate with. They're not nice creatures
Aviana's tale weaves sorrow and beauty in equal measure. The harpies embody that fierce grace and wild spirit, a reflection of their matron in many ways. Thank you for joining us today!
Always hated how we never got any expansions or follow ups on the original Azeroth races and possible good factions for them. Seeing the gnolls or harpies as a friendly faction and getting to see their society and culture would be amazing. A hollowed out tree similar to the night elves starting zone or something similar to grizzlemaw but filled with harpies flying around the branches would be beautiful
Well, they made the centaurs out of good guys. I think it's interesting that harpies can have different breeds among them, like a royal hawk owl or a bird harpy.
Not to mention the strong connection with their Druidism, I particularly wish they'd take away those raspy voices and give them a more angelic garlic, as if they'd already moved on from that wild era
And of course the kobolds are a nice addition too as Hearthstone shows with fubalumba and they use candles to prevent the darkness from killing them the gnols are a bit more difficult but we could have a tribe of gnols who see value in someone who knows how to fight.
@@marcellosouzabeltrao9257 would definitely like to see a more advanced version of the harpies, not technologically, but in the sense that they evolved from the corruption of their race and go back to being more regal and less aggressive, maybe from being isolated from the other races on an island or something with the emerald dream cleansing them. They could stay as territorial and fighters, but have their Druidism make them realize they need to work with the other druids as well and reveal themselves to both factions. I don’t even play the game anymore but the lore of all the different races and factions are some of the best in any fantasy series, and then it’s like they just stopped caring after the first few expansions and just focused on money over content
A belated response, but your sentiment is evergreen!
Your vision paints a fascinating world, one that stretches the boundaries of our current understanding and appreciation of Azeroth.
The idea of seeing traditionally marginalized races like Gnolls or Harpies in a friendly light, complete with their own rich societies and cultures, is a refreshing perspective.
The untold stories and potential alliances with Azeroth's many races hold a well of depth we have yet to fully explore or appreciate!
I was seriously about to comment about the harpies' elegance juxtaposed with their menace as soon as I opened the video, and you mentioned elegance right away and menace just a couple minutes in. YOU GET IT.
These videos are so cool. They sound so professional (David Attenborough of Azeroth), and they are so in-depth. You understand the fun fantasy of WOW and take the lore so seriously (for the purpose of these videos) that it's almost camp-y, but not in a cringey way. Keep up the great work!! I'd love a behind-the-scenes glimpse into how you write your scripts, gather the footage, and decide how it all fits together.
Ah, we share a vision then! To grasp the dichotomy of the harpies' elegance and menace is to understand the essence of Azeroth's inhabitants.
The depth of my affection for this world stems from a longstanding bond with its tales. Bringing its stories to life on your screen is a passion that has recently blossomed, allowing me to channel that resonance into something visual and vivid!
Perhaps one day soon, I shall offer a glimpse in the creation behind these narratives!
@@TheChroniclesofAzeroth bro even when you write a comment, it come out all profound😂
As a loremaster, my words often carry the resonance of the old tales, intentional or not :)
Oh MAN what a great idea for videos. I hope regular troops like Stormwind soldiers and random faction troops are on the worklist in the future!
Great to see you again! Every soldier has a story; rest assured, their tales will not go untold, thanks for the suggestion!
My afternoon is always made when I see a new upload. Thank you for these awesome videos!
My pleasure, fellow adventurer! Enjoy!
You know why there fascinating 😅
Another banger of a video! Still can’t wait for the Lore of the Scarlet Crusade!
This Loremaster has to navigate a vast sea of tales with but a small hourglass to do so! The Scarlet Crusade lore awaits its turn on the scroll, and your continued patience is greatly appreciated!
Love these videos man keep up the great work
Appreciate your support! Enjoy!
This video is a must-watch for every Warcraft aficionado due to its lifelike images and vivid narration, which truly bring these flying animals to life. Continue with the excellent job!
To animate Azeroth's creatures and legends for connoisseurs such as yourself is a quest in its own right. Your words are as uplifting as the winds that carry the harpies!
Harpies are one of those nostalgia creatures for me. Raging about the drop rates in mulgores and getting ganked by 5 of them in the barrens. Great video
Ah, the nostalgia of harpy encounters-these shared trials are what forge our fondest memories, even if they're sometimes tinged with frustration. Thanks for joining us on this adventure!
I love this channel so much! Its like a NatGeo documentary but for WoW. I dont even play the game but it sounds so cool to listen to you talk about the different tribes and the ecology. Could you do the Arakkoa sometime? That race looks so cool and Id love to know more. Thank you so much! :)
As a player I second this! They’re fascinating and full of great lore.
NatGeo of WoW-now that's a title to aspire to! The Arakkoa, with their soaring ambitions and long, sombre past, are certainly on the list! Your patience and enthusiasm are greatly appreciated!
Duly noted!
You sir, are a blessing. Thank you for your work. Listening to you is like a cup of hot chocolate on a cold winter evening. Keep up the good work!
Your words warm the lorekeeper's heart more than the finest Dwarven stout. Thank you for the kindness and for joining me by the hearth of Azeroth's tales!
Once again, beautifully done. This has made me wonder about the harpie's history as well as their mating habits.
Allowing your mind to wander through such realms is ever a wise path. Continue on your quest for knowledge and understanding!
Harpies are among my favourite fantasy races and that goes for WOW as well. I have always been fascinated by them and added my own thoughts to them. My Tauren Shaman in my mind comes from the area of the dry hills in the barrens and his tribe has been pushed to Mulgure and Thunderbluff by the Harpies there
And of course this video as amazing - as are the others. Your voice, how you frame them, the music and video material. Amazing work
Harpies hold a special place in the mythos of many, your Tauren Shaman's story included. It's these personal connections that enrich our collective journey through Warcraft's world. Thank you for the kind words, and see you in our next adventure!
This just made my day. Man videos like this just make me so happy. Thank you
Glad to hear it! To bring joy through tales of Azeroth is the highest honour!
Incredible video, as always. Thank you so much for this lovely journey.
I'm sorry for not responding sooner. Your kind words are a beacon on this journey, guiding the telling of Azeroth's stories. Thank you for being part of this wondrous voyage.
I love these videos. Thank you so much for making them .
Your words are as welcome as a hearth's warmth on a chilly evening. Thank you for watching and making the journey worthwhile!
Thanks
Your generosity helps the chronicles continue. A heartfelt thank you, Patiofurnitr!
@TheChroniclesofAzeroth I am humbled by your appreciation. It is you I have to thank Loremaster, you bring so much joy to the game I love.
Great work with these lessons, loremaster. Many thanks 😊
Gratitude, traveller! It's an honour to be your guide through the history of Azeroth!
Loved this!
Glad you enjoyed it! Are there any other races in Azeroth that you would like to learn more about?
@@TheChroniclesofAzeroth Definitely! Maybe this was covered a bit in your Mulgore video, but I love the Tauren. Perhaps the Loa, but that's not really a race... I also love the Tuskarr and the Taunka. Also, as a zone: Arathi Highlands!
Many thanks for the suggestions! I have them all written down and will get to them when the time comes!
Always loved these gals. Love your WoW lore videos. Such a treat!
Glad you like them, enjoy! I'm curious, which aspects of Azeroth's lore or which races do you wish to journey through next?
@@TheChroniclesofAzerothThe races of azeroth as well as the intricacies and exceptions to the various magic systems (fel, void, arcane, life, elemental etc) are my two main obsessions with WoW lore. As for the races I am always a fan of trolls and elves but they’ve been talked about many times, however I never see anyone talking about the Pandaren! I always found their lore and the culture between mainland vs Wandering Isle pandas pretty interesting! :)
Many thanks for the great suggestions, all noted!
Loved seeing a video on these vicious yet majestic creatures. They really are unique in their visuals compared to harpies of other games.
My only complaint of the video was the exception of the harpy nests in Highmountain. But I'm assuming that's because there was little lore on that particular group.
Appreciation for your keen eye. Highmountain's Harpy nests, while intriguing, remain shrouded in mystery-perhaps a future exploration awaits as our adventure continues to unfold.
Walked in on my friend watching a regular documentary show. I told him I watch these too.
There's a unique charm in sharing the tales of Azeroth, akin to the documentaries of our world. May these tales continue to intrigue and inform you and your friend!
I love Harpies, I feel they are heavily underutilized in WoW and I hope they eventually introduce Male Harpies.
Then we will finally be rid of the rumours surrounding their reproduction!
@@TheChroniclesofAzeroth Exactly! WoW eventually gave us Incubus so I have my hopes.
Greetings and respect to thee most benevolent friend, binds when picked up. I admire your loyalty to the natural world, me to. It was a noble maiden of Elven priesthood and surpassing beauty who ventured with me deep into Feralas where we did corpse runs on harpies in 2005 because we were too low level for Feralas and really wanted the items. This also happened in Warsong Gulch, turns out we are both Italian. We do not fear death, we stand strong and restore morale with firmness for the selection of Legio Imperium Senatus Populus Pro Romanorum. I am dedicated to Dionysos, so I'm drunk. Regards, Alex.
Forgive the delay in my response, Alex. Your tales of camaraderie in the wilds of Feralas and the battlegrounds echo the timeless spirit of Azeroth. May your adventures be as bountiful as they are bold, and may Dionysos bless your revelries!
@@TheChroniclesofAzeroth sure, that's what they all say.
I always found them interesting in Durotar.
Apologies, my response has arrived at a slower pace than I wished! And regarding the harpies of Durotar, their presence certainly adds an intriguing layer to the landscape, don't you think? What other tribes in Azeroth caught your attention?
Can you please do the lore of the centaurs?
The centaur, offspring of Cenarius' wayward son, are indeed deserving of their own Lore overview. Your request echoes in the halls of creation!
👍👍
Much appreciated! Enjoy!
A fierce creature! For the alliance!
For the Alliance, and for all who stand in awe of its creatures!
As a child back in the day i always thought harpies were females and Wildkins were males....now I know
Childhood impressions of Azeroth's creatures are often full of connections and wonder. They might just as well have been true!
i wouldnt sleep with a gnome but the ancients well know id sleep with a harpy
The ancients of Azeroth surely had eclectic tastes! Perhaps in dreams, one can walk with any creature, be it gnome or harpy.
so you never see guy harps but human skulls in nest and eggs do they breed with males from the races or they like ants and queens be dumping eggs in mass do they lure adventure people or take them and trap them its never shown or answered
Indeed, it's all still only rumours and superstition! What are the Harpies hiding from plain sight?
No new harpies model, man
Me watching this hoping for the original disturbing lore...
New lore video, isnta click!
Apologies for the late reply; the tomes and scrolls demand much of this old loremaster. Your keen interest are what legends are made of!
What'chu say 'bout my momma?!
Nothing but respect for the matriarchs of the skies!
the most annoying mobs to kill in classic due to their voicelines. troggs come close, but these bit...s take the cake. xD
Indeed, the cacophony of Azeroth's creatures is music to some, a siren's call to others!
AI. 🙃
Is the narrator AI or not? Sometimes his pronunciations are odd.
The voice, indeed made possible through the latest AI, may at times sound strange to the ear. Hopefully that does not detract overly from the grand tales and mysteries of Azeroth.
I deeply wished these were voiced by an actual human being.
Too much fluff and not enough lore...
A lorekeeper's path is ever winding and I'll take your words as signposts to ensure the right balance is struck in our future endeavours.
I love your videos.
Apologies for the belated response! Thank you kindly, your enjoyment means a lot to me!
Smash, next.
