You can thank Graham for this picture from the WotC site:

What do ya know?  She still looks kinda pissed, but it’s definitely an improvement over her previous attire!

Angry Saggy Harpie

I mean, do you see the sag going on due to the lack of proper support? No wonder harpies are so irritable! A good bra is worth its weight in gold pieces, as any girl (geek or otherwise) can tell you.

I’ve decided that in a future D&D campaign, I will play some sickeningly Good character whose mission in life is to knit bras for harpies. I imagine it would look something like this (pardon my awful Photoshop skills!):

New and Improved!

What do you think? She looks so much happier, doesn’t she?
