Heart Harpy

Heart Harpies are a newer variation that occurred when Crysta brought some harpies over to Lovcore. Heart Harpies was an adaptation triggered by Crysta when she hosted a large number of Common Harpy eggs. Since their first appearance they've been quickly populating, in love areas the most. Heart Harpies are a light pink in colour for the most part, but their tails and upper parts of their legs are a sharper hot pink and their nesting section is an even deeper pink. Heart Harpies have rich feathers which are very cozy to the touch, which helps Heart Harpies find comfort in any location. It is found that Heart Harpies receiving frequent love energy allows their cells to renew to an extent, which as a result, raises their lifespan about eight times their original. Their breeding patterns differ from the Common Harpy in that they will breed whenever they feel like it, there is no seasons for them. They are more likely to breed in warm weather. Heart Harpies select partners much like Common Harpies, so they'll commonly snatch a male and bring them to their nest. There are no known male Heart Harpies yet, but it is theorized that females may still have courting capabilities like the Common Harpy. Heart Harpies in the Love Zone will snatch either gender and they are more likely to keep that one for a long period of time. Heart Harpies will groom their partners and cuddle a lot more. There is one exception to a Heart Harpy's physical experience and that is the Master Heart Harpy, one of the first Heart Harpies created by Crysta. This Heart Harpy's height exceeds the normal maximum height, getting towards the 5 meter mark, though this was mostly thanks to Crysta. It is likely that the lifespan of this Harpy will far exceed that of the others given that she remains in a Love Zone for a majority of her lifespan.

Appearance

Heart Harpies are overall a light pink. Their tails and upper parts of their legs are a sharp hot pink. Their nesting area is a deeper pink. They have multiple layers of feathers on their heads, the first layer being hair-like feathers, the second layer being slightly fluffy. However, if they're showing off or courting, they can fluff this layer up to look cute and cuddly. Their faces are smooth and charming to match their characteristics. They have strong necks that are an average length. They have the same thin layer of feathers around their ears for enhanced hearing. They have fluffy feathers around their ears as well, which they'll show off if courting. They have strong shoulders which supports their wings. Their wings are similar to a Common Harpy, although light pink. Their wings contain much more feathers and feel a lot softer though. They have large chests, which they also use to show off, having extra comfortable feathers in that area, which cover more of the chest area compared to the Common Harpy, though the upper centre part of their breasts do not have feathers. They have adorable curves and strong hips. Heart Harpies have large rears and will use that for courting advantages as well. Their feathers are very thick from their hips down to their knees before becoming a thin layer of feathers down to their ankles. Heart Harpies have large talons, mostly because they can go after large targets if they wanted to.

Behaviour

Heart Harpies are highly social with each other. They are somewhat social with other harpies. They have been known to converse with non-harpies as well, given that they can speak in a bird language or in English. Heart Harpies are keen on love, which is no surprise. Harpies are known to take people to the afterlife and Heart Harpies are no exception. The criteria required is passing away blissfully with a partner, in which the Heart Harpy will take both to the afterlife. Of course this means the other of the pair will die as well, even if they're perfectly healthy, however, this pair would remain together. Heart Harpies are the most likely of all Harpies to socialize with someone in a casual situation, but this is an uncommon event. Heart Harpies also create communities when they find a compatible place. Apparently Heart Harpies have a deadly attractive smooching ability in which they can smooch someone so strongly that they can permanently trap them in the clutches of love. Heart Harpies don't utilize this often as they like their other abilities.

Climate

Heart Harpies are only found on Lovcore, where Crysta created them. Most of them are found in Love Zones. While they are difficult to spot, Heart Harpies are the most likely to spot compared to other harpies, given that you are in a Love Zone. They like warm environments, being happiest in cozy 25°C temperatures. They are also most likely to breed the closer to this temperature they're at. Heart Harpy communities are cleverly hidden and hard to find, as they're in Love Zones, but their communities are underground. More often than not there's underground mazes before reaching a Heart Harpy community. If you are lucky enough to find one, you're unlikely to escape without a Heart Harpy seducing you though. Heart Harpies may set communities in other areas as well, but there's no known accounts of this so far.

Reproduction

Harpies theoretically would court using methods similar to Common Harpies if there was males of their type. They court in a few other ways as well, such as fluffing the feathers on their heads. They also love to express their hips, chest and rears when they are courting. When they're snatching males, they'll court them after they make it to their nests. Heart Harpies are some of the best nesters of all the harpies due to how rich their feathers are. Heart Harpies also like to "date" those they snatch. After some proper buildup, they'll initiate a lot, even if they're already forming eggs. They take 5 days to form eggs and Heart Harpies form some rather large eggs. They'll lay 2 to 8 eggs after this and they'll often nest their partner as they lay the eggs. Afterwards the partner will be secured in the nest along with the eggs. Heart Harpies love to spoil their partners, so it is basically a carefree life with a Heart Harpy. Offspring are extremely adorable, as their feathers are extra fluffy, they start with a faint pink on their feathers, which gradually changes to their adult colours. Heart Harpies take two years to fully mature, and in this time their mother, and sometimes partner, will train them during these two years. Heart Harpies breastfeed their children, and often include cuddling with it. They'll occasionally involve their partner in the feeding.
