daphnaea:@thewinedarksea‘s mythology meme: creatures (¼) - samodivaSamodivas are believed to be very beautiful women with an affinity for fire. They have the power to bring about drought, burn a farmer’s crops, or make cattle die of high fever. It is said that, when angered, a Samodiva can change her appearance and turn into a monstrous bird, capable of throwing fire at her enemies. This, with the power of their seductive voices, makes them somewhat similar to Harpies in Greek mythology. Their vindictive nature also complements this notion. -- source link
