Phaedra
The harpy Phaedra is one of the mythical Heroes of Ithicus who fought during Jahar's Descent. She is said to have been a powerful cleric of Iridus, with some historians naming her a Shadar-Kai, one of the Raven Queen's chosen.
Legends say that she descended from the stars, clad in the night sky, to captain Iridus's ferry boat, The Korax and deliver lost souls to their final rest.
Some reports seem to confuse Phaedra with another prominent harpy ship captain of the era known as The Cacophony, but this figure was a smuggler, and not the legendary hero we know today.
Always a faithful servant of the Raven Queen, Phaedra hunted down the servants of Jahar even after the cataclysm at Ithicus, bringing the remnant souls to Iridus's domain.
The song, Her Raven Wings Will Carry You (Across the Starry Sea), by the troubadour Melíssa, depicts Phaedra.
