Well here's a big, ungainly tree-topper: a kind of harpy with gleaming metal feathers and steel-clawed feet. The feathers are sharp; just by perching on this tree she's rendered it the worse for wear, bending the tip under her not inconsiderable weight, sending severed needles, branchlets, and the odd ornament tumbling to the ground.
Not that anyone here knows how Stormwings usually look and smell, but she's cleaner than most of them and doesn't smell as strongly. This is not to say she doesn't smell, a clammy metal-and-skin odor like you get when, well, when skin oils and sweat mingle with steel. Her long black hair is falling out of a messy bun, which invites the question of how it got put up in the first place, since she's not the kind of harpy with hands. If she has any modesty, it's questionably preserved by necklaces that drape across her otherwise bare chest.
"Looks like it was quite a party, pigeon," she calls down, and smiles lazily. Her teeth have the gleam of steel.
