Harridans are the highest strata of lamyros society, higher even than the lamia matriarchs who rule many tribes of the weaker lamia. While they are the highest strata, they are also by far the rarest of their family. For the Harridan template from the Anniversary Edition of the Rise of the Runelords adventure path, see Harridan (Template).

- Between the mountain peaks and above the valleys of the Andes soar a number of large birds and pterosaurs. They circle in the winds rising from the valley heads and the updrafts from warm hill slopes. One of the largest of these soaring creatures is the harridan, a pterosaur. It can maneuver expertly while in flight. The air sweeping over its broad wings is controlled by additional membranes attached to the second and third fingers of the hand. These two fingers are elongated but not as much as the fourth finger that in all pterosaurs, supports the main flying membrane. The first finger carries a claw which is used when the animal is crawling on cliff faces. Its head is almost mammal-like, with an elongated snout and sharp teeth at the front. The eyes are directed forward and give a good stereoscopic vision. This pterosaur is a solitary animal. It mates for life and nests on high pinnacles in the mountains, rearing no more than two young each year. With its warm-blooded physiology, and its carnivorous hunting habits, it is very similar to the predatory birds that are found in the mountainous areas of other ecozones. The harridan has very keen eyesight and can spot smaller animals scampering about on the ledges hundreds of meters below. It then swoops out of the sky and pounces accurately on its food. Its prey usually consists of the small mammals (placental eutherians and ameridelphian marsupials) that have adopted a mountain habitat. Sometimes it might go after a small non-avian dinosaur, such as a dip.

- El Harridan es uno de los mayores Tiránidos alados que el Imperio ha avistado hasta ahora, sólo superado en tamaño por el Vituperaptor. Tiene dos grandes bio-cañones y dos afiladas garras para descender en picado y destruir tanques, acribillar las tropas enemigas y cerrar sus enormes mandíbulas en torno a un soldado sin suerte. Los Magos Biologis del Adeptus Mechanicus han señalado que se han encontrado Harridans con una gran variedad de tamaños. Algunos son enormes, con más de 30 metros de longitud y una envergadura de 40 metros, mientras que otros, mucho más pequeños, estaban muy por debajo del tamaño necesario para ser considerados Bio-Titanes. Debido a su condición de criatura viva y a contar con alas en lugar de con motores a reacción, el Harridan no puede superar a una aeronave en cuanto a velocidad en línea recta, pero gracias a su cuerpo flexible, puede controlar perfectamente su vuelo, siendo su trayectoria y maniobrabilidad excelentes, lo que le permite girar y maniobrar para evitar el fuego enemigo. Además, parece ser que el Harridan es capaz de sobrevivir en el vacío del espacio, ya que ciertas bio-naves la emplean en el combate nave-nave. El Harridan parece actuar como madre de progenie para las pequeñas gárgolas. Se cree que Gárgolas carecen de la resistencia necesaria para volar distancias extremadamente largas, pero se sabe que se pueden engancharse al vientre de un Harridan, empleando sus ganchos y pinzas para adherirse al enorme tiránido. El Harridan no tiene piernas o pies de ningún tipo y se ha teorizado que, una vez en el aire, un Harridan nunca aterriza. Otra teoría postula que es capaz de desplazarse sobre su vientre como una serpiente. Ninguna de estas teorías ha podido ser confirmada o desmentida aún.

On Beta Anphelion IV Inquisitor Lok's forces encountered at least two Harridans, when the creatures conducted a devastating surprise aerial attack against the Elysian Drop Troops' landing fields. The two creatures destroyed or damaged almost all the Elysian aircraft, in a deliberate attempt to cripple the Drop Troops' mobility. The anti-aircraft defences for the landing ground proved insufficient to stop the Harridans. In 814.M41, Deathwatch forces fighting to cleanse Herisor of the Tyranid menace reported devastating initial losses due in large part to attacks from Harridans and associated Gargoyles. While the smaller flyers distracted ground troops with swooping attacks and strafing runs, the Harridans crippled Imperial aircraft, thereby preventing effective air-transport of ground troops. It is well known throughout the Orpheus Salient that less than half of the Space Marines who fought on Herisor survived. Many of the those who fell in these battles lost their lives to Tyranid Harridans.
