Oread
An oread is a mountain nymph associated with the Goddess Artemis, later in Roman times known as Diana. Probably because she enjoyed hunting in the mountains. Nymphs of all kinds are young, nubiles. They seem to enjoy dancing naked in the woods. Which makes me wonder about ancient biting bugs. I digress. Nymphs were often the target of satyrs, satyrs are sometimes portrayed as ugly & old, sometimes as sexy and half-goats. All satyrs are sexually ravenous and drink much wine.
