Eris

Eris (Ancient Greek: Ἔρις, "Strife") was the Ancient Greek goddess of strife, chaos and discord.

Contrary to mythology and, as explained by Rashid ad-Din Sinan, Eris used an Apple of Eden to start the Trojan War, as opposed to her guiles.

Trivia

• Like her described nature, the name Eris, Ἔρις, is Greek for "strife".

• In Greek mythology, Eris used a golden apple to attract Hera, Aphrodite, and Athena to collect it. However, as Eris requested, a judge must choose the righteous one for the apple, to which she chose Zeus. However, as Zeus didn't want his wife to be jealous if he favored another woman, he chose Paris, the son of King Priam of Troy, to take his place. While the three goddesses each promised Paris a gift in exchange, the latter chose Aphrodite, who then suggested that Paris take Helen of Sparta. Due to these events, the Trojan War was later enacted.

• In Greek Mythology Eris is the Greek goddess of chaos, strife and discord. Her name is translated into Latin as Discordia, which means "discord." Eris' Greek opposite is Harmonia, whose Latin counterpart is Concordia.

• Her symbol is the Golden Apple of Discord

• her mother is said to be Nyx (Alone)
