Eris is the Greek goddess of strife and Discordian goddess of chaos, her name being translated into Latin as Discordia. Her Greek opposite is Harmonia, whose Latin counterpart is Concordia. Eris, the solar system's largest known dwarf planet, is named after the goddess.

The Principia Discordia states that her parents may be as described in Greek legend, or that she may be the daughter of Void. She is the Goddess of Disorder and Being, whereas her sister Aneris (called the equivalent of Harmonia by the Mythics of Harmonia) is the goddess of Order and Non-Being. Their brother is Spirituality.

Eris appears on the Cartoon Network show "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy" as a rival of Mandy, Grim, and Billy, voiced by Rachael MacFarlane. In the episode Complete and Utter Chaos, she causes chaos to grip Grim, Billy, and Mandy by giving them "The Golden Apple of Chaos and Discord," a more elaborate title for the mythological Apple of Discord. She is drawn to resemble pop star Madonna. See Eris (Billy and Mandy) for more information about the TV version. Image:

She also appears as the antagonist in the film Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas.

The classic fairy tale Sleeping Beauty is partly inspired by Eris's role in the wedding of Peleus and Thetis. Like Eris, a malevolent fairy curses a princess after failing to be invited to the princess's christening.

Eris also appears in Wonder Woman as one of her major antagonists during George Perez's tenure on the title. She clashed with Wonder Woman on several occasions until she was killed by the Son of Vulcan during the "War of The Gods". She resurfaced years later as part of a plot engineered by her brothers, Phobos and Deimos to merge Gotham City with the Areopagus, Ares' throne capital, possessing Poison Ivy (her brothers possessed Joker and Scarecrow - the local embodiments of madness and fear). They were later defeated by the combined efforts of Wonder Woman, Batman, Robin, Troia, Wonder Girl, Nightwing, Artemis, and the Huntress-.

The Greek goddess Eris replaced into the personification of discord or strife. She seems in Hesiod's Theogony by way of fact the daughter of Nyx (night). Eris performed an important section in Greek mythology. between the main severe legends wherein she is in touch starts with a marriage - the marriage of Peleus and Thetis, to be precise. curiously, somebody forgot to ask the goddess of discord to the festivities. That replaced into the 1st mistake in an prolonged chain of disastrous activities. For Eris merely confirmed up on the marriage besides, with mayhem on her concepts. while she arrived, the goddess tossed a golden apple into the gang of properly huge-unfold faces. This tempting apple replaced into tagged with the word "to the fairest". Get extra counsel on the link I surely have located under.

ERIS as the Goddess of marriage? Not hardly.

She's the Goddess of Chaos.

What exactly are you looking for? I asume it's not just any and all mythology, but a little more specific than that.

nope, Eris is Greek for Strife, she was associated with Ares the God of War. The Romans called her Discord or Discordia.

Hera/Juno-was the Goddess of Marriage
Hestia/Vesta was the Goddess of the Hearth
