About Eriss
Eriss is a name of Greek origin, meaning "goddess of discord." It's a playful twist on the name Eris, a figure in Greek mythology who personifies pure contention and was infamous for causing trouble. The legendary goddess Eris was banished to the underworld due to her many misdemeanors and eventually became known as a catalyst for conflict. In ancient tales, she instigated the Trojan War after creating discord between Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite, leading to chaos and the eventual battle that shaped much of Greek history. While some may prefer peace in life, Eriss embodies a mischievous spirit; a testament to playful mischief and chaos.
