Eris was the Greek goddess of strife and discord. Her Roman equivalent was Discordia, which means the same. Eris's Greek opposite is Harmonia, whose Roman counterpart is Concordia, though she is also described as opposing Nike, counterpart of the Roman Victoria. Homer equated her with the war-goddess Enyo, whose Roman counterpart is Bellona. The dwarf planet Eris is named after the goddess.

She was described as daughter of Nyx or of Hera & Zeus. Her children were Dysnomia, Ponos, Atë, Lethe, Limos, Algos, Hysminai, Makhai, Phonoi, Androktasiai, Neikea, Amphilogiai, Horkos, Pseudea, Logoi, and Enyalius.

If her parents where Zeus & Hera, her siblings included Ares, Enyo, Eileithyia, Hephaestus , and Hebe. If her parent was Nyx, her siblings would include Aether, Hemera, Hypnos, Thanatos, Clotho, Lakhesis, Atropos, the Keres, the Hesperides, Apate, Geras, Dolos, Nemesis, Morpheus, Phobetor, Phantasos and Daimones.

The most famous tale of Eris recounts her initiating the Trojan War by causing the Judgement of Paris. The goddesses Hera, Athena and Aphrodite had been invited along with the rest of Olympus to the forced wedding of Peleus and Thetis, who would become the parents of Achilles, but Eris had been snubbed because of her trouble making inclinations.

She therefore tossed into the party the Apple of Discord, a golden apple – "For the most beautiful one", or "To the Fairest One" – provoking the goddesses to begin quarreling about the appropriate recipient. The hapless Paris, Prince of Troy, was appointed to select the fairest by Zeus. The goddesses stripped naked to try to win Paris's decision, and also attempted to bribe him. Hera offered political power, while Athena promised infinite wisdom. But Aphrodite tempted him with the most beautiful woman in the world: Helen, wife of Menelaus of Sparta, and Paris chose to award the apple to Aphrodite, thereby dooming his city, which was destroyed in the war that ensued.

Zeus ordered his daughter, Diana the Huntress, to travel Mount Olympus and protect Greece from the Nazis. She was assisted by her fellow Greek/Roman deities such as Apollo, Hercules, Mercury, and Eris called by her Roman name Discordia.
