[/ul]the body lunges forward : APPEARANCE

[/u] Olympian/Grecian.
body type: Her skin is quite light. Her skin is of a porcelain color. Her lips are a dull dark red color.
hair: Her hair has that wind swept look to it except that more of it falls forward more towards to her face. It can be of different color but mostly it’s dark black. Some splits over her shoulders so that some falls forward and the rest back; her hair is very long going down to her knees.
eyes: Her eyes change slightly depending of her mood going from dark blue to green, very dark black and even sometimes red.
distinguishing physical features:Even if the Goddess knows how to manipulate a sword on her own she has very long black-colored nails.
face claim: Meighan Desmond.
clothing style: What is better than Leather for a Warrior Goddess like Eris? Nothing. Her outfit is made entirely of black Leather and small spikes of metal all over the costume. To add more feminism into her style she didn’t forget to wear skirt and a deep décolleté.
overall: Pride. Wrath. Greed. Envy. Lust. Sloth. Gluttony. She is all this.
No words to describe the wonderful Goddess and her appearance. She isn’t tall and her beauty cannot be compared with Aphrodite’s yet no man can resist while she is around. One sad detail can be added to her look; a scar on her face—on the right cheek. She received this scar while a combat with her lover Ares due to yet undefined reason. The scar was made with the blade of Hephaestus.

overall history:

The name was Eris. The Grecian Goddess of Havoc and Retribution. She was often represented specifically as the daimon of the strife of war, who haunted the battlefield and delighted in human bloodshed. Because of Eris' disagreeable nature she was the only goddess not to be invited to the wedding of Peleus and Thetis. When she turned up anyway, she was refused admittance and, in a rage, threw a golden apple amongst the goddesses inscribed "To the fairest." Three goddesses laid claim it, and in their rivalry brought about the events which led to the Trojan War. Discordia was closely identified with the war-goddess Enyo. Indeed Homer uses the names interchangeably. Her Roman name was Discordia.
Discordia, the goddess who calls forth war and discord. According to the Iliad, she wanders about, at first small and insignificant, but she soon raises her head up to heaven. She is the friend and lover of Ares, and with him she delights in the tumult of war, increasing the moaning of men. She is insatiable in her desire for bloodshed, and after all the other gods have withdrawn from the battle-field, she still remains rejoicing over the havoc that has been made. According to Hesiod, she was a daughter of Night, and the poet describes her as the mother of a variety of allegorical beings, which are the causes or representatives of man's misfortunes. It was Eris who threw the apple into the assembly of the gods, the cause of so much suffering and war. Virgil introduces Discordia as a being similar to the Homeric Eris; for Discordia appears in company with Mars, Bellona, and the Furies, and Virgil is evidently imitating Homer.

WRITING SAMPLE

A fine red line started to draw down her soft light golden skin as the hit were made by the Roman warrior. Making a quiet large smile of pleasure and satisfaction appear on the corners of her lips Eris just jumped slowly away and shook her head making her black hair slowly balance in the wind. Still keeping the famous red-hilted sword in her hand; the girl could feel the wet in between her fingers and in the back of her neck—and it wasn’t due to the fear to fight the Roman but it was all about the patience the Olympian had before ripping Dayania’s heart from her sweet and soon bleeding chest.

A second later after admiring the blood on the Girl’s mouth, her eyes and her growing rage Discordia made a really Ares-ish alike move by cocking her head to one side and making a loud ‘hmm’ noise come out of her mouth in a questioning and quiet sarcastic tone; after what her right foot moved slightly ahead and very quickly Eris’s sword flew in the air once again as it did a few seconds before. Switching feet, turning around, clashing the metallic blades one against another and trying to make bleed her adversary as often as she could the Nyx’s Daughter grabbed her weapon with her both hands and with a hysteric voice cried out all the rage she had inside of her.

Luckily Dayania had the skills to defend herself against a warrior of Discord’s level and could sense the next attacks, it was as if she knew exactly all the Goddess’s next moves; the Girl bended and then jumped after what she rolled behind her enemy as this one raised her sword when not even a second would take her to smash Dayania’s head off.

Turning quickly around the red-haired girl only nodded her head in approvement and hurried towards Dayania with her sword ahead which slashed again against the other one but didn’t move away making the Roman ran into the tree what was just behind her. Eris’s feet kept moving ahead what made her push the Warrior against the tree and approach her. They were close, so close that only the swords between them were making a difference; Eris’s mind was full with such rage that she didn’t even feel the blood what was running down her breasts due to her own sword being slightly stuck into her skin.

Such an angered pit-bull she was showing her bloody teeth and yet greening with an enjoyable sarcasm. She hadn’t said a word since the fight began what was quiet strange for the young Grecian since she always liked to chit-chat; yet that was it, Dayania could be proud. Eyes in the eyes; it was a like red death; Eris watched her for maybe one second after what she yelled with all the strength she had. “Fight me! FIGHT ME!”
