Eris the Echidna

Eris is an echidna that hails from the Nocturnus clan. While isolated from her people currently, she couldn’t care any less about them. All that matters to her is her personal curiosity about the secrets of the world, which she will find the answers to by any means necessary.

Concept and Creation
Eris is actually not a very new character. This one is a reboot from a year or two ago, in which she was made when I realized I had no villains that posed a threat to multiple characters, and also that I’ve never written a female villain before. So bam, Eris came up as an evil parallel to River but, her motives were really, really weak, mostly non-existant. And I quickly lost focus.

But when rebuilding and rewriting characters, I ran into the same problem that I had no villains. But who better to bring back than Eris! Although instead she has a slight redesign and better motives.

Personality
Eris is calm, cool, and collected 99.99% of the time. It is near impossible to see her show rage, sadness, or fear. They’re almost non-existent to her. She chooses to be polite and friendly to most, and she is the most kind to those who are useful to her. She knows how to weave her words into the hearts of others, tell them what they want to hear, and befriend them with ease.

But Eris has a deep desire, which is her insatiable curiosity. She looks down upon ethics and petty morality. To her, there is no limit to what should be left unknown. Since this is unacceptable in the scientific community, she has conducted her own experiements in her own laboratory that only she has access to. She gathers all sorts of things, minerals, plants, animals, people, and lets herself do whatever she wants and records the results. She doesn’t gain sadistic pleasure from hurting things, but she does enjoy when something interesting happens.

Either way, Eris should be avoided at all costs, lest she becomes curious about you.

Abilities
Chaos Manipulation - Eris is imbued with chaos energy and as a result can manipulate the energy itself wherever it may be present. She cannot use some abilities (such as chaos control or spear), however she can affect the outcomes of others using them.

Intelligence - Eris is very well educated, particularly in the sciences. However she has exceptional knowledge in mathematics and psychology as well.

Weaknesses
Chaos Dependence - While Eris is not tied directly to the chaos emeralds, her health can be effected when something alters the chaos energy inside of her. She can die if her own energy is removed from her body.

Trivia

 * Before you ask, yes, her outfit is ripped off of the vocaloid Luka. But with adjustments.
 * Her name, of course, is a reference to Eris, the greek goddess of discord.
 * She has studied some alchemy before, but has disregarded the practice as fiction. Although she would like to produce some of alchemical materials through modern science sometime.
