Before Ruby Daly joined the League and became Medusa, there was Eris. Eris was the greek goodness of chaos and would fight alongside Ares, she was merciless, the perfect killer. Eris's real name was Elenore Calcutt, but you can call me Eerie. The League found me in a lab in DC after what were experiments that supposedly went "horribly wrong," I didn't know what that meant until two days later when I accidentally set a guard on fire. My abilities meant that I quickly became the most deadly and most feared killer for the League, this, unfortunately, meant I would become partners with one Cole Stewart. Everyone called him Ares but I liked to call him 'massive pain in my ass.' Nonetheless, we were the perfect team, efficiently and brutally gathering info and eliminating any threats, until that one day. That day changed...everything.

"You're... not afraid?" His voice was barely a peep, shy gaze half-turning away but still watching him out of the corner of his eye. His hand instinctively reached for the pendant at his chest, tips of his finger grazing the crystal and ready to grasp it, somewhat afraid of the answer that would come next. "Why would I be afraid? You're like the coolest person I've met so far! Plus-" He poked his side, and George squeaked, jumping back from the ticklish sensation. "You're so scrawny and small. I'd never be afraid of you!"
