Discordia

[lunarriviera]

Just bc I've noticed a couple of people missing this: Uma Thurman's character is named Discord because Discordia was a Roman goddess, based on the goddess Eris (Ἔρις) in classical Greek mythology, whose name is translated as "discord" or "strife." Eris is in the Iliad, among other texts, causing problems; she was Ares's sister (the god of war) and she's the one who made Aphrodite, Athena, and Hera get into their slapfight over who's the prettiest, thereby setting off the Trojan War. I guess the implication is that since she's older than Andromache, possibly the attic Greeks assumed she was a god?

Anyway! just in case anyone thought she was named after a gaming/chat program lol, or just for disharmony in general—

LOW POLY ZOE MODEL!!!!

I am SO proud of this and I'm not sure how I pulled it off actually.

(Please reblog or comment if you'd like it would make me so happy!!!)

Shockingly enough texturing was the easiest part for me... I also enjoyed UV unwrapping weirdly enough I could do it all day.

I'll probably never do rigging again though. Don't ask.

Though her eyes are parented to an armature so I can move them around!

Like I mentioned any thoughts you have are appreciated!! I would love to do the rest of the Record Deal trio in this style eventually....

Happy pride month cuz you gay or whatever

(Colt reader intended below but gn counts still)

Bubble berry playing with hoove made figurines of you and him. Making them kiss everytime he does or at least ending his stories with you two kissing. As shameless as he is, he is embarrassed if you ever found out about this.

Butterscotch nervously inviting you out to a picnic with his animals there as support, trying to guide him into wooing you. Everytime they offer something bold, he would freeze up instead of actually doing it. When you ask him what's wrong gently knowing his nature, he's so red that his wings are twitching to cover him whole.

Equal! Stellar Gleam feeling something burn in his heart when you came with the mane 6 on their adventure at his town. He unconsciously tried to make his town sound better in a sad attempt to at least impress you a little bit. Reformed! Stellar Gleam would formally apologise to you and instead focus on better ways to drop hints of his interests in you.

(Mare reader intended here but gn still works) Discordia is like an angry hissy cat when Butterscotch first introduced you to her. Over time with patience from you, she does came to love your presence. There are even times where only the of two have moments together without Butterscotch. She'd even curled up around you while having juicy gossips.

THE TRIO!!!!

[otherworldmythology]

Eris - Ἔρις

Daughter of Nyx and personification of strife and discord. She delights in the bloodshed of the battlefield, one of the many gods that accompany Ares into the fray. As the other gods leave the remnants of battles she remains, dancing in the dust and downed bodies. Her most notable myth involves the wedding of Peleus and Thetis, which she was not invited to. As a result she tosses a golden apple into the crowd, sometimes with the phrase "τῇ καλλίστῃ" or "to the fairest" written upon it, inciting the goddesses Athena, Aphrodite, and Hera to fight over it. By the judgement of Paris of Troy, Aphrodite is the winner, causing him to take the beautiful Helen of Troy from her husband and start the Trojan War. She appears in other small myths by some writers such as leading Typhon into battle during the Titanomachy or being seen by Heracles as a giant apple. The Romans wrote of her, notably Virgil and Hyginus, as the goddess Discordia. By these later authors she becomes used as a maddening symbol of political unrest and strife rather than strictly a goddess. In the modern day she is patron of the parody religion Discordianism.

Pantheon: Greek, Roman

Domain or Function: Rouses men to continue fighting and causes them to quarrel with one another, and in later sources is a symbol of political strife as well.

Alternate Names: In Rome she was known as Discordia. Is often called Strife.

Character Traits: She enjoys battles and specifically does not pick a side, for she wants the battle to rage on forever. She is sometimes said to dance around the battlefield.

Visual Traits: In art she is shown as a wiry woman with black hair, sometimes winged, and often wielding the golden apple of discord. Later authors depicted her as a gaunt woman with serpents in her hair, carrying a torch and bellows to fan the flames, literally.

Symbolism: Golden apple of discord, torch, snakes, bellows.
