Given ten days by the court to find the Book or Proteus would die, Sinbad then travelled to Tartarus on a hunch to try and retrieve the Book from Eris. All the while, knowing that the overtly noble Proteus would undoubtedly volunteer to take Sinbad's place in the execution Proteus' death would plunge the city into a political power vacuum and anarchy, achieving 'glorious chaos'. While Sinbad prepared himself, she then deliberately disguised herself as him while un-stealthily stealing the Book of Peace herself, leaving his dagger at the scene and thereby framing him. In her first meeting and oath with Sinbad, she promised to let him survive his imminent drowning as well as have untold riches, in exchange for him stealing the Book of Peace for her from his former best friend (and future prince of Syracuse) Proteus. She is seen as spiteful, vindictive, wickedly intelligent and passionate when it comes to the prospect of the world potentially crumbling into 'glorious chaos'.
She is only bound by the terms of whatever oaths or promises are agreed with her. Eris represents true malevolence and deviance she has no morals or nobility, which is derived as her being a goddess of pure evil. Olympus and the world is saved and Hercules fully regains his immortal god-status but, he chooses to abandon it and stay mortal, in order to live a life with Megara.Įris is the denizen and proprietor of Tartarus, the Realm of Chaos, and the creator/owner of many godly monsters, including the sea-monster Cetus. In the end, despite Hercules losing his god-strength due to a successful final ploy by Hades, the God of the Underworld is defeated, his plan for domination over gods and man thwarted and the released Titans are put back in their place. He attempts to kill Hercules using various mythological beasts, effectively putting him through the Twelve Labours of myth, but he survives them all, not realizing who is behind them until the end-game. Many years later, Hades discovers that Hercules survived but he only has a short time left until the planets align and his coup with the Titans can be set in motion. The two imps abandoned the child on Earth to die, but he was found by two farmers and raised as their own. The attempted murder by poison was botched by Hades' subordinates, Pain and Panic, as the infant Hercules did not drink the final drop, allowing him to retain some of his god-strength but not his immortality. Hades attempted to kill Hercules, Zeus and Hera's son and future heir to Olympus, following a prophecy by the Fates that described the infant as the only individual capable of stopping him from taking over by freeing and using the imprisoned Titans as his muscle. Also, unlike most villains, Hades is not arrogant, but does have mood swings being comedic and laid-back one minute and then being short-tempered and angry the next. Hades is shown to be jealous of Zeus's position as King of the Gods, and makes long term plans to usurp his brother. Though temperamental, he is a fast-talker, and a shrewd bargainer. As an Olympian God, he is immortal, and specifically has authority over the dead. Hades is normally evil and cynical, and has a serious anger management problem.
While the Hades of Greek mythology was not particularly malevolent, he is made into an evil figure in the Disney film, more equivalent to the devil, where he attempts to steal his brother Zeus' throne as ruler of Mount Olympus.
