Hell Hath No Fury: An Erinyes Variant (5e)
According the Monster Manual ¸ the Erinyes are fiends who "bring swift death to creatures that have wronged their masters or defied the edicts of Asmodeus." But according to Greek Mythology¸ they were quite different. The Erinyes¸ or Furies¸ were avenging spirits of justice and servants of Zeus. Some referred to them as the Eumenides¸ or "kindly ones¸" to avoid offending such powerful deities. They were known as the ?????a? ?ea?¸ or "infernal goddesses¸" effectively putting one foot in heaven and one in hell. In this variant¸ the Erinyes of D&D 5e are brought closer to the Erinyes of ancient Greece.
