The goddess of misunderstandings. Described as a "trouble-maker". A relative of [[Hoki]], or his female archetype? Or just Hoki in drag, doing the moonlighting thing in order to garner more believers?

The computer game ''[[Discworld Noir]]'' tells a story that involves Errata, and she has a pirest called [[Malaclypse]] in a corner of the [[Temple of Small Gods]].

==Annotation==

The Greek goddess '''Eris''' is the patroness of chaos and discord. (The Romans called her ''Discordia''). "Errata" sounds like a conflation of both names. Eris' greatest achievement was that business with the Golden Apple inscribed "Kallisti" - to the Fairest One - that got the gods of Olympus fighting among themselves, as of course all [[Gods]] have infinite egos and all consider themself to be fairest. Eventually the Olympian gods decided to pass this hot potato to a mortal, who was plucked from obscurity to decide which Goddess was fairest and who had title to the Golden Apple. The judgement of Paris led directly to the Trojan War and ten years of destruction, with Eris snggering in the background. It is clear that Eris is a [[Trickster|trickster-Goddess]]....

Errata is also the plural of '''erratum''', which is an error in writing or printing.

Malaclypse is also a priest of Eris in Robert Anton Wilson's '''Illuminatus!''' trilogy of novels, where the Goddess is a central character. Another crossover between Discworld and Wilson's manic fantasy?
