History

Erynys was created out of Elektra's dark essence and thoughts through a ritual performed by the Snakeroot, an organization associated with the Hand. As a result, she knew each of Elektra's own moves and carried the same memories, but was more mercilessly violent and hateful. The Snakeroot used her to hunt down Daredevil and destroy him, unaware that the true Elektra had returned. In a battle between the two, Erynys was fatally wounded and reabsorbed back into Elektra, making her "whole" again.[1]
