In the ''[[World of Greyhawk]]'' [[campaign setting]] for the ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]'' [[role-playing game]], '''Myhriss''' is the [[Flan (Greyhawk)|Flan]] goddess of love, romance, and beauty. Her symbol is the lovebird.

==Description==
Myhriss is shown as a Flan woman just reaching adulthood, a garland of flowers in her hair. She has two aspects, a dark-haired, intimidating woman wielding a whip and a golden-haired, gentler woman wielding a shortbow.

==Relationships==
Myhriss appreciates [[Wee Jas]] for her attractive features, though Wee Jas jealously dislikes Myhriss for her claim over love and beauty. Myhriss is friendly and affectionate toward all benign gods, but avoids those who are hideous, crude, or hateful{{Who|date=October 2009}}.

==Realm==
Myhriss dwells within or on the shores of the River Amiel in Thalasia, the fourth layer of [[Elysium (Dungeons & Dragons)|Elysium]].

==Dogma==
Love, Myhriss claims, can cure all the ills of the world. She urges that love and beauty be protected and celebrated wherever it is found.

==Worshippers==
==Clergy==
Clerics of Myhriss are starry-eyed and always looking for signs of love and beauty in the people and places around them. They bless young lovers, perform marriages ceremonies, create works of art, and travel to see beautiful people and fantastic sights{{Citation needed|date=October 2007}}. Some are diplomats, while some are crusaders against hate and ugliness. Myhriss' favored weapons are the shortbow and the whip.
