POWER SELECTION

MYTH POWERS
Yes, all of them.

GAME POWERS
Ultimately, at full power, Apollo would have near-godlike power restored, commanding his domains:

• The sun
• Medicine (both curing and inflicting injury & disease)
• The Arts
• Knowledge, Truth & Prophecy (not sure how this would manifest in-game, prophecy especially would be difficult)

Plus: Generalized magic that greek gods have, & being able to take on his godly form (mortals can't behold it without being vaporized)

At the start, Apollo could have a weak version of his power from a few of those domains: Minor healing, making himself glow, inflict burns if anyone tries to grapple him, maybe curse someone to speak only in verse for a few minutes, and then slowly start to gain more back at Climactic Moments as he needs them.

ABILITIES

• Poetry
• Archery
• Singing
• Ability to play any musical instrument
• Dance
• Medicine
• Charisma

ADDITIONAL INFO
He'll be bringing with him his golden longbow, and a quiver that never runs out of arrows.

If there's already an Apollo that's canon to the setting (not necessarily Guardians-specific, but just part of the setting you created) I would be interested in exploring the resulting existential crisis! If he is ever put out of commission, Apollo is an experienced chariot driver

PERSONALITY

Apollo's godly domains span a wide breadth of things: The sun, archery, music, poetry, knowledge... ultimately, Apollo is a god of Civilization, and the wonderful things to celebrate about it. This is reflected strongly in his personality: He loves people. He loves society. He wants to see everyone around him be the best version of themselves they can be.

Of course, for thousands of years, his pro-humanity mindset has been at odds with the attitude of the other Olympians. He spent almost five millennia layering mask upon mask to live up to the expectations of his family (read: Zeus). There is an understanding among the gods that they are to be distant and detached from the mortals, and Apollo spent millennia trying to maintain that same detachment. He often acted airheaded, arrogant and self-centered, and as he became more and more detached from humanity, that arrogance became more and more ingrained.

However, as of recent events (spending six months as a mortal on a deadly quest) Apollo's had those masks violently torn away, leaving him exposed and vulnerable for the first time in millennia. He's reconnected with his ancient love of humanity, and has resolved to reach out and help them more directly, Zeus' decrees be damned. Apollo helps where he can, and when he can't, he aims to inspire the people around him the way he inspires works of art.

Apollo feels all of his emotions intensely. When he loves, he loves with all of his heart; When he's sad, the misery is agonizing. He is unapologetically dramatic and often expresses what he's feeling through song and poetry. He's been able to reel this in as of late, and while he hasn't necessarily stopped feeling as hard as he does, he can now prioritize better and stay more focused on the tasks at hand.
