Apophis (Egyptian Mythology)

## **Summary**

**Apophis**, also known as **Apep** or **Apepi**, is a godhead and primordial entity in Egyptian Mythology, the primary opponent of Ra and Amun the Sun Gods and a snake deity that tries to kill Ra and shroud all worlds in darkness, which would allow him to rule over all worlds and gods. Apophis is usually presented as and considered the main antagonist of the Egyptian Mythology; despite this, in some variations, he is painted as a more tragic character, as he was formerly the Sun God before Ra overthrew him to rule over creation himself. This actually implies that Apophis isn't truly evil, but just tries to re-attain the rightful position Ra forced him out of.

Apophis lives from within the Underworld, lurking just below the horizon. Once Ra would pass by to drive the Sun across the sky, Apophis would usually engage in combat with Ra, and after a long fight that the Sun God was losing, be defeated with assistance with Seth, only to be reformed every time.

**Powers and Abilities:** Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Regeneration (Mid-Godly; while it does take a day for him to heal, Apophis can regenerate from practically everything no matter how overkill his downfall was; it is not possible to permanently kill Apophis, he can only be temporarily halted), Immortality (Types 1, 3, 4 and 9; operates from below the horizon), Abstract Existence, Reality Warping, Chaos Manipulation, Dark Magic, Body Control, Elasticity, Mind Control, Flight, Darkness Manipulation, Electricity Manipulation, Weather Manipulation, Sand Manipulation, Earth Manipulation, Size Manipulation, Shapeshifting (Into a sphere of malevolence), Water Manipulation (Able to make the waters of the Underworld flow over Ra's boat), Vibration Manipulation, Soul Manipulation, Enhanced Senses, Resurrection (Can also resurrect himself after death, making it very hard to put him down), Destruction, Existence Erasure, Death Manipulation, Poison Manipulation, Light Manipulation and the ability to consume and expel the Sun

**Attack Potency:** At least **Universe level+** (His roar can shake and rumble the entire underworld which is a full-fledged dimension of its own. Is a genuine, serious threat to Ra, who requires assistance to defeat him - Ra is already superior to Nut who is both infinite and the universe itself. Considered the only one in the world to be all-powerful along with Amun and is the opposite and equal to Ma'at) to **Multi-Universe level** (Attacks above the Earth from below the horizon and within the Underworld, stretching into another dimension. There are multiple worlds in Egyptian Mythology and Amun is above them all, having spawned Ra who created them - Apophis is a highly potent threat to Ra and equal to Amun as he is also all-powerful. Stated to be a threat to the worlds of the Egyptian Mythology. His occasional defeat of Ra would plunge all worlds in darkness and lustlessness and eventually revert creation to a realm of primordial waters, not to mention he would dominate and rule over all gods), possibly **Multiverse level** (stated to be one of the only to be all-mighty along with Amun. This would mean they should be equal, and Amun, as King of the Gods, dwarfs everything else in the Egyptian Mythology's interpretation of existence, including several **2-C** gods)
