Apollo Delphi

Apollo Delphi is a character portrayed by blkmamba.

## Early Life

Apollo was born in Miami, Florida, which sets her apart from her parents who were both born in Mykonos, Greece. They presumed a life in America would be better for Apollo, yet quickly met the hardships of struggling to keep their head above water. It cost way too much to barely live, and finding work was impossible. Her father, Ajax, ended up in a colossal amount of debt. The burden of disappointing his family was too much to handle, so on October 2nd, 2011, he stuffed his mouth with the end of a revolver and pulled the trigger. Apollo was only 11 years old when her father took his own life, and was left with taking care of her mother who was hanging on by a thread.

Apollo's mother, Leto, could only make ends meet by means of prostitution in downtown Miami. It was the fastest way to make any live-able income. It was always dangerous, and she would constantly be bringing random men back to our beat-down apartment in order to satisfy them sexually. Her mother remained cautious, purposely hiding that same revolver inside the cabinet underneath the kitchen sink. The only friend Apollo managed to make in school was Clementine Martinez, considering they instantly clicked and bonded as if they were meant to take on life together.

Although the struggles continued, it couldn't compare to February 11th, 2018, when Apollo and Clementine went back to the Delphi apartment really late. Deciding to just stay the night, they were walking up the stairs and heard muffled screaming through the thin walls. Apollo's heart dropped to her stomach as they silently entered, whispering harshly to Clementine to go under the kitchen sink and grab the revolver. Clementine moved fast, swiftly retrieving the revolver and handing it over to Apollo. Apollo's mother taught her how to load it, which Apollo did with ease as she gripped it tight and walked slowly towards her mother's room. Quickly opening the door, Apollo aimed the revolver at the man on top of her screaming mother and wasted no time on pulling the trigger, just like her father did nearly 7 years ago.

That night ended with a headache from police sirens and tired eyes from the red and blue lights. Apollo and her mother were distraught, yet Clementine never left her side. High school graduation approached quickly, where Clementine and Apollo decided on skipping the whole college route. Apollo let her mother know she wouldn't have to worry about supporting her anymore, and to focus on following her dream of becoming a renown bartender. The time finally came where Clementine and Apollo would be hitting the road for ***Diamond City***.

## Settling in Diamond City

It was far from a smooth start in Diamond City, where Clementine and Apollo met nothing but unfamiliar faces and many middle fingers by miserable people. They attempted to work together as fuelers but quickly realized they had no clue what they were doing. A man offered to help them get comfortable in the city, and it seemed promising enough for them to both make a new friend. He told them, "*I can show you the fastest way to make money. Go pull out as much money as you can from the bank and I'll take you guys to buy the supplies we need.*" Clementine and Apollo were no strangers to diving into sketchy situations, and assumed illegal activities would be the best route for the life they desired. Under the impression they were going to begin the process of making and selling drugs, they were driven to a gas station. He told them to follow him, and before they knew it, he had a gun to their head. They were both robbed and attempted to put up the best fight they could, yet were left stranded for the police to arrive. Apollo and Clementine were kicked down before they could even stand up.

## Present-Day Diamond City

Everything seemed hopeless until Clementine bought a phone and discovered Twitter. Her excessive tweets and encounters with random strangers led to a job offer by Charles Valentino to strip at the Vanilla Unicorn (VU). Clementine always had Apollo's back and was able to bring her along to work. Apollo knew how bad this could be due to her mother's past experience in this field of work, but she was confident in her abilities now. Apollo quickly became well-versed with everything illegal upon working at the VU. Both Clementine and Apollo proved their loyalty and devotion towards their work and everyone around them at VU, treating them like family. Charles and Kristy Smith both work as an Underboss to the Ricardo Family Mafia, which manages the club. Charles and Kristy work directly in keeping all the strippers safe, including Apollo, Clementine, Ciri Blair, etc. Clementine and Apollo eventually met the Godfather of the Los Santos section of the Ricardo Family Mafia, Jimmy Ricardo. Charles put a good word in and everything has been smooth sailing from that point. Apollo looks forward to contributing everything she can offer to the Ricardo Family Mafia as a Soldati and a stripper at the ripe age of 21 years old. Eventually, she hopes to become well-known for her illegal work and assistance in the success of the Ricardo Family.
