History

Apollo is known for adventures and escapades seen and passed on by man through the "Greek myths", But from time to time can still be found to have involvement on earth.

Two thousand years ago, at Mt. Gaurus home of the Temple of Apollo and Artemis and a "Nexus of all Possible Realities", Apollo made Sybylla their Oracle. When her mortal life ended, Apollo offered her a place in Olympus, she declined asking for her spirit to stay in the temple and watch over the Sibylline sisterhood. Centuries later, leader of the sisterhood Thaleia was driven insane and killed herself, which broke up the Sibylline sisterhood. Apollo sealed Thaleia's soul within her body and placed it into suspended animation, so that Thalia one day might redeem herself. Sibylla with the help of Dr. Strange, Clea, and Thaleia sealed the portal at Apollo's Temple averting the Black Oracle and keeping the Other worldly Roman Sorcerer Xennus from conquering Earth 616. Thaleia's spirit redeemed was sent to Apollo.

Modern Times:

Zeus sent Apollo and Daphne back to Earth under the aliases of "Renee Andre" and "Rona Belladonna" to break up Meg Saunders and her boyfriend so that Venus would be forced to return to Olympus, Venus kept them together and earned Zeus's approval.
