Apollyon, the Suffering was the God of the realm of Suffering, and was one of the Lords of Evil, sundered by Keresis from Sartan, the Malevolent.

History

Apollyon came into existence after the coming of the Morning Star, when the pit Abbadon attempted to consume the Morning Star as it headed toward Sapience. The resulting outburst of energy destroyed almost all life upon Sapience, as well as the creation of both Apollyon, the Malefactor and Aurora, Goddess of Light. Ten years after His birth, Shaitan, the Lord of Evil assaulted Apollyon and absorbed His being, changing His name to Sartan to evade the wrath of Sarapis. This remained the case until 396AF, when the Goddess of Vengeance struck the Lord of Evil and broke the bonds that connected Shaitan with Apollyon once more.

The God Apollyon was slain in battle in 611 AF by Pentharian, God of Valour.

Divine Symbols

The holy symbol of Apollyon was that of the wheel, usually depicted to be broken. He took preference over little within life, however the likes of locusts, wasps, and coyotes were said to hold some meaning.
