Apollo
The Greek god of prophecy, music, healing, plague, archery, and ordered brilliance.
Legend File
Apollo is a god of bright order with a dangerous edge. At Delphi he speaks through oracle, in music he measures harmony, and in healing he stands close to the plague arrows he can also send. His myths often turn radiance into discipline: beauty, prophecy, medicine, and punishment all require exactness.
Source Framing
Ancient Greek and Greco-Roman religion around Apollo as a many-functioned god: Delphi and Delos cult centers, prophecy, music and poetry, archery, healing and plague, purification, and later solar associations.
