Apollo

Apollo (アポロ, Aporo) is an artificial esper and an agent of the psychic research organization Tsukuyomi.

Appearance
Apollo is a man of average height and build. He has pale hair, large eyes and very small pupils. His most notable facial feature is the cross pattern running along his forehead horizontally.

He wears white gloves, dark dress shoes/pants, a belt, and a plain tie on his outer space colored dress shirt, which was revealed after his coat came off. When first introduced, Apollo wore a white mask with a large smile and a pattern similar to his forehead.

Personality
Apollo is a cunning and calculated antagonist with a collected demeanor, not being easily thrown off. He is capable of both thinking ahead, and making quick-witted, optimal decisions on the fly. An example being when he destroyed the cameras and released demon level monsters into a basement he locked everyone in to avoid suspicion as to why his captives would have disappeared.

He has a superiority complex over natural espers and believes that they should be eradicated. However, while arrogant and willing to test his raw power during a fight, Apollo is a realist who knows his limits. If he feels outmatched, he will choose to plan beforehand, and is not above using underhanded tactics to punch above his weight. He is also very cruel, does not seem to care much about almost anybody else's wellbeing, and will readily attack or harm others to achieve his goals.

History
Not much is known about Apollo's history, however, while fighting him, Tatsumaki admits that artificial espers have improved. This suggests that Apollo had been strengthened over time, possibly including his resistance against the poison that should have killed him instantly.

Psychic Sisters Arc
Apollo arrives at the Hero Association headquarters and is escorted by some staff to visit Psykos within her cell. When mentioning his affiliation with Tsukuyomi, Psykos wakes up and abruptly telekinetically attacks Apollo. Apollo fends off the attack with his own power and prepares to acquire Psykos and leave. Soon, Fubuki, Saitama, and the Blizzard Group arrive with Fubuki telling everyone that Tatsumaki will soon arrive and try to kill Psykos. Immediately afterward, Tatsumaki shows up and attempts to drop rubble on Psykos, but Fubuki and Apollo protect her. Tatsumaki sends Apollo flying into the wall, telling him to get lost. It turns out that Fubuki and Tatsumaki knew that the Tsukuyomi were going after Psykos and hatched a plan to prevent this. Being stronger than she thought, Apollo soon gets back up and destroys the cameras to prevent others from knowing what is going on. The two of them clash and in the process Saitama falls underground.

Apollo realizes he is fighting a losing battle and decides to telekinetically activate a sleeping pill that Fubuki took by accident, stating that there was another one with deadly poison inside. With this, Apollo forces Tatsumaki's hand and gets her to stop resisting. Apollo mocks Tatsumaki for not seeing this coming as he twists her spine and crumples her into a ball.

Apollo releases Demon-level monsters that were locked in the floor below and explains that people wouldn't question their disappearance thinking Tatsumaki caused the release during her rampage and the monsters ate all of them.

Apollo's partner, a spy in the Blizzard Group, reveals himself, flying up to meet with Apollo as they all attempt to slip away with the psychic sisters and Psykos. Infuriated, multiple Fubuki Group members attack Apollo but he dispatches them easily. The monsters are about to arrive when suddenly to everyone's surprise Saitama jumps out among a large amount of monster guts having killed them all. During this time, Tatsumaki found a way to counter Apollo's strategy and extract the poison in the form of a very small needle. The needle flies out and pierces both of Apollo's hands going into his eye as he fails to block it. Before capturing him in a large sphere made of rubble, Tatsumaki admits she is surprised Apollo didn't die instantly and says she is going to wring all he knows about Tsukuyomi out of him. Apollo's partner is also knocked out while trying to escape.

While Tatsumaki throws a fit and goes outside to fight with Saitama, Apollo and his partner tunnel out of the basement and into the parking lot without anyone noticing until later. They then forcefully escape by car. As his partner drives the car, Apollo uses some type of syringe or EpiPen to heal himself and swears to take revenge on Tatsumaki.
