APATE • FRAUD/DECEPTION••• NAME ,, apate.
••• SPECIES ,, deity of fraud & deception.
••• ALLEGIANCE ,, up to you!
••• RELATIONSHIP ,, whether it's well-known or not, this chickadee just so happens to be dolos' twin sister. straying from the common myths, the two were not raised together--in fact, it kind of seemed more like they were separated. honestly, this is completely open to play around with, as dolos was "raised" in hypnos' care, until departing to join up with pompodis' crew, the psilloi.
that being, apate could have been doing her own thing, maybe someone got to her? scrambled her marbles a little? amnesia? want her having screwed with kro's crew--throw in some potential drama for dolos and the psilloi? regardless, i do think it would be interesting for the two to join back together--regardless of the circumstances. and best believe--apate will most certainly be treated like a little sister, twin or not--meaning, be prepared for dolos to dish out the bitchy insults right back at her. obviously, that goes double for any bullshit pranks or stunts attempted to pull. on the other hand, despite likely not admitting to it, i could very much see dolos going big-bro mode if anyone were to fuck with her, y'know? kinda like that's reserved for him, maybe even his boys? little ganging up on the sweet little savage bit--beauty.
••• GENERAL INFORMATION ,, to clear up any potential confusion--as these two can be kind of mixed up when it comes to their domains and abilities. apate is considered the goddess of fraud and deception. often described as being very beautiful in appearance, but also very mischievous. apate was viewed as kind of a minor goddess who would inhabit the homes of those who were dishonest or deceitful, causing them to engage in further deception and trickery.
as for dolos, on the other hand, he is considered to be the god of trickery and cunning. unlike his twins sister, apate--who is more associated with verbal lies and deception, dolos is known for his ability to manipulate people and events to his advantage. he was often depicted as a sly and cunning entity, who would use his powers to outsmart others in order to achieve his own self-interested goals.
so, while they share similarities in terms of their abilities and whatnot, they are also so vastly different. however, this might be worth noting, given how chaotic and spontaneous these dudes be, dolos especially--despite having been spent their lives apart, if apate and dolos were to use their abilities together, it could be exceedingly dangerous as it would result in a very potent form of deceit and deception. apate's powers of verbal deception and dolos' abilities to manipulate events and people could create a very convincing and elaborate web of lies and illusions. this could also, high-risk, lead to catastrophic consequences as people could far too easily be misled and tricked into making decisions that could harm themselves or others. it was often portrayed that those who would fall victim to the deities of deceit would also tend to suffer greatly as a result of their actions. therefore, if apate and dolos were to actually work together as a unit, their powers could result in disastrous outcomes for anyone foolish enough to fall prey to their schemes.
