Apollo is one of the Lords of Kobol worshipped by modern-day Colonials.
Apollo is the son of Zeus, Lord of Kobol, and regarded in Colonial religion as the god of the hunt and the god of healing. In this, his role somewhat mirrors that of Apollo of the Olympian pantheon of ancient Greece, though in Greek mythology Apollo's twin sister Artemis is the god the the hunt.
Within Colonial religion, an artifact known as the Arrow of Apollo appears named for this diety.
