Summary
Apophis, also known as Apepi or simply Apep, is a godhead and primordial entity in Egyptian Mythology, the primary opponent of Ra and Amun the Sun Gods and a snake deity that tries to kill Ra and shroud all worlds in darkness, which would allow him to rule over all worlds and gods. Apophis is usually presented as and considered the main antagonist of the Egyptian Mythology.

Apophis lives from within the Underworld, lurking just below the horizon. Once Ra would pass by to drive the Sun across the sky, Apophis would usually engage in combat with Ra, and after a long fight that the Sun God was losing, be defeated with assistance with Seth, only to be reformed every time.
