Oh and he doubles as a rockstar
Very cool possible interactions with Nitro and Nightweaver. You can't actually be Apollo or a god, but you can certainly be themed that way.

Could he have a divine origin then, possibly some crazy orphan childfell out of a crib from Olympia
Standard 2nd Edition Character?
Well, I do not want player backgrounds to establish the truth or falsehood of religions, since for world-building reasons it has to be the case that there are not conclusive proof about these things. You could be related to some previous metahuman or other funky creature with powers, or some combination of them. Or maybe he's a mutant, or was genetically engineered for these powers, or an alien...there are all kinds of ways, both coincidental and intentional, both that I just mentioned or otherwise, for him to wind up with powers like Apollo.
He also can just not know his origon, and we'll either solidify it later, or not.
It's PL 11, 165 pp.
Relevant character creation stuff from Matt's first post:
4. Banned Powers: Time Control and travel, Nemesis, the Uncontrolled flaw on most powers (allowed on a case-by-case basis. I allow uncontrolled visions and the like)
5. Equipment: If it is something that you would have had, and that you will use, buy it. That being said, once your characters join the organization (we will be picking up from the end of that intro), you will have access to a certain amount of equipment each adventure, but you might not be able to choose it and usually will not be able to have any given piece of equipment at all times.
6. House Rule: Fractions. You can buy fractional ranks of ranked feats that grant benefits per rank. For instance, you can take 1.5 ranks of attack specialization (pointy stick) to get +3 to attacks with a pointy stick. You also can get skills that do not total to a multiple of four.
7. If you have access to the Mastermind's Manual, you may take Skill Challenge feats.

He is sort of superficial
So does his blast take the form of a bow and arrow made of light? Like some of these guys maybe?
