One of the more defining features of Apophis, is his inferiority complex.  Having always been told to be someone he wasn't, Apophis was raised to believe that as a male, he was inherently flawed, and inferior to others. He is very sensitive to being compared to others, and doing that can make him fly into a rage.  This makes him reluctant to accept help, as he believes he must achieve his goals on his own.  To Apophis, relying on others leads to stagnation, and one must rely oneself before anyone else.

Another defining feature of his, is Apophis' burning hatred for the Kuja.  Growing up forced to be a girl when he knew he was a boy, and being compared to the other girls, pyschologicall scarred Apophis, and he developed a burning hatred for Amazon Lily and its inhabitants.  He made it his goal to one day return to Amazon Lily, and show them all who he really was.

Another defining feature of his, is Apophis' burning hatred for the Kuja.  Growing up forced to be a girl when he knew he was a boy, and being compared to the other girls caused resentment to stir him, but the resentment turned to hatred when his status as a boy was found out. His mother chose to abandon him on his own, so that she wouldn't be forced to leave, after being forced to choose.  Apophis' ultimate goal, is to someday return to Amazon Lily, solely to watch it burn.
   
 
He dislikes the idea of a "Pirate King", believing that pirates can not, and should not, have a "king".  One Piece for him, while real, is something that should be left alone. This is also attributes to his inferiority complex, as the idea of being subservient to another pains him.  With only a few exceptions, Apophis will never let himself take orders from another, and aspires to always be at least on par with authority with another.

====Dark Syndicate====

Apophis is an associate of the Dark Syndicate, or perhaps more accurately [[Zero]] himself. Occasionally, Apophis will be called on for odd jobs by Zero, such as raiding a city, or supporting an endeavour. However, unlike individuals like Slash or Sauvage who are practically enthralled to Zero, Apophis exercises heavy autonomy. He can and sometimes will refuse Zero's summons, and will only act for Zero when he feels it suits his interests. The reason for Apophis' alliance with Zero is the automaton promised to give the Dread Serpent the means to destroy Amazon Lily.

====Kuja Pirates====

Apophis' hatred for the Kuja is old, and deeply nursed. To him, they are the bane of his existence, and almost his entire goal is getting revenge for them abandoning him for no other reason than he was male. However, while Apophis hates all the Kuja, Hancock particularly infuriates him. Back when Apophis was a child, and known as a girl named "Rose", he was friends with Hancock and her sisters. However, being told that they were constantly better than him in many things caused him to resent them. Apophis views Hancock a representation of everything he hates about the Kuja: arrogant, self-righteous, and ignorant.

Apophis does not think much of the Straw hats, but he acknowledges their skill in combat, and respects their audacity and courage.  However, his skepticism about their being a Pirate King brought him to a brief conflict with Luffy.
 
====Yonkou====
 
Generally speaking, Apophis avoids the Yonkou, and prefers to keep out of conflict with them.  However, he does not consider himself subservient, or allied with any of them, and has opposed them regularly.  Apophis was attempted to be recruited by Whitebeard to rescue Ace, but like his fellow Titans, Apophis refused, not wanting to have to take orders from Whitebeard.

While Apophis hates all the Kuja, Hancock particularly infuriates him.  Back when Apophis was a child, and known as a girl named "Rose", he knew Hancock and her sisters.  There, Apophis was repeatedly compared to them, and was oftne forced to act like them.   He views her as a representation of his inferiority complex, and strives to defeat her no matter the cost.

Serpentenes Apophis is one of the Pirate Titans, and the captain of the Snake Eye Pirates.  An associate of the Dark Syndicate, he is known throughout the world as the Dread Serpent, for using snakes for many of his activities.  As far as it is known, Apophis was the first, and only, male child to be born on Amazon Lily, where he was named "Rose".  He ate the Hebi Hebi no Mi, Model: Hydra.

Appearance

Apophis is a very tall, slender man, with distinct, snake-like figures. At 10'1, he was the second tallest of the Pirate Titans.

He has large, bright red eyes that are slitted like a snake, and a long fork-tongued. His head is shaved, and coated with snake tattoos. He also has a tattoo of a snake around his neck, and has two golden earings on one ear. Most of time, Apophis wears a black trenchoat, with no shirt, and black pants with black and red snakeskin boots. During Protocol 99, he takes off his trenchcoat.

At the age 14, while attending Gold Roger's execution, Apophis was still bald, but had no tattoos, and he wore a shirt with a red snake on it.  As a child, when he was being disguised as a girl, he had long dark red hair, tied into twin tails, and wore typical Kuja garb.

Personality

A slick, and cunning invidual, Apophis is generally one to think before he acts.  He acts in a restained fashion, and generally observes his enemy before engaging in battle.  During this time, Apophis can act very polite and charming, and holds back significantly.  However, after he feels he has completed his analysis, Apophis attacks with full force.  He drops his polite facade, and fights with a malicious grin.  

One of the more defining features of Apophis, is his inferiority complex.  Having always been told to be someone he wasn't, Apophis was raised to believe that as a male, he was inherently flawed, and inferior to others. He is very sensitive to being compared to others, and doing that can make him fly into a rage.  This makes him reluctant to accept help, as he believes he must achieve his goals on his own.  To Apophis, relying on others leads to stagnation, and one must rely oneself before anyone else.

Another defining feature of his, is Apophis' burning hatred for the Kuja.  Growing up forced to be a girl when he knew he was a boy, and being compared to the other girls caused resentment to stir him, but the resentment turned to hatred when his status as a boy was found out. His mother chose to abandon him on his own, so that she wouldn't be forced to leave, after being forced to choose.  Apophis' ultimate goal, is to someday return to Amazon Lily, solely to watch it burn.

He dislikes the idea of a "Pirate King", believing that pirates can not, and should not, have a "king".  One Piece for him, while real, is something that should be left alone. This is also attributes to his inferiority complex, as the idea of being subservient to another pains him.  With only a few exceptions, Apophis will never let himself take orders from another, and aspires to always be at least on par with authority with another.

Though Apophis can be cruel and ruthless at times, he does have a kinder side.  He possesses a strict opposition to mocking or insulting his foes in anyway, considering such behavior to be beneath one's skill as a warrior.  As such, Apophis treats all his opponents with respect, and never pulls any punches, believing it to be insulting the opponent if he does. Likewise, Apophis does not expect his opponent to hold back in battle against him in anyway.

Relationships

Rako

Apophis and Rako are not on good terms. Rako considers Apophis to be his rival, and a hinderance to his objectives.  Likewise, Apophis is often frusturated by Rako's ferocity, and antagonistic attitude. To that end, the two have regularly engaged in conflict betwen the two. Depiste this, the two of them share a mutual respect, and can work together if need be.

When the two met at the Dark Summit, both demonstrated a willingness to fight, but were put down by Zero

Messorem

Messorem is one of the few people Apophis genuinely respects, and to a lesser extent fears.  He regards Messorem as the strongest of them all, and the Fog Ghost is the only one who Apophis is willing to accept commands from.  Unlike the other Titans, Messorem does not regard Apophis particularly negatively, though to him, Apophis is just another man in the sea, nothing particularly more.
