Card Trivia

 Apophis was the Greek name of a demon in Egyptian mythology, Apep. Depicted as a massive serpent, Apep was considered the personification of chaos. The Ancient Egyptians believed that Ra, the sun god, battled Apep at the end of each day, before returning to the east in the morning. Natural phenomenon like earthquakes and solar eclipses were believed to be moments when Apep temporarily overwhelmed Ra, plunging the world into chaos until the sun god freed himself from the serpent.
This card is the first Trap Monster to be treated as a Normal Monster after it resolves.
