[QUOTE="Raven Crowking, post: 3635189, member: 18280"] [b]One From Torchwood....SPOLIERS![/b] [b]Abaddon[/b] [indent]Colossal Outsider, Level 10 STR +30, END +20, DEX +0, AGL –5, PCN –5, KNO +0, PSI +10, PRS +15 Skills: None. Knacks: None. HP 244; Saves Fort +30, Ref –5, Will +25; Defence –3; AP 0. [i]Claw:[/i] Abaddon can make a claw attack (+5 attack bonus, 1d3+30 damage). [i]Deadly Shadow:[/i] Any creature that is touched by Abaddon’s shadow must make a Willpower save (DC 40) or die. [i]Very Fast:[/i] Because of his size, Abaddon is Very Fast. [i]Vulnerabilities:[/i] Abaddon can be destroyed by forcing it to consume too much life. “Captain Jack Harkness” was able to use the energy provided by his immortality to defeat Abaddon – the murder of several hundred people was not enough, nor even close to being enough. A gigantic creature with bluish, scaly skin, curved horns, and long snout-like face, Abaddon is known as the “Son of the Great Beast”. The Disciples of Light sealed him beneath the Cardiff Temporal Rift before the universe began, but was able to send emanations from his prison to interact with, and grant power to, his disciple, Bilis Manger. Bilis Manger then manipulated the Torchwood Three team into opening the Rift and freeing Abaddon. Unlike the Beast, Abaddon appeared to be animalistic when released. This might have been a result of his long captivity…or, as the Beast attempted, he might have possessed another being before his corporeal form was destroyed. The Disciples of Light clearly planned against the release of the demons they sealed away, manipulating events so that someone capable of defeating the demon would appear prior to its release. Thus, when “Captain Jack Harkness” used his vortex manipulator, he was brought back through time so that he could use his stored life energy to overload Abaddon. [i]Advancement:[/i] If you write a story where Abaddon survived [i]End of Days[/i], give him a number of psychic powers (including Possession). You will have to determine what powers and statistics are appropriate to his new form. Other demons similar to Abaddon may be imprisoned elsewhere in the universe.
