Oh Lord have you walked away?
Oh Lord have you walked away from me? 

Name Abaddon / Preston Burke
Age ???
Height7'0" / 6'3"
Build Lean muscle
Species Cherub
GenderMale 
Personality 

Abaddon's base personality is cold, calculating, and seemingly not-all-there. He functions rather mechanically that it is extremely unnerving to quite a few angels, who expected a young angel to be more chipper. As he's rather unaware of societal standards and customs in literally, everything, he can come off relatively rude and disinterested. 

However, this attitude is not intentional. Abaddon does not mean to come off as aggressively as he does, he simply doesn't know any better. In his human disguise, entirely forgetting his time as an angel, he's relatively curious, naive, and full of awe. His behavior does a complete 180 and he fully expresses interest in whatever new thing crosses his path. For things that really engage him, he gets particularly revved up for. Despite his height and demeanor, he is relatively child-like in his mannerisms.

History 

"Look at you, the demon calling itself an angel."

The Lord works in mysterious ways, anyone, person or angel would say. There's always some kind of rhyme or reason to his decisions, which makes the anomaly known as Abaddon even more abnormal.

A lowly locust exalted into angelic status following the plagues.

Abaddon seemed to have no reason to have been exalted in the first place. It seemed utterly by chance was his original personage chosen, though one could argue maybe he did a better job of eating crops versus his compatriots. Whatever the reason is - no one can really pinpoint it, not even the archangels. Born a Cherub and Nemosyne - angels instated by Michael, following Lucifer's rebellion, with the job of erasing rebellious angels of their memories and powers - Abaddon was clearly meant to do something, far in the future.

The pure mystery surrounding the angel had caused some feelings of discomfort. He did his job as a Nemosyne, and he did it well. Abaddon swiftly made short work of anyone with the misfortune of being chosen for the Mnemonic Process. Begging never broke through his cold demeanor, and he never seemed to express any feeling short of apathy following a completed job.

His mechanical behavior and utter disregard for his new kin dashed any feelings of camaraderie left within the community as no one understood how a new angel could lack compassion. Only one angel really feels any sort of 'friendship' with him, that angel being Zachriel. To an extent, Abaddon does feel some kind of fondness for him. Now had Zachriel, or anyone else, bothered to keep chipping away at his shell - they would've discovered an inherent sense of curiosity and an angel who doesn't even know his purpose either.

No one seemed to understand that he wouldn't turn on his own kind.

Trivia 

  • He HIGHLY enjoys comic books. He very likely has written fanfic.
  • Much like Zachriel's crows, insects love to converge on his location. Primarily grasshoppers.
  • The eyes on his wing are sentient, but completely blind. They will look at and focus on objects but he cannot see through them.

Dante 'dear friend'

Abaddon is highly grateful of Dante's help in the initial months of his ''fall''. He is very fond of the man and loves him dearly, whether or not he's aware the feelings he has for him are almost entirely romantic is up for debate.

ZachrielAcquaintance

Zachriel and Abaddon's relationship are as close to a friendship two apathetic angels are capable of getting to. Abaddon enjoys Zachriel's presence a significant amount more than any other angel's.
