Abaddon

Abaddon, God of Secrets and Water, was once known as one of the six Gods of Tyria. He was the god who is said to have distributed the gift of magic; however, he gave it out too freely and wars between the races soon began. Because of the wars the other five gods limited the use of magic through the creation of the bloodstones, but Abaddon disagreed. Angered, Abaddon used his Margonite army to start a war against the other five gods and attacked the place known as Gates of Heaven. Although he was capable of overpowering two gods on his own, he was defeated at the place now known as the Mouth of Torment and was imprisoned in the Realm of Torment, chained and weakened. It was because of this war that the gods left Tyria.

Throughout his imprisonment, servants of Abaddon - including the Titans, Razakel and the Fortune Teller - escaped to the world of Tyria and, through the corruption of humans such as Vizier Khilbron, Shiro Tagachi, and Varesh Ossa, were the instigators of various disasters. The Jade Wind, the Searing, the Cataclysm, Shiro's return, and Varesh's ritual were attempts to progress Nightfall and push for Abaddon's freedom. In those attempts, Abaddon gained the help of Menzies and Dhuum's servants. Their combined forces were behind the assaults on Tomb of the Primeval Kings and the Dragon Festival.

At the end of the Nightfall campaign, Abaddon is killed by the player characters, and his power is taken over by Kormir, who becomes the Goddess of Truth.

Trivia

 * If your party uses the /dance emote before engaging Abaddon he will perform some warrior dance moves before slaying your entire party with the message "You got served!". Every human party member must use the dance emote for this to work. The emote /dancenew does not trigger the effect.
 * The message "You got served!" is most likely a reference to the 2004 dance movie You Got Served.
 * The name "Abaddon" is the English form of the word "Avadon" (אבדון) in Hebrew which translates to "Doom". In demonology, Abaddon was chief of the demons of the seventh hierarchy and was called The Destroyer.
 * Abaddon is the largest foe in Guild Wars to date.
