!!Tabris the Chronicler
A warrior-scholar of Heaven, Tabris was assigned the task of compiling all knowledge in the multiverse. His efforts created three texts, the most infamous of which was the Book of the Damned. His works proved to be too thorough and his kin tried to destroy them, only for the texts to vanish even as their author left Heaven.

* AlwaysABiggerFish: He pulled this on every god of forbidden knowledge and knowledge in general. His works contain ''everything''.
* BadassBookworm: He's a ''warrior''-scholar. He went to Hell, Abaddon, and the Abyss and survived the worst each had to offer.
* BrokenAngel: The torments Tabris endured on his quest for knowledge left him withered, scarred, and broken.
* EmptyShell: By the time he finished his writing, Tabris was deeply broken inside from all he'd witnessed and experienced.
* TheExile: He's banned from Heaven, not that this matters to him.
* FallenAngel: Of a sort. He's not evil, but he's not good anymore either.
* JustFollowingOrders: He doesn't care about how horrible the knowledge he collected is, only that he was told to assemble it and he completed his task.
* RedemptionRejection: His comrades offered him the chance to return to them after his work was complete, but he had seen too much to care about that anymore.
* SoulFragment: Tabris knew that simply completing his books would be insufficient, as the moment they were complete they would become outdated. As a solution, he fragmented his soul and imbued each book with a sliver of himself to perpetually update the text.
* TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow: The other angels were horrified by how thorough of an accounting he'd made. Interestingly, it wasn't the Book of the Damned that affronted them the most but Chronicle of the Righteous, the book on good. See, everything meant ''everything'' and it detailed things about good deities, planes, and beings that would shatter the faith of any mortal. As a result, the relevant chapters were excised so the Chronicle could serve its intended purpose, though they can still be accessed through the Book of the Damned if [[DismantledMacguffin it's completed]].
* ToHellAndBack: When scouts and soldiers couldn't do the job, he went to the lower planes himself.
* TomeOfEldritchLore: He wrote three of them. The Book of the Damned covered all evil, the Chronicle of the Righteous covered all good, and Concordance of Rivals, which presumably covered everything neutral along the good-evil spectrum.
* TrueNeutral: After learning everything, Tabris lost all interest in good, evil, order, or chaos.

[[folder:The Dustbringer]]
A cyclopean creation of Charon, the Dustbringer is a daemonic war machine imbued with terrible life. Asmodeus himself imprisoned it in Caina after but a single use on the Material Plane rather than allow it to roam free.
----
* {{Cyclops}}: It has only one eye.
* TheGhost: Justified. The Dustbringer was used only once on a world far away from Golarion a long time ago and imprisoned immediately after. Since then, no one's really had the inclination to venture to the depths of Hell to see a monster that would kill them the instant it knows they're there.
* {{Kaiju}}: The Dustbringer is really, ''really'' big. For scale, the chains that hold it bound are used to hold together floating islands.
* LivingWeapon: Though not truly alive, as that would mean it has a soul, the Dustbringer is intelligent and a weapon unrivaled by mortal creations.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Seriously, the Dustbringer isn't called that because it's coming to help you with your taxes.
* OmnicidalManiac: As a creation of the daemons, it shares their desire to see reality razed clean of life.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: It's essentially a living WMD.
* RealityWarper: It warps the rightful natures of multiversal constants, something that not even Asmodeus can abide.
* SealedEvilInACan: The Dustbringer is ensnared in the chains of Caina.
* TimeMaster: Despite the supposedly fixed nature of time, the Dustbringer can pervert the multiversal constant to its own ends. The one time it was allowed to fulfill its purpose, it turned an empire into the ruins of its distant future far beyond its rightful time.

!!Abbadon

!!The Abyss
----
[[folder:Maelstrom]]
A Chaotic Neutral plane of, well... Chaos. It is the least metaphysically stable of the Outer Planes, less so than even the Abyss. It is home to the proteans.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Hell]]
A Lawful Evil plane of strict order and cruel hierarchy, home to the devils. It is separated into nine layers, the ninth and deepest of which is Nessus, throne-world of the deity Asmodeus. Archdevils subservient to Asmodeus rule the other eight layers in his name.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Abbadon]]
A Neutral Evil plane, ruled by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and populated by their servants, the death-hungry daemons.
----
*CrapsackWorld: Might be putting it lightly. Those who end up here in their afterlife are constantly hunted by daemons, who kill them quickly if they're lucky. Mortals who wander in the wrong places usually meet the same fate. Even visiting the relatively peaceful cities on the plane might still see you swindled by night hags into having your soul trapped and sold... most likely to daemons, who will eat it.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:TheAbyss]]
A Chaotic Evil plane of functionally infinite size, home to the demons. Chief among these are the Demon Lords, which have divine power and constantly vie for dominance of the world.
----
*GeniusLoci: Unlike the other planes, special attention is given to the Abyss as a living thing in its own right.
