"Abaddon! Lord of the Everlasting Depths, Keeper of Secrets, open mine eyes and bestow upon me the knowledge of the Abyss..."
—from the Scriptures of Abaddon, giver of magic

Statue Plaque

Statues of Abaddon can be found rarely across Tyria. Depicting the now-dead god Abaddon, the most well-known statue is found in the Durmand Priory's Special Collections, just inside its entrance. Abaddon is portrayed as a man wearing a toga, clawed gloves, and a tentacled, six-eyed mask. His left hand is outstretched with the palm facing up, and his right hand holds a scroll.

In the domed ceiling above the statue is an arcane illustration that depicts Lord Odran's map of The Mists, originally seen on the backgrounds of Guild Wars manual pages and website, and the message (in Ascalonian) "Beware the danger of secrets kept".

  • If the player does the dance emote (/dance) in front of the Abaddon statue in the Desolation or during Hidden Arcana, they will be hit with massive damage, sending them into the downed state, a reference to how dancing in front of Abaddon in Guild Wars Nightfall would result in him dancing before the whole party is auto-killed with the message "You got served!" appearing.
