Abyssen of the Chaos
Oh, mortals... Your kind is so sweet, so... tasteful. I just want to take care of you, you know? You're not quite capable of doing it on your own, you see... Just let me handle everything... Abyssen to one of its victims
Abyssen of the Chaos is an ancient, powerful Demon born of the union of Shaatrixia, Breeder of Chaos, and a Valkyrie. Known for being a seductor, indiscriminate of gender, he takes pleasure in taking its victims to its lair in The Chaos, slowly draining their brains and turning them into living, perfect dolls. Modelling them with a unique Arcanic Matrix that fuses the flesh, he makes them into his favorite look: porcelain skin, empty eyes, and completely obedient. His use for the dolls is primarily aesthetic, decorating his tasteful mansion of the Endless City, spending long hours observing them, happy with his work, and reorganizing them frequently, talking to them as if they still had an individual personnality outside of simple obedience.
Abyssen with his open jaw
Although Abyssen is known for its great beauty, capable of ensnaring and seducing many of his victims, his unhinged, terrifying jaw is generally a shock for them, before they feel the sting of his venom, injected through a pointy needle at the end of his tongue.

Their flesh replaced by a strange, stoney texture made of Arcana, their empty eyes reflecting the personnality destruction they go under, and ready to serve their creator. Although most of them simply stand around for all of eternity, simply service as decorative statues to the Demon, he uses some others, slightly smarter ones, as emissaries, guards, or even companions.
Although it does have a preference for human victims, Abyssen sometimes choses Demons of particularly high standard and beauty to join his collection of dolls, process that tends to be allowed by the Lords of Chaos. Even if he is an eccentric, and hard to control, he has an uncanny power and ability to defeat even powerful foe, that is more useful to the Lords than average soldiers. Despite being a half-sibling to the Valkyries, he is hated by them, not being a proud hunter like they are, but instead employing tactics and results they frown upon. Outside of the realm of Chaos, he is known by humans as a sort of forbidden pleasure, a dangerous Demon that can be used to satisfy certain cravings, but must be banished before it drains your entire being, which is rarely succesful. Abyssen himself enjoys this little game, and the few humans that managed to escape his grasp are his favorite, chosen for a very special place in his collection. It has been confirmed by recovering three of his dolls that they are still alive, although most of their personnality is gone, and no reversal procedure has been found, even by the most advanced experts, who deemed the most humane option to simply let them pass. They do not need nourishment or water, simply a small, steady supply of energy, which one cut off, lets them crumble into dust. The Global Academy of Sorcery classified him as an A1 threat, and despite his nature as
a Demon, his particular cruelty and purposeful hunting of humans landed him in the Monsters category instead.
