I am the Arch-fiend, the Despoiler of Worlds, and by my hands shall the false Emperor fall.
我即大魔，世界的掠夺者，伪帝将被我之手打倒。
Ezekyle Abaddon, more commonly known as Abaddon the Despoiler, is the Warmaster of Chaos, the former First Captain of the Sons of Horus Legion and now absolute Master of the Black Legion, and rumoured to be the clone-progeny of Warmaster Horus. He is the most powerful Warmaster of all, successor to Horus, and blessed by all four of the Gods of Chaos. Despite being the Warmaster of Chaos, Abaddon has refused giving himself fully over to the Ruinous Powers as the Daemon Primarchs have, as this would limit his existence beyond the Eye of Terror and push his ultimate vengeance against the Imperium beyond his grasp.
以泽凯尔·阿巴顿，更为人所知的是掠夺者阿巴顿，是混沌战帅，荷鲁斯之子军团的前第一连长，现在是黑色军团的绝对之主，据传是战帅荷鲁斯的克隆子嗣。他是最强大的战帅，是荷鲁斯的继承者，受到混沌四神的祝福。尽管阿巴顿是混沌战帅，但他拒绝像恶魔原体那样完全屈服于毁灭力量，因为这将限制他在恐惧之眼之外的存在，并使他对帝国的最终复仇超出他的掌控。

Biography 传记
Pre-Heresy 叛乱前
Abaddon was the firstborn son of Tarkeraddon, one of the most mighty of Cthonia’s gang warlords. As he reached adulthood, his father expected him to complete a Cthonian coming of age ritual that involved executing his closest comrades. Abaddon refused and expressed his disdain for kingship, instead slaying his father and his bodyguards. Though he lived in exile after that point, his massive build and natural ferocity saw him grow to be a legend amongst his people. Before long the vicious young warrior came to the attention of the Luna Wolves. Saved from death after a ambush from a rival gang, Abaddon was confronted by Hastur Sejanus and Syrakul. Abaddon expressed that he never had any desire to be a king, and was subsequently accepted into the Luna Wolves and converted into a Space Marine on Luna. After his completion as an Astartes, he was confronted by Horus and pledged service, being given a coin by the Primarch.
阿巴顿是塔克拉顿的长子，塔克拉顿是科索尼亚最强大的帮派军阀之一。当他成年时，他的父亲希望他完成一个科索尼亚的成年仪式，其中包括处决他最亲密的战友。阿巴顿拒绝了，并表达了他对王权的蔑视，而是杀死了他的父亲和护卫。尽管在那之后他流亡在外，但他巨大的体格和天生的凶猛使他成为了人民中的传奇。不久，这个恶毒的年轻战士引起了影月苍狼的注意。阿巴顿在遭到敌对帮派伏击后幸免于难，与哈斯塔·赛詹努斯和西拉库尔对峙。阿巴顿表示，他从未有过成为王的愿望，随后被接纳为影月苍狼，并在月球上成为一名星际战士。在他成为一名阿斯塔特后，他遇到了荷鲁斯，并承诺服役，被原体赠予一枚硬币。
Abaddon at the time of the Great Crusade 大远征时期的阿巴顿
During the Great Crusade, Ezekyle Abaddon rose to the prestigious post of First Captain. He loved and worshiped Horus as a father, and it was rumoured that Abaddon was one of the few "Sons of Horus," those Space Marines who were created directly from Horus's geneseed. Extremely proud and quick to anger, Abaddon's martial record was unsurpassed by that of any other Luna Wolf. Bellicose by temperament, Abaddon was usually the most hawkish of the Warmaster's advisors. During the final years of the Crusade, Abaddon disagreed, sometimes violently, with Horus's decision to parley with the Interex, a human civilization that allowed an alien species to co-exist with them.
在大远征期间，以泽凯尔·阿巴顿升任著名的第一连长。他像父亲一样爱和崇拜荷鲁斯，有传言说阿巴顿是少数“荷鲁斯之子”之一，这些星际战士是直接从荷鲁斯的基因中创造出来的。阿巴顿非常骄傲，也很容易发怒，他的战斗记录是其他任何影月苍狼都无法比拟的。阿巴顿生性好战，通常是战帅顾问中最鹰派的。在大远征的最后几年，阿巴顿不同意荷鲁斯与允许与外来物种共存的人类文明英特雷斯谈判的决定，有时甚至是激烈的反对。
During the Ullanor Crusade, Abaddon accompanied Horus and a detachment of Terminators from the First Company in a daring strike on the headquarters of the Ork Warboss Urlakk Urg. While the majority of the detachment held the entrance to the Warboss's tower against hordes of greenskins, Horus confronted and slew the Warboss. As the greenskin hordes fled in terror, Horus found every one of the terminators had fallen except for Abaddon, barely alive and buried under a mountain of Ork bodies.
在乌兰诺远征期间，阿巴顿陪同荷鲁斯和第一连队的终结者特遣队对欧克战争头目 乌尔拉克·乌尔格的总部进行了大胆的袭击。当大部分特遣队守住了战争头目塔楼的入口，对抗成群的绿皮时，荷鲁斯与战争头目对峙并杀死了战争头目。当绿皮部落惊恐地逃跑时，荷鲁斯发现除了阿巴顿之外，所有的终结者都倒下了，几乎没有幸存者，被埋在一堆欧克尸体下。
In addition to his position as First Captain, Abaddon was also one of the four members of the Mournival, a special advisory council to the Warmaster, since its inception. He took his position extremely seriously, but did enjoy sharing his sense of humour with his Mournival brothers. Abaddon eventually grew frustrated and angry at the Emperor's supposed abandonment of the Space Marine Legions, feelings which swelled to the surface when Horus lay near to death on Davin. A member of the warrior-lodge within the Sons of Horus, he went along with Erebus's plan to take the Warmaster to the Serpent Lodge for healing, beginning Abaddon's road to damnation.
除了担任第一连长外，阿巴顿还是战帅特别顾问议会四王议会的四名成员之一。他非常认真地对待自己的立场，但确实喜欢与他的四王议会的兄弟分享他的幽默感。阿巴顿最终对帝皇所谓的放弃星际战士感到沮丧和愤怒，当荷鲁斯在戴文濒临死亡时，这种情绪浮出水面。作为荷鲁斯之子战士结社的一员，他同意艾瑞巴斯的计划，将战帅带到毒蛇结社进行治疗，开始了阿巴顿的诅咒之路。
The Horus Heresy 荷鲁斯叛乱
Betrayal 背叛
After Horus's recovery, Abaddon grew ever more protective of his Primarch and his Legion's reputation, to the point where he saw remembrancer criticism and Imperial investigation into Legion activities as threats and insults that could not be borne. He therefore sanctioned the murder of Ignace Karkasy and the blaming of Legion-caused civilian casualties upon Garviel Loken. This course of action was frustrated by the refusal of Tarik Torgaddon to accede to the plan, and the Mournival brotherhood was effectively broken as a result.
荷鲁斯康复后，阿巴顿越来越维护他的原体和军团的声誉，以至于他认为纪念批评和帝国对军团行动的调查是无法忍受的威胁和侮辱。因此，他批准了对伊格尼斯·卡尔卡斯的谋杀，并将退军团造成的平民伤亡归咎于加维尔·洛肯。塔里克·托加顿拒绝加入该计划，这一行动方针受挫，四王议会的兄弟情谊因此被有效地打破。
Abaddon battles Garviel Loken during the Battle of Isstvan III 阿巴顿在伊斯塔万三号之战期间与加维尔·洛肯战斗
Abaddon's thinking would prove to be in tune with that of his commander, who would eventually order not only the death of Karkasy but also that of Loken. Seemingly destined to be in lockstep with the Warmaster, when Horus came to the warrior-lodge of his Legion to sway them into following him onto what would prove to be the path of heresy, Abaddon was amongst the first to swear his unquestioning loyalty.
阿巴顿的想法将被证明与他的指挥官的想法是一致的，他最终不仅下令杀死卡尔卡斯，还下令杀死洛肯。似乎注定要与战帅步调一致，当荷鲁斯来到他的军团的战士结社，说服他们跟随他走上叛乱之路时，阿巴顿是第一个宣誓绝对忠诚的人之一。
Abaddon was present at several of the major actions of the Horus Heresy. During the purging of the loyalist Legionaries at Isstvan III, Abaddon notably took to the field to attend the final meeting of what had once been the Mournival, at which he dueled with Garviel Loken. Though slightly wounded in the combat, Abaddon emerged the victor. Abaddon again dueled Loken on the Vengeful Spirit in the aftermath of the Battle of Molech after the Knights-Errant attempted to assassinate Horus. During the Battle of Trisolian Abaddon relished the massacre of his former comrade Bror Tyrfingr and expressed shock when Horus, cleansed of some corruption by the Spear of Russ, expressed regret for how much blood had been spilled in his war. Subsequently, Abaddon was charged with hunting down and finish off the Wolves at the Battle of Yarant. However the Wolves ultimately escaped thanks to the aid of Corax, and Abaddon returned to Horus' side during the muster at Ullanor. During the subsequent Solar War, Abaddon was given the important duty of capturing Luna from loyalist forces. Commanding a fleet of Sons of Horus, Word Bearers under Zardu Layak, and Thousand Sons under Ahzek Ahriman, Abaddon's forces initially clashed with the White Scars fleet under Jubal Khan. During the boarding of the White Scars Battleship Lance of Heaven alongside Layak, Abaddon dueled and slew Jubal. He next directed the Battle Barge War Oath in a kamikaze attack on the defensive ring around Luna, devastating the loyalist defenses as he teleported onto the moons surface with his Justaerin elite. During the fighting inside Luna's gene-labs, he convinced the Selenar Matriarch Heliosa-78 to join Horus instead of following through with Rogal Dorn's orders to destroy her precious gene-tech in order to prevent it from falling into traitor hands.
阿巴顿出席了荷鲁斯异端的几次重大行动。在伊斯塔万三号对忠诚的军团士兵进行清洗期间，阿巴顿特别前往战场参加了曾经是四王议会的最后一次会议，在会议上他与加维尔·洛肯决斗。尽管在战斗中受了轻伤，阿巴顿还是取得了胜利。在摩洛之战结束后，阿巴顿再次与洛肯在复仇之魂号上决斗，此前游侠骑士试图暗杀荷鲁斯。在特里索兰战役中，阿巴顿享受着对前战友布罗尔·提尔芬格的残杀，并对被鲁斯之矛清除了一些腐化的荷鲁斯对战争中洒下的鲜血表示遗憾时表示震惊。随后，阿巴顿被下令在雅兰特之战中追捕并消灭野狼。然而，在科拉克斯的帮助下，野狼最终逃脱了，阿巴顿在乌兰诺集结时回到了荷鲁斯身边。在随后的太阳战争中，阿巴顿被赋予了从忠诚者手中夺取月球的重要职责。阿巴顿的部队指挥着一支由荷鲁斯之子、扎杜·拉亚克率领的怀言者和阿扎克·阿里曼率领的千子组成的舰队，最初与朱巴可汗率领的白色伤疤舰队发生冲突。在与拉亚克并肩登上白色伤疤战舰天堂之枪号时，阿巴顿决斗并杀死了朱巴。接下来，他指挥了战斗驳船战争誓言号，对月球周围的防御圈进行了神风特攻，在他与加斯塔林精英一起传送到月球表面时，摧毁了忠诚者的防御。在月球基因实验室内的战斗中，他说服了赛琳娜教派主母赫丽奥萨-78加入荷鲁斯，而不是执行罗格·多恩的命令，摧毁她珍贵的基因技术，以防止其落入叛徒之手。
Terra 泰拉
Horus was weak. Horus was a fool. He had the whole galaxy within his grasp and he let it slip away.
荷鲁斯是虚弱的。荷鲁斯是个蠢货。他掌控着整个银河系，却让它溜走了。
Abaddon was at Horus' side during the Siege of the Imperial Palace. By this time Horus was literally swelling with the power of the Chaos Gods and spent much of his time comatose inside Lupercal's Court scanning the Warp. By this point Abaddon began to grow openly resentful of his gene-father, viewing him as displaying weakness and becoming a slave to the Chaos Gods. He resisted the urge to kneel before Horus but when in the moments that the Warmaster's old charisma returned so did the First Captains admiration. He blamed much of Horus' state on Zardu Layak, but was forbidden from killing the Dark Apostle. With Horus' increasingly absent from command of the battle, holding the traitor war effort together in the face of the rebellious traitor Primarch's increasingly fell to Abaddon. Abaddon later learned from Layak that Horus' very soul was being consumed by the Chaos Gods as they poured their power into him, and that the Warmaster's remaining time was limited. Abaddon asked what would happen if Horus died before he slew the Emperor, to which Layak replied that the Gods would simply find a new champion.
围攻皇宫期间，阿巴顿站在荷鲁斯身边。此时，荷鲁斯已经被混沌诸神的力量所膨胀，大部分时间都在卢佩卡尔王庭里昏迷，查看亚空间。此时，阿巴顿开始公开憎恨他的基因之父，认为他表现出软弱，成为混沌诸神的奴隶。他克制住了在荷鲁斯面前下跪的冲动，但当战帅过去的魅力回来的时候，第一连长的钦佩也回来了。他将荷鲁斯的大部分状况归咎于扎杜·拉亚克，但被禁止杀害这位黑暗使徒。随着荷鲁斯越来越缺席战斗指挥，面对叛逆的叛徒原体越来越多地落入阿巴顿之手，他团结了叛徒的战争努力。阿巴顿后来从拉亚克那里得知，荷鲁斯的灵魂正被混沌诸神吞噬，因为他们向他倾注了力量，而战帅的剩余时间是有限的。阿巴顿问，如果荷鲁斯在杀死帝皇之前死去，会发生什么，拉亚克回答说，诸神只会找到一个新的冠军。
Abaddon during the Heresy 叛乱时期荷鲁斯
In the battle for the Lion's Gate Spaceport Abaddon led 3,000 Sons of Horus in an attack on the complex's highest levels alongside Zardu Layak, Kharn, and Kroeger. During the battle Kharn became stranded behind Imperial lines as Rogal Dorn closed in, and rather than abandon his ally Abaddon led an attack to rescue the World Eater. Needing to protect the future champion of the Gods, Zardu Layak scarified himself to hold off the Primarch and allow Abaddon and Kharn to escape. By this point in the battle, Abaddon had become frustrated with Horus for not taking to the field of battle himself. After the fall of Lion's Gate, Abaddon observed the same flaw in the Saturnine Gate that Perturabo had also discovered. Wishing to end the war as quickly as possible in order to save the quickly-decaying Horus, Abaddon proposed exploiting the breach in Saturnine to end the siege in a matter of weeks as opposed to months. Perturabo was hesitant, thinking Dorn also knew of the flaw and that the attack was a trap. Abaddon convinced Perturabo to allow him to lead the assault, freeing the Lord of Iron from humiliation and his own Legion's blood should it fail. For the operation, Abaddon assembled the whole of the Emperor's Children by convincing Eidolon to the attack the Saturnine walls on the surface while he led the Justaerin, Reaver Attack Squad, 18th Company, and 19th Companies in a subterranean assault. However just as Perturabo suspected, the attack was a trap set by the loyalists and many of the Sons of Horus Dark Mechanicum-provided burrowing vehicles broke down. In the ensuing ambush led by Garviel Loken and Nathaniel Garro, Abaddon managed to slay Bel Sepatus but barely escaped with his life. He vowed to one day kill Perturabo and his Dark Mechanicum allies for allowing the disaster to develop as it had. He also found that he had loved the heat of desperate battle to the point where leaving it made him weep.
在争夺狮门太空港的战斗中，阿巴顿率领3000名荷鲁斯之子与扎杜·拉亚克、卡恩和克罗格尔一起袭击了该建筑群的最高层。在战斗中，当罗格·多恩逼近时，卡恩被困在帝国战线后面，阿巴顿不是抛弃他的盟友而是领导了一场营救吞世者的进攻。为了保护未来的诸神冠军，扎杜·拉亚克牺牲了他自己拖延住了原体，让阿巴顿和卡恩逃脱。在战斗的这一点上，阿巴顿对荷鲁斯没有亲自进入战场感到沮丧。狮门陷落后，阿巴顿在土星之门上发现了佩图拉博也发现的同样的缺陷。为了尽快结束战争以拯救迅速衰落的荷鲁斯，阿巴顿提议利用土星之门的缺口在几周内而不是几个月内结束围困。佩图拉博犹豫不决，认为多恩也知道这个缺陷，这次攻击是一个陷阱。阿巴顿说服佩图拉博允许他领导这次进攻，如果失败，钢铁之王将免于羞辱和他自己的军团的鲜血。在这次行动中，阿巴顿说服艾多隆召集整个帝皇之子在地面上攻击土星之墙，同时带领加斯塔林、掠夺者攻击小队、第18连队和第19连队进行地下攻击。然而，正如佩图拉博所怀疑的那样，这次袭击是忠诚者设置的陷阱，黑暗机械教给荷鲁斯之子提供的许多挖洞车都坏了。在随后由加维尔·洛肯和纳撒尼尔·伽罗领导的伏击中，阿巴顿设法杀死了贝尔·塞帕图斯，差点没能逃脱。他发誓有一天要杀死佩图拉博和他的黑暗机械教盟友，因为他们任由灾难继续发展。他还发现，他喜欢绝望战斗的激烈程度，以至于离开时让他哭泣。
Abaddon next appeared at the head of a massive traitor assault on the final bastions of the Sanctum Imperialis, but by this point he had grown disgusted by the madness and horror that his own forces had unleashed, the use of Daemons by his allies, and the breakdown of the chain of command in his own Sons of Horus. After learning that Horus had dropped the Void Shields of the Vengeful Spirit, Abaddon was committed to rush to his fathers side to aid him. To that end, he summoned the remaining Captains he felt were sane enough to follow him such as Hellas Sycar, Lycas Fyton, and Azelas Baraxa. Many more Captains ignored his summons, further adding to his agitation. At their meeting, Abadoon appeared pessimistic and dour, unnerving those officers who did arrive. After Abaddon announced that he intended to abandon the Terran warzone for the Vengeful Spirit, he was openly insulted by Captain Fyton, who stated that the First Captain had become defeatist and was no longer worthy of commanding others. After Fyton ignored Baraxa's urgings to respect the First Captain, Sycar murdered the defiant officer and thus cemented Abaddon's control over the sane Sons of Horus.
阿巴顿随后出现在对帝国圣地最后堡垒的大规模叛徒袭击中，但到目前为止，他已经对自己的部队所释放的疯狂和恐怖、盟友对恶魔的使用以及他自己的荷鲁斯之子指挥链的崩溃感到厌恶。在得知荷鲁斯放下了复仇之魂号的虚空盾后，阿巴顿决心冲向他父亲身边帮助他。为此，他召集了他认为足够理智的其余连长跟随他，如赫拉斯·赛卡、莱卡斯·费顿和阿兹拉斯·巴拉克萨。更多的连长无视他的召唤，进一步加剧了他的焦虑。在他们的会议上，阿巴顿显得悲观而阴沉，让那些到达的军官感到不安。阿巴顿宣布他打算为了复仇之魂号而放弃泰拉战区后，他被费顿连长公然侮辱，费顿连长表示，第一连长已经成为失败主义者，不再值得指挥他人。在费顿无视巴拉克萨尊重第一连长的敦促后，赛卡杀害了这位反抗的军官，从而巩固了阿巴顿对理智的荷鲁斯之子的控制。
Abaddon and the last vestiges of the sane Legion subsequently attempted to board the Vengeful Spirit with space-worthy shuttles, but immediately found themselves aboard the vessel as if they had been teleported. Fighting through the Warp madness he found aboard the vessel, Abaddon was shaken to find that even Kenor Argonis had been driven to a state of insanity after witnessing what Horus had become. Abaddon became determined to find his father and return him to reason, but his troops were confronted by a group of frenzied Word Bearers as well as Imperial Army soldiers and forced to fight their former comrades-in-arms. Abaddon was saved from an extended battle by Erebus, who despite Abaddon's threats to kill him managed to somehow calm the maddened Word Bearers. Soon after, Abaddon and his forces encountered Constantin Valdor and his Custodes aboard the vessel, resulting in an even more vicious battle.
阿巴顿和理智的军团的最后残余随后试图乘坐航天飞机登上复仇之魂号，但发现自己立即登上了飞船，就好像被传送了一样。阿巴顿在船上发现了亚空间的疯狂，他震惊地发现，就连基诺·阿尔戈尼斯在目睹了荷鲁斯的所作所为后，也被推向了疯狂的状态。阿巴顿下定决心要找到他的父亲，让他恢复理智，但他的部队遇到了一群疯狂的怀言者和帝国陆军士兵，被迫与他们的前战友作战。阿巴顿被艾瑞巴斯从一场旷日持久的战斗中救了出来，尽管阿巴顿威胁要杀死他，艾瑞巴斯还是设法平息了疯狂的怀言者。不久之后，阿巴顿和他的部队在船上遇到了康斯坦丁·瓦尔多和他的禁军，导致了一场更加激烈的战斗。
Realizing he could not best Valdor in a conventional fight, Abaddon temporarily allowed Erebus to use the powers of Warp to aid him and his Justaerin. Together, Erebus, Abaddon, and the Justaerin were able to badly wound Valdor. During the struggle, Valdor pierced Abaddon with the Apollonian Spear and gleamed the dark truth of the next 10,000 years, dubbing Abaddon "Despoiler". As the fight dragged on, the clashes extended into the Inevitable City with which the Vengeful Spirit was gradually merging. Regardless of Abaddon's efforts, Valdor and several of his companions managed to escape when Rogal Dorn suddenly intervened in the battle. Many of Abaddon's comrades were subsequently killed, and they were prevented from reaching Horus.
意识到他无法在常规战斗中击败瓦尔多，阿巴顿暂时允许艾瑞巴斯使用亚空间的力量来帮助他和他的加斯塔林。艾瑞巴斯、阿巴顿和加斯塔林一起重伤了瓦尔多。在战斗中，瓦尔多用日神之矛刺穿了阿巴顿，并揭示了未来一万年的黑暗真相，称阿巴顿为“掠夺者”。随着战斗的持续，冲突蔓延到不可避免之城，复仇之魂号逐渐与之融合。尽管阿巴顿做出了努力，但当罗格·多恩突然介入战斗时，瓦尔多和他的几个同伴设法逃脱了。阿巴顿的许多战友随后被杀，他们被阻止前往荷鲁斯所在。
By the time Abaddon finally reached his father, the Primarch had already been struck down by the Emperor. Discovering Garviel Loken watching over Horus' corpse, Abaddon allowed his former brother to live, believing too much blood had been spilt already. Loken stated that if Abaddon surrendered now, he would see to it that Dorn spared the lives of the remaining Sons of Horus. Abaddon rejected this notion and stated their cause of rebellion to still be just; however, he appeared to at least consider Loken's arguments to fully reject Chaos. Before Abaddon could embrace this idea, Erebus appeared behind Loken and stabbed him through the back. Abaddon expressed horror and fury at Loken's sudden murder, but Erebus explained that his death was a necessary event to create the Daemon Samus in the first place. Erebus convinced Abaddon that he could learn to control the Warp better than his father, who had been rendered a slave to darkness. Thus, Abaddon let Erebus live as the latter was still potentially useful. Afterward, he reestablished command over the Vengeful Spirit which had been cut from the Warp due to Horus' demise. He then observed the retreat of the Sons of Horus from Terra before ordering a retreat from the Sol System. The traitors eventually fled into the Eye of Terror.
当阿巴顿终于找到他的父亲时，这位原体已经被帝皇打倒了。阿巴顿发现加维尔·洛肯在看护荷鲁斯的尸体，他让他的前兄弟活了下来，认为已经流了太多的血。洛肯表示，如果阿巴顿现在投降，他会确保多恩饶了剩下的荷鲁斯之子的命。阿巴顿拒绝了这一观点，并表示他们的叛乱原因仍然是正义的；然而，他似乎至少考虑了洛肯完全拒绝混沌的论点。阿巴顿还没来得及接受这个想法，艾瑞巴斯就出现在洛肯身后，从背后捅了他一刀。阿巴顿对对洛肯的突然谋杀表示震惊和愤怒，但艾瑞巴斯解释说，他的死亡是创造恶魔萨姆斯的必要事件。艾瑞巴斯说服阿巴顿，他可以比他的父亲更好地学习控制亚空间，因为他的父亲已经成为了黑暗之奴。因此，阿巴顿让艾瑞巴斯继续存在，因为后者仍然有潜在的用处。之后，他重新建立了对复仇之魂号的指挥权，由于荷鲁斯的死亡，复仇之魂号从亚空间中被切断。然后，他观察到荷鲁斯之子从泰拉撤退，然后下令从太阳系撤退。叛徒最终逃进了恐惧之眼。
Post-Heresy 叛乱后
Forming the Black Legion 组建黑色军团
Shortly after the Heresy, Abaddon abandoned the Legion; broken by the death of Horus and sick of war, he wandered alone into the Eye of Terror. Meanwhile, within the Eye itself, civil war soon broke out amongst the traitor Legions. Becoming embroiled in a war against the Emperor's Children, the Sons of Horus's fortress of Lupercalios on Maeleum was destroyed and the Emperor's Children stole the corpse of Warmaster Horus himself. Eventually with the help of Fabius Bile, a number of clones of Horus were created, an act which disgusted the Sons of Horus. With the Sons of Horus in a desperate situation, warband leaders Falkus Kibre, Iskandar Khayon, and Lheorvine Ukris decided to seek out the Vengeful Spirit and Abaddon with it. With the help of the Word Bearers Sargon, they eventually found the Vengeful Spirit buried on the former Eldar world of Aas'ciaral in the Eleusinian Veil deep within the Eye of Terror. Inside they found Abaddon, who revealed he had dispatched Sargon to bring them to him. Abaddon had become reinvigorated at the news of the cloning of Horus, and was assembling forces to end the abomination.
叛乱之后不久，阿巴顿放弃了军团；荷鲁斯的死让他心碎，他厌倦了战争，独自徘徊在恐惧之眼。与此同时，在恐惧之眼内部，叛徒军团之间很快爆发了内战。由于卷入了一场对抗帝皇之子的战争，荷鲁斯之子在梅勒姆的卢珀卡里奥斯要塞被摧毁，帝皇之子偷走了战帅荷鲁斯本人的尸体。最终，在法比乌斯·拜耳的帮助下，创造了许多荷鲁斯的克隆体，这一行为让荷鲁斯之子感到厌恶。随着荷鲁斯之子陷入绝望的境地，战帮领袖法库斯·凯博、伊斯坎达尔·卡扬和利奥万·乌克里斯决定寻找复仇之魂号和阿巴顿。在怀言者萨尔贡的帮助下，他们最终在恐惧之眼深处的厄琉息斯帷幕中找到了埋葬在前灵族世界艾斯’席亚拉的复仇之魂号。他们在里面找到了阿巴顿，阿巴顿透露他已经派遣萨贡把他们带到他身边。阿巴顿在得到克隆荷鲁斯的消息后重新振作起来，正在集结部队结束这一可憎的事情。
Abaddon after the fall of Maleum 马勒姆陷落后的阿巴顿
Gathering allies around himself, Abaddon moved on the Canticle City on the Daemon World of Harmony. During the vicious battle that followed, Abaddon took up the Talon of Horus and boarded the Emperor's Children Cruiser Fleshmarket which was commanded by Fabius Bile. Inside, they found horribly deformed mutated adolescent clones of all twenty Primarchs. After putting an end to these monstrosities, Abaddon and his forces next met the clone of Horus himself. After shattering Worldbreaker with the Talon of Horus, Abaddon impaled the clone of his gene-father. With his dying breath, Horus remembered Abaddon as his son, to which Abaddon replied he was not his son any longer.
阿巴顿在自己周围聚集了盟友，向恶魔世界和谐星的圣歌之城前进。在随后的激烈战斗中，阿巴顿拿起荷鲁斯之爪，登上了由法比乌斯·拜耳指挥的帝皇之子巡洋舰血肉交易号。在里面，他们发现了所有二十个原体可怕的畸形突变未成熟的克隆。在结束了这些怪物之后，阿巴顿和他的部队接下来遇到了荷鲁斯的克隆人。在用荷鲁斯之爪粉碎了破世者之后，阿巴顿刺穿了他基因之父的克隆人。荷鲁斯临死前想起阿巴顿是他的子嗣，阿巴顿回答说他不再是他的子嗣了。
Abaddon's forces subsequently purged the Emperor's Children from Harmony and proclaimed himself as the successor of Horus. He would begin a new war - a Long War. After his victory, Abaddon proceeded to purge the Black Legion of traitorous and self-serving elements, such as the Word Bearers champion Rynax the Unspoken, the Nurgle Chaos Lord Purgor the Putrescent, and the Slaaneshi Sorcerer Hexagalimere. Making bloody examples of these Renegades, Abaddon was able to cement his hold on power over the Legion.
阿巴顿的军队随后将帝皇之子从和谐星中净化，并宣布自己为荷鲁斯的继任者。他将开始一场新的战争 — 一场漫长的战争。获胜后，阿巴顿着手清除黑色军团中的叛徒和自私自利者，如怀言者冠军无言者瑞纳克斯、纳垢混沌领主腐烂者珀戈尔和色孽巫师赫克萨加利米尔。阿巴顿以这些叛徒为例，巩固了他对军团的权力。
Black Crusades 黑色远征
Now the unquestioned leader of the Sons of Horus, Abaddon eventually renamed them the Black Legion to expunge the name of Horus, who failed in his attempt to take over the Imperium. Studying what his predecessor had done, Abaddon realized that while he needed to court the Ruinous Powers as allies, he became determined to never become a thrall to their will as had been the case with Horus in the end. Abaddon slowly forged the Black Legion into a formidable fighting force with the help of his Ezekarion and fought against his primary rival, Death Guard Lord Thagus Daravek. While simultaneously dealing with Daravek with the help of Iskandar Khayon, Abaddon eventually returned at the head of a diabolic horde which ravaged entire systems around the Eye of Terror before the Imperium could muster the strength to halt it. During this first Black Crusade, Abaddon managed to slay his longtime enemy Sigismund in a duel after failing to sway him to his cause. Though badly wounded in the fight with Sigismund, Abaddon survived and made many bloody pacts with the infernal powers. At the end of the Crusade in the crypts below the Tower of Silence on Uralan, Abaddon recovered the Daemon Sword Drach'nyen. With the howling daemon blade in his fist Abaddon became nigh unstoppable. Whole cities were burned in sacrifice to the ever-hungry daemons of Chaos, and entire armies were torn apart by gibbering Warp entities. Abaddon's power swelled to inhuman proportions as the gods of Chaos rewarded him lavishly and he undertook acts of fiendish bravery which horrified those who stood against him. Abaddon continued to forcibly absorb old warbands of the Sons of Horus into his forces, most notably the Sons of the Eye. Many other exiled and damned members of the nine Traitor Legions were also allowed to join his ranks.
现在，作为荷鲁斯之子无可争议的领袖，阿巴顿最终将他们更名为黑色军团，以删除荷鲁斯的名字，荷鲁斯在取代帝国的尝试中失败了。在研究他的前任所做的事情时，阿巴顿意识到，虽然他需要以盟友的身份讨好毁灭大能，但他决心永远不会像荷鲁斯那样成为他们意志的奴隶。阿巴顿在他的伊泽凯里昂的帮助下，慢慢将黑色军团打造成一支强大的战斗力量，并与他的主要对手、死亡守卫领主塔古斯·达拉维克作战。在伊斯坎达尔·卡杨的帮助下，阿巴顿在与达拉维克打交道的同时，最终率领一个恶魔部落返回，该部落在帝国能够召集力量阻止恐惧之眼之前摧毁了整个星系。在第一次黑色远征中，阿巴顿在未能说服他支持自己的事业后，在决斗中杀死了他的宿敌西吉斯蒙德。尽管在与西吉斯蒙德的战斗中受了重伤，但阿巴顿幸存下来，并与炼狱之力签订了许多血腥的协议。远征结束时，阿巴顿在乌拉兰寂静之塔下的地穴中找到了魔剑德拉科’尼恩。阿巴顿手握咆哮的恶魔之刃，几乎势不可挡。整座城市都被烧毁，献给永远饥饿的混沌恶魔，整支军队被喋喋不休的亚空间实体撕裂。阿巴顿的力量膨胀到了非人的程度，因为混沌诸神慷慨地奖励了他，他采取了恶魔般的勇敢行为，吓坏了那些对抗他的人。阿巴顿继续强行吸收荷鲁斯之子的老战士加入他的部队，最著名的是眼之子。九个叛徒军团中的许多其他流亡和被诅咒的成员也被允许加入他的行列。
During the Gothic War Abaddon almost brought an entire sector to its knees. His fleets were augmented with a newly constructed flagship, known for good reason as the Planet Killer. Alongside this he somehow activated and gained control of the Blackstone Fortresses, mysterious constructions allegedly рre-dating the Imperium itself that combined to generate prodigious destructive firepower. Abaddon attacked while the sector was cut off from reinforcements by Warp storms and caused huge damage to the Imperial battlefleet, destroyed a number of planets and devastated many more. Only the intervention of the Eldar enabled Imperial forces to stop the Chaos fleet.
在哥特战争期间，阿巴顿几乎将整个地区夷为平地。他的舰队增加了一艘新建造的旗舰，有充分的理由被称为行星杀手。与此同时，他以某种方式激活并控制了黑石要塞，据称，神秘的建筑再现了帝国本身的历史，这些建筑结合在一起产生了巨大的破坏性火力。阿巴顿在该区域被亚空间风暴切断增援的同时发动了袭击，对帝国战列舰队造成了巨大破坏，摧毁了许多行星，并摧毁了更多的行星。只有灵族的干预使帝国军队能够阻止混沌舰队。
In his most recent assault, the 13th Black Crusade, Abaddon managed to gain a foothold in the Cadian Gate, planning to extend the Eye of Terror to encompass even Terra in a plan known as The Crimson Path. Abaddon's forces were able to gain a foothold on Cadia to the point where only a single Imperial bastion, Kasr Kraf, remained. After the vicious Battle of the Elysion Fields, Kasr Kraf fell and Abaddon moved onto the last stage of his plan: destroying the Cadian Pylons. In the final battle beneath Cadia's surface Abaddon personally clashed with a variety of foes including Saint Celestine, the Geminae Superia, Inquisitor Greyfax, Orven Highfell, and Ursarkar E. Creed for control of the Pylons. Abaddon bested them all and managed to defeat Celestine who had become depowered by the activation of Cadia's pylons. However despite the loss of an arm, Creed distracted Abaddon long enough for Celestine to impale him from behind with her sword. Horribly wounded, Abaddon was forced to teleport back to the Vengeful Spirit.
在最近的一次进攻中，即第13次黑色远征，阿巴顿设法在卡迪亚之门站稳脚跟，计划在一项名为“深红之路”的计划中将恐惧之眼扩大到甚至包括泰拉。阿巴顿的部队能够在卡迪亚站稳脚跟，直到只剩下一个帝国堡垒卡斯尔·克拉夫。在邪恶的极乐世界之战之后，卡斯尔·克拉夫陷落，阿巴顿进入了他计划的最后阶段：摧毁卡迪亚方尖塔。在卡迪亚地表下的最后一场战斗中，阿巴顿亲自与各种敌人发生冲突，包括圣塞勒斯汀、超凡双子、检察官格雷法克斯、奥尔文.高落和乌萨卡·E·克里德，以控制晶塔。阿巴顿击败了他们所有人，并设法击败了塞勒斯汀，塞勒斯汀因卡迪亚方尖塔的激活而失去了力量。然而，尽管失去了一只手臂，克里德还是让阿巴顿分心了足够长的时间，塞勒斯汀用她的剑从后面刺穿了他。阿巴顿身受重伤，被迫传送回复仇之魂号。
Abaddon the Despoiler 掠夺者阿巴顿
But despite his wounds Abaddon was able to finish off Cadia by redirecting the debris of the Blackstone Fortress Will of Eternity into its surface. The impact destabilized the Pylons, and Cadia was sucked into the Warp. Despite the final destruction of Cadia, Abaddon became enraged when he learned from Zaraphiston that the Magos Belisarius Cawl had escaped with a relic of profound importance to Kalisus. Abaddon pursued Cawl and the remaining Imperial survivors to the world, but his prize was denied to him by the Eldar, who aided the Imperials and forced him to withdraw.
但尽管受伤，阿巴顿还是通过将黑石要塞永恒意志号的残骸重新定向到其表面，终结了卡迪亚。撞击破坏了方尖塔的稳定，卡迪亚被卷入了亚空间。尽管卡迪亚最终被摧毁，但当阿巴顿从扎拉菲斯顿那里得知贤者贝利萨留·考尔带着对卡利苏斯具有深远意义的圣物逃跑时，他变得非常愤怒。阿巴顿追捕考尔和剩下的帝国幸存者，但他的战利品被灵族拒绝给予了，灵族帮助帝国并迫使他撤军。
Vigilus 警戒星
Abaddon later reemerged at the head of a massive Chaos armada to invade Vigilus. His objective was to destroy the planet's Blackstone deposits and permanently seal the Nachmund Gauntlet, dooming the Imperium Nihilus. After acquiring the ancient weapon known as the Voidclaw to decimate much of Vigilus' surface, Abaddon's victory seemed certain. However, he was goaded by Imperial Commander Marneus Calgar into a duel. Though he bested Calgar in the battle and nearly slew him, the Ultramarines Chapter Master had used the distraction to cripple the Vengeful Spirit with an allied Eldar vessel loaded with Deathstrike Missiles. Faced with slaying Calgar or saving his prized flagship, Abaddon teleported away from Vigilus and left the warzone when the Vengeful Spirit made an emergency transition into the Warp. Abaddon was able to rapidly locate the Vengeful Spirit and launched a boarding operation to reclaim it. Onboard he found hundreds of his own Chaos Space Marines who had lost contact with their Warmaster battling for supremacy. Abaddon then swept across the vessel, restoring order and slaying any who opposed his will. He then took his seat in Lupercal's Court and planned his next move.
阿巴顿后来再次率领庞大的混沌舰队入侵警戒星。他的目标是摧毁星球上的黑石矿床，并永久封上纳克蒙德走廊，毁灭帝国暗面。在获得了被称为“虚空爪”的古代武器以摧毁警戒线的大部分地表后，阿巴顿的胜利似乎是肯定的。然而，他被帝国指挥官马涅乌斯·卡尔加怂恿进行决斗。尽管他在战斗中击败了卡尔加，差点把他杀死，但这位极限战士的战团长利用这种分心，用一艘装载着死亡直击导弹的灵族盟军飞船削弱了复仇之魂号。面对杀死卡尔加或拯救他珍贵的旗舰，阿巴顿在复仇之魂号紧急回避到亚空间时，从警戒线传送出去并离开了战区。阿巴顿能够迅速找到复仇之魂号，并发起跳帮行动夺回它。在船上，他发现了数百名自己的混沌星际战士队员，他们与战帅失去了联系，正在争夺霸权。阿巴顿随后横扫船只，恢复秩序，杀死任何反对他的人。然后，他在卢佩卡尔王庭就座，并计划下一步行动。

Arks of Omen 噩兆方舟
Months later, as Abaddon oversaw continued repairs to the Vengeful Spirit, he was contacted by the Daemon Vashtorr and entered into an alliance with the creature after learning of an ancient Old Ones device known as The Weapon. Together, the two constructed great Space Hulk weapons known as Arks of Omen, beginning a new war across the galaxy in an effort to find the Key-Fragments to the weapon.
几个月后，当阿巴顿监督复仇之魂号的持续维修时，他被恶魔瓦什托尔联系，并在得知一种名为“武器”的古老旧势力装置后与该生物结盟。两人一起建造了被称为“噩兆方舟”的巨大太空废船武器，在整个银河系开始了一场新的战争，试图找到武器的关键碎片。
At the conclusion of the campaign aboard Vengeful Spirit, Abaddon directly led the Black Legion against Dark Angels and Unforgiven forces during the Battle of Idolatros. Though Imperial forces emerged largely militarily victorious and the Primarch Lion El'Jonson returned, Vashtorr succeeded in completing The Key and now sought for The Lock, the vault which held The Weapon.
在复仇之魂号战役结束时，阿巴顿在盲信星之战中直接领导黑色军团对抗黑暗天使和不可饶恕者的部队。尽管帝国军队在很大程度上取得了军事胜利，原体莱昂·艾尔庄森也回来了，但瓦什托尔成功地完成了“钥匙”，现在他正在寻找装有“武器”的金库—“锁”。
Appearance, Abilities, and Wargear 外貌、能力和战备
Imposing in almost every way, Abaddon possessed a particularly deep voice, was taller, stronger and bulkier than the average Space Marine, and wore his long black hair in a strikingly tall topknot when not using a helmet. He had similar facial features to those of Horus, particularly the widely spaced eyes and long, straight nose. He often wore a large black wolf-pelt over his Power Armour, to which he also attached a cloak upon occasion. Abaddon possessed both a suit of power armour and suit of Terminator Armour, the former being painted in the standard colours of his Legion, while the latter was primarily black in colouration. This marked him out as a member of the 1st Company elite, all of whom wore black armour.
阿巴顿几乎在各个方面都很有魅力，他的声音特别低沉，比普通的星际战士更高、更强壮、更庞大，不戴头盔时，他把长长的黑发梳成一个非常高的发髻。他的面部特征与荷鲁斯相似，尤其是眼睛间隔很宽，鼻子又长又直。他经常在他的动力盔甲上披上一块大黑狼皮，偶尔还会在盔甲上披一件斗篷。阿巴顿拥有一套动力盔甲和一套终结者盔甲，前者被涂成他军团的标准颜色，而后者主要是黑色的。这使他成为第一连队精英的一员，他们都穿着黑色盔甲。
Abaddon the Despoiler 掠夺者阿巴顿
Indeed, Abaddon's personal unit was the black-armoured Justaerin Terminator Squad, but he normally left command of it to Captain Falkus Kibre. His fellow Captain, Horus Aximand quipped that this was because Abaddon was actually too big to fit inside a Terminator suit. Towards the end of the Great Crusade, Abaddon would only be seen in his black Terminator garb.
事实上，阿巴顿的个人部队是黑色装甲的加斯塔林终结者小队，但他通常将指挥权交给法库斯·凯博连长。他的同伴荷鲁斯·阿西曼德连长打趣道，这是因为阿巴顿实际上太大了，终结者套装装不下。在大远征接近尾声时，阿巴顿只会穿着黑色的终结者套装。
Since the Heresy, Abaddon has wielded two of the most potent Chaos weapons in the galaxy: the Talon of Horus, a combined storm bolter and Lightning Claw, formerly possessed by Horus himself, and the daemon sword Drach'nyen. While Abaddon can call upon the powers of Chaos in battle, he is not fully corrupted by them and fiercely maintains his perceived independence from the Ruinous Powers. After the Heresy but before assuming leadership of the Black Legion Abaddon stared into the depths of the Astronomican for an extended period. The experience permanently turned his eyes gold, a result of the Emperor's power.
自叛乱以来，阿巴顿已经使用了银河系中最强大的两种混沌武器：荷鲁斯之爪，一种结合了风暴爆矢枪和闪电爪的武器，以前由荷鲁斯拥有，以及魔剑德拉科’尼恩。虽然阿巴顿可以在战斗中召唤混沌的力量，但他并没有完全被它们腐化，而是强烈地保持了他对毁灭力量的独立性。在叛乱之后，但在担任黑色军团领袖之前，阿巴顿长时间凝视着星炬的深处。这段经历使他的眼睛永远变成了金色，这是帝皇之力的结果。
Abaddon 阿巴顿
During his centuries of exile, Abaddon visited each of the six Daemon Primarchs, attempting to receive aid from each.
在他流亡的几个世纪里，阿巴顿拜访了六位恶魔原体中的每一位，试图得到每一位的援助。
From Angron he gained the favor of Khorne by fighting the Primarch's daemonic champions on Goreswirl.
他在戈雷斯维尔与原体的恶魔冠军作战，从安格隆那里赢得了恐虐的青睐。
From Mortarion, he earned the favor of Nurgle in exchange for the Chaos artifact known as the Hand of Darkness, which the Lord of the Death Guard sought to use to craft a Zombie Plague.
从莫塔里安那里，他赢得了纳垢的青睐，以换取被称为黑暗之手的混沌神器，死亡守卫原体试图用它来制作行尸瘟疫。
Though Magnus the Red refused to meet with him, Abaddon still gained the blessing of Tzeentch in exchange for the Eye of Night, the sightless remnant of the Stone God. He then turned to Ahriman, who in turn pledged the services of his Rubric Marines to the Despoiler's cause.
虽然赤红之马格努斯拒绝与他见面，但阿巴顿仍然获得了奸奇的祝福，以换取午夜之眼，石神盲余。然后，他转向阿里曼，阿里曼又承诺将他的红字战士服务于掠夺者的事业。
From Fulgrim, the Despoiler was given the favor of Slaanesh in exchange for a Pythosian Psyker, offered as an unblemished vessel to contain the avatar of Slaanesh.
从福格瑞姆所在，掠夺者得到了色孽的青睐，以换取一个派索斯灵能者，作为一个无瑕的容器来容纳色孽化身。
From Lorgar, the Warmaster learned the rare art of Daemonancy. Lorgar proved willing to aid Abaddon due to his hatred of the Adeptus Ministorum.
战帅从珞珈那里学到了罕见的唤魔术。事实证明，由于阿巴顿憎恨国教教会，珞珈愿意帮助他。
From Perturabo, Abaddon was given vast Daemon Engines produced deep within the Eye of Terror. The Iron Warriors proved eager to test these weapons against the renowned defenses of Cadia.
从佩图拉博，阿巴顿获得了在恐惧之眼深处生产的巨大恶魔引擎。事实证明，钢铁勇士渴望在卡迪亚著名的防御工事中测试这些武器。
