Description
Abraxas, also known as the triple prince, appears as a pot-belly demon with a large, cock-like head, and two snakes in place of his lower legs. He is often seen carrying his whip, as well as some magical jewelry about him. Any weapon he carries does triple-base damage (not triple the strength or magical bonus damage). For example, his whip is a whip of laceration (+1) that does 3-6/3 pts dmg in his hands, but 1-3/1 pt in any other creatures' hand. (The whip of laceration mimics the effects of a sword of wounding, and on a natural hit of '20', severs a miscellaneous appendage). He often carries protective devices (his jewelry) that may easily bring his armor class down to -10. In melee, he may hit with a weapon and let his legs bite (save vs. poison or die). If without a weapon, then he may still pommel for 3-12 pts dmg.
He also has a special power, similar to Pazuzues' converting good characters into evil (although not as powerful). Anyone reciting a special incantation in Abraxas' presence (or if it can be heard by the demon), (you know...abracadabra, abracadabr, abracadab, etc.) may ask the demon a favor or service. The demon is not required to perform the service, although if he does, then the creature receiving the demon's favor must perform a service (or give up something) in return. The recitation of the verse forces the individual to perform the service if and only if Abraxas had done a service for the individual (barring magic resistance or permanent anti-magic shells, also can be dispelled by a lesser or greater god, or by a mage of at least 20th-level mastery, although doing so will bring the wrath of this god). The nature of the service depends directly on the requests that the individual initially made upon Abraxas. For example, if a character wanted a limb restored, Abraxas may require the character, at a later date, to destroy a rival demon lord (Abraxas' services don't come cheap). Here is the guide (by spell level) of what may be required of an individual if he/she requests something from Abraxas:
| Spell Level | Service Required |
|---|---|
| 1st-2nd level | give up some gold or minor magic item(s) |
| 3rd-4th level | give up large amounts of gold or major magic item(s) destroy a rival major demon find a very rare herb, or animal for him (Abraxas is an alchemist as well as a fine cook) |
| 5th-6th level | destroy an entity of good, such as a kirin find several very rare herbs for him destroy a rival unique demon, powerful rival of good find a lost, major magic item for him |
| 7th level+ | give up unique item or destroy a rival demon lord, planatar, serve as his vassal for a year and a day |
Some of these requests, will obviously, change the characters alignment by at least one step (the consequences of bargaining with a demon).
Abraxas may also use any of the following spell-like powers, at 20th-level ability, once per round, at will: neutralize poison, dispel magic, continual darkness, teleport (no error), and may summon 1-3 type IV demons (with a 100% chance of the gate opening). He also has the powers of a 15th-level cleric (wis: 20).
