Biography

History

Vector offered a blood sacrifice to Abyss in order to aide in the destruction of the United Lands of the Poseidon Ocean. Merag offered herself as a sacrifice afterwards to revive another god and purify Abyss of Vector's control.

Later, during Nasch's attack on Vector's land, Abyss was shown with Nasch, helping him fight Vector's army without his own. He was Summoned in Nasch and Vector's Shadow Game.

Before Nasch and Merag died as Barians, Abyss made a contract with them and had them continue to live in the human world as humans once more, with the names "Reginald Kastle" and "Rio Kastle".

Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL

When the Different Dimension Airship neared the undersea ruins, Abyss called out to Rio Kastle, who was on-board. He was eventually able to influence her enough to get her to jump off the ship. Shark, Yuma Tsukumo and Astral followed. They tracked Rio to the temple and were led through a maze, where they were separated. Shark reached the heart of the temple, where he found Abyss possessing Rio. Abyss claimed that he and Shark were destined to fight and urged Shark to "awaken", as he would inherit Abyss' power. Shark agreed to Duel and Abyss gained a great advantage through "Gorgonic Guardian". He proceeded to show Shark visions of his past life, when he was the king of the United Lands of the Poseidon Ocean

Abyss insisted that just as his past life lost his sister, he would lose her here too, due to the weakness in his heart. Ceasing his control over Rio, she fell a great distance, but was caught by Yuma. Abyss then entrusted the second "Legendary Number" tied to the ruins to Shark and told him to defeat him and reclaim his memories as the king who led the world. After his defeat, Abyss admitted to Shark that he was following orders from his past life to restore his former memories before disappearing, leaving his "Number" card to Shark.
