Abyssals were made from the 150 Solar shards the Deathlords managed to keep. They're not so much the Chosen of Death as the Chosen of Murder. The Neverborn designed them to destroy the world no matter what - with failsafes built in just in case they have a change of heart and start trying to save it. Don't wanna kill people? Yes you do. You have charms like Killing Words Technique, which lets you give people multiple organ failure if they don't do as you say. Going to be lame and use your powers to help people? Then you get hit with something called Resonance, which at best kills all the grass where you walk and at worst straight-up incinerates your wife and kids.
You can redeem yourself, of course, which will probably mean turning yourself back into a Solar. This has advantages (like being able to train soldiers without turning them into sociopaths) and disadvantages (like forgetting how to cut someone's soul out with a butter knife).
