Cixyron1 is a harbinger (a daemonic demigod from Abaddon who can grant divine magic)2 who resembles a metallic, raven-headed skeleton crackling with electricity.34

Followers

Some of Cixyron's followers mastered ways to harvest and absorb the matter of Abaddon itself, and further learned to infuse it into firearm ammunition. Such followers are known as planar rifters, although the practices and methods have also spread to others who do not share the same daemonic faith.5

In Golarion, many of Cixyron's followers prowl the Mana Wastes for advanced weaponry, scouring the blasted land in servitude of their master. They occasionally attack inventors in Alkenstar and Dongun Hold to acquire these weapons. They also favour the use of deadly poison, viewing it as an homage to the harbinger's domain over poisonous metals.67 Some of these followers are known as toxic snipers.8
