Abyss

If you're looking for the dimension, see Abyss (Dimension).
Milo Diefenbach, better known as Abyss is a mutant supervillain from The Saviors of Sunset City. He is best known for working as a hired gun to help with The Operator's scheme. 
== Personality ==
All brawn and no brains, Abyss is a hired criminal more so out of his own ignorance rather than outright malice. He enjoys what he does, but he doesn't entirely get what he's doing. He loves his brother to pieces, as well as birds, though absolutely despises cats for obvious reasons. He has trouble articulating his thoughts, and as such lacks proficient social skills. He is insecure about his stupidity, and will fly into a rage upon being called out on it.
== History ==
=== Origin Story ===
Milo and Brennan Diefenbach were outcast almost immediately as children, their father abandoning them as soon as he saw their ugly mugs, of which got under Milo's skin especially. Their mother raised them until some thugs robbed their home, killing her in the process. Unknowingly, the thugs inspired the boys to become criminals, and soon it was them and them alone out in the harsh world. Years later, they became hired guns, with Milo being the muscle. Being able to take obscene amounts of gunfire and able to hit like a truck helped out on heists, and this caught the eye of Dollface, who hired them as permanent installations.
Prior to the campaign, a heist busted by Nightwalker caused Trench to be arrested, and, as such, caused Milo great anger at the superhero. Having to go it alone as the only superpowered mook was hard, but he had to do it anyway.
=== The Saviors of Sunset City ===
On the call of Dollface, Abyss was tasked with raiding a Monk Enterprises warehouse with help of The Aces to steal steel beams for The Operator's machine. However, he was not expecting Owlet to be joined by Terraformer, The Alchemist, and Kickbutt to stop them. Alchemist through a potion at him that would make a loud noise, barely fazing the brute. Terraformer summoned golems to fight him, with Owlet completely missing his boomerangs. The brute was brought down by Alchemist throwing a sticky potion and lighting it on fire, cooking him as Owlet dealt the final blow. Dropping a tape recorder as he fell, Abyss was quickly incarcerated.
