Abigail Crysteffor/History

Abigail Crysteffor spent her first five years in Gravehold. Her parents were Herobrine, a miner who hid his lightning powers from his magic–hating village, and Bella, a secret half-Netherkin and member of a noble Nether family. When Herobrine was found out, the townspeople tried to execute him and hanged Bella. Taking Abigail, Bella's sister Vanessa fled to the Nether and left Abigail in Glacierford in the Overworld, visiting her periodically. She taught her to use the family's Nether Star.
In the village, Abigail lived a peaceful life, learning to shoot a bow and fight with a spear. She befriended and eventually fell in love with a boy named Rain. When she was 19, Herobrine attacked the village. His sorrow and rage had driven him mad. Raising an undead army, he had waged war on all humans for over a decade and pushed them to near-extinction. Rain turned into a zombie and Abigail was killed. Her body was found by Naeus, a Nether general who revived her and took her under his wing in the Nether. Abigail learned that she was the Nether Princess, but some challenged her birthright because of her human ancestry and life in the Overworld. Naeus made her use the Nether Star, which turned her into a ruthless and unfeeling weapon, to slay her challengers.
As princess, Abigail protected the , had clairvoyant dreams about Stella, struck a truce with the Netherbane and helped their leader slay Lance, and fought in the Battle for Glacierford. By then, Naeus and the Nether had permanently weaponized her under the Nether Star's influence; she fought with Rain, who had been resurrected by the opposing side, but did not recognize him. In revenge for corrupting her, Rain killed the Pig King but was forced to kill the Princess as well. With no royal heir, the Nether plunged into a civil war which saw Naeus become king.
When Abigail was resurrected a second time, the three dimensions were in a destructive war started by Naeus. Feeling used by the , which had controlled her and stripped her of her rationality with the Nether Star, she helped the Piglins retain their independence. Abigail then started the against Naeus.
==Story==
=== Background ===
Abigail Crysteffor is the daughter of Herobrine and Bella Crysteffor. Her aunt, Vanessa Crysteffor had strong enough ties that she came in contact with the Royal Nether Star, which became a family heirloom. 
Abigail was raised as a human in Glacierford - a village in the Overworld - with her childhood friend Rain. Her aunt passed down the Royal Nether Star to her during her younger years, with only the Crysteffors and Rain being aware of its existence. As a teenager, Abigail trained with Rain using polearms and often bested him, likely aiding her later proficiency with the Ruby Thorn. The two later became lovers under unknown circumstances, befriending other villagers such as Robin, Camyo and Zach.

=== Outbreak at Glacierford ===
Episodes Featured: The Struggle · 1 of a Kind · Cold as Ice
One day, Abigail rushed to Rain, frantically informing him of the bite fellow villager Oscar received from a zombie attack. However, Oscar would be transformed and begin a mass infection of Glacierford, with Kyle (a village protector) sacrificing his life to buy the group time unknowingly. That night, she, Rain and their friends fended off the infected before escaping to the Frostbourne Tundra, but were pursued by Herobrine and his ruthless Undead army. Robin, Zach and Camyo were infected the next night, as Abigail held off zombies with her bow and Rain dueled with Herobrine.
As they attempted to escape using a bridge, a Creeper blew the bridge up from between them. Landing on opposite sides, Abigail was unable to do anything as Rain was surrounded by zombies. She tearfully froze as Rain was infected, and whilst in that state, she was shot down by a skeleton.
=== First Revival ===
====Rise to the Throne====
Somehow alerted to her death, Naeus would find Abigail and bring her to the Nether, where she was revived. Sometime later, he greets the changed girl, scarred by death but willing to use her second chance to allow her 'fiery passion [to] blaze the Nether Reaches'. Naeus informs her the army considered her unfit to command the Nether Horde due to her humanity, and informed her that the challengers to the throne awaited her in the arena. She tried somewhat hastily to disprove her weakness, however, Naeus was quick to remind her of the Royal Star, and her insufficient lack of Nether-based training. She would concede and accept his training proposal, after affirming her position as the heir.
After a disastrous meeting with King Glutton - in which the Wither Knight would humiliate her by shoving her and then eventually throwing her across the halls - she would escape to a cliffside near the Nether Fort to recollect her thoughts. Naeus would find her, gifting her the Ruby Thorn, and assuring her wordlessly that he would do his best to train her. Naeus would train her over the next few months in a series of sparring matches, eventually getting her to a stage where he could be defeated. Absorbing the Star, she would defeat three of the challengers, unlocking the Star's power fully in the bloodshed to follow. The Wither Knight would enter the arena after and engage her in battle, losing the very arm that threw her away in an act of karma. As he lay on the ground as she had once done, Abigail would meet him with a swift, life ending stab to the neck.
==== Tales of the Netherbane ====
Episodes Featured: Nightmares · Poison
After her ascendance, Abigail was charged as a guardian/liason to Porkshire, the Piglin King, and in turn acting as protector of the Piglin Kingdom. On one of her meetings, she would be caught up in Ciara's massacre, dueling the Cutthroat to protect the Porkshire and the remaining Piglings. Despite being able to kill Ciara, she was still superficially wounded, and would in turn be attacked by Kane from behind. A minor confrontation leads her to disarm Kane, but before she can kill him, he strikes a deal: To spare Ciara, he would show her to Lance, the Rogue End Mage, who was allegedly preparing to overthrow the Nether Royalty. After some hesitance due to the surprise at his knowledge, Abigail would accept.
As night falls, she would meet with Kane at the Netherbane Tavern, where they would head for the Swamp Lands. Encountering and defeating the Man-Dragon along the way, they would find the Swamp Castle and enter the front gate, only to be trapped inside and seperated by Lance himself. Abigail would be forced to fight Lance alone, though she would struggle against his magic tricks even with the Star active. However, she would eventually figure out his teleportation pattern, thus she was able to impale him with the Ruby Thorn, forcing the mage to send them both into her dream world. Disoriented, she would be caught off-guard by Lance posing as Rain, and would be forced to retreat into her dreamscape.
As things became dire, Kane would appear - having stabbed himself with an arrow tipped with poison from Lance's Ender Frog to enter - and proceed to distract Lance in a duel. Finding the bow and arrows Kane had given to her in the real world, she was able to shoot Lance in the chest, forcing the mage to pull out a Totem of Undying. However, she would simply shoot it out of his hand, allowing Kane to tackle and kill him via blunt-force trauma.
With Lance seemingly killed for good, Abigail would warn Kane the subject of her premonitory dreams; a feral demon originating from the Coven, who would endanger all realms. As a final request, she requests him to kill her, to which he agrees after some hesitance. She would then leave, and continue her life in the Nether.
It can be assumed that following this scenario, the Nether Star would use her grief over Rain's 'death' to corrupt her completely, thus "killing" Abigail's true spirit in a way.
==== Battle for Glacierford ====
Episodes Featured: We Are the Danger
After the Star's corruption of the Princess, the Undead King and her indirect killer - Herobrine - would approach the Horde for aide against the Frostbourne. She would partake in the Battle for Glacierford's second half, killing off Iron Golems to weaken Frostbourne-Ender Watcher forces on the command of Glutton, leading to her encounter with a shocked Rain. Unable to recognize him thanks to the corruption of her spirit, she would teleport and kick him away, starting a fight. Rain dodged and blocked her attacks before freezing her to the ground, and fleeing the area. Despite her predicament, she would break free, and the Horde-Undead alliance would ultimately take back her former home, driving out the Frostbourne.
=====Demise=====
Episodes Featured: Just So You Know
Flashbacks with Rain show several photos and their history, motivating his desire for revenge.
The Nether Princess would not appear herself until after King Glutton and Scorch were killed, furious at what Rain had done. She would proceed to attack Rain with the intent to kill, gaining the upper hand due to his extensive injuries from the skirmish, even stabbing him through the chest. However, Rain would use this as opportunity to stab the Nether Princess through the neck, killing her and letting himself bleed out, thus ending the Nether Royal Family and shattering the Horde into Civil War.
=== Between Revivals ===
====Hard Pill to Swallow====
Hard Pill to Swallow would reveal Abigail's body was kept in the Wither Tower, safeguarded by Naeus, who wishes to use the Royal Star to aid in ending the Nether Civil War. Accompanied by Kralos and several Wither Skeletons, Naeus would throw her body into the lava below, gaining the Royal Star and snuffing out any chance for her revival.
This act in turn would presumably free her spirit from the Royal Nether Star.
====Eternal====
Abigail - referred to as the Nether Princess - was shortly mentioned by Ciara in Eternal, when Ciara expresses how easier it will be to kill Porkshire without her in the way.
====Clear Skies====
Abigail - again refered to as the Nether Princess - was a topic of conversation between Rain and Ciara in the Frostbourne Tavern, after Ciara heard gossip about their relationship. Although Ciara agitated the Dragon Tamer, he admitted that he hadn't yet moved on and felt immense guilt ever after. Ciara advised him to revisit his past memories with her and clear his conscience in order to find peace; something Rain began doing whilst walking through Glacierford.
He would succeed in finally letting her go after a day of reflection, thus moving on.
=== Final Revival ===
Netherkin do not burn in fire or lava. Naeus 'stashed her in lava to be revived in the future'. To keep her body away from Naeus, Kane hired the piglin trackers Durkkol the Hoarder and Baator Basaltwalker to find and give it to him. While transporting Abigail across the lake by strider, Baator explained to his brother, Durkkol, that it would take something 'like the combined energy of a nether star and an end crystal just to get her heart beating again.' Fortuitously, a battle between a human and a Wither Angel over an end crystal resulted in the Wither Angel dying, and the nether star within her being released and converging with the crystal, causing a massive shock wave across the Nether. When the shock wave passed through the lake, Abigail was resurrected. 
The piglin brothers stopped to tell her what had happened after she died: Naeus, after becoming king, had conquered New Dragonspire and started a war by invading the Overworld. He had also conquered independent Nether kingdoms and imperial loyalists had deposed the Piglin Kingdom's child king, Hamlett. Durkkol and Baator asked her to lead the failing Freedom Fighters, believing that their defender's reappearance would give them the hope they need to win the Piglin Civil War. 'Done being treated like a weapon', Abigail went to the rebel base with Durkkol and Baator and was immediately greeted with awe and reverence. A piglin rushed to hand her a new weapon: a makeshift glaive, two golden blades attacked to either end of a stick. 
Abigail helped Urgrakk, the defector who founded the Freedom Fighters, lead a successful attack to retake a bastion and slay Guktark, the wither-pig super-soldier. She then led the attack to take back the Piglin Castle and defeated Aurora Goldfist, the loyalist leader, with her father's lightning powers. Afterwards, the Freedom Fighters reinstated King Hamlett, who vowed to help the rebels, and Abigail became the leader of the . 
Kane met with Durkkol and Baator and angrily inquired as to why they had not delivered Abigail's body yet. When they took him to her, Abigail was surprised, while Kane was unexpectedly filled with dread, screaming that, 'It's too soon!'
