Character Description
He attempts by setup to have Daniel kill his still living sister and her young son, Matt but underestimates how hard it would be to goad his Hellspawn into the murder of his only remaining family. Daniel consequently saves his sister, Madrid Llanso, and Matt, killing a Minor demon named Desiccator. Phlegethonyarre then calls forth his servant Abaddon (the angel of the bottomless pit), and commands him to set up Spawn so that he would be forced to kill Madrid Llanso and/or her son.
The Anti-Pope, an apparently still alive servant of Satan who leads the "Spiritual" forces of Hell's army on Earth, summons forth another named demon (Bune) to attack a human survivor encampment where Madrid and Matt find refuge. The Anti-Pope also sends in a freshly risen necro zombie to infiltrate the camp and pass as human. Spawn battles and with a minor use of his Darklight power saves the human encampment, along with Madrid Llanso and her son, and kills Bune. Matt is kidnapped by the necro zombie and is taken to 'The Tower', where Abaddon awaits Spawn. Spawn arrives and is given a choice to watch as Matt would be "Baptized" (disembowelled and eviscerated, and into the wound is poured worms, roaches, lice, fleas, grubs, spiders, before the person is 'prayed' over, infused with darklight and sewn back up to rise as the undead) or kill him and release his soul to heaven (though this is probably a lie).
Spawn refuses and saves Matt. Battling Abaddon, he again defies Phlegethonyarre and uses his necro darklight energy to destroy the tower, and apparently Abaddon, in a huge blast.

Famous quotes containing the words character and/or description:
“They aroused me to a determination to understand more fully the position of women, and the character of those men who talk so much of the need of our being “protected”Mremoving from us, meanwhile, what are often the very weapons of our defence [sic], occupations, and proper and encouraging remuneration.”
—Harriot K. Hunt (1805–1875)
“The next Augustan age will dawn on the other side of the Atlantic. There will, perhaps, be a Thucydides at Boston, a Xenophon at New York, and, in time, a Virgil at Mexico, and a Newton at Peru. At last, some curious traveller from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St Paul’s, like the editions of Balbec and Palmyra.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
