And while he was married to ALL of his wives (he had MULTIPLE families) I couldn't fit all the siblings on here.
Abbot has 13 siblings. He's the third oldest. Clarence is of importance because he actually SHOWS UP later in the arks which causes Abbot to crash the EVERLIVING FUCK out bc he saw his BROTHER in Nerva's ranks and was like "Scuse me, what the FUCK!!"
Yup, if Abbot wasn't albino he would be ginger! All of his (13 half) siblings are ginger and his son Brutus is! Abbot having to explain to Rockwell that he gets it from him *sob*

I based him, Nerva and Rockwell's relationship on this thing called the Flesh, Machine, Divine.
Nerva is the flesh, Rockwell is the Divine, and Abbot is the machine. Why, you ask, is Abbot a machine?
I wanted to give him his own form of corruption. In Aberration, his DNA allows him to safely go into the red zone (it does give him sickness but no damage, I can also draw his DNA!) As such, he stayed there and drank from the pink water which had microscopic levels of Edmundium.
See, he consumed small amounts SLOWLY. Allowing his body to adapt, since he already had it in his cells. This gave him a type of genetic mutation I call "Genus Chamelus." Which means "Changing Genes." This makes his genetic structure soft due to the casing and the molecules becoming lubricated from the element in a gel like form.
When he was impregnated with a reaper, the reapers as I mentioned before in my au, change their genes depending on the person so their immune system accepts the embryo. Reapers ALSO contain Genus Chamelus due to long term evolution in the red zone. As such, reaper kings on the surface don't have his gene which is why they don't reproduce sexually.
Since Abbot and his twins had these genetics, they in a way, TRADED genes. Making the reapers 2.8% Sapius NecroDeus, and Abbot becoming 2.8% REAPER. These genes allowed him to develop hard keratin on the surface of the skin (only in the feet, ears and hands/distal areas) which blackened over time like a reaper. This also allowed him to possess the genetics that grant immunity to radioactive decay like a reaper.
So while Rockwell did become a "God" in a sense, he technically did it the wrong way.
1. He did not possess the Genus Chamelus
2. He was not Sapius NecroDeus
3. He didn't SLOWLY introduce himself to the element.
This means his system was NOT ready to accept the Edmundium, this causing a less than appealing transformation. Abbot on the other hand wouldn't become a monstrous being but rather it gives him a way to adapt to environments when he has he DNA of another organism within an area where it can be absorbed.
Where's this all going?
In the Genesis simulation controlled by Rockwell, let's say Rockwell is actually to invested in the Genesis 2 SHIP to handle it. So he gives Abbot admin access to the simulation as he pleases. Notice how I said admin? Abbot begins to adapt the AI the same way he would. Because he spends HOURS each day in the simulation (against what Rockwell advises) he begins to turn INTO the machine. Only in the simulation of course, though. Because Abbot isn't getting the desired result, as well as his slowly decaying sanity from the conditions he's been through, Abbot is very aggressive. (Remember when I said I'd reference the Neebs Cast in Abbot's Genesis?)
As Abbot selected his five humans to experiment on, Abbot essentially made them immortal. He used his weapon he made, (the red gun), to terminate any coding he wanted gone and summoned new ones. These five people were of BASE stats, what he craved. Since his form in genesis contained long winding wires, he was referred to as the viper. Which correlates when the survivor and HLNA defeat him in place of Rockwell. His form is a giant snake. Similar to he corrupted survivor texture but all of the pieces are WHITE. This ofc was his "corruption" as he overindulges in his addiction to the machinery.
Sound familiar? It should, Abbot in genesis 1 is meant to represent Allied Mastercomputer, as the five people tell HLNA they were trapped with Abbot for CENTURIES.
In the Island, many will face a fight with the Overseer. An implant that protects the ascension into scorched earth. However, Abbot is the Desired Genus with the element composition, which is able to TRICK the systems in place into thinking he is the same thing as the Overseer Boss.
He is then given a message that says. "Access Granted, Administrative Permissions Deployed." Which means he didn't have to die, or fight to go into SE. And since his rage towards Rockwell's betrayal was still WHITE HOT, he gladly went.
But there's something missing. WHY is Abbot going insane? It can't just be the betrayal, loss and conditions he's been set in.
Y'know how I said he didn't have to fight the Overseer? And admin permissions were given? Y'know how in Bob's tales he says "It wasn't comforting to know I wasn't the original Bob."? Abbot saw his "Specimen" in a way. As he looked, he saw rows. Rows. Rows of HIM. Then it clicks. The spots of memory he loses? The faces he can't remember? He begins to lose it. Is he even real? Who is he? Does he EXIST? Then ironically the Allied Mastercomputer ideology comes in and he's losing his mind.
Because he's been isolated through SE and AB, this FESTERS. It grows. His hatred for the flesh grows.
Why is it, that Abbot chose to stay with Rockwell instead of killing him? Because my friends, at the time Rockwell sneaks Abbot back, Abbot is still heavily pregnant with the reapers. Also, Rockwell has unbelievable Rizz.
But seriously, Rockwell chooses to HIDE him in his lab while he experimented. This allowed him to see what his element addiction would do. Abbot being like all species, produced a pheromone that only a member of his species (AND desired mate) can sense. Since Rockwell's genes changed rapidly, he was able to sense this pheromone and his endocrine system produced HIS OWN. Which in a way formed a symbiotic relationship. The pheromones were therapeutic when reacting to a desired mate, and Abbot was too fucking tired and nauseated from morning sickness to ask for a better option.
Abbot gave birth around the time Rockwell uploaded himself and Abbot into the Genesis ship. So Abbot's postpartum gave him the desire to FIND a better spot to spread. And after Abbot had his and ROCKWELL'S child, Abbot had the idea to return to the specimen containment and find Nerva's genetic samples. He found a way to combine his and Rockwells DNA into the unborn child, making the baby have TWO fathers.
When Abbot HAD the baby in Fjordur where Rockwell uploaded him (and his twins ofc), Abbot began to mellow out. As he had the entire ark to himself, and Abbot, has creative mode.
(No he didn't destroy everything he fucking built giant dicks all over the ark LMAO)
I currently don't have too much to say [because I'm quite tired right now smh], but, ough, do I absolutely love him. I absolutely love all of the DNA stuff, and you went very in-depth with all of this; it was a great read, man.

So listening to Sudno and Untrust us gave me inspiration to make more Abbot lore that's REALLY tied into the game lore, and connecting him to others.
@ouro-bones @jonahs-arks thought you two would enjoy reading this, I do take criticism and I'm feeling a bit of Mary Sue vibes but idk let me know lol
Let's say in many of the other survivor's memories, Nerva for example, he meets an old woman in his military journeys. This woman tells him his fortune, which entails that...
"In your darkest hour, a white devil dressed as a man will breathe fire on all you hate and care for you until your final breath."
Nerva doesn't think anything of this until he meet Abbot. But since it's just an anarchist that has an attitude he shoves this thought aside. At least...until he's trying to kill another tribe. Abbot had found alcohol and wine, and managed to pour it all over himself and the houses and fields. With his "fire breathing" (the party trick people do in festivals) he ends up setting everything on fire. Then it connects, Abbot was that white devil the whole time. Obviously Nerva never really realizes this.
A similar prophecy is told to many other survivors, all by an old lady of some form.
Mei-Yin, by her grandmother. "A close friend will betray you for a pale skinned demon, with eyes seeing into the darkness and fangs of a viper." (HINTING at Abbot's albinism, night vision, and natural fangs. Yes, Abbot has large protruding fangs. Like a viper.)
Bob, by a grandmother in a Jewish family evacuating Nazi Germany. "I see you, I see in your future a demonic man with hair and skin as pale as the moon. With eyes that shine like the lights of a star. He will hurt you, and he will hurt your friends..." (Hinting at Abbot helping Rockwell turn during aberration.)
Ofc Abbot as I mentioned in other posts was friends with Deborah, Helena's mother. Because Abbot was a family friend, Helena was given medical records and many scientific discoveries made in Abbot's autopsy.
Helena noticed MRIs indicated Abbot's brain had an advanced frontal lobe, and a dense nervous system. The autopsy also showed his skull was abnormal as well, his teeth were longer and had catlike features. Similar to the raptor fossils she found, Abbot also had an enlarged iris ring. Because of these discoveries she applied them to dinosaurs and thus made her theory of evolutional behavior.
In Santiago's time era, Abbot's fossilized remains were brought back for examination when people found traced of element in his DNA. They also found that Abbot was quite different. Abbot wasn't only heavily mutated, he had a 36% genetic difference from the human race ITSELF. Because that classified him as another species, he was renamed the Sapius Necro-Deus. "The Wise Death of God." (Deriving from latin terms like Homo Sapien, meaning Wise Human."
Because of that, they dug up the remains of Abbot's daughter. The bones showed even MORE change, with the same percentage of difference as her father. This proved even moreso that Abbot and his offspring were proof of human evolution into a different species because of the element.
How did the element even GET into Abbot? Well it is complicated. Element/Edmundium had been discovered in fossils as stated in ark's wiki. This means that it could potentially be in the bones of HUMAN ancestors. Coincidentally, some of those human ancestors were Abbot's relatives. This element composition in DNA structure carried as a dominant gene as the bloodline carried, until it reached enough to become physical. In short terms; Abbot's mom was a carrier for an ancient set of genes that ended up being awakened when she had her son.
Note that these evolutionary changes didn't give him super powers or anything, and the night vision? Ends up hurting him (especially when Helena learns how to blind him the same way she did with the raptors. Bro was like "MY EYES!!!!")
I have more later but I'm sick of typing plus I need to eat lol

WildCard, what the actual fuck was that Bob's Tall Tales cutscene? I'm extremely fucking unhappy with you guys right now. There's very little you guys can do to make me a happy camper.
They fucking made Diana and Santiago a thing. My blood has been fucking boiling. I have no idea why they would do this because MeiYin and Diana were so fucking perfect, man...
I've been so upset ever since I've seen the cutscene. I was so fucking hyped and this actually fucking ruined it. There's only a couple of things WildCard can do to bring me happiness....
For now, though, I'm gonna rewatch that scene in the show where Bob get shot with an arrow. Several times.
Okay but remember he also didn't know if THEY WERE a thing he said she also had smth going on with our girl Mei, but he might be thinking "oh they're friends" because he's from the 1940s and he doesn't have much knowledge of that
I feel like if someone TOLD HIM about LGBT he might be like "Idk what that is but it's not my life so idgaf" but that's just my headcanon
