Anubis' Abacus is a divine instrument that is used by the god Anubis to determine who goes to either Heaven or Hell. It's unknown if Anubis is the one who have to use it to work properly.

Use[]

Using it as a medium Anubis can determine if one is worthy of Heaven or condemn to Hell. The abacus has 90 beads that change it's colors and positions when someone raises their hand above the abacus, at the end of the process, if the white beads on the abacus out count the black beads, then it indicates that the soul will go to Heaven. However if black beads out count the white, it means that the soul goes to Hell. Anubis himself notes that the instrument is not above miscalculation; most likely stemming from the fact that it assesses whomever it judges based on that person's tallied deeds until the point of their demise and not their state of morality from before or after they died. It is not used to determine if deceased angels, demons and monsters go to The Empty (angels and demons) or the Purgatory (monsters) since it is the only destination they have.

Powers and Abilities[]

  • Soul Reading - When someone places his hand above the abacus, it will move it's beads up and down to determine if the person is worthy or not to go to Heaven or Hell.
  • Self-Color Changing - The abacus beads change their colors between black in the bottom, gray in the middle, and white in the top as they move up and down.
