Is the angel Abaddon in Revelation a good angel or a fallen angel?

I am doing a research paper and study on the book of Revelation.

Abaddon is a fallen angel. In Chapter 9, the fifth angel blows his trumpet and a star falls from the sky to the earth and is given the key to the abyss. Locusts appear with the power to harm people for 5 months. Their king is the angel of the abyss whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon.

The distinction in the translation is that other angels, such as Satan, fall from heaven, or grace, but Abaddon falls to Earth. Abaddon carries the key to the bottomless pit, and is known in the Bible to open the Fifth seal. add a comment

Abaddon is the Fifth angel in Revelations and tells the others to only hurt those who do not have the seal of God in their foreheads. It is a destroyer, but not a fallen angel or demon. Some are uncomfortable with this entity due to the role it plays. add a comment

Abaddon is an angel. The confusion of his origin comes from his job subduing and then guarding Satan in the bottomless pit. He is chiefly known as the Destroyer due to his roles, particularly the one he plays during the Apocalypse.

Most scholars consider Abaddon a fallen angel. He is considered to be a demon that is sent to cause harm to people during the end times. His name means DESTROYER. You can find more information about Abaddon in the ninth chapter of Revelation. The first few verses of that chapter describe the harm that is caused by Abaddon.

The problem with this is that Abaddon destroys only those who are not with God in Revelations and instructs the others to do the same. Abaddon takes on many difficult and dirty tasks for God hence the confusion with the nature of Abaddon. add a comment

The angel Abaddon is deemed to be one of Lucifer's earliest and most loyal followers. He is one of the principle organizers of the the demonic temptation corps which is really like the infernal secret service.
