built 658 days ago
Spawn has an ability to "feel" or "sense" misery, pain and hatred as a gift/punishment given to him by The Keeper, an agent of the Emerald Parliament of Greenworld. He is aware, even subconsciously when someone is attacked or murdered because he has gained a further affinity with the creatures of the night and shadows and through them experiences the anguish of all mankind. Spawn can ... transform into a swarm of bats and transports from place to place. Recently, Spawn has shown that he contains an unknown number of lost souls who can share his Hellspawn abilities that are collectively known as the Legion. Detective Twitch theorized that the souls that Spawn carries are those that died during the same hour that Al Simmons was killed, and that there could be as many as 6,000 souls within him. It seems that the power from these souls is the reason Spawn was uncontrollable by Malebolgia, and often referred to as "the One."

Spawn camping refers to the tactic of taking up a useful position outside one of these bases, usually with a powerful anti-infantry weapon such as a sniper rifle, without making any attempt to capture the flag in question. This is a good method of inflating the player's score (particularly important in the light of Battlefield 2's ranking system) ... it eliminates any chance of enjoyment on the part of the opposing team, and is often seen as being a 'n00b' tactic.

For a time Spawn could be classified as a demon of varying power levels, and he eventually actually became the ruler of Hell for a very brief period of time. He was insane for a little while recently.

Spawn struggled to find a way to free himself from Hell's control and recapture his humanity. Attacks from both Heaven and Hell were coming faster and faster, and Spawn was on the verge of losing himself to the violence and the evil. Salvation arrived in the form of a mound of festering garbage - The Heap, an emissary of the Greenworld, a power equal to Heaven and Hell that Spawn had never encountered before. They endowed him with a host of new abilities that would enable him to overcome the worst both Heaven and Hell had to offer.
