Though the exact circumstances are unknown, it is known that the Disciples of the Light confined the Beast to the planet later known as Krop Tor and placed the planet in orbit around the black hole K37 Gem 5. If he ever tried to escape, the field holding the planet in orbit would stop and the planet would be sucked into the black hole.

It also had a son, known as Abaddon. (TW: End of Days)
- Some also called the Beast itself Abbadon. The Beast had an unknown relationship with the Ood, who said that they served as his Legion.
The Beast possessed Toby Zed, a crew member of the Walker Expedition Sanctuary Base, via the text transcribed into the Krop Tor Notebook.
Through Zed, the Beast's first action was to kill Scooti Manista by breaking one of the windows (the Beast and those he possesses can survive in a vacuum for at least a few minutes). The Base's Ood were taken over. Upon the Ood's defeat, the Beast planned to escape by keeping his spirit in Toby's body, leaving his body behind. The Doctor deactivated the force holding Krop Tor in orbit.
The Beast's original body was destroyed when Krop Tor fell into K37 Gem 5 and his spirit was destroyed when Toby's body was pulled into K37 Gem 5. (DW: The Satan Pit)
