If you want to unlock the Black Templars Castellan in Warhammer Survivors, you’ll need to find a hidden paint pot called Abaddon Black and purchase the character using 800 coins. Unlike characters that require rescuing or completing specific objectives, this one becomes available through the Paint Pots collection.
The Black Templars Castellan belongs to the Warhammer 40,000 universe, so make sure you select the correct universe before starting your search. You can collect the required paint pot by playing on the Imperial Bastion map with any character.
In this guide, I’ll show you where to find Abaddon Black, how to collect it, and how to purchase the Black Templars Castellan. We’ll also look at his starting weapon, stats, and passive ability.
How to Unlock Black Templars Castellan in Warhammer Survivors
Follow these steps to find the required paint pot and add the Castellan to your character roster.
Step 1: Select Warhammer 40,000
Go to the main menu and select the Warhammer 40,000 universe. The Black Templars Castellan belongs to this universe, so make sure you don’t select Age of Sigmar.
Step 2: Start a Run on Imperial Bastion
Choose Imperial Bastion and start a run with any available character.
Once you load into the stage, pause the game and open the map tab. Look towards the upper-left area of the map, north and west of your starting position.
You’ll find a green question mark marking the location of the hidden paint pot.
Step 3: Find the Abaddon Black Paint Pot
Head north towards the green question mark. It’s a bit of a walk, so you can defeat enemies and collect some experience along the way.
The paint pot is located inside one of the walled-off military bases, next to a large red container.
Walk over the paint pot to collect it. You’ll then see the Paint Pot Found notification confirming that you’ve discovered Abaddon Black.
Step 4: Purchase the Black Templars Castellan
After collecting the paint pot, return to the character selection screen and open the Paint Pots menu to confirm that Abaddon Black has been added to your collection.
The Black Templars Castellan should now be available to purchase for 800 coins.
Select him, complete the purchase, and he’ll be added to your Warhammer 40,000 character roster.
