The whole point is that Abe is the only slave who has that power. Being able to possess Sligs from the start is suitable. Sure it would work better with some kind of explanation or him discovering his powers, but the mechanic was one of the main focuses of the game so it's easier to look past it. In AE, there is absolutely NO reason to be able to posses Scrabs and Paramites.
I've always 'justified' that as him having gotten that ability by receiving the scars. Which would make sense in a way. On the other hand, why would he be able to possess some creatures but not others?
