Gabriel

""Give someone a mask, and they'll show you who they really are.""

- Gabriel "Gabriel" is the assumed identity of one of the main trio who leads The Archangel Crew based in the US. His true identity and intentions is never outright revealed. (However, through some research Mouse does, his name can be speculated.)

He is one of the three main trio of The Archangel Crew, sometimes acts as the leader of the crew, despite himself claiming Michael to be the leader of the crew.

Like Michael, and Raquel, he is shown to be capable of fending off numerous opponents on his own. He specializes mostly in planning, preparation, and improvisation. He is also proficient in firearms training, and partially trained in hand-to-hand combat.

Description
Gabriel appears mostly in the Breach Series, but has been mentioned in other short stories. He has an average physical build and unnoteworthy appearance. Though when undressed, he is mentioned to have a slightly athletic physique. His hair is dark brown, short, and wavy, and his eyes, as far as the MC knows, is light blue.

Most of the times, when he's not wearing his Archangel uniform, he would be seen wearing a very bland clothing choice to ease the transition of him blending into the crowds. His Archangel mask is a white mask with a blood red smile across the mouth. (Apart from the purple tracksuit. He is also seen wearing a swat uniform, and kilt.)

In "Shadow of Titans", Gabriel (Callsign "Pariah") is seen wearing a normal civilian clothing that would blend well with the locals in Syria. It is a fleece jacket and jeans with a hood, and a balaclava, he never once showed his face throughout the entire story.

In the end of Carly's Short Story "900 Miles to Barcelona", Gabriel can be seen wearing his iconic red smile hockey mask and suit.

Background
Not much known about Gabriel in the game, most of his story that we know of starts in the first game of Breach: The Archangel Job. He is a former special forces operator, and before that, a criminal. His training consists of unorthodox combat techniques, which hints into his life as a Ghost, working for Ghost Company.

In "Shadow of Titans", Gabriel is revealed to be working for Ghost Company as the team leader for Phantom, along with Michael, Raquel, Rook, and Bishop.

Skills & Equipment
Gabriel seems to have extensive training with a wide array of firearms and have unorthodox tactical and strategic training that seems to indicate some type of urban, espionage, special forces type of training. He is a master of disguise, being a former con-artist himself. He prefers to create a plan and then leave room to improvise on top of the numerous backup plans that he may have.

He also seems to be skilled at baking, this is revealed in "Shadow of Titans" that he was trained by a Syrian woman who helped save his life, who in exchange, he taught her how to become a sharp shooter.

The earliest known record of Gabriel's appearance is in Syria, along with the main trio, with the assumed identity of Galilae. Back then, Gabriel was mentioned as always using an FN FAL Rifle, while also carrying his FN FNC rifle which he now primarily uses.

In The Archangel Job, Gabriel is seen to almost always be wearing his suit and blue tie, occasionally along with a plate carrier with a Level IV armour insert. In the game, he is mostly seen carrying his FN FNC Rifle and his browning Hi-Power pistol.

In "Shadow of Titans", he is seen using his FN FAL, while also carrying his FN FNC, his Browning Hi-Power pistol, wearing his plate carrier on top of his civilian clothing.

His Browning Hi-Power has no name, though it does have the number 12 painted in blue on the grip, signifying Gabriel's identity within Ghost Company. It is usually fitted with a suppressor, and fires sub-sonic 9mm rounds, both with and without the suppressor.
