#about gabe

Thanks for playing! But, are you familiar with the video game principle? You start off easy and work your way up to the boss-level. You don’t thrust the player into the deep end like that. Why would you do me dirty like this-- xDDD

Uh. I. Uhm. I mean... They are... aesthetically pleasing to look at when they stand next to each other? Like, they’re both pretty.

MEET GABRIEL DUCHANNES.

Gabriel, or GABE, as he prefers to be called, is recklessness and messy hair, impish winks and roguish smiles, muffled moans in dim hallways, sneaking out on late nights.

He is 6 foot 2 -- a lamp post, if you ask me, but despite being a giant, his movements are always graceful, always languid. It’s a feat for him to trip on his feet. ‘Clumsy’ does not describe him. 

His abilities are cryokinesis and enhanced strength, which had him assigned to ALPHA. He can manipulate water molecules and slow them down to convert liquid water into its solid form. That said, he can turn lakes into ice rinks, lift glaciers mentally, conjure lethal icicles from moist air, and freeze a person’s arm off on contact. However, this psychic ability to create and manipulate ice, when used continuously for more than thirty minutes, drains him completely of his energy. This is why, in simulated battles, he only uses it sporadically. He usually relies more on his super strength to get the job done. 

Gabe has a characteristic charm that makes him a friend to many, and an indispensable one at that. He’s the type who won’t judge you when you knock on his door like a sobbing mess at three in the morning. He’ll let you in. He’ll offer to sneak out for food for you from the facility’s kitchens. He’ll sit patiently beside you and listen; give you his arms to cry in, if you need them. 

He’s not the type to lash out on a person. He meets verbal hostility with condescending smirks and smart-ass statements meant to annoy.

Whenever a person he cares for is hurt, he blames himself for not being there to protect them. He’ll take his sweet revenge on the people who caused such pain. He will make them bleed, both literally and figuratively, even if he has to play dirty. 

He knows about his good looks, and he plays it to his advantage. However, he has never been vain about them. He’s the blessed kind who can shrug into low-rise jeans, a loose white shirt, leave his room with hair straight out of bed, and still look devilishly good. 

He has had many flings in the past, all of which had never progressed into something more because he’s terrified of falling in love -- something he hasn’t admitted to himself, never out loud, and never even in his thoughts. 

I have a few wanted connections set-up for him HERE. If none of them fit your fancy, I would love to brainstorm with you!

MEET NICHOLAS BAUMANN.

Nicholas, or NICO, as his friends call him, is soft hair and gentle lips, stolen glances, sleepy music, a dusting of freckles, vanilla ice cream, small ripples in a gentle stream. 

His ability is power replication, and it earned him a spot in BRAVO. If he touches a mutant with his hands, he can imitate their powers, but only for fifteen minutes, at the very most, and only to a basic extent. Combined with his agility and stealth, it’s more than enough to inflict damage on his opponent. He can also take three powers at a time and combine them -- however, he uses this special ability very sparingly, since after ten minutes of this, he is drained of his energy completely. He simply blacks out and spends days dozing off in the infirmary.

Nico is an introvert. He prefers solitude over interacting with large groups of people. It doesn’t mean he never gets lonely, however. He has a small number of very close friends in the facility, and he treats them dearly. 

He is a complete sweetheart. He is soft-spoken and kind, always willing to lend a helping hand to those in need. He can be very warm to people who decide to approach him. It pains him to see other people get hurt -- even complete strangers. 

He’s very protective over the people he cares about, especially his younger sister, Mykhaela. However, he’s such a soft person that it seems as if he’s the one who needs protecting from the world.

In the ring, however, he becomes a different person altogether, like Dr. Jekyll turning into Hyde. He blacks out whenever he fights, morphing into a monster without a single trace of human emotion. Whenever he snaps out from the trance, he feels horribly guilty for inflicting bruises and wounds onto his opponent, no matter how small they may be. He can lock himself up in his room for days, whenever that happens. 

He falls in love as easily as he can breathe air, this pansexual smol. This has caused him plenty of pain in the past, but he hasn’t been fazed one bit. 

- Gabe’s wings are huge and strong and very well cared for.  He’s intensely proud of them and is meticulous in their upkeep. 

- They are white and gold and ‘angelic’

- He hates it when people call them angelic and hates the superstitions that come with having wings that look like his ( he thinks all wing superstitions are bullshit)

- He only hides his wings during sparing and training or when he really doesn’t want attention for them being ‘blessed’

- He dyed them black and red once

- You will lose a hand if you try to touch them without permission.
