Gabriel Angelos is a recurring character from the Dawn of War series.
Bio[edit | edit source]
Born on and latter blowing up the world of Cyrene due to unpleasant (and/or heretical) circumstances, Gabriel is a Space Marine of the Blood Ravens chapter. He served as the captain of its third company during the Tartarus Campaign (Dawn of War I), kept this position as he raced to the aid of the heroes of the Tyranid-besieged Aurelia (Dawn of War II), and ultimately was promoted to the rank of Chapter Master after the death of his demonically corrupted predecessor, Azariah Kyras (Dawn of War II: Retribution). He also shows up in Dawn of War III, but we don't talk about that here.
Though Gabe is a fairly pleasant example of a warrior by the grimdark standards of Warhammer 40.000, there's no denying he single-handedly caused much of the crap that would later haunt the Blood Ravens when he inadvertently released a major daemon of Khorne during the Tartarus campaign by smacking it in the face with his demonhammer. Said demon would subsequently corrupt aforementioned Kyras (who, in all fairness, had already fallen to Chaos on the jolly suggestion of Ulkair the Unclean). Kyras then went on to reward him by first turning into a fuckhuge demon prince before he smashed Gabriel into a fine red pulp. Gabriel somehow survived this after Apollo Diomedes called down an orbital bombardment on Kyras, and underwent extensive rebuilding through bionics before taking up the mantle of his former boss.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Gabriel debuted in 8chanmania LXXVII, was cut up by Biker, and hasn't been seen since.
