xxxxx Cool and calculating, Gabriel may seem like a sort of an enigma, always hiding his true colors on the inside. However, if there's one thing he cares about, it is his family, and no one gets in the way of that. Except maybe money. But don't tell him that to his face. Gabriel died from his mutation on December 24th, 2013, with his sister Lucia, Jackson Holland-Zedner, and Dr. Iolaus Saavedro at his side.

| History

xxxxx Gabriel was born one uneventful Spring night in Manaus, Brazil, to a newly married couple. Up until Gabriel was three, his life was that of a normal toddler, with him learning his basic skills and the like, with his father being a courier and his mother staying at home with him. However, when Gabriel was three, one of his more wealthy relatives died, causing
Gabriel's father to inherit money. He moved the entire family
to New York, to open a restaurant, which had been his dream.
However, once they were all there and he had bought the
building where they'd work and live, he realized that this
didn't leave them with much money. Gabriel's father decided to
make the best of it, and also chose not to cheap out on
bad-quality produce and meats. While they were by no means
making good money, after the first year they had enough to barely live on, plus keep the restaurant alive, which they were
able to do for many years until they were able to up their food
quality, which allowed them to make more money, but still
slightly struggle.
When Gabriel was about seven, his younger sister Luciana, also
known as Lucia, was born. Lucia was born deaf, with a condition
known as Ushers I, which as when she became a teenager, caused
her to go blind. Both Gabriel and Luciana was born mutants,
with their parents being mainly indifferent and loving them
anyways. When Gabriel was about 14, he was discovered by the
Xavier Institute, and sent an invite. Gabriel excelled in his
classes and did very well socializing, but left the school
voluntarily when he was 17, to help his parents with the family
business. Once he had made enough of his own money, he bought
an apartment and got a job, but still helped out at the
restaurant whenever needed.
Gabriel has always been sort of a 'roguish' type. When he was 12, he begun stealing from the cash register or from customer purses when they weren't looking, always looking for new ways
to steal. When he went to the Institute, his thieving stopped,
but mostly due to Gabriel's knowledge of telepaths there.
However, after Gabriel left, he needed more ways to make money,
and begun picking pockets. In this line of work he met Jack, a
fellow criminal and mutant. Jack and Gabriel have known each
other for the past four years, doing small jobs with minimal
risk together, splitting the profits. But sometimes, Gabriel
feels like he wants more than this.

xxxxxGabriel was born with the mutant ability to manipulate space,
but in a certain way. In simple terms, Gabriel can literally
'pull' space, making it look, in his perspective, as he is
pulling a side of the room closer to him. However, to the
perspective of others, Gabriel's matter is instead rapidly
moving, but still tangibly, across the room. Gabriel can only
'warp' up to 12 feet, and must set a distance before hand.
Anything Gabriel hits will effect his warping like running
would, although he moves faster than running and also hits
harder. Gabriel is able to 'warp' in any direction, including
diagonally, and can also carry small objects, and sometimes,
people with him. 'Warping', however, takes a large toll on
Gabriel's body and metabolism, and doing it too much too
frequently can injure, or worse, kill him. Also, because of how
his matter and body work, Gabriel's metabolism is constantly
out of whack, with him losing calories slowly but constantly,
requiring him to eat massive portions of food every day to stay
alive and healthy. Gabriel also has a secondary mutation.
Gabriel is able to see potential outcomes for each action,
however without an exact probability of said outcome happening.
Most of the time, this can hinder Gabriel instead of helping
him, and can also lead to migraines from usage, but can also
help him think about the risks and rewards of a certain action.
