 ____________________________________________________ C H A R A C T E R I N F O R M A T I O N Name: Gabriel Rivera Nicknames/Aliases: Gabs | Sonar | Techie | IT Support Birth City/District: Neo-Tokyo, Ishibashi District Age: 25 Height: 5'10" Racial Background: Latino/South American Race: Natural Born Y.S.G. Hair Color: White Eye Color: Green Appearance: Gabriel is a young man of average height, standing in at just under six feet. Gabriel is rather thin, with a wiry and lean build not unlike that of an athlete- or at least one used to running and regular physical exertion. While not the bursting at the seams with brawn, Gabriel is in good fighting shape, and his body is sinewy and lithe. His eyes are a bright, piercing green, and his hair is white, contrasting his mocha skin. Large holo-light Neon tattoos stretch across his body, lining his arms, chest, back and neck with a variety of designs, an eclectic mix of technological and spiritualist in nature. A variety of scars also dot across various parts of his body, and his clothing choices reside in the middle ground between fashionable and practical. Mutation Marker(s): Gabriel's hair is a pigment-less white, lacking in luster or shine. His pupils also glow a faint red while in the dark. Personality: Despite his resting scowl and constant sarcasm, Gabs is about as well meaning and warm as they come. Snarky, and a bit of a smart-ass, Gabriel has a rebellious streak a mile wide, and chafes under the thumb of authority. Gabriel has a bit of trouble keeping his mouth shut, especially when dealing with outsiders, but is generally playful and friendly when with the crew. Fairly intelligent and perceptive, Gabriel has an eye for detail and can notice things others miss, and can be surprisingly insightful. Fiercely loyal to the other members of the Kurosagi, Gabriel is not exactly altruistic, but is quick to jump to the aid of others, as well as the downtrodden and exploited- usually because it means sticking it to the Big Man. Gabriel is also resourceful enough to realize that having more allies in more places gives him a bigger safety net when things inevitably go to shit. Aspirations: Gabriel is under no illusion that he'll probably die young, most people in his line of work, with his kind of life do. Gabriel is determined to die making as big a stink as he can for the J.F. Blow up their towers, disrupt their communications, fuck them and their families, the whole 9 yards. If by some miracle he manages to survive to retirement, he's going to buy an RV, arm it to the gills with guns, and live the rest of his life far away from the big cities. Fears:

Weaknesses/Flaws:
Y.S.G Ability(ies): Blindsense Within a range of 25 meters, Gabriel can sense and detect the vast majority of people and objects through a type of seismic sonar. Gabriel's senses are able to negate practically any method of stealth, be they visual or otherwise, so long as they are making contact with a surface that Gabriel also has contact with. Gabriel has a harder time detecting things that are flying or hovering, but larger objects- such as drones, will often displace enough air that makes contact with walls or floors that he can at least tell that there is something in the general area. In conjunction with his SquadSightTM smart lenses, he can 'tag' the location of potential enemies for his crew to exploit. First Awakening: Precognitive Sense A sort of 6th sense, Gabriel has a sort of precognitive ability that allows him to detect danger before it happens to him, allowing him to react to it and generally get out of danger. This sense often takes over Gabriel's movements and he'll often react before realizing it. This sense assists Gabriel in dodging all manner of threats, be they physical attacks, firearms, even explosions. The reactions are not always foolproof- the reactions work to get him out of imminent danger, but may not always be perfect. Sometimes injuries are unavoidable, but Gabriel's precognitive sense will often help mitigate some of the damage- for instance moving his body in such a way that he only receives a serious wound instead of a deadly one.

| H i s t o r y Born to a pair of lower class laborers, Gabriel was born with very little and had to fight for everything he's had in life. The middle child of five, there was a motto at the dinner table of the Rivera family: "You eat fast, or you don't eat!". Most of Gabriel's childhood was spent in the streets of the Heita District, running through the urban slums with his brothers and other street kids, scavenging, stealing, fighting, getting into trouble and causing a general ruckus. Gabriel was always faster and stronger than the other kids his age, but no one really realized that he was a Y.S.G. when he was a child- they just figured he was just fast or strong for his age. The vast majority of people there weren't always bright enough to tell the difference between a Y.G. and a Y.S.G. anyway. Schooling for the lower class children of the Neo-Tokyo was never a particularly strong priority, and most of what the lower class children learned in their youth was the lessons they learned in the streets- with mathematics, letters and reading being a skill learned while they were in their homes after dinner. Once Gabriel turned 12, he joined his brothers the family business: a local chop shop, taking apart scrap electronics and machines and selling the parts for a tiny profit. It was here Gabriel started coming into his own. Gabriel realized he had a knack for electronics and machinery and (often on the family budget) began to tinker and assemble things on his own. He was 14 when he made his first firearm. Gabriel began throwing himself headlong into work, ranging further and further out of the slums to scavenge or steal useful materials to work with. All the while, he and his family kept his status as a Y.S.G. under wraps- luckily, Gabriel's features were neither noticeable, nor his powers particularly conspicuous. People avoided the slums in general anyway, so Gabriel was free to fly under the radar. Unfortunately, nothing lasts forever, and Gabriel and his family were eventually caught up in a gang war between the Kurushimu and the Tenshi-tachi no musuko-tachi. The Chop shop was unfortunately caught in the crossfire and Gabriel and his sister were forced to flee for their lives. Some time during this event, Gabriel's powers would evolve for the first time, keeping him and his sister alive as he guided them deeper into the slums. A few years later and things began turning for the better- Gabriel and his sister were taken in by a lady who ran a crew in Sakanoshita named 'Mama Tsuki'. Gabriel integrated into the crew nicely, his technical expertise allowing him to pull his weight with the crew- doing everything from maintaining vehicles and surveillance systems, to fashioning weapons and armaments. |
A longsword with a slightly curved blade. Gabriel's soul binder takes the form of a finely crafted katana. Chains adorn the grip, and the tsuba has the shape of a golden, coiling dragon. The blade itself is a gleaming silver in color, practically glowing in the moonlight. The weapon itself is quite hefty, capable of cleaving through steel and concrete alike, but is perfectly balanced in Gabriel's grip. When summoned, the weapon appears to be assembled by countless bits of red neon light.
