Name: Gabriel Lial
Nicknames: Gabe, Lial.
Aliases:
Age: 16
Marital Status: Single
Sexual Orientation:Straight.(Still not confident enough in my role playing abilities to try a gay or bi person.)
Weight:117 lbs
Height: 5'8 ft
Eyes: A dazzling light brown.
Hair: Lial's hair is a light brown, much like his eyes. Lial's hair hangs down toward his chin in thin tendrils.
Clothing: Lial tries to dress in his best clothes at all times, but since his clothing is more geared toward Russia's cold, Lial ends up overheated. He has decided to take an attempt at the norm and occasionally wears a regular teeshirt and jeans.
Powers: Gabe is a walking bomb so to speak. Gabriel absorbs energy from everything he walks near, from microwave to sunlight. In him all of this energy is stored, should he not release it in small doses he would explode.
Weakness: Girls. Lial hates hurting girls, when it comes to males he has no problem inflicting pain, but he cannot stand to see a girl cry. To him they are the most fragile of things and should be kept happy as much as possible. That is not to say he will not hurt a girl if it is a decision between his success and her life, but at least he will attempt to repent.
Power related issues: Should he not release power often of course he can explode, but on a less deadly level when he has large amounts of energy stored inside him at a time Lial suffers from exhaustion, migraines, and on the worst of cases his hands may start to bleed as the energy tries to escape from his body.
Personality:Gabe is kind and polite when talking to people, he tries never to show his own flaws in front of them while he secretly watches and tries to discover theirs. He firmly believes that should he watch for peoples flaws long enough he may be able to exploit them to further his own success.
History: Gabriel was the second son of a Russian mafia lord, he had the best of the best, there was no hand-me-downs in this family. He and his older brother, Nikolai, had been schooled by the best minds that money could buy, they were fed with the best of palates, wore the finest materials, but despite that neither of the children was truly happy. Each longed for the love of their mother, but the truth was that their mother cursed the birth of the two, if not for them she would have been able to leave the arms of the mafia lord to be replaced by a younger woman, now she was kept around to be no better than a play toy for these children.
As Gabriel grew up he watched his brother face the harsh realities of their father's work while he was allowed to keep in the shadows and remain an innocent child. After years of working with there father Nikolai had grown cold, he would do anything so that he would gain more power, so he began grooming Gabriel to do the same. Young Gabe happily received the attention of his older brother, it made him feel for the first time in his life like he was welcome, wanted, maybe even loved.
Nikolai began training his childish brother the ways of the mafia so that when he took over as the mafia lord Gabriel would be a more than competent second in command. He taught Gabe martial arts so that he may defend himself, gunman ship was next in line, he even taught the boy how to knife fight. Now came the difficult part, he had to teach Gabe how to command the respect of those whom he employed. It was tough teaching a young teenager how to demand the respect of those older than him, but sure enough within the month Gabe was bossing around all of the help.
When Nikolai turned twenty he was becoming angered by his father having yet to hand over the business to him, so one early morning their father had a small accident in his car. Nikolai needless to say now had all of the power that he could ever wish for. Gabriel was a more than worthy right hand man, he watched his brother's back at all times. Sadly one night while taking a bath a maid had stumbled in to attend Gabe, but the woman was lame(not the modern used term.) and had accidental knocked all of Gabe's clothing into the water. Not exactly a major incident, but never the less it angered him. He fled from the house that night, leaving behind a maid that was made crispy. Should Nikolai discover Gabe's new ability then he would surely exploit it, and for Gabe their would be not a moment left of freedom. During his escape from Russia Lial had been approached by a stranger and offered the chance of true freedom. In fear of his brother Lial agreed. One month later he was in the hidden City of Cassis.
