HAIR&EYES Gabriel has the typical London look--chiselled cheek bones, cold, white skin tainted with freckles gently spotted across the bridge of his nose and his back. His short hair is shaved on the sides, messy and often just tousled with moose in the morning if not left alone every morning as bed hair. People remember him from his extraordinary piercing, chartreuse green eyes, that seem to notice even the most mundane details. People joke he must have 19/19 vision, but in reality, he just has excellent perception and deductive skills.
HEIGHT&WEIGHT 6'1", 170 lbs
Tall, lithe, he may not look like it but he is lean and can hold his own in a fight. Despite the fact that he doesn't have that much money, he makes sure to have clean clothes, even it means sacrificing food to make ends meet. For this reason, it's almost as if Gabriel doesn't have a scent, he smells like air--or, for lack of better words, fresh laundry softener and pillow fluff, like angel feathers.

BOGGART His greatest fear is becoming one of the monsters he hunts, waking up once more in a pile of blood, staring at the body of a stranger whom he murdered himself.
MIRROR OF ERISED He see's nothing, because he desires nothing.
PATRONUS
He's never summoned one before, but it would probably take the image of a crow due to his cunning nature and it's relationship with the supernatural.
PERSONALITY
At first glance, Gabriel seems like a high-functioning sociopath with a disregard to people's privacy and normal lives. He's able to think of motives and murder as if he's the murderer himself; yet, there's one thing that contradicts that. He does feel, and feel very deeply. Contrary to popular belief, Gabriel is a bit of an empath, able to feel the emotions of those around him--whether he wants to or not. In order to stay in control of this, he forces himself to be anti-social and emotionless, not allowing others emotions to overpower and control him instead. What emotions he does feel are forced to come out as shallow and unmoving. Overall, he appears heartless.
He is cunning, and yet paranoid all the same breath, always having two eyes on the back of his head. In order to be numb and forget other people's emotions, he's become addicted to a drug known as Lauridnum, a type of poison that appears to heighten the senses so that the user has a 6th sense.
Gabriel is compassionate, protective, and has a sense of duty that he refuses to betray. However, he may come off as cold whenever he talks because he tends to avoid all emotion by focusing on completely logical responses to everything.

Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right, and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort.

HISTORY
Gabriel's history begins when he woke up one tuesday, June 11th, 2012 at 4:33am. Neighbors called in a disturbance in what sounded like screaming coming from the room below.
Location: Whitchapel, England
Christian Street Apartments
Room #403
Gabriel woke up to the sound of fists hounding on the wall, and found himself quite...wet. He was soaked to the brim in what felt like conjealed liquid. After waking up hazily, he groggily walked over to the bathroom to change clothes--in hindsight, trying to hide the evidence didn't help in his favor, but then again he didn't know he was soaked head to toe in blood either. When he turned on the mirror and realized he was covered in dead man's blood, he screamed, giving the police reason enough to break an entry.
When they walked in, Gabriel was standing over a corpse. He was having an anxiety attack, body trembling, when he looked to the police and said slowly, "It's...not what it looks like." Then fainted.
When he woke up, he was in the hospital, cleaned up with an IV attached to his wrist. A detective was waiting for him, a Mr. Erik Vaughn, who asked him why he was in Room #403 that night. Gabriel didn't know. He didn't know anything. Mr. Vaughn waited, and said, "No dental records, no birth record, social security number, no fingerprints--it's like you never existed. You shouldn't exist. Just who are you, Mr. Singrave?" Gabriel sat up at once, feeling nausea swell in him like a churning sea as he asked dizzily, "Singrave? Is that my name?"
"Look at your arm." Vaughn said after awhile, pulling out a cigarette and lighting it carefully.
Gabriel hazily looked over, and noticed a small white skin-like membrane covering his arm. Gabriel ripped it off, and hissed, looking at the healing scars beneath it. Carved into his arm was the name: Gabriel Anhl Singrave.
"Who did this to me?" He asked Vaughn, looking at him warily.
"You did, according to the angle of the scars...Apparently, you used a knife to carve this into your arm." He took a drag of his cigarette, and leaned back in his chair. "Mind telling me why?"
"...I don't know."
There was silence,for a few minutes, while Gabriel and Vaughn stared at each other in contemplation.
After a while, Vaughn spoke, "It doesn't look too good for you, Singrave. You were found next to a corpse."
"I know." Gabriel stated bluntly, "I woke up covered in his blood."
"That wasn't his." Vaughn said, pausing.
"...I...What?"
"That was yours, Singrave. The corpse was drained completely of blood. No trace of it ever being cut or drained from his body." He dropped his cig to the floor and crushed it with his leather soled shoe. "Well, Singrave, it looks like we have quite the mystery on our hands, and you're either the only living witness...or the murderer."
Gabriel stared at him, waiting.
"I'm going to take a leap of faith here and be honest with you. I think you're just another confused victim, but until I have another clue as to what--" A phone rang. Vaughn sighed, listening the default ring, before answering it, "Hello? Yes. Vaughn here. Uh huh. Is that so? Right, okay, I have him right here. I'm coming."
Vaughn stood up and through a long black overcoat at Gabriel, "Get dressed."
"Where are we going? I've still got an IV in my wrist--" "Quit your whining, if you're strong enough to carve that brutish scar into your arm you can take out your own bloody IV." "Detective--Sir--That still doesn't answer--" "You're coming with me." "But why?" Gabriel asked, pulling out the IV like it was second nature to him. Vaughn was right, he must've been some sort of painless brute in his past life. "There's been another murder. Now unless you have the ability to drain people dry of their blood 10 miles away, you're not the murderer. Hurry up, Singrave."
"But this still doesn't explain why you're bringing me along." Gabriel protested, shaking his head and pulling on a pair of boxers and denim.
"Welcome to the force, as of right now, you're an assistant Detective. I need you to get your memories back. You're going to help me solve this case, Singrave, whether you like it or not."
