''I understand that you feel yourself wronged by our bargain. If you'd like me to meet you on the field of honor, I accept.  As the challenged party, I choose knives.''

Born to a genteel family on the fairly prosperous but lightly governed border world of Greenleaf, Gabriel learned early the fine art of taking money from people with too much of it but not enough business sense. Land speculation, exchange rate schemes, fake stock certificates: if it's a shady version of a legitimate business practice, Gabriel's tried his hand at it.

Luckily, those hands are also good with a knife. In the dueling-obsessed culture of Border nobility, this has helped him resolve several business disputes that would not have gone in his favor in a real courtroom.

When the war came, he supported Independence. This wasn't out of any high-minded political ideal, but rather the simple practicality that the Alliance would institute commercial controls that would make Gabriel's schemes harder to sustain.

'''Asset''' [[file:d8a.png|24px|d8]] ''Description''
  
He had no intention of joining the military, but he helped where he could, primarily funneling money and sometimes goods through the smuggler's havens on Greenleaf to the Browncoats.  He also picked a few duels with Alliance-friendly nobles and businessmen.  Calling these "assassinations" would be harsh, but it's fair to say that he goaded some Alliance advocates into duels that they had no chance of winning.

'''Asset''' [[file:d6a.png|24px|d6]] ''Description''
 
 
When the Captain's Wager's owner asked Gabriel to sign on to the ship, he turned the offer down flat.  Then, the next day when agents of the Alliance Revenue Service knocked on his door, he slipped out the back and set out for the stars.
 
 
 
==Personality==
 
 
 
Gabriel is an ostentatiously well-mannered man, raised in the tight social confines of Border lower nobility.  He's very difficult to excite or fluster, but he's no curmudgeon - he likes having a good time.
