Character from He Who Fights with Monsters by Shirtaloon
A gold-rank fire adventurer who jumps off boats before they dock and does unscheduled fire dances at his son's graduation — theatrical in the best possible way.
Gabriel flies by the seat of his pants and acts outside social constraints with the cheerful impunity of a gold-ranker who knows nobody is going to stop him. He jumps off boats before they dock, performs unscheduled fire dances at formal events, and generally treats life as an opportunity for dramatic entrances. His whimsy is genuine rather than performative — he simply cannot conceive of doing things the boring way. He and Arabelle raised Rufus with a combination of adventuring excellence and emotional warmth, producing a son who inherited their competence if not quite Gabriel's flair for the theatrical.
Dark-skinned, physically imposing in the way gold-rank adventurers tend to be. Animated and expressive, rarely standing still — his body language is as theatrical as his fire abilities.
