Gabriel Black
"Light is meaningful only in relation to darkness, and truth presupposes error. It is these mingled opposites which people our life, which make it pungent, intoxicating. We only exist in terms of this conflict, in the zone where black and white clash."

HEIGHT:
→ 5'11"
WEIGHT:

DESCRIPTION:
→ Gabriel would be described as the perfect half-way between his father Jet and his mother Emma. Dark blue hair stands out upon his head, matching the strong set blue eyes. Broad shoulders and a fit body, he is the spitting image of his father. Yet his build is smaller, more reminiscent of his mother. When he isn't striding into battle with his armor, Gabe loves his tough guy look. Dark shirts and jeans, leather jackets, the like. He has a love for the color blue and wears it often. Enjoys wearing a red or brown headband for tradition. A proud young man, he carries himself well as a general should, and even has a hammy side from time to time. Because of his family and many visits to Creta, he has adopted a weird accent that is mostly Cretan with an Amestrian flair.

PERSONALITY:
→ Strong willed and stubborn, Gabriel Black is an honorable man that will do anything to stand for what he believes in. The perfect Neutral Good, he does the best that a good person can do. He is devoted to helping others, and is immensely loyal to Amestris and those he cares about. He holds himself to 10 ideals :
1. You shall lie only to evil-doers.
2. You shall not harm the innocent.
3. You shall not murder.
4. You shall help the needy.
5. You shall honor those who promote goodness.
6. You shall follow the law unless breaking the law results in more good.
7. You shall not betray others.
8. You shall bring evil-doers to justice.
9. You shall steal only to promote goodness.
10. You shall seek unlimited good for others
By following these principles every day, Gabe strives to be the best person he can be.
General Black enjoys the company of a fine lady, but in front of true beauties he goes from smooth to downright embarrassing. He also inherited natural leading skills and charisma from his father, and is extremely passionate in everything he does. Never one for politics, he tends to allow his actions to speak for him. Although when he does sit down to talk he has picked a wide vocabulary, likely from Jethro. Thankfully the ham gene only went that far, as Gabriel isn't much for flashy speeches.
LOVE:
→ The color blue (navy)
→ Tough women (fighters)
→ Food
→ A good fight!
→ His family, soldiers, and friends
→ Amestris
→ Military tactics and strategy
→ Honor in combat
→ Handguns
→ Jazz, Rock, and Classical music
HATE:
→ All other firearms
→ Modern weaponry
→ Passive people
→ Loss of loved ones
→ Alchemy
→ Too much talking
ALIGNMENT:
→ Neutral Good
STRENGTHS:
→ Extremely fit: Gabriel is in pristine condition at all times, keeping his body 100% no matter what. Not only strong, his average size allows him to be very quick, the fastest the Black family may have ever seen!
→ An unrivaled swordsman: Since he was a child no one has ever defeated him in single combat, blades or otherwise. A very defensive minded fighting style allows him to observe and counter nearly anything thrown at him.
→ Not a general for nothing: Above his martial skill, Gabriel is also a brilliant tactician. Applying his defensive fighting style to warfare, Western Command has been nicknamed "Arx Invictus" or Unconquerable Fortress since his father took over, and continues to hold this mantle with The Blue Knight at its head.
→ Charismatic: A natural born leader, Gabriel has earned the respect of Western Command time and time again with his steadfast orders and loyalty to his men. In this regard he the spitting image of his father.
WEAKNESSES:
→ Stubborn: Having never lost a fight or battle going his way, those that stand in his way find their way gone quickly. Although some may put this as a strength, this attitude may ultimately lead to his downfall.
→ Women: Much like Jet, Gabe has a weakness for the ladies. This could easily be used to manipulate him.
→ Ranged combat: Modern military brought with it the use of firearms and longer ranged warfare, all things Gabriel himself is not a huge fan of. Preferring to fight in the thick of melee, even his men have adopted this behavior. Although they do not entirely abandon ranged combat, it is not his Commands forte, nor his.
→ Defensive minded: This is both his greatest strength and greatest weakness. Being the best at defense ultimately leaves offense somewhat by the wayside. In attacking situations he and his armies tend to fall short, leaving this to the East in most cases.

HISTORY:
→ Gabriel Isaac Black, son of Jethro and Emma Black, brother to twin sister Michelle Raven Black, and Head of Western Command. As a child, Gabriel dreamed of following his fathers footsteps. He was trained daily in the ways of a Knight, from swordsmanship to etiquette, Jet taught him well. He and his sister would both spar every day to test who was stronger, neither one having ever truly defeated the other.
When Gabriel came of age, he immediately joined the Amestrian military. His goal: to become the General of Amestris' entire military. His father would soon retire, and there would be big shoes to fill. Time and time again enemies came knocking, only to be cast aside by the pure strength of Western Command and the Black family that lead it.
Many believed Gabe's swift rise through the ranks was too quick at first, that it was only the product of his bloodline. But as time progressed, so too did the soldiers perspective on the young Knight. They grew to respect and even admire the young man through his charisma, martial prowess, and steadfast loyalty to his men. When his father retired and the opening in Western Commands Head position was created, Gabriel became the obvious choice to take the old Generals place. Promoted to Brigadier General and Head of Western Command at the young age of 25, the youngest in Amestrian history since Jethro, Gabriel's true journey has only just begun.
