They bind their chest, and have trans-masculine anatomy such as chest hair.

Personality

They have a heart of gold and is genuine friends with many. However, Gabriel puts on a mask of respect towards nobles because they are part of a minority that despises them. Gabriel can speak English and Spanish, but they speak little about their past unless they are asked. They enjoy art, especially of the human figure and portraits. Gabriel occasionally does commissions for the nobles.

Story

Gabriel was once a shaman in their tribe in pre-Columbian Colombia. As a shaman, their journey was supposed to set sail and gain contact to another tribe, but the sea winds carried their ship far across the ocean blue. Gabriel arrived in England first, in which they would lose their identity as a Wayuu shaman and become an artist. Soon, they went off to Spain, where they went face-to-face with the Spanish Inquisition. The reason why they wanted Gabriel for heresy was because of Gabriel's ability to communicate to the dead. Gabriel was even sentenced to be shown bare for every noble in Spain to see.

After being humiliated in Spain, Gabriel set off to France to seek sanctuary in Notre Dame. There, they would meet their first patron and employer, Legislator Raoulin De Caux. During their employment, they were given a decent living as well as commissions of erotic illustrations, as Raoulin was also promiscuous. In the first few days of employment, Gabriel wasn't allowed to visit other people, especially the poor and marginalized such as Francis De Martin and Clopin Trouillefou. However, Raoulin lightened up on allowing Gabriel to meet with their friends sometime after. Gabriel would occasionally accompany Raoulin as he would go out to the market, to shops, and to the brothel where Jaqueline resided. They were also given extra pay as they and Raoulin would plan out special events (i.e., Raoulin's birthday party).

As Raoulin rekindled the relationship with Jaqueline and formed a bond with his son Beau, Raoulin would plan on his marriage with Jaqueline and plan on his fraternity with Frollo. Thus, Gabriel was once again paid extra to plan the wedding and adelphopoiesis. As Raoulin, Frollo, Jaqueline, and Beau would live their perfect lives, Gabriel found love with Francis and Clopin in the Court of Miracles. Then, everything changed when Esmeralda came to perform for the Feast of Fools two years later. Gabriel would find Raoulin's defense for Frollo's actions for arson while searching extremely reprehensible and borderline vile, as Gabriel would also care for Esmeralda. As Frollo died and Raoulin fell into a severe depression, Gabriel grew more concerned for their employer's mental health. They were even told to summon Frollo's ghost for Raoulin, and it would take an emotional toll on them. Just as Gabriel considered on getting paid just to summon Frollo, it was already too late, as Raoulin would seek out Quasimodo to fight to the death. However, Raoulin would die of a heart attack before he could even fight Quasimodo. Gabriel would arrange Raoulin's funeral as one last task for their employer. Ever since then, Gabriel resided with Clopin and Francis in the Court of Miracles, and would be annoyed by Raoulin's ghost whenever he visited them.
