Personality: Gabriel generally displays a light-hearted, talkative, easy-going, witty and cheeky manner, but combines this with a somewhat egocentric sense of unstoppability when facing a challenge having never reached a obstacle he didn't easily overcome thus never finding and furthermore showing where his limits were. Gabriel has a unatural understanding of people and the world around him which he often displays insightfully. Within his purity and extraordinary gifts his angelic like demeanor however holds a gloomier interior he hides.
Gabriel from this sometimes uses a cheerful, energetic façade to mask inner emotions hiding a more sorrowful and burdened spirit. As seemingly kind hearted and good Gabriel is he is also lethally cunning and intelligent. Irresistibly charming, good looking, utterly captivating, and can be quite flirtatious. Again this social outgoing behavior is a cover up, deep down Gabriel is very lonely feeling he is alone with no other like him, no other that can understand him, and no other that can surprise him.
This no doubt comes not only from being a werewolf but from never being mentally overcome by any challenge presented. Over all Gabriel is the being that could walk into a room and the people there would flock to him for guidance and reassurance. He always had answers and solutions and he was always there to listen. He inspired confidence, spirit, and a sense of calming and security to those in his presence despite any situation surrounding them. Warm hearted, caring, and noble Gabriels troubles also lye in that he seeks to help not just everyone he can, but everyone period.
Gabriel can constantly be found putting the responsibility of other peoples happiness on his shoulders which in time can be very overwhelming even for him. Though besides his grim hidden emotions he burries within him he has other flaws, rebelious in nature always ready to try and push his limits so that he may actually find them Gabriel has many a time ignored authority and broken rules to find a puzzle he could not peice together, a mystery he could not solve, a mind he could not manipulate.
Gabriel is a natural Mentalist, using great mental acuity and what is known as cold, warm, and hot readings Gabriel tends to be able to decipher ones motives and histories with little if any prior knowledge of them. He is extremely perceptive on picking up on peoples reactions, actions, and body language. His knowledge of the bodies natural chemical and neurological reactions to specific catalysts has enabled him to be a practical walking lie detector and making it really hard for people to hide things from him.

History: Gabriel is the son of Victor and Gale Nikopol. Their name being of Ukrainian origin on his fathers side though that bloodline has thinned as the families been in america for a few generations. Victor was bitten by a werewolf 10 years before Gabriel was born on a camping trip he didn't even want to go on. At the time Gale was a med student and Victor was working for a highly prestigious law firm only been a lawyer for a few years. It took Victor sometime to figure out what happened and after his first transformation which he nearly killed Gale he dedicated his time to controlling his transformation. Over years Gale finally became the doctor she wanted to be and Victor became quite the renowned lawyer enabling him to open his own firm. Successful and quite wealthy they chose to have a child.
Gabriel grew up to be a very curious boy. He thrived on solving the puzzles of the world around him. He had a natural gift to read people that took most professionals years to develop within different fields of both science and psychology. If Gabriel wasn't melding in local law enforcement cases he was watching people breaking them down piece by piece based on what cloths they wore, how they talked, who they were with, how they were acting and reacting, the smallest of details could not escape the keen and perceptive eyes that Gabriel had. Then he put the pieces together creating a profile of the person he observed and before you knew it without ever talking to them he had who they were defines, what they liked, what they did for a living, if they were pretending to be someone they weren't, and so much.
It wasn't a exact science though more times than none Gabriel was correct and where he fell short he developed other skills to help aid him. Through time he found the little quirks in human nature, the reactions of the body, the catalysts that triggered specific behaviors and was able to determine if a person was lieing or not. Sometimes for medical reason or another it was simply impossible to tell but for the majority of the time Gabriel knew when someone was lieing to him or not. The way they twitched, where there eyes moved when they spoke, the pitch of their voice and how they spoke, what they did with their hands when they were talking to them, and how fast it took them to remember a event were just some of many things Gabriel focused in on.
People fascinated Gabriel more than anything else in the world because most things were easy to figure out and though for Gabriel people were pretty easy as well there were so many changing variables and so many people that were so impossibly different. Over thousands and thousands of generations not a single human entity ever mirrored another. Out of all the creatures of the world there were none more curious and stupidly brilliant than the human race and this amazed Gabriel. The mysteries of human nature and the puzzle of the human mind it was the one challenge Gabriel ever had any difficulty with thus he always seemed to take towards any activity that involved the two. When Gabriel turned 16 along with his father and to bother their surprise Gabriel transformed into a werewolf for the first time.
Luckily by this time Victor had a fairy good grasp of control over himself after transforming and was able to overpower Gabriel and prevent him from hurting anyone. Since then Victor had moved Gabriel to a place where he could live among other like him a place known as Mystic Falls, Virginia where a special highschool was made known to Victor. Since then Gabriels been attending still not feeling any better about himself then he did before. Also because of the move Gabriel was forced to miss a grade thus greatly upsetting him as he just turning twenty believe he should be seeing the world not attending highschool still as a senior.
Whatever may be, I'll have to find out....
