Gabriel Barsch

Gabriel stands out from most of Madness Combat characters by having a fully expressive face, with a moving mouth and eyes (A trait he shares with characters such as Velour and Eshio), being capable of making exaggerated facial expressions depending on the situation.

He has light brown medium/long hair and mainly wears a yellow shirt (although he has been sometimes seen wearing a green shirt with bandages wrapped around the upper chest area, a green bandanna over his mouth, and two strips of band-aids over his forehead in an X formation, as well as having glowing red eyes[1]). Aside from these, he maintains the properties of most regular Madness characters.

In some more recent animations of his, his shirt seems to be tattered from walking and surviving in the Nevadean desert for long

Gabriel exhibits a somewhat hyperactive nature, rushing around and pulling stunts during his killing sprees. During fights he might be easy to take by suprise, or he might taunt his foes if he has the upper hand.

He has a notable love for coffee, and can often be seen drinking it, and although it may because of starvation, he had a notable interest in a hot dog in YELLOW.MP4, as well as a preference for adding Mustard before truly eating it.

His wacky attitude is amplified whenever he consumes coffee, giving him more adrenaline and energy to keep killing.

Gabriel demonstrates combat prowess on par with the average Madness Combat protagonist, meaning that he is a highly effective one-man army.

He demonstrates great physical durability and pain threshold, as he was able to survive being violently and repeatedly slammed into the ground by a G04LM[2], and was able to run away without much trouble almost immediately.

Although seemingly for comedic effect/rule of cool, Gabriel at certain points has displayed feats of supernatural powers; such as engulfing his fist in a black firey aura surrounded by a red glow[3], which adds an explosive effect to his punches, the ability to stretch his tongue out like a frog or a chameleon, which he used to steal an Agent's handgun[4], a type of scanner-like psychic power that allows him to explode heads[5], the ability to teleport or materialize himself using the medium of an A.T.P Agent's blood[6], the ability to take a massive leap and crash down with such force that it causes an explosion on impact[7]. He is also able to enter a super state of sorts, where his eyes begin to glow red and he gains the ability to emit lightning made from an energy that resembles his explosive punches[8].

Despite his various mysterious superpowers, Gabriel's fighting style relies on hand-to-hand-combat as well as the use of weaponry, be it improvised or practical.

Gabriel has made an appearance in the Paradigmadness 2 collab, where he is one of the multiple correspondants that must carry the package to the next correspondant. His situation was unique as he was not only intercepted by the Eye Monsters, but also by the A.A.M.O. in the deserts of Nevada. During this conflict, he is ultimately killed by a shot to the head execution-style as he does a successful last ditch effort to transport the package to a drone after being caught by a explosion.
