He shows up on occasion to the Oblivion Bar where he and Lucifer engage in entertaining debates or perform songs together. While Gabriel did enjoy teaching this eager new angel, he still kept sneaking off to Earth.Īfter just five years with his apprentice, Gabriel told the Presence to make her the new Metatron as he was taking a break. To keep Gabriel busy, the Presence had him take on a very young Ariel as an apprentice. Not feeling welcome in Heaven due to his siblings' jealousy, Gabriel still spent much of his time on Earth. Gabriel's return to the position of Metatron angered some of his siblings who felt as though they were better deserving of the title due to their loyalty. Lucifer Morningstar convinced Gabriel to return to the Silver City despite the other envoys from Heaven having previously failed. and then didn't return to the Silver City, for nearly two-thousand years, remaining on Earth until the Presence sent Amenadiel to strike a deal with Lucifer. When he was sent back to Earth with a message to deliver, Gabriel was quite angry with what he was being asked to do, but he did it. Gabriel could not get enough of food.Īfter being tasked with giving a child to a Galilean woman destined to give birth to a 'Planetary Shaman', Gabriel was called back to the Silver City and kept busy in other parts of the cosmos for thirty years. When he wasn't summoned by his creator, Gabriel usually chose to remain on Earth, exploring its many cultures and its cuisine. A lot of it was just visiting with prophets, teaching them about the Presence, or acting as their guide through the part of the Dreaming known as the Garden of Forking Ways as they were given visions of their purpose. Gabriel did a lot of other stuff as the Metatron. After a decade on Earth, Gabriel returned to the Silver City and there was summoned to the Silver Throne where the Presence appointed him to the position of Metatron - the Voice of God. When the Presence's first human followers, Adam and Eve, were cast out of the Garden of Eden and thus became mortal, Gabriel volunteered to show them what they'd need to know to survive the wilderness and enter civilization. Likewise, he did not cast a vote for Lucifer's exile. When Lucifer rebelled, Gabriel refused to take arms against his brother, calling for a diplomatic solution to be found. Perhaps by design, Gabriel was known for being very compassionate, both towards his family and humanity in general. Gabriel helped in this endeavor, becoming the archangel over humanity, art, and language. Gabriel was born on the 'sixth day' when the Presence supposedly created Adam and Eve. Gabriel is the sixth and youngest surviving archangel of the original seven archangels created by the Presence.
