This man, this deadly creature single-handedly took down Overwatch. It took a few years after his little “incident” but he did it. Every member of Overwatch was finally off his list, finally down for the count. Most of the members weren’t easy to track while others were like child’s play.
Talon had to hand it to him, they didn’t think he’d achieve this goal but who were they to complain when their rival was finally just a memory? They had a sick idea to enhance Reaper’s abilities further, in the end, it was just an excuse to experiment on him - he had grown so used to it by now.
After everything that’s happened to him, Reaper only slipped farther and farther into his darkness. No thanks to Talon – actually, scratch that, because it was all thanks to Talon he sunk deeper and deeper into madness. His skin showed such transactions. He no longer looked like a dead Gabriel Reyes but a horrible looking monster.
Teeth showing from where his cheeks would be but no longer - much like Mileena from Mortal Kombat, his eyes now blood red instead of a lighter shade of red - fully showing his growing anger and madness, smoke rising from his skin - particularly from his opened cheeks, his mouth and a few scars upon his face. His voice sounds wispier, more ghost like and less human. Most people would ask what he’s said but are too afraid to for he could kill with just them opening their mouth.
It’s been years since Talon’s experiments on him – when it fact it was only several months. This nightmarish creature no longer wanted to be the subject to madness. Reaper knew of the guard's rotations in his short span of being a test subject, he studied them closely, remembered the exact time someone showed and when someone left. Knowing these facts, he used them against his former allies. When someone left he was that much closer to escaping, waiting for the right person to enter and exit.
Once that person did, he struck – oh, but he didn’t aim to just knock this person out…no, he ripped them limb from limb and rather easily too thanks to his new found abilities. Now he only went room to room killing his former bosses and comrades. If you’ve ever played Outlast, that’s most certainly how the Talon base ended up looking. People running for their lives, blood everywhere, people losing their minds, people killing themselves so that Reaper couldn’t that the satisfaction of watching their souls leave their bodies. It was a true nightmare, one Talon never expected would happen within their very walls.
Now that both Talon and Overwatch have destroyed this man – no – creature was finally free. It was free to walk this earth however it pleased. But at what cost?
Note: He no longer works with Talon. In fact, he destroyed Talon - yes, even my Gabriel muse. Reaper is a free spirit walking the earth to do as he pleases.
Gabriel and/or Reaper have been transported into a fantasy world. Final Fantasy, World of Warcraft, D&D, Diablo, etc etc.
Reaper is an Au Ra in this verse - meaning he’s very dragon-like; scales, horns and tall stature. Gabriel is a Hyur (human).
Reaper is a Dark Knight (tank job) and Black Mage (magical ranged dps). He can switch between these jobs at any time, even during combat. He can go from wielding a giant broadsword (Dark Knight) to wielding a staff (Black Mage) to cast magic with.
Gabriel is a Gunbreaker (tank job) and a Dancer (physical ranged dps). He also can change job/class at any time even during combat. However, he prefers to remain as a Gunbreaker for the most part. He goes dancer if he really needs to do so or if he wants to release some stress (usually does so alone, though). Gabriel has been dabbling in the arts of summoning and has become a Summoner (magical ranged dps). Along with Ifrit, Garuda, Titan, Demi-Bahamut and Demi-Phoenix, Gabriel can also summon Wraith.
With the release of Reaper coming, that's also a job Gabriel can be. His void Avatar would be either Reaper or Wraith (or both).
Wraith and Reaper are SCPs. Wraith is Euclid class while Reaper is Keter class. Gabi is a D-Class personnel and is used mostly as the main test subject for Reaper and Wraith.
Wraith is more willing to work with the SCP personnel if it escapes it’s containment. However, if they actually like doing experiments on it, it’ll go to just Keter class (difficult to contain) and no longer work with the personnel. They’re likely not doing experiments ON Wraith but WITH Wraith. Gabriel would be the subject of these experiments, Wraith doing no harm to the man.
Reaper on the other hand would so they just leave him alone save for a specific doctor/scientist (Moira or Angela or someone else in the medical or science fields) coming in to ask him a few questions about what the fuck he is. They’re in separate rooms so Reaper cannot harm the doctor/scientist but can still communicate.
When the SCP Foundation place they’re at has a containment breach…Wraith is gonna be a protector of Gabi. When I say “containment breach” I mean…all SCPs that are/were in containment are now able to escape containment. So, all difficult to contain SCPs (keter class) and everything are now free to do whatever. Several of which are violent and wish to do harm.
Reaper becomes best friends with SCP-049 (The Plague Doctor) because he’s surprisingly not infected and needing to be ‘cured’ but also bc a real life plague doctor?? y'know reaper is gonna be all over that. That’s his aesthetic.
However, that’s bad news for Gabi because he'll be a target of 049 and several of the other SCPs…and the guards and those that are sent to re-contain the SCPs. All of which want D-class personnel dead. So, Wraith just “well, that’s not fair– y'all hired them to put their lives on the line with several of these SCPs…and y'all just gonna kill ‘em? nah man”
Gabriel was previously a level 4 researcher in the facility but was ‘deranked’ into a Class-D personnel because of his unauthorized research with one of the SCPs.
Of course, Reaper is a Fallen Angel in this verse. This can be just his fall from grace (Gabriel maybe?) or he was…tempted by darker and crueler means and that lost him his ‘grace’.
I like the idea that Gabriel (yes, the archangel but also Gabi) was being corrupted or otherwise needed to be “cleansed”. However, this cleansing had unexpected side effects. It made an entire copy of Gabi although a Fallen Archangel version to signify its “badness”. Reaper is a Fallen Angel so that means blackened wings! Black feathers! Clawed hands (bc I wanna keep those >:c)! Also, some blackened limbs (particularly his hands up to just past his elbows and his feet to his knees).
He has no memories either! Essentially a “just born Angel” but not welcomed into Heaven. Has to make his own way in life which includes having to take up being a human…which he isn’t entirely great at. Underestimates his strength for simple tasks, someone gets hurt and they’re healed by his touch, his wings come out anytime he has no shirt on so showering is a pain in the ass so he settles for a “grumpy bath” (really he’s just sitting on the floor of the shower with his knees to his chest and the water hitting the top of his head, pouring over him, as he wears an annoyed expression - meanwhile his wings are just splayed out wildly against the shower wall and bathroom as a whole…I mean he has six wings so not a lot of room to work with tbh).
Would totally pull a Lucifer (the show) here and attempt to rip his wings out AT LEAST once. “They get in the way!” He could just never go without a shirt and has tried to do so once but sitting in a soaking wet shirt from a shower is not ideal. -100/10, would never try again.
Yep, mentioned this in one of my answers to an ask yesterday. And by “mentioned” I mean “my mind thought of it on the spot”. I’m not deep into the DS lore so WIP? This could also be extended into a Bloodborne AU as well which I feel would be better imo because I know that one a bit better in terms of why we do what we do.
Gabriel is The Winter Soldier (+ Jack is Captain America)
Reaper is Death personified
Wraith is Selene Gallio (although genderless instead of female)
Fullmetal Alchemist x Overwatch crossover.
Reaper is a homunculus while Gabriel is just a regular everyday person, he’s only barely learned some alchemy.
The Overwatch universe is suddenly very much like the LoZ one.
Soldier is Link, Reaper is Ganon, Gabriel is Dark/Shadow Link – or you could reverse Gabriel and Reaper’s roles.
Reaper and Wraith are both demons.
Gabriel is a priest.
Other’s who wish to use this AU can be either. Or even a paranormal investigator or a normal person.
Reaper and Gabriel are vampires.
Classes are from SWToR
Reaper (Sith) - Sith Warrior, Sith Inquisitor or Bounty Hunter
Gabriel (Republic) - Smuggler or Trooper
Wraith (Sith) - Sith Warrior, Sith Inquisitor or Imperial Agent
Practically the lowdown of this verse is that… Whoever Gabriel or Reaper loves or wishes to protect can die… Now, I mean that this fate cannot be escaped but it can be pushed back so long as they trade another’s life for their loved ones.
If Reaper/Gabriel fail to do this, their loved one will die (their death is practically randomly generated – they could have a heart attack, could be hit by a car, could drown, etc. etc.) And, no, Gabriel/Reaps do not know how their loved one will die so they cannot save them from their fate that way.
