Gabriel

Archetype: Human Street Samurai

The Angels were once a shadowrunning group dedicated to righting the wrongs done by various corporations. During one of their runs to free captive test subjects, many of which were children, they were captured themselves and subjected to an experiment which resulted in the complete reversal of their personalities. Now known as the Fallen Angels, this shadowrunning group works for the corps and only for the corps.

Gabriel is the leader of this demented collection who engage primarily in kidnapping and the disposal of test subjects who have "failed". All wear leather clothing with a burning inverted cross depicted in full color on the back of their jackets. Gabriel is psychotically intelligent and plans every run with unparalleled attention to detail. He is always armed with nothing more than a silenced Manhunter which he has specialized in using for many, many years. To say he is deadlier than Satan with it would be an incredible understatement.

Angela

Archetype: Human Street Samurai

Angela was given the highest dose of the psychosis-inducing chemical the group was administered which not only eliminated virtually all of her emotions, other than hate, but also destroyed most of ability to feel physical pain. Her face and hands are a web of cuts and scars resulting from the times she has injured herself with her own weapons. He specialty is bladed weaponry, particularly the sword, and she is also proficient in the arena of throwing weapons. She speaks in seething, lithiumic monotone through her teeth which are constantly gritted and grinding.

Apocrypha

Archetype: Elven Mage

Apocrypha's magical ability was all but destroyed due to the experiment's effects and she has now focused on the use of a single, custom made spell she calls Plague. If effective the spell results in the creation of a fast acting disease in the target, similar to the Bubonic Plague, for which a cure is unknown. The casting of this spell usually brings Apocrypha to the brink of death, however, and is rarely used. She is also skilled in the area of poison and the delivery of such poisons through the use of projectile weapons.

Soul

Archetype: Dwarf Street Samurai

Soul dealt with the experiments better than the rest and has remained fairly sane. He continues to work with the Fallen Angels because of constant threats against his life if he decided to leave. Angela seems especially determined to keep him as part of the group for some unknown reason and has tortured him on a few occasions to emphasize this desire. Soul is in almost constant pain as the result of ulcers and other stress related illnesses. He is skilled in explosives and small arms fire.
