Attack Potency: Low Complex Multiverse level (As one of the most powerful servants of God and one of the four cardinal Archangels that command His armies, Gabriel likely resides in Beriah, the "Supreme Angel World," and the realm of existence that lays immediately above Yetzirah, existing in a more sublime state and providing the basis for its existence much like it provides the basis for the material world) | Outerverse level (Exists as an archetype, a shapeless, fundamental unit of the collective unconscious inhabiting the realm of Atziluth, beyond the concept of dimensions entirely, and yet to be shaped into a lower state by the thoughts and emotions of humanity)

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
More detailed information on this character's skill list can be found in the Megami Tensei wiki
Buffs and Debuffs: A set of skills that, as the name implies, allows the caster to greatly amplify their own physical attributes and reduce that of their foes, thus allowing one to stand up to much stronger opponents by closing or even reversing the gap in power between them. Outside of gameplay limitations, they can be stacked indefinitely, and sufficient usages of buffs allow the caster to survive attacks that would otherwise obliterate them with only minor injuries and amplify their speed to the point of completely outspeeding opponents that could previously predict all of their movements, while debuffs have a directly proportional effect on the enemy's statistics.
* Luster Candy: Increases all statistics of an entire party (Strength, speed and durability) by one rank.
* Concentrate: Gabriel holds back her own power, allowing her to launch a charged attack with far more offensive power than her normal strikes.
Almighty Attacks: The highest class of spells in the Megami Tensei franchise, consisting largely of powerful non-elemental attacks that have the special property of completely bypassing any resistances or immunities that a target may possess, be them innate or magically enforced, the latter of which including anything from reflective barriers to items that distort the very laws of the universe in order to protect the user from all forms of damage, and they are likewise unable to blocked, drained or generally defended against.
* Megidolaon: Unleashes a wave of destructive energy which deals heavy damage to all foes, tapping into the pale light of divinity that reigns over destruction itself and engulfing them in "the complete annihilation beyond death."
* Summon Spirit: 20% chance of inflicting the "mute" status effect on an enemy, sealing away their magical abilities.
