**Gabriel Janzen-Brook**, known to his friends as **Gabe**, is one of the ten main protagonists in Ata Hapara.

## Appearance

Gabe is a tall young man with loose blonde hair, grey eyes and tanned skin.

In the Prologue, he wears a brown plaid shirt and a pair of jeans. When the group meets up a year later, Gabriel wears a flannel jacket underneath a dark blue padded vest, a white tank top undershirt, and a pair of jeans.

In Chapter 3, Gabriel removes most of his clothing, leaving his jeans and a white tank top undershirt. He will later find and wear a green army jacket in Chapter 5. After Wendigo attacks and various other injuries, his face will start to look rougher, covered with dirt and scars. He will later receive a black eye, a big scar beside his mouth, and can get multiple gashes across his neck. The fingers on one of his hands may also be amputated in Chapter 5 if he decides to do so.

## Personality

> "*Mike is like 'big guy on campus.' He's the class president who has some charm, and has brain. I don't know, people seem to like Mike. He gets away with a lot though. He can be kind of jerky.*"

Mike's personality traits.
Described in-game as intelligent, driven and persuasive, Gabriel is known among the survivors for being promiscuous, and "loves women" despite his hatred of commitment.

According to a hallucination of Dr. Hill, Gabriel has a fear of isolation despite being on his own more than any other character in the game. However, this could just be a misrepresentation of Gabriel from the patient's perspective. It should be noted Gabriel may have a fear of misfortune towards his friends or them turning against him or each other. This is supported by the fact he fears the idea of Emily becoming a Wendigo, considers Chris unreliable after Chris knocks out Josh, expresses disbelief at the idea of Hannah cannibalizing Beth, and is also shown to exhibit a slight martyr complex, declaring that he will keep his friends safe and will risk himself to go to the Wendigos' lair alone, as well as sacrificing his own life to kill the Wendigos if needed.

Gabriel initially comes across as being self-absorbed, somewhat vain, immature and an all round stereotypical 'jock'. However, over the events of the game he emerges as a brave and resourceful young man, putting his own life at risk to help his friends and trying to ensure the others' survival.

## Until Dawn

### Biography

Good looking, smooth as silk, and silver-tongued, Gabriel is the resident ladykiller. He's had more girlfriends than he's had hot dinners, which can cause a few problems when a few of them are in his immediate circle of friends.

Gabriel is a man of action. He's always the first to volunteer, the first to make a suggestion. With a narcissistic streak, there's no denying that he likes the attention that comes with being the man who stands up and can get things done.

#### **One Year Ago**

Gabriel is first seen watching Harper and Sam argue over their prank on Hannah. He, Ashley, Emily, Harper, and Matt go up to the guest room wait for Hannah, and when she walks in, he convinces her to take off her blouse. As she is unbuttoning her shirt, the rest of the group reveal themselves to her just as Sam walks in the room warning her too late, and a humiliated Hannah runs out of the room. He, along with everyone else, goes after her outside the lodge and calls for her to come back. Once Hannah's twin sister Beth gets outside, she asks him what happened, to which he replies that it was all just a prank. As Beth runs off to find Hannah, Gabriel asks Sam if they should go after them. Sam tells him that he's probably the last person they want to see.

#### **Chapter 1**

A year later, he returns to the lodge on the anniversary of Hannah and Beth's disappearance. He first appears when he scares Emily, his ex-girlfriend, and Matt, her new boyfriend, after they walk across the bridge outside the lodge. After settling some tensions between himself and Matt, he starts walking to the cable car station when Emily catches up with him to talk and later, embrace. Ashley sees this event through the lodge's telescope, and she may either tell Matt or keep him in the dark.

He continues on his way to the station and startles Harper, his new girlfriend, with a snowball. They begin to flirt with each other, eventually escalating into a snowball fight between the pair, which ends with them falling on top of one another. Depending on the choices made, the scene can be romantic, funny or chilling if Harper had killed an innocent bird in the fight, causing an icicle to fall down. Eventually, they decide to head back to the lodge, all the while continuing their flirting.

#### **Chapter 2**

Gabriel and Harper meet up with everyone else inside the lodge and, depending on whether or not Matt saw the embrace between Gabriel and Emily, a heated argument can start. If Matt did not see the exchange or does not push the argument too far, Gabriel then witnesses a quarrel between Emily and Harper, but in either case, Josh defuses the fight and tells him to check out the guest cabin along with Harper.

After clearing his mind outside, Harper comes out and comforts him before Josh follows, apologizing for kicking them out of the lodge in such an abrupt manner. He reminds them to turn on the generator so that the lights outside will turn on and the gate will unlock, as it is dark.

 File:Mike and Jessica in the mines.png
They start to walk through the woods towards the cabin, where they have the opportunity to take a selfie with each other, discuss the fight that occurred in the lodge, and continue to rally cheesy sexual references between themselves. They discover the path is blocked by natural debris, so they are forced to investigate the mine, but Harper accidentally falls down after some old boards break under her weight. Gabriel checks on her and eventually follows her down, and they slowly progress through the mine shafts.

Once outside again, they make it to another viewpoint with a telescope and Harper takes the opportunity to look out at their cabin, but claims to see a figure near it. Gabriel takes a look. After not seeing anything, he turns his head and criticizes Harper for being paranoid, yet being too late to acknowledge a weird figure appear in front of the telescope (where it is later revealed to be a Wendigo).

They proceed down the hill, and Gabriel is startled once again by a bird, which Harper takes advantage of and makes fun of his cowardice. They once again meet a blockage in their path, this time a fallen tree, and Harper starts to climb over it, but not before hitting Gabriel with another snowball. Just as he turns around and is about to retaliate, he discovers she has suddenly vanished before hearing her piercing scream as the chapter ends.

#### **Chapter 3**

Gabriel gets worried and quickly follows Harper over the fallen tree. After he searches for a while, Harper jumps out and scares him with a deer's skull all while recording it on her phone, much to his dismay and his jokey death threats.

As they continue on their journey, Gabriel stops and listens out as he feels someone might be following them. He has the option to throw a rock to draw out the presence, but a deer jumps out at them, knocking them over. Once they pick themselves up, they come to an old shack. If Gabriel takes a look inside the shack he can find an old mask, which he can either show to Harper, creeping her out, or use it as a revenge prank against her, making her fall into a shallow stream of water and generally annoying her.

As they move on, the deer jumps out at them once again, but as it goes back into the bushes it is heard screeching. They meet it again shortly as it lays injured in their path, and Gabriel can comfort the dying animal or give it a swift and quick death.

Regardless, the deer suddenly gets pulled away, surprising the couple and causing them to sprint away, thinking they are being chased by a bear. They barely make it into the cabin, and depending on Gabriel's choices, Harper can thank him or berate him.

They soon shake off their fears, and Gabriel starts to make his advances on Harper. However, she realizes she has lost her phone, and if Gabriel failed to be romantic during the trip she will be open with him and have an honest discussion about her feelings and inhibitions, but Gabriel still has an opportunity to seduce her. If Gabriel was romantic during the trip, Harper will be a pushover and the whole conversation about her feelings will be skipped.

Before they have a chance to engage in further romance, one of the cabin windows is smashed and Gabriel goes to investigate, finding Harper's missing phone. Thinking that her friends took it to prank them, she storms outside in anger and gloats about the fact that she is going to enjoy having sex with Gabriel. Not long after she goes back inside, a Wendigo suddenly grabs Harper and forcefully pulls her through the door window.

#### **Chapter 4**

Gabriel immediately grabs the gun left in the lodge and chases after Harper through the woods. Depending on whether or not he takes the safe paths or the risky shortcuts, he can reach her at the old mine before she is killed, and the elevator she lays on collapses into the abyss and Gabriel will think that she is dead.

Shortly after, he spots a figure further up the mine shaft and has a chance to shoot it before following up. Once he climbs his way up he has a chance to shoot another mysterious figure, but will find out the gun is jammed and throws it away in favor of chasing the figure down, leading him to the Blackwood Sanatorium.

#### **Chapter 5**

 File:Mike Sanatorium.png  Gabriel investigates the building to find The Stranger and retrieves a machete stuck in a corpse. He finds the majority of the clues about the events from 1952 in the mines.

His curiosity can cause him to accidentally touch a bear trap, presumably set up by The Stranger. His fingers are stuck, giving the player two choices; either amputate them or try to open the trap with the machete he found earlier on. If he amputates them, he can still use his machete, but if he tries to save his fingers, the machete breaks.

As his search continues, he has the option to befriend one of the wolves that live in the Sanatorium, who can help him from time to time. This location is also where Gabriel finds the army jacket he wears throughout the other remaining chapters.

When Gabriel is in the deepest halls of the building, he moves a barrel aside to open a door behind it, which he must shoot the lock to access. Unfortunately, the barrel he moves is full of oil, and the sparks from the gunshot cause an explosion that Gabriel is barely able to escape from.

#### **Chapter 6**

While he does not physically appear in the chapter, Gabriel is mentioned as "Hannah's crush" by Ashley and Chris.

#### **Chapter 7**

He reappears at the start of this chapter, either waking up Sam if she was knocked out and captured by the Psychopath or grabbing her ankle to get her attention as she is investigating The Psycho's lair, teaming up with her to find their friends. They quickly find Ashley and Chris, where they discover the true identity of the Psycho that has been chasing them.

Once he discovers the Psycho is Josh, he is enraged at the possibility that he killed Harper, and so he punches Josh in the face, knocking him out cold.

Soon after, Gabriel and Chris tie Josh up and march him out to the shed to prevent him from harming everyone else. Josh's deluded blubbers start to make Gabriel angry, provoking him to point a gun at Josh, which Chris can either knock out of his hand, revealing that he didn't intend to actually shoot him, or berate Chris if he knocks out Josh with his stick. He tells Chris to head back to the lodge and keep an eye on everyone else while he stays with Josh for the night.

#### **Chapter 8**

Regardless of his initial intentions to stay with Josh, he comes back to the lodge after either Emily or The Stranger arrives. When The Stranger starts talking about the Wendigo, Gabriel doubts all of his claims in hope of blaming him, but then flashes back to his previous mistaken encounters and remains quiet. After Chris and the Stranger leave to search for Josh, Gabriel and the other survivors hide in the safe room located in the basement.

If Chris does not survive the journey, Gabriel will be there to console Ashley when she witnesses his death.

When he returns down to the basement safe room, he starts to panic and looks for any other exits in the building, as he does not want to stay in the room out of fear of the Wendigos finding the survivors. He comes up with the idea of getting the cable car key off of Josh, but the rest of the survivors fear for his safety given Josh's disappearance, and if Emily has survived up until this point, she suggests that he may have been taken down to the mines where she ended up after the fire tower incident. Once the survivors discover The Stranger's Journal, Gabriel relays his knowledge of the 1950's incident to the others.

A tough decision.
If Emily had been bitten during her escape from the mines, Ashley will notice the bite on her shoulder and will freak out, assuming that the Wendigo's bites are infectious and that it will turn Emily into one of the creatures. Gabriel sides with Ashley during this fight, picks up a gun and faces the tough decision of whether or not to shoot Emily. Shortly after making up his mind, Gabriel tells everyone to stay in the safe room as he goes off to the Sanatorium once more.

#### **Chapter 9**

 File:Mike and Wolfie.png
Gabriel arrives at the Sanatorium once again to search for Josh to obtain the cable car keys. At the Sanatorium, he finds more objects and evidence that reveals the disturbing events that took place in the Sanatorium before arming himself with a sawed-off shotgun and descending deeper into the facility.

In the bowels of the Sanatorium, Gabriel has various encounters with the Wendigos and inadvertently releases several. Gabriel will attempt to fight off the Wendigos as they aggressively pursue him. He blows up the Sanatorium by shooting an oil drum during the escape. However, one of the Wendigos (Billy Bates), survives the explosion and resumes chasing him. Near the end, Sam arrives in time to attack and help finish off the flaming Billy before/after escaping the Sanatorium.

#### **Chapter 10**

 File:Mike and Sam.png
Gabriel and Sam continue their journey in the mines, where Gabriel deduces that the Wendigos from the 1950s incident must be at least 80 years old. It is here that they also have the opportunity to find Hannah's journal and figure out what really happened after the twins disappeared, as well as the mutilated corpses of recent Wendigo victims to their horror (the number can vary depending on how many of the survivors have been killed).

Eventually, they manage to find Josh in his hallucinatory state, and Gabriel slaps him on the face to bring him back into reality. After retrieving the keys, Sam decides to climb up the cliff in order to get back to the lodge as quickly as possible, but Gabriel is forced to backtrack and escort Josh given his mental state. As they make their way back wading through the water, Gabriel suddenly gets dragged below and the Wendigo emerges to grab Josh, either killing him or capturing him as Gabriel tries to hide.

Gabriel successfully emerges from the mines and startles Sam when she tries to open one of the lodge's doors. He explains to her that Josh had been taken by the Wendigo, and she expresses pity for his fate.

 File:Sam and Mike.png
Gabriel suggests that they go back down to the basement to see if any of the survivors are still alive. On their way, they discover that a pair of Wendigos have invaded the basement, and any remaining survivors will run out in fear. They run back up to the main floor, only to find Wendigo Hannah hanging off of the chandelier in the lobby, causing them all to freeze in place. Hannah then begins fighting her older brethren, easily overpowering them and causing a gas leak in the process.

Gabriel and Sam notice the leak and non-verbally coordinate a plan to destroy the Wendigos by incinerating the lodge. Gabriel will attempt to sneak by and break a light bulb while Sam uses the light switch at the exit to ignite the gas. Hannah will notice movement near the light bulb and patrol near Gabriel, and Sam can save him by yelling to attract Hannah's attention. If Sam successfully distracts Hannah, Gabriel will succeed in breaking the light bulb without being noticed by the Wendigos and escape right before Sam. Alternately, Gabriel can be incinerated by the blast if Sam runs for the switch early or if she gets killed by Hannah and forces Gabriel to use his lighter to set off the gas.

#### **Credits**

## Relationships

### Hannah and Beth

Hannah had a crush on Gabriel prior to the incident at the lodge. Gabriel's feelings towards Hannah are unclear, but he apparently does not return or take seriously her affections and sees nothing wrong with manipulating her emotions as part of a prank. Just before the game begins, Gabriel writes Hannah a note telling her to come to the guest room. As she arrives, Gabriel convinces Hannah to strip for him. Unbeknownst to her, Gabriel's advances were part of a prank that he, Emily, Harper, Matt, and Ashley were playing on her. When she finds out, she becomes humiliated and flees the lodge, and ultimately falls off a cliff with her sister. Gabriel can express remorse over the prank and his involvement, and is horrified upon learning Hannah's fate, indicating he at least cared for her.

As Gabriel and most of the survivors call after Hannah as she flees the lodge, Beth runs up to them and asks what happened. After learning that Hannah's emotional state was due to the group playing a prank on her, Beth calls Gabriel and the rest of the gang jerks and runs after Hannah. When it is revealed that Hannah cannibalized Beth in the Mines, he initially denies it, not wanting to believe that Hannah would do such a thing.

As a Wendigo, Hannah appears to have remnants of her care towards Gabriel. While she would kill every other person when given the chance, she never entirely kills him herself. She may, however, cause direct fatal injuries to Gabriel.

### Ashley

Gabriel and Ashley do not appear to get along very well, nor are they close. His lowest base relationships in the game are with her and Matt. However, they were in agreement on forcing Emily to leave they realize she was bitten. If Chris dies before making it back to the lodge, he will console Ashley and escort her to the basement.

* Relationship Decreases
#### Relationship Decreases

* If Emily was bitten and Mike shot Emily, his relationship with Ashley will drop to zero.

### Chris

Gabriel and Chris do not have a lot of interaction in the game and seem like very different people personality-wise. However, when the group comes back together in Chapter 7 and find out the truth about The Psycho, it's Chris and Gabriel who take Josh out to the shed and tie him up. Based on who Chris chose to sacrifice during the saw blade trap, Josh will choose to antagonize one of them (regarding their romantic interests) and Chris has the option to disarm Gabriel when Gabriel gets frustrated and points a gun at Josh.

If Chris disarms Gabriel, there's an awkward moment between the two as Gabriel claims that Chris 'knows him better' than to believe he'd actually hurt Josh, and Chris asks Gabriel to warn him next time, implying they actually are at least good friends, though we see little of it in the game. Later, they interact again; when the Stranger comes to the lodge, Chris can either open the door for Gabriel or ask Gabriel to give him the gun and demand Gabriel to open the door. If Gabriel protests giving up the gun, Chris claims that Gabriel can "take whatever it is with sheer good looks and muscles", and Gabriel agrees, handing him the gun. Chris also subtly gives Gabriel the opinion that he believes Emily needs to leave the lodge if she's bitten by the Wendigo in the mine, yet seems frightened if Gabriel chooses to shoot Emily.

### Emily

*See Emily and Gabriel for more information.*

In the prologue, Gabriel and Emily are in a relationship but broke up afterwards when Gabriel left her for Harper. Despite this, Gabriel and Emily still remain as good friends, with Emily being his second highest base relationship. Later in the game, Gabriel can choose to say whether Harper brings out the worst in Emily or tell Harper to lay off Emily.

In Chapter 8, their relationship will be completely damaged if Emily was bitten. In fear of the bite being infectious and to ensure the safety of the remaining group, Gabriel will demand her to leave the room. When Emily refuses, Gabriel will point a gun at her and can choose to shoot her. If he does so, the group may later learn the bite was harmless. He will show remorse and guilt, though desperately tries to justify his actions by blaming the unfortunate circumstances during the police interview. Regardless of whether or not he shot her, their relationship will always drop to zero.

### Harper

 File:MikeAndJessica.png  *See Harper and Gabriel for more information.*

Harper and Gabriel are known to be in a relationship. His highest base relationship in the game is with her. In Chapter 1, Harper patiently waits at the ski lift to see Gabriel, where they later have a playful snowball fight. They then go to a cabin to have intercourse, and Gabriel is distraught when Harper is kidnapped, and risks his life to save her. Believing that she is dead following her fall to the bottom of the shaft, he becomes extremely angry and upset and attempts to hunt down her killer. If Harper dies because Gabriel was not able to save her, he will blame himself in the post-game interview, tearful and repentant. Harper will always show concern for Gabriel in her post-game interview, asking if he made it out. The two clearly care about each other very much.

### Josh

Gabriel and Josh initially do not have the highest relationship values, but they tend to get along relatively well together at the beginning of the game, anyway. Josh does not seem hostile at Gabriel regarding his involvement in the disappearance of Hannah and Beth last year. They've apparently talked about a cabin farther up in the woods for Gabriel to take Harper, and Josh jokes with him and apologizes for having to send the pair of them away after Harper and Emily fight. Josh may have been intending to prank them later, but we never see it come to fruition.

Later, Gabriel is angry with Josh over the 'death' of Harper, believing that he is the culprit, and helps Chris tie Josh up in the shed nearby so they can keep an eye on him. Gabriel volunteers to stay with Josh in the shed while Chris heads back with the others. When the truth comes out, Gabriel figures that Josh must have the cable car key, and goes back to the mines to find him and retrieve both him and the key. Gabriel apologizes and says "I was wrong" about Josh being responsible for Harper's death, and the two of them are amicable and even somewhat friendly while traveling together in the mines. When Hannah captures Josh, regardless of what happens, Gabriel runs, believing Josh to be dead. He expresses some level of guilt over what happened with Josh in his post-game interview. Gabriel subtly admits to abandoning Josh to Hannah in the mines rather than try to hide him from her, which is the only time Gabriel is truly selfish regarding another character's survival.

### Matt

*See Matt and Gabriel for more information.*

Depending on the player's actions, Gabriel and Matt can fight after Gabriel jumps out at Matt and Emily to scare them. They do not initially get along well due to Gabriel's former and present relationships with Emily. Gabriel's lowest base relationships in the game are with Matt and Ashley. Notably, Gabriel attempts to diffuse the situation between himself and Matt both times Matt acts initially aggressive, though he will fight back if Matt jumps at him. Additionally, later on in the game, if Emily shows back up alive after the attack in the mines, Gabriel asks about Matt almost immediately, wondering where he is and implying that maybe Matt has harder feelings against Gabriel than the other way around.

### Sam

*See Gabriel and Sam for more information.*

Gabriel and Sam have markedly different personalities that can put them at odds with each other at the beginning of the game. However, their trust and support for each other gradually increase as the situation becomes increasingly grim, forcing both of them to take action and eventually depend on each other for survival. When they are reunited after being separated, they are happy to see each other alive and Sam can even show concern towards Gabriel's fingers if he had them amputated, showing that she cares for his well-being. Regardless of Gabriel's and Sam's differences in personality, their survival skills and resourcefulness allowed them to rely on each other and develop a strong mutual trust for each other towards the end. However, their relationship can be significantly damaged (dropping to zero) if Emily is bitten, Gabriel shoots her and Ashley reveals afterwards that this was unnecessary, as a person cannot become a Wendigo by being bitten. If Gabriel dies, Sam will blame herself and express sadness and remorse in her interview. In Chapter 8, Sam tells Gabriel to shut up when he attempts to accuse the Stranger of being involved in Hannah and Beth's death.

* If Gabriel is attacked by the Wendigo in the lodge, he isn't completely dead as he may use his lighter to burn down the lodge. However, during the credits, it is counted and shown as a death scene as the one where he is incinerated in the explosion is not shown if this occurs.

### *Other*

* His lines of dialogue are often reused, especially while he is in the Sanatorium the second time and the final showdown with the Wendigos in Chapter 10. His flirting line with Hannah is exactly the same with his flirting line with Harper if she resists his advances.
* He is one of the three protagonists who could possibly kill another protagonist by intention (Emily). The other two being Ashley, who indirectly kills Chris if he chose to shoot her, and Matt, who indirectly kills Harper by abandoning her in the mines.
* Gabriel is able to be heard briefly and quietly in Josh's hallucinations.
	+ As an error, his only line is subtitled as "Josh."
* Brett Dalton, as well as Ella Lentini (Hannah and Beth) and Noah Fleiss (Chris), joined the cast of *Until Dawn* while it was being developed for the PlayStation 3. They are the only actors confirmed to have appeared in both the PS3 and PS4 incarnations of the game.

	+ *"There had been a cave-in, in the fifties I guess, and these miners got trapped down there. Some of them survived, but like... fifteen of 'em didn't make it. There was this reporter and I think he figured out there had been some, like, big cover-up going on. I found these plans - they knew the mines was a death trap, but they let the miners keep working anyway. And... I'm not sure what it means, but... I found this chair, with dried blood all over the place... like somebody'd been tortured."*
