School Store Employee

Gabrielle "Gabby" Santos is one of the main PC in Aprilside Campaign. She's one of the three old PSA club members, and manages the school store with her friend Caleb Watanabe.

## Appearance

Gabby is a lanky girl with the height of 5'2 with Hispanic origins. She's healthy from the good care her parents gave, but she's susceptible to illness and gets sick easily.

Gabby has long, wavy brown hair that's usually put into a braid along with the strand of bright red hair, the direct effects from being a medium for her spirit, S.S.Mercury. Her eyes are of bright blue, and her overall appearance is similar to her mom, Joanne Santos.

## Personality

Gabby is a charismatic young girl who's very insightful of the people around her. She considers herself a dependable friend and sees stability and balance in the group as the most important thing, something she feels responsible for as one of the oldest members in the club.

Gabby is very gullible, adaptable and easily accepts new changes, open to change her mind after listening to every point of view. However, she could be very indecisive as forming opinions of her own is not her strong suit.

## History

Gabby was born in Baxborough until the age of 7, when her moms got married and moved to Aprilside (Madeline's hometown) to get away from Joanne's homophobic family.

Upon living in Aprilside, she began to develop spectral powers and learn about spirits under the guidance of Remy, her babysitter. She learnt how to take care of sick and hurt spirits and nurse them back to health, and was a keen explorer in the woods. She saved S.S.Mercury from a well and is a medium for it ever since.

## Abilities

### Spectral Abilities

Gabby discovered her spectral abilities and learnt to use it under the guidance of Remy and later Mr Charles and Miss Caroline. She learnt mainly of construction and manipulation of it and less on combat, due to her delicate health condition.

### Mercury's Abilities

Mercury grants Gabby the ability to manipulate temperature by absorbing/releasing heat energy. She's also able to tell the temperature fairly precisely with direct contact.

Because her sensitivity, she's easily sick due to drastic change of temperature, a nature repercussion to using too much of this ability.

### June's Magic

After knowing the existence of magic, Gabby began to learn magic from Yage's daughter June. She has learnt a simple spell that allows her to enchant items with fortune magic for a 24 hour period. She also gets a Foxy Soul Friend, June Jr.

### Palustag's Magic

After *Afternoon at the Art Museum* mission, Gabby obtained a small clay key (shaped like an unicorn) that allows her to open a portal to visit Palustag.

## Relationships

### Caleb Watanabe

Gabby met Caleb when she first started to explore the woods. They bonded over being spectrals and a mutual love for cooking, and ended up working together at the School Store. They supports each other and always look out for the other.

Gabby completely trusts and sometimes even relies on Caleb's judgements because she doesn't consider herself a smart individual, while he usually provide logical reasoning to his statements that are worth noting. That is until recent events proves that Caleb doesn't always make the right choices, and sometimes said choices even endangers himself. Gabby worries about his well-being and hopes to talk it out with the boy soon.

### Ruby Parker

Being the most experienced member of the club and the son of the advisor himself, Gabby admires Ruby as he is "the strongest spectral kid she knows" and she dubs him "Friend Leader Rubestar". She trusts him fully and considers him one of her best friends. She feels lost and confused when he left the club at the end of last year without telling her or Caleb the reasons why, but is glad that he's back on the team!
