Can u tell me abt Gabriel ultrakill because he is daddy’s special little boy /ref [gianni did a voiceline for a Maxor video saying that]

HE IS DADDY'S SPECIAL LITTLE BOY I REMEMBER THAT VIDEO IT GOES SOOO FUKCIBG HARD

gabriel ultrakill is god's right hand man. in game we are introduced to the idea of him in the level CLIMAX // CLAIR DE LUNE, where we see a deceased husk / skeleton praying underneath a stained glass depiction of gabriel. on the wall right below the words "FORGIVE ME" are scrawled on, seemingly from desperation written with blood.

in that same level there is a lore book, a diary entry written from what we can assume is from the husk from earlier. in it, the husk refers to gabriel as "their friend," and writes about their woes of not being accepted into heaven despite their repentance. this starts introducing the idea to us that gabriel is an angel, and an active member in hell that speaks to the denizens, some with careful words.

i thiiiink the next time we hear about gabriel is in the level 2-2 // DEATH AT 20,000 VOLTS. in this we can find a lore book that details the recounting of a citizen of the lust layer, telling us about the slaughter of their king Minos by gabriel's hand. in this we see a vast contrast to the gentle gabriel we are introduced to before, in which he announces "Lord's will be done." and minos' is left screaming in pain before he dies. he is the righteous hand of the father, and he is here to carry out His will.

i cant remember if there's more mention of him before his first fight. but whatever. once we get to gluttony (the third layer), we actually fight gabriel in the final level. he has a pompous speech before you arrive to his arena, being all like "youre crossing the will of god. i will destroy you, machine." and then when you get there he's just some twink /J. while you fight, he throws out calm insults and flexes his power until the second half where he gets PISSED that he's actually getting hurt. when you defeat him, he calls you an insignificant FUCK, and retreats.

after his battle you get your first cutscene. in this cutscene it's revealed that this body called The Council is actually the one who orders gabriel around. this council is the replacement for God currently, because God just fucking disappeared. and in this, the council berates him for losing to a mere machine, and tells him if he doesnt kill the mahine within 24 hours, then he will be stripped of God's light and die. so now he has a renewed hatred for the V1 (did i mention you play as a robot? Its name is V1) and goes off to learn how to play the organ just so he can be a dramatic son of a bitch during his second fight /J

uhhh getting tired of writing this tldr what we learn in act two is gabriel also killed the king of greed, we learn about how ferrymen idolize him greatly and theyre like really intense with it (or at least the ferryman we see ij game is) because he saved them from drowning in the ocean styx, uhhh yeah. you fight him the second time he has a gay awakening (IM SO SERIOUS) he likes the taste of his own blood and getting beat the fuck up. and then questions everything snd kills the council because its corrupt and only pretending its enacting the Father's will.
