He only appears as a playable character on the last mission, when the Blood Ravens have successfully injected the poison extracted from the Tyranid Gene Sample, and are clearing the remaining Tyranid forces on Typhon Primaris. He appears throughout the single-player campaign in briefings, particularly right after the Tyranid invasion on Calderis, aboard the battle barge Litany of Fury (the same one present in Dark Crusade). Granted the potent Daemonhammer "God-Splitter" by Inquisitor Mordecai Toth, Angelos shatters the Maledictum and kills the intended recipient of its power, the sorcerer-turned-Daemon Prince Sindri Myr.Ĭaptain Angelos makes his return in Dawn of War II. His trust was shattered when Isador defects to Chaos and steals the key to unlocking the Maledictum, a Chaos artifact containing a bound Daemon of Khorne, and Angelos is forced to personally execute him. He has also grown up with Librarian Isador Akios, whom he trusts immensely. Gabriel himself, like most Imperials, distrusts aliens immensely it is for this reason he shows incredible disdain for the Eldar in his encounters with their leader, Farseer Macha (though in the novels, his disdain for them gradually lessens). Only his battle-brothers of the Blood Ravens truly understand his feelings on the matter. He carries a guilty conscience for destroying his homeworld of Cyrene (one of the recruiting worlds of the Blood Ravens) and agonizes over this continuously, though he does not often speak of it. In the first Dawn of War game, Brother-Captain Gabriel Angelos is the commander of the Blood Ravens' 3rd Company.
