→Gabriel
Later Gabriel comes to the aid of the Winchesters and a group of [[gods]], trying to prevent a confrontation between them and Lucifer. When Lucifer arrives, Gabriel gives the few survivors an opportunity to escape while he faces his brother. Gabriel proclaims that God was right in declaring that humans are better than angels, and that Gabriel has chosen their side in the conflict. He tries to attack Lucifer from behind through trickery, but Lucifer stabs him with his own [[archangel blade]].<ref name="five19">[[5.19 Hammer of the Gods]]</ref> Though Gabriel reappeared as part of [[Metatron]]'s plot to trick Castiel<ref name="nine18">[[9.18 Meta Fiction]]</ref>, [[God]] confirms that he is dead and is unable to bring Gabriel back to aid in the final battle with [[Amara]].<ref name="eleven22">[[11.22 We Happy Few]]</ref>
Eight years after his apparent death, Gabriel is revealed to be somehow alive and a prisoner of the [[Prince of Hell]] [[Asmodeus]] in the [[Needham Asylum]].<ref name="thirteen13">[[13.13 Devil's Bargain]]</ref> [[Ketch]] discovers that Asmodeus has been injecting himself with Gabriel's [[Grace Extractor|extracted]] [[grace]]to fuel his own powers. Following a brutal beating by Asmodeus, Ketch rescues Gabriel, steals his extracted grace as well as the [[archangel blade]] and brings all three to the Winchesters who use Gabriel's grace to open a [[portal]] to [[Apocalypse World|another universe]].<ref name="thirteen17">[[13.17 The Thing]]</ref> As Sam and Castiel attempt to treat a traumatized Gabriel, they are able to learn that he faked his death at Lucifer's hands to abscond from his responsibility once more. During an attack on [[the Bunker]] by Asmodeus, Gabriel fights back and incinerates the last Prince of Hell. He refuses to have anything to do with the coming battle against [[Michael (Apocalypse World)|an alternate universe Michael]] and departs once more.<ref name="thirteen18" />
At one time, Gabriel may have owned an angelic weapon called [[Gabriel's Horn of Truth]].
