You can't stay cloaked. Now me and my spectres will finish the job. We'll kill Mengsk...and burn his Dominion to the ground.

Gabriel Tosh is a mysterious terran, described as "pseudo-Rastafarian".[2] An agent of Raynor's Raiders, he has much knowledge of the Ghost Program.[3]

He is armed with a sniper rifle[4] and a balisong.[5]

Tosh considers himself a "fine teep" and suggested his grandmother thought it was "voodoo".[6]

He said that few people knew how Sarah Kerrigan became the Queen of Blades and that she had to be killed before she wiped everyone out.[3] He has a similar desire for Arcturus Mengsk, specifically to kill him and "burn his Dominion to the ground" with help from spectres.[5]

An arms dealer,[4] Tosh represents an amoral influence on Jim Raynor. His missions influence Raynor to cut corners and act like a pirate.[7] He is a counterpart to Matt Horner. A nihilist with army experience, he has some good in him, but knows he must be #1 to survive.[1]

[edit] Biography

Gabriel Tosh, leader of Team Blue

Sometime after the Brood War,[6] Gabriel Tosh served as the leader of Team Blue, a group of ghost trainees. He was slightly older than the other members of the team.[8] Tosh disapproved of new teammate Nova, who wasn't a team player.[6]

He participated in a training operation, where they had to rescue a Dominion senator from United Earth Directorate pirates. He was frustrated by Nova, who ran off to conduct the mission on her own, and later by fellow team members Kath Toom and Lio Travski, who ran into difficulties. Intending to complete the mission by himself, he was shot at by the pirates.[6]

He would later become associated with Raynor's Raiders.[3]

[edit] Other Appearances

Gabriel Tosh is set to appear in the graphic novel series, StarCraft: Ghost Academy[9][10][2] as one of the main characters. He will already be the leader of Team Blue, and is slightly older than his teammates.[8]

He will also appear in StarCraft: Ghost: Spectres.[11][12]
