Gabriel Stokes

"It's why Gabriel Stokes is here... it’s the reason he's here with me. Carson... is Maggie's doctor... we have to get him out of here... we have to get him out of here... as long as I'm with Stokes as well."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Chariot's Revenge

Gabriel Stokes, also known as Father Gabriel, is a main character and a survivor of the outbreak in AMC's The Walking Dead. Prior to the outbreak, he was a priest at St. Sarah's Church. After the onset of the undead apocalypse, he barricaded himself inside for 17 to 18 months, haunted by the memories of leaving his former churchgoers to die, until he joined Rick Grimes' group. Since then, he has hardened more considerably from his meek self, and now serves as one of Rick's most brave and trusted allies. He was captured by the Saviors during the first assault on the Sanctuary and is currently forced to work in Eugene's new outpost.
