Background
Gabriel Frost was an antiquities dealer living in Chicago with an avid interest in Ancient Egypt and Hermeticism.  He made quite a bit of money selling genuinely magical artifacts to anyone who could afford them, heedless (even unaware) of the consequences, for Gabriel himself did not believe in magic.

This changed when he came into possession of a grimoire known as The Book of the Black Sun, after the black sunburst symbol on its front cover.  Though he could only decipher sections, Frost found himself captivated by the chronicle of a so-called "Plane of Shadow." Frost contacted a professor at the University of Chicago, Dr. Robert Carlisle, to help him translate the book. Unbeknownst to Carlisle, he also contacted several prospective buyers.

Frost hosted a meeting of the interested parties at Eclipse, his gallery in Chicago. It was tense from the onset; Carlisle was upset that Frost wanted to sell the book. Frost's girlfriend Devon took an immediate dislike to one of the buyers and threw him out. Frost and Carlisle were soon arguing about the translation, and the collectors started arguing about the value of the book.

In the midst of the discord, one of the buyers (Maya Devereux, an evil cultist), tried to simply take the book. She began firing magical rays, killing two of the other buyers. She attacked Frost, but he grabbed the Book and used it to block the ray. This opened a portal to the Shadow Plane, through which he and the others were able to escape.

They remained on the Shadow Plane for several days, until Frost gleaned enough from studying the Book to return them to Earth, where only minutes had passed. Repeated exposure to magical energies had affected all the survivors, albeit in different ways. Gabriel gained the power to summon a shadow creature, which he used to defeat Devereux, though the gallery burned down during the battle, killing all the employees.

In light of the loss of property and lives, Frost hired a tech genius to build him a suit of powered armor, which he now uses (with his few magical skills) in his crusade to stop evil cultists of all stripes, calling himself Eclipse in memory of those killed.
