I wasn't sure if you had someone in mind already for Alexis' son since I didn't see a name anywhere (and I could have missed it). I'd need to know who he was if you do have someone in mind LOL
HISTORY
**GH history mixed with the pieces mentioned for the board**
Alexis was brought to town by her half-brother (then thought to be her cousin) Stefan Cassadine to help him in his quest to take over Port Charles and General Hospital. She came in and quickly represented such GH doctors as Dr. Kevin Collins and Dr. Monica Quartermaine. After winning cases for them, she quickly built a repuation as a shark in the courtroom and attracted the attention of ELQ head Ned Ashton. She and Ned embarked on a romance, one that eventually saw them at the altar, but never ended up in marriage as commitment-phobic Alexis ran from the church when she decided she couldn't go through with the wedding.
For a while, she hid the fact that she discovered that she was not Stefan's cousin but his half-sister Natasha. She tried to spurn his romantic interest in Katherine Bell, a woman she had a strong distrust and dislike of and wanted out of his life. Stefan eventually learned of her duplicity and banished her from his home and his life. This was a temporary result as he eventually welcomed her back into both his home and into his life.
Over time, she had shared a marriage of convenience with her now best friend Jasper Jacks, temporarily become counsel for local mobster Sonny Corinthos, a business relationship that ended with a one night stand, one that resulted in Alexis' daughter Kristina. She kept the news of Kristina from Sonny for as long as she could, claiming the father to be her on and off boyfriend Ned Ashton. He learned that Kristina was his when she became seriously ill and needed a bone marrow transplant. After an ugly custody hearing, she and Sonny had begun to share parenting duties of Kristina and they share an amicable relationship as a result. Since then, she had married Sonny's half-brother Ric (resulting in the birth of her daughter Molly) and more recently married and divorced her best friend's brother Jerry, divorcing him when she could no longer handle his criminal lifestyle. She is currently the district attorney of Port Charles and does a kickass job at this position.
Alexis learned a few years ago that Sam McCall is the daughter that she had given up for adoption, forced to by her father Mikkos Cassadine. More recently, she learned that Sam is not her daughter after all...she had been conned into believing that Sam is her daughter. This has broken her heart but on the other hand, she was happy to learn that she does have a son in Port Charles. She has yet to share this information with him, afraid of his not liking her and rejecting her. She is currently trying to build up the courage to share this information with him and looking for the love that is missing from her life...all while doing everything she can to try to help drive crime and the mob out of Port Charles for good.

ROLE PLAY SAMPLE
When I found out the news, it rocked me to my core. I had bonded with the woman but I had come to learn that Samantha McCall had conned me. She had done a damned good job of it, too. I felt like a complete fool. I was the damned district attorney and should have been sharper to such cons but here I was, taken in by her. I bonded with her, became close to her and loved her. I thought it was mutual but I learned that it was all an act and it hurt like hell. I didn't know quite how to deal with it.
On the flipside, I learened that the child I'd given up was a son and I now knew his name. I looked at the piece of paper that contained his name, address and phone number. I knew who he was and I knew in my heart that he would be a good son to me. I knew that we could have a relationship, one that I had thought I'd built with the woman who had convinced me that she was my daughter. I wanted to share the news with him and I wanted to get to know him better. I wanted him to know me. But I had no idea how he'd feel about the news. For all I knew, he could hate me, decide that he doesn't want me in his life. Reject me. I didn't think that I could handle another blow to my heart and absorb the rejection.
I got up from the couch and went over to the windows. I brushed away a tear that slipped down my cheek as I thought about all that had recently transpired. I knew I needed someone to talk to but who? Diane was away on a romantic weekend with Max and Jax was more often than not busy with his life and its complications. I didn't have anyone "special" in my life upon which to lean on and while I felt lonely at times, it felt incredibly heavy right now. It didn't help that I had yet to share the news with Kristina and Molly. I knew that they would be crushed over the news about Sam since they'd become so close over the past few years. Sure they'd likely be quicker to forgive her and be her friend than I felt like I could be right now but I knew it would hurt them to start with. I just had to find the right time to tell them. I stared out the window with all of these thoughts swimming around my head, starting to give me a headache to be totall honest. I had to get out ofhere and I had to do it now. I sighed as I brushed away a tear that slipped down my cheek. I went to the closet, grabbed my coat, got my purse and keys from the table and headed out to my car. I needed a drink. Hell, I needed several and I needed them now. I headed over to Jake's to get some drinks and try to numb the pain and confusion that was clouding my head right now. I would try to make more sense of this and make the decisions on when to talk to the girls and when to approach my newfound son in the morning.

well hey there, i'm Tami and i've been a crazy role player for at least five years and found this site by a link on another board. my favorite gh characters are Alexis Davis and a tie between Jasper Jacks and Nikolas Cassadine and i really hate Sam McCall and Damian Spinelli. my favorite couple is (I don't have one right now) and i really hate Jason and Sam. i really miss Alexis Davis (she gets close to zero airtime, so I get to miss her LOL) and Stefan Cassadine and i think the canon gh rocks. you can reach me by private messenger or email and my activity level is high. i'm normal and excited to make my canon character!
