HISTORY ♥

Life for little Gabriel Thompson had been peaceful, between living in the family manor in Puerto Rico and visiting his great-grandmother Lila in Port Charles, New York, Gabriel was a happy child and very bright for his age.

His great-grandmother Lila was engaged to his great-grandfather Elliot Thompson, but accidentally killed him in self-defense when he forced himself on her after getting jealous when Edward Quartermaine tried to romance Lila. It was only until after his death did she found out that she was pregnant with his child, Gabriel's grandfather, William. When the Thompson family was informed of the pregnancy and Elliot's death, although upset upon learning the news, they were thrilled to have gained a new addition to the family. Knowing that Lila was not dishonest or violent in nature and that Elliot was known to be impulsive at times, they believed the truth Lila told. Lila soon got together with Edward, who also knew of the baby's paternity and helped covered up the true nature of Elliot's death from the public, but they decided for the Thompson family to take care of baby William, though Lila would still visit him and have custody, they did it in hopes to help the family heal from their loss. William kept the last name of Thompson.

Gabriel's grandfather, William got along fine with Edward's son and his half brother Alan, but constantly bickered with half sister Tracy. William married Jasmine Casarena, a mob princess. While at that time the wealthy Thompson Empire involved themselves in the mob world as well as legitimate engineering/shipping business and moved to Puerto Rico. Soon the two give birth to their only child and son, Gabriel's father William Jr. aka Liam. Liam had great relations with his cousins AJ, Jason, and Ned. Then Liam married a business tycoon's daughter Miranda Vandenberg and soon give birth to Gabriel in 1995. Upon choosing the baby's Godparents, Liam named Jason as the godfather and Miranda's sister as the godmother. When his cousin Jason's accident left him with brain damage and no remembrance of the Quartermaine family or his past life and Jason renounced and left the family, Liam still maintained a good relationship with Jason, not judging him or expecting him to be the Jason he used to be. And when Jason changed his last name to Morgan and went to work for Sonny Corinthos, Liam who himself was also entrenched in the mob business made no argument and supported Jason's decision. The Thompson family was mostly left alone, and Gabriel grew up quickly. Visiting once or twice a month and on holidays to Port Charles, and he had developed a good bond with his godfather Jason Morgan, as well as many of the Quartermaine family members.

But Gabriel's happy life was brutally shattered in January of 2001 when he was 5, when a rival mobster bombed the family manor and killed every single member of the family as well as the members of the mob organization. Gabriel was injured and tied to a post while the murderer raped his pregnant mother and then killed her and cut his unborn baby sister from the womb and mutilated their bodies. Not only did Gabriel suffered life threatening injuries, he was also traumatized by the events. The Thompsons were completely wiped out, only Gabriel and his long-time bodyguard since his birth, Warren Harlan, survived the massacre.

Surprisingly, his parents' will indicate that should they and the family die, Gabriel was to be left in the care of Liam's cousin and Gabriel's godfather, Jason Morgan. Jason, who had left Port Charles a few months before, came to Puerto Rico when he learned the news and was shocked that Liam had left Gabriel in his care, but quickly found himself even more closely bonded to the little boy. Jason stayed with Gabriel and took care of him along with Warren, and when Gabriel called him "Daddy" after Jason comforted Gabriel during a nightmare, Jason decided to adopt Gabriel. Jason did have some doubts of keeping Gabriel safe with his line of work, but a conversation with the boy and a letter from his late cousin sealed the deal. Jason returned home to Port Charles with Gabriel as his son.

Due to the life changing events, young Gabriel had to grow up fast. Living in the mob world of Port Charles wasn't easy, not when you're Jason Morgan's son. But Gabriel understood what was happening around him, and he was more than willing to still stay by his adopted father's side. Sonny and Jason, although reluctant, were beginning to feel relaxed and comfortable talking about the business with Gabriel hanging around the room, though they were adamant that Gabriel will not be mixed up in this violent life.

Although Gabriel maintained great relations with the Quartermaine family, he couldn't help but feel the tensions and mistrust whenever he hang around the house or when the family talked about Jason and Sonny, but for the sake of his great-grandmother Lila, he chose to keep quiet about his feelings. He has deemed himself protector of all the kids that share his blood or taken in by the family. Growing up, he was often the one who got caught in the mob business, he had hoped that it would keep the younger kids away. Kidnappings, shootouts, you name it, he's faced it.

His best friend with Adelina Corinthos, but that shouldn't be a surprise. He's a Morgan, she's a Corinthos, they're family, that's always how it was meant to be. At age 16, he is currently in high school. People whisper behind his back and gossip about his mob upbringing, but that's never put Gabriel down, he's a kid who knows how to keep his head held high and temper in check very much like his adopted father. He may not be a famous jock quarterback like the other rich spoiled kids, but Gabriel has an amazing voice that, even though many girls refuse to admit, they adore very much. Also, most people assume that Gabriel is Jason's biological son instead of adoptive because they look uncannily alike and both share Lila Quartermaine's blue eyes.

ROLE PLAY SAMPLE ♥

Gabriel Morgan sat on the front steps of the school as he waited for the guards to show up to pick up him and Addy from school, in fact, he was waiting for Addy too, he didn't know what girls do that would take so long to get ready to leave. Honestly, he worries sometimes.

A couple of jocks walked by and one of them kicked Gabe on the shoulder to send him falling against the railing of the stairs. He turned around and glared while the jocks walked off laughing and giggling to themselves like 5 year olds. He mostly just ignored the bullies, fighting back, even though he would win, would do no good except get himself into trouble with the school teachers and principle. He was already being labeled as a danger to society, he really didn't need to give them any more leverage against him and his family.

Of course, that's never stopped Addy from fighting with others. The girl had a quick-fire temper, no doubt inherited from Uncle Sonny, and Gabe often had to hold her back, he had to play peace-maker.

The one incident that always stuck out in Gabe's mind was from last year. Gabe had been walking behind the path of the football bleachers when 4 guys cornered him and said they wanted to teach him a lesson. He could have fought back, he had no issues taking down 4 guys, he was trained for it, but that wouldn't be right, he could hurt those kids and Gabe wasn't one to hurt people. So before he could react, the 4 guys attacked and forced him onto the ground as they punched and kicked at him, not giving him any room or chance to fight back, calling him weak and stupid and a coward. Gabe just endured, he had thought this wouldn't end, he felt some of his ribs breaking, he could hear the guys' laughter and jeer, and he knew he must have a concussion. And then he heard Addy's voice, the attack stopped, and Gabe opened his eyes to see Addy's furious face and her tense stance, and before he knew it, she was screaming and attacking them like a mad-woman. The 4 guys were freaked as she raged at them, Gabe tried to get up to stop her but all he could do was desperately trying to pull oxygen into his lungs through his labored breathing. Very soon other kids had started to notice what was going on and the teachers came. They saw Addy's anger and Gabe's state of injuries and had no choice but to suspend the 4 boys in fear that the Corinthos-Morgan organization may retaliate. Gabe was taken to the hospital where he recovered two weeks later, of course, with Addy lecturing him all the way on the stupidities of not fighting back.

Aunt Robin would sometimes giggle call them the next generation of their fathers. Their Dads would mutter and glare, only causing Aunt Robin to laugh even louder.

Gabe just shook his head at the thought, he couldn't really disagree with Aunt Robin, they are very much like their fathers, more than any of them would like to admit. Maybe it's just fate.

Oh my, my heart just breaks for him. Maybe he and Georgie could get along, since I believe they're around the same age. Carly's a little disappointed - okay, more like furious - that you forgot to mention her, but I'll give her some pizza or something to calm her down.

Because it's AU, the Lila story is acceptable. It's hard for me to see Jesse as anyone but Jake haha, so this should be interesting. Great history, great sample.

Respond to the rules and you'll be good to go!
Just make sure Brit officially accepts you at some point, but since K told me that she okayed it, go ahead and start posting.

Have fun!

[Gabriel Morgan]

Is Georgie around 16? That could be interesting, maybe even a love triangle with Addy!

Don't let Carly kill me! I wasn't sure if Carly in this AU was suppose to be friends with Jason or Sonny! So I didn't add her. But I will now!

[Lizzie Zacchara]

She is, I think! Too lazy to look it up right now haha.
Ooh I was thinking more friendship, maybe, but idk.

Lol! I understand, since they're enemies.
But pretty sure Carly won't let a little thing like that
keep her from controlling - erm, helping - Jase's life. ; D

[Sonny Corinthos]

I love this character! I love the history and sample post. Gabe's a great addition. I can't wait to see what's in store for him. I approve of this message
