General Personality: Very loyal and loving to his family, Damon is an expert at dividing his time well between responsibilities and spending time with his loved ones. Rather mature and responsible for his age, he is able to make wise judgments and does not hesitate to ask others (especially Rhiannon) for their opinion before drawing a conclusion or a decision. He is beloved by his step siblings and children in general, as he is always willing to put down work and play with them as if he was a child as well. He treats everyone with respect, even if he does not like them. He isn't easily provoked to anger, but if someone threatens his family or friends he can be extremely protective and hostile though he doesn't mind being insulted.
He doesn't approve of the war going on right now, but he knows that it is his duty as the head of House Bennett to be loyal to the Damians.
Equipment
As Damon is skilled with weapons, he knows how to wield a long bow and a sword. He does prefer his sword, however. He does not wear heavy armor unless it is crucial to, rather wearing light and comfortable clothing than fancy ones, which his wife often nags him about.
History
The eldest son of the late Lord Bennett, Damon is the son of his father’s first wife. His mother died while giving birth to his younger sister Lyssa, and his father remarried four years after to a very young woman not much older than him. It wasn’t very long before they were attracted to each other, and though Damon often felt guilty about betraying his father and having feelings for his young step-mother, neither of them could bear to part with the other.
His father made him marry a few years ago, to a woman who happens to be a nag and nothing but a narrow-minded wench. He loved Rhiannon first, and has never stopped loving her. His wife has no children with him, but Damon himself is not childless. In truth, both of Rhiannon’s sons, his ‘step-siblings,’ are in actuality his own children, not his father’s. Not many people know of this fact except a select few. He always stayed by them as an older brother but knows well that they are his sons.
His father died not long ago due to a hunting accident, and Damon became the new head of House Bennett.
