Damien is to say, at the very least, the older brother that everyone wished they had. (Or, feel as if they do, strictly to the guys.) Damien is a pretty mature guy who's reliable and there to catch you when you fall, through and through. While he enjoys goofing off and getting a good laugh with people, he is the first one who makes sure that none of his friends gets into bad business, and if does happen, then he is the first who will try to get them out of it and off of it. He looks out for his people, and wouldn't know what to do with his life if he couldn't do that. He cherishes his most trusted and most loved ones. However, it is known that he's friendly and on good terms with mostly everyone, be it stranger or not. After all, doesn't hurt to be friendly with everyone.
Damien's generally an all around good guy to be around, empathetic and compassionate, as long as you don't get on his bad side. Simplistic. He dislikes complicated situations and concepts, as they're just generally confusing and unnecessary to have, and as a result, rather prefers short-cuts and/or getting straight to the point and over with it. He dislikes conflict, and much rather enjoys when things are mellow and great in life, instead of the drama that people just naturally create. As the Quarterback, Damien needs to be able to have his entire team cooperate and be able to call out the plays. This is not a problem for Damien. As the middle-man, friendly guy he is, he's brutal when it comes to football, basketball, and video-gaming. As a quick thinker and a surprisingly strategic man when it comes to the three hobbies that he's passionate about, Damien always makes sure to be able to never let his team down.
As a jock and a pretty popular guy throughout the school, he generally gets a lot of attention, and one must have charisma to simply keep that up, and a charismatic guy Damien is. Smooth-talking and hardly ever an awkward moment when talking with him on , while he does usually look very serious most of the time, seconds after, he gets a huge smile on his face, as a simply optimistic person. He finds humor and happiness his best features, always making sure to cheer up anyone's day. Despite being impatient and perhaps childish in many a sense, he is slightly naive and may not catch onto things quickly, being a slight ignorant one to important things such as romantic feelings (he does not have a romantic bone in his entire body) or when the relationship just starts to become downhill. He does panic when he simply doesn't understand what to do or what is going on. (Though, it is probably because his personality is too much like that of a big brother, where he may include these sort of limited affections to his romantic interests.)
Appearance in Description::"I'm told that I'm pretty good looking. Is that true?"
To say that Damien is a bit handsome is a bit of an understatement. To be popular, apparently, one must be good-looking indeed. And indeed, Damien is well darn good-looking! Standing at 6'4", Damien is a tall, well-built guy to say at the very least, weighing in at around 157 lb. Fit and trim though sort of thick in muscle, Damien has a firm-muscled body that's lean and solid, and is beginning to develop a well-toned six pack. He has relatively sun-kissed skin from his time being outside so often, but still manages to have a light complexion. Damien still has a slight bit of fat over his stomach from when he was a child, but is maintaining that it doesn't get out of control. He has gray-ish green eyes, hunched under by dark brows, that go along with a slightly long, handsome face with a messy amount of short, spiky brown hair. He has an occasional scar or two from his childhood, but they generally go unnoticed unless analyzed carefully (under his left eye, several over his legs from scraping and on his neck from bullying incidents.) He's a pretty good-looking hunk of meat, wouldn't you say? Usually, he wears faded or torn jeans with some shirt or hood jacket, and a pair of kicks, wearing the average clothing that most guys in town seem to wear.
Likes::
- Sports (mostly football and basketball); his school's team
- Boxing every now and then (childhood hobby that he eventually gave up on, but still occasionally practices)
- Video games (All the typicals, Left4Dead, Call of Duty; all games that have horror elements or have guns in 'em)
- Working out/Jogging in the early morn'
- Watching classic movies
- Animals (he has, in fact, a small weakness for cute, small flurry creatures. But he wouldn't say that to his beloved Husky/Rottweiler mix, Garfield. ..Don't ask.)
- Hanging out with his friends and teammates
- Rock music and Old School Gaming Music
Dislikes::
- Fast-food restaurants, fried food, eating really unhealthy
- People picking on the overweight kids - he sympathizes.
- Math - it's too complicated (Lest to say, Literature isn't his strong subject either, unlike World History, but it's generally easier to understand.)
- Conflict, drama, unnecessary trouble
- Losing when he had a very good chance at winning
- Getting lost; sadly to say, the boy has absolutely no sense of direction.
- Prejudice and stereotypes (though he may have several of his own privately)
Fears::"Like it's said, the one you gotta fear, is fear itself."
Damien fears abandonment and peer humiliation, especially from those that he confides his utter most trust in. He also has this uncanny fear of clowns ("Freaky stuff, man. Freaky stuff."). But other than that, he's practically fearless. Of course, he isn't used to new things (perhaps you tried to have him pet a tarantula, don't often see them around here) that may seem weird and unusual to him at first but will eventually warm up to them (unlike Maths).
History::"I'd rather not talk about it."
Damien was born as the eldest son to William Greer and Dorene Agnes (nÊe O'Neil), his father was a lawyer and his mother is, well, a video game beta tester and reviewer/critic. He got his embarrassing middle name from his geeky mother who, at the time, was obsessed with the Elvin language. (Something that his mother has begun to use against him to motivate him to do as she asks or to just embarrass him.) Damien lived a pretty normal life, and was around 7 when his father walked out them shortly after his younger brother's birth. At that point, Damien began to develop his fear of abandonment, because he found it his fault that his father left his mother, his brother and him. His mother, being the strong-minded woman she is, picked herself back up to ensure that she raised her boys and that she raised them right. His younger brother, Seth, was rather sickly for a young boy, and was practically living in the hospital by the time Damien was 15.
Surprisingly, Damien was a rather chubby kid when he was younger, and as a victim of childhood obesity, he was picked on and bullied because of his weight and stature (which was quite short). He lost many friends who he thought were able to be trusted, and was eventually the target of much jeering and teasing. This further strengthened his fear of abandonment to the point that he went almost suicidal around 13. His mother was able to talk him out of it, hysterical that her son had been thinking to kill himself. Damien had, at that point, vowed to never do it again, seeing as his fear of abandonment was hypocritical if he was going to kill himself and abandon his mother and brother. Damien began to work out and was determined to lose weight so no one could tease him ever again. He managed to accomplish that during his freshman year. He's now the piece of meat you see today. (Haha.)
Other:: Double double toil and trouble
- Is failing Calculus, needs tutoring.
- Is a volunteer lifeguard every Sunday if there's no practice or otherwise.
- Has an occasional "geek moment" due to his mother's influence.
- Has Irish(mostly), Danish and Polish blood somewhere in him. Sadly, he can only speak very few words of Polish, courtesy of his mother.
- In all of a sense, Damien is not a momma's boy. Just close enough. ;D
