| ~~~Shinigami~~~ Name: Dameon Alias: N/A Age: 365 Visual Age: 23 Gender: Male Reiatsu Color: White Affiliation: Gotei 13 Division: 7th Rank: Captain --------------------Persona-------------------- Appearance: - Spoiler:
Dameon is a relatively tall but well-built man standing roughly six feet and three inches tall and around two hundred pounds of toned muscle built onto his frame. His hair is wavy and black at a length that often needs to be pushed away from his eyes when he wishes to see. His eyes are also a deep dark gray boarder lining on black which gives him a very unusual and dispassionate appearance when looked at. The biggest way to get a sense of Dameon’s emotions is by focusing on his mouth to see its shape in response to emotional triggers. When in Soul Society Dameon wears the traditional captain’s attire though not without his own flair. He wears the top to his Shihakushōa little more loosely as it reveals a more V-neck shape revealing a part of his bare chest. On top of that his white captain’s haori is sleeveless and cut at the arms roughly. The appearance if his haori looking a little more roughly cut at the sleeves is from his duel for the captain’s seat where he won his duel but not before dismembering the prior captains arms hence cutting off the sleeves. When in his Gigai form Dameon dresses a little more uniquely. He prefers black attire and wears clothes that are tighter to his body. He wears a black t-shirt and tight black jeans with a black leather overcoat he leaves unbuttoned. He also wears a pair of black gloves that extend halfway up his forearms and black boots that allow him to grip the earth better. He also prefers in his gigai to have his zanpakuto be held at his waist by a couple of chains that are attached to his thick metal studded belt. Personality: General: Dameon’s personality is very cold and dispassionate but focused. Often preferring to spend his free time to himself he will play chess to give himself a mental challenge and stimulation. Though highly intelligent he prefers to keep his thoughts to himself unless it involves strategy on a larger scale rather than a duel. He hates the feeling of being alone but because of his past he chooses to be alone so that icwhen he sets his mind to something spending countless hours in training and preparation to achieve the goals he has set for himself. Likes: Though he forces himself to keep to himself and not build any strong attachments to anyone, he prefers challenges and healthy competition with those around him. Other than that Dameon also enjoys eating a nice warm cooked meal and playing chess or reading to further develop his quest for more knowledge. Though he is not obsessed with learning everything there is, he is obsessed with fighting tactics and strategies and as such is a great teacher when it comes to such. Dislikes: Dameon has a very open mind and is always willing to adapt or try new things but there are a few things in which even he cannot stand. Arrogance is one such thing that drives him crazy when he sees’s someone with that trait. As such he accepts nobody in his division that displays such qualities. Another thing Dameon absolutely cannot stand is disrespect. Dameon is very commanding of respect from those in his division and he feels he has earned the right to be respected amongst his peers. Those that are disrespectful to him usually are either kicked out of the division or are executed. Motivations: Though strict and demanding Dameon’s motivation is to protect Soul Society and those in his division. Unlike most captains Dameon has a courageous and protecting soul, while often choosing to avoid confrontation he will make the exception to protect someone under his command. Prior to becoming a captain Dameon’s motivation was to avenge his lovers’ death at the hands of the former 7th division captain in an accidental confrontation where his lover was a case of mistaken identity. Using this motivation he successfully beat the 7th division captain in a duel and executed him in a similar fashion. Currently other than protecting those he commands he is motivated to get ready for the new threat that has begun to reveal itself. Fears: Though knowing and understanding it is unavoidable Dameon fears the loss of loved ones and those he swore to protect. Whether it be a civilian in Soul Society or on earth, or someone he commands he fears it happening. Though because Dameon fears such things he actively gives everything to stop something like that from occurring. To go along with this fear Dameon is loosely afraid of becoming involved in another relationship, especially after what had happened in his last one. --------------------History-------------------- History:The Beginning - Spoiler:
Upon his passing Dameon had awoken to a whole new world and had honestly expected something different. Unsure of what had happened or why he had arrived at such a place he began to explore. His arrival into the afterlife had caused him to arrive within a dense harsh forest with no certainty of a way out. Several hours of travelling slowly through the rough terrain he came across a tree much larger than the others and with branches perfect for climbing. It didn’t take him long to reach the top of the great tree to explore his surroundings. In the distance miles away he could see what appeared to be civilization and he knew he was on the correct path. Still unsure of where he was or how he had gotten there he kept trying to remember forcefully hoping that something, anything would trigger his memory. To no avail he pressed on hoping maybe that someone else knew somewhere. After another few hours he arrived in the town surrounded what appeared to be a fortress. It was busy but nobody seemed to notice him or recognize his existence, nobody but one person.
As his eyes caught hers she looked away with worry in her eyes as she retreated into the large building she had been standing in front of. Curious and in the need for answers he followed her running as fast he could to the building and slowly entering. The building appeared to be a library of sorts, containing records, books, and even shogi and chess boards for people to play to help pass the time. He could see her in the back alone still looking worried. Unsure of protocol he approached her anyways taking the chance to see if she knew anything of his predicament. It was then that he had been told everything and how they were in Soul Society now. She had revealed to him that her name was Allison. She was a beautiful woman early twenties with bright red hair and the perfect body. Dameon for some reason was not surprised or sad when she had informed him of everything. He simply accepted it and though the news came heavy at first he settled into the idea of a second life. Dameon without a place to stay offered to help with the library that she owned in exchange for a place to sleep. She gladly accepted. This would go on for several years as he learned and became extremely talented at Chess and Shogi often beating anyone who challenged him without having to think too carefully.
Unacceptable Loss - Spoiler:
Years passed as Dameon stayed with Allison. Over the years they had developed a strong and romantic relationship living with one another and becoming lovers. They ran the library together for years they were happy and lived carefree lives. To Dameon it was truly heaven he didn’t want to be with anyone else and neither did she. Planning on creating and being together for eternity they got a new house together and expanded on the library adding new rooms and books and expanding it into a full blown recreational center to keep the town busy with things to do in their spare times. Continuing his chess crusade Dameon was running local tournaments for fun and watching as opposed to playing feeling it was fairer to everyone if he didn’t participate. The recreation center had done so much for the town it had lowered what little crime there was and gave children something to do and other people in the small town things to do rather than stay at home. It had become a place where the whole community could get together and have fun and be one big family. People had begun to treat Allison and Dameon as if they were part of their family inviting them to birthdays and all sorts of events.
One day a group of Shinigami’s had come by the village pursuing a criminal that was rumored to have passed through the town. Dameon having had a close grip and an eye on the village had talked to the shinigami reassuring them that the village had no criminals that were seeking refuge or any that had passed through. To the captains disbelief he pushed Dameon aside under orders to take anyone in the village with red hair for further questioning. Complying Allison left with the shinigami to the fortress to be questioned along with the rest of the red headed females throughout the town and other villages in Soul Society. Dameon worried for his love had set out as well to follow them back to the fortress. He was locked and kicked out from entering into the vast place. Feeling useless he waited by gates for any news and when an execution was announced he had begun to panic. The execution was going to be held just outside the fortress as an example to the villagers to keep in line and obey.
A few days had passed and the execution day was upon him. Allison was among the prisoners they had planned to execute. She was crying and begging to be released. Dameon in a fit of rage rushed the stage to try and do anything but was quickly grabbed and was forced to watch as his lover was beheaded by the captain in charge of hunting the criminals down. Refusing to believe she was the criminal he closed the recreational center down to do as much research as he possibly could. A complete wreck and always at the peak of anger and irrationality. It was only a week later that the real criminal had been confirmed and had been hiding out in the forest the whole time. When Dameon went to confront the captain instead of apologizing or feeling sympathy for his loss at his hands with the mistaken identity, the captain said it was “An acceptable loss.” After going into a fit of rage Dameon was carried away forcefully and returned to his town where he was monitored to make sure he didn’t do anything reckless or make an attempt at anyone’s life within the fortress of soul society.
The Academy/Graduation - Spoiler:
Placed under house arrest for months let Dameon think and plan. Something he had always been extremely good at. Alone with his chess board and enough books on the Seireitei, Gotei 13, and the Shinigami academy to become an expert on it all, and that is exactly what he had in mind to do. He swore to himself he would get revenge and he knew the best way to obtain it. After the house arrest was lifted he gave the recreational center to another family in the village and set out to join the academy and graduate. His idea was to become strong enough as a shinigami that he would kill the captain he swore revenge too legally in a duel and take command of his division. It was a long shot of plan but he would do anything and everything to accomplish his mission. Dameon showed up at the academy and flew through the entrance exam and had been placed into ed hclass one with all the other exceptionally skilled students that looked to set an example and become some of the best shinigami. The biggest difference was the power of Dameon’s motivation as he destroyed his class mates in competitive events and class scores.
After eight months in the academy Dameon was looking to finish top in his class on all accounts. There was talk about him even graduating in another four months as opposed to the six years it traditionally took. Dameon however was just focused on one thing, his promise. Everything he read he learned and memorized his extremely high IQ and comprehension breezing him through all technical aspects. On the other hand his fierce determination propelled him just as far ahead in all the physical aspects, learning quickly the combat arts and how to properly communicate with his Zanpakutō who had much the same goal as Dameon. Their relationship seemed flawless as they both shared similarities in their motivations and desires. If he had been given another Zanpakutō he would have probably taken much longer to progress as far. Things just seemed to click into place for him and his plan. The nights where other students went out to relax and have fun Dameon would spend it to himself and his Zanpakutō playing chess or meditating while foreseeing their plan and any potential alternative outcomes and planning around them.
As graduation approached it was highly speculated Dameon would graduate after only one year as per his plan. Dameon didn’t care about how soon he graduated though because either way his plan would be successful whether it was this year or the next. However he knew he was already graduating, it was obvious the way some of the higher ranking shinigami had shown up as if to bid on him for their division. Pushing them out of his mind and going with the flow he completed graduation day and turned to the captain he had sworn revenge to. After the ceremony he had been declared a shinigami and thus was legally allowed to challenge any captain for his/her title and with the rest of the high ranking officials present it would be legal if he won as well. He decided however it was best to wait and learn the captains weaknesses and give him time to get stronger, after all he had all the time in the world. Allsion would be avenged in time.
The Blue Moon War - Spoiler:
Dameon had been assigned the fifth seat in division three out of graduation. He was happy to have a seated position but felt it was beneath him and quickly looked to progress himself. Constant years of grueling training and learning about the opponents he would have to fight to obtain his goal lead him to becoming stronger and stronger. Just before the Blue Moon War had started Dameon had challenged and successfully moved himself up to the third seat in a land slide victory over the previous seat holder. It wasn’t long after that the war had broken out that Dameon was fighting the Arrancar, encountering them for the first time but not going in unprepared. Using the Soul Societies extensive libraries he had effectively researched the enemy before he ever had set foot close to them. Dameon knew that to know the enemy was to know how to beat them. It was because of this that Dameon had become recognized for his battlefield tactics and strategies and had been assigned to come up with ways to defeat the arrancar along with a few others. It wasn’t long after that they had begun to make a dent and turn the war around leading to what hopefully would become victory.
It was also during these final months that his captain of the third division had been killed. He was replaced quickly and Dameon had filled in the vice-captain seat that had also been left vacant. In the back of his mind wasn’t the war however it was Allison and finding a way to beat the person that had taken her from him. He had monitored the man carefully for a little over a century and felt strongly that he could in fact fight and win. So using the calm just before the end of the war Dameon challenged the man and the captain accepted. A few other captains were witness to the fight but had a strong distaste for the seventh division captain.
Revenge - Spoiler:
Had Dameon gave a shit he probably would have felt worried about fighting a captain so soon. He had no will to live except to get revenge on the man for the slaying of his lover. Dameon remained as dispassionate as he possibly could knowing only a level head and clear thinking would help him achieve his strategy that he had planned. The captain seemed to wait for Dameon to make the first move but Dameon wouldn’t have it as he stood there in his stance his right hand over this hilt of his Zanpakutō. By now the captain must have realized Dameon would not make the first attack and in his overconfidence feeling like he could finish things quickly charged Dameon. This however is exactly what Dameon had wanted; his whole plan was based off of it. A few moments later the captain’s arms laid on the ground as he wailed in agony. A gasp could be heard from just about everyone from the crowd and even the other captains. Dameon looked up at the sky feeling the sweet release of stress and feeling like Allison was watching him. In one more motion he swung his blade down decapitating the man.
Dameon slid the blade of his Zanpakutō across his hakama cleaning the blood off of his valuable blade before returning it to his sheathe. Everyone watching was still amazed and still trying to wrap their heads around what had happened. Using their pause of silence and disbelief he removed the ex-captains haori and wrapped it around himself not caring about the blood stains on it. Not speaking another word he left everyone else and walked off to find somewhere peaceful to sit feeling like everything he had wanted he had accomplished in a matter of a year. He wondered if Allison would be proud of him or horrified. It was that question that would haunt him for the longest time. As he sat there having accomplished his promise to get revenge he wondered what he would do now. He had an obligation now that he had become a captain in one of the three possible ways. Perhaps with him as a captain he would be able to change things around for the better or at least he would have some say about it. A few hours later he was located by the other captains and was officially made a captain even though some seemed reluctant to accept the fact he had won his fight fair and square.
He was shown to his quarters that had been cleaned out of the old captain’s personal belongings. Dameon had also been informed of how the vice-captain in a fit of rage had resigned from the division and currently Dameon had no vice-captain or lieutenants. This didn’t worry him at all though as it gave him time to prepare and get settled into his new role. One of the captains had stayed longer than others to explain to him in detail how everything would work out and within a few days everything legally had been squared away. They had also told Dameon in the offical reports the witnesses to the duel had stated it was an Arrancar attack and that Dameon had been placed in charge.
Current - Spoiler:
Currently Dameon has been the Captain of the seventh division for almost two months now. Dameon still has no news on whether or not he will receive a Lieutenant or a Vice-Captain anytime soon. Still though Dameon has taken control over his position and had been using it to do the best he can to make sure the Gotei 13 don’t end up like the ex-captain he had killed to take his place. To his surprise a lot of the other captains were not to distressed or upset about the man being killed as the opinion of him being a loose cannon. They still are however in disbelief that Dameon had become a captain so soon and that it only took a century for him to make captain. People around Seireitei had taken to calling him a prodigy and a genius, and while that may have been true Dameon just saw it as fulfilling his promise he had made to Allison. Dameon still feels the trauma of her death often being unable to sleep and being awoken to nightmares of her execution and her questioning why he hadn’t tried harder to stop them. Her death weighs heavily on his mind but he keeps all of this to himself feeling that as a captain telling people such things would be a sign of weakness.
