Damon had quite a bad childhood. He was born into a world of humans. They allowed him to stay but upon him turning 13 he was stronger than every male in the town. He was always
getting blamed when there was something stolen, or when a person came up missing, he was also accused of deflowering a lot of the young women of the town....though that was the only true rumor of them. When was about 14 the villagers came after him with pitchforks and swords, sending him out. Damon, not wanting to hurt them left the town, alone. Damon went from town to town, seeking refuge for a half demon. None would take him in, so he turned to the woods for a life. He lived there alone for about 10 years before one day, while he was hunting he came upon a small cottage. He was eager to meet the person that stayed there, just to have someone to talk to. He smelled scents of both human and demon around, when he knocked on the door a small man answered the door. The man had a
reddish tint to his skin, and small horns. Other than this he appeared perfectly human. The man was elderly and drew his sword at Damon and asked his business. Damon replied "I just seek refuge friend, I mean you no harm" The man nodded and let Damon in. The cottage was old and poorly decorated. The man extended his hand, "I go by David." Damon shakes his hand, "I'm Damon." The two became friends and both lived in the cottage for a few months,
sharing stories, and becoming good friends. For he'd never met another half demon before. One morning Damon awoke to sounds of hounds
closeting in from the outside. Damon darted to the window and saw 30 men outside with bows, swords, and hounds, laying siege to the outside of the house. David awoke and knew what was happening "Well
they've finally found me...I'm old and don't have the strength to run anymore. Damon, take my sword, and go. I
don't need it anymore, your still young and have a future." He pints to the roof "Trapdoor, run for it." He tosses Damon the sword as David runs out the door. Damon leaps on the bed then through the trap door. He starts to leap for a tree but hears a scream of pain from David.
Damon's eyes glowed a fiery red, as his hair also changed to a red, his claws and fangs grew 2x the length as he leaped off the roof of the cottage, landing down on 2 humans and squashing them. He turns and throws his forearm
in front of his face as he blocks a dozen arrows. He then lets lose a flurry of slashes, killing half. Then draws the sword, slaying the remainder of the fleeing humans. He returns to
David's dead body as he slowly takes back his original form. Me looks at his bloody hands and sword with extreme fear. "I....Slaughtered
them all." Damon buries his face in his hands and weapons. "Why...how." "I...even killed those begging for their lives,
I was an.....ANIMAL!" Damon crawls over to David's dead body and grasps his hand. "David..." David leans up, his face now a
purplish color, with a stab wound in his stomach and 2 arrows in his chest. David, "We had...*cough*
some . . . good times eh?" "But promise me something Damon" Damon replies "Anything" David, "You have to live on, you killed them out of *cough* friendship." A little blood comes out of his mouth. "Now leave now please...don't look back. David falls limp. Damon's eyes tear up as he weapons over
David's dead body. Damon buries each person, digging the graves with his bare hands, and marking each grave with a flower. After burying them Damon turned and ran. He ran to the stream and started punching the water and washing himself. "AArRRGGgg, my hands reek of their blood, LEAVE your wretched stench" Damon lived in the woods, town hopping, bearing a cloak he found to sneak into towns and get supplies. Until one day in the woods, he was observing a cat woman,
making herself at home in his area of the woods. He observed her from a distance until she
eventually confronted him.
