Damian "Ghost Eye" Klein is a private paranormal investigator and a supporting character in the *Welcome to Dreamworld* series.

## Appearance

Damian Klein is a young man with short brown hair. His most notable feature is his eyes -- while his left eye is gray, his right iris and pupil are both light lilac, with a deep purple sclera.

Damian Klein dresses in a salmon Hawaiian shirt patterned with small violet palm trees, over which he wars a long tan trench coat. He wears grey trousers and lilac sneakers.

## Personality

Damian is a cool, collected type who keeps a steady head throughout his investigation, not letting any of the perils of the facility worry him. He's very stern and guarded, though he shows lots of care for Oliver Acrimony.

## History

While Damian was young, he discovered that his eye allowed him to see Essence. Any attempts to explain this fact were dismissed, as even Damian's own sibling, Celio, did not believe him for quite some time. Still, he was able to find work as a paranormal investigator and detective at a young age. While still enrolled in school, he began his first case, and his work often led to him traveling out and away from his home in Ohio.

At some point while working on a case concerning the late Owen Nicholson, Damian was contacted by Celio, who was previously Owen's therapist. He was told that during Owen's therapy sessions, he shared drawings to describe his troubled home life, and that Celio may have Damian's next lead.

At some point, Damian was led to Dreamworld Entertainment by Alison to investigate the disappearances surrounding the facility. He attempted to get in contact with Sara to no avail and instead began interviewing the other available founder, Oliver Acrimony. Damian's sessions with Oliver brought the two rather close, and through them he was also able to learn about Sara and the animatronics' odd behaviors. Once the facility collapsed, Damian entered to further investigate, eventually leading to him finding and teaming up with Star Light, Ribbon Dancer, and the Triplets. Upon regrouping with the other animatronics and Wiatt in a confrontation with Litho, Damian stayed behind to watch over an unconscious Oliver while Wiatt pursued Litho further. Once Litho reconstructed the facility, he left the building with Oliver in tow and began caring for him at Celio's house. Wiatt would later regroup with the two, and with him, Damian would help formulate a plan to reawaken the lost memories of the animatronics.

After dropping off Wiatt to try to conduct the latest in a long line of interviews with police, Wiatt returned to Damien's car and the two discussed the lack of cooperation from law enforcement in response to the events relating to Dreamworld Entertainment. On the topic of Oliver's condition, Damien mentioned that he was resting at his house, as well as how he was concerned that the now-missing Celio may have gone to Dreamworld Entertainment after finding evidence revealing such. He explained to a distraught Wiatt that Celio wanted to speak with Sara to convince her to help set the souls in the animatronics free, but failed to mention to them that Sara was possessed by Litho. Wiatt then ordered Damien to drop him off at Dreamworld Entertainment so that he could look for clues to find them. Damien tried to talk Wiatt out of it, but was unsuccessful, and dropped him off at the facility.

When Wiatt found Celio down in the laboratory, Damien soon arrived with Oliver, stating that he came as soon as he got Wiatt's message. Celio asked if Oliver was alright and wondered why his head was inside of a television, while Wiatt angrily admonished Damien for bringing him to the facility. Celio also claimed that she would be able to help Damien remove the television from Oliver's head with information she found while trapped in the facility. While the four discussed an escape plan, Damien reveals that he broke into the facility by smashing a window, which causes Celio to get angry and pull him aside to scold him.

The four made it out to Damien's car, but Wiatt, wanting to talk to the animatronics, decides to go back inside. Damien, wanting to be able to get Oliver to Celio's apartment for help, reluctantly let Wiatt go, warning him that he had five minutes before he drove off. Over five minutes passed as Wiatt discussed the brainwashing with the animatronics and consolidated with Star Light, and Damien honked his car horn to get him to leave.

Damian is driving Wiatt Nicholson around after he files a report at the police station, Wiatt bringing up the disappearance of his sibling Celio. Damian comes to the conclusion they may have gone to the Dreamworld Entertainment Facility after their discussing about it. Wiatt asks to be dropped back off there, but Damian warns him of the dangers he faced the last time he was locked in at night. Through much convincing Damian complied, dropping him off and waiting outside.

Later into the night Damian is called, Wiatt telling him to come to the labs at the lowest floor of the facility. Damian eventually reaches Wiatt, along with his sibling Celio. He reveals he's brought Oliver Acrimony along to accompany him as it's the first time he's been awake in weeks. After explaining he got inside by breaking a window Celio pulls him aside to scold him about safety precautions.

The group makes it back outside, Wiatt wanting to go back inside yet again. Damian gives him five minutes to come back out or he's driving away. After a few minutes pass Damian begins honking the horn of his car over and over again, causing Wiatt to yell and swear at him from the entrance of the buildings.

Months later, Damien continues to help Wiatt in his investigation and also tend to Oliver who's health has declined greatly. When Wiatt prepares to remove the TV on Oliver's head using Oddity he stays by his side late into the night.
