- Damon to Yamanashi

With a strong iron-like sense of justice, Damon will put everything on the line to do what is right. A trait that cost him his family and a part of his soul. Hardened by his youth growing up with a strict WWII veteran father, James Jones, Damon learned a lot from his father, how to be a man, lessons about life, and how to take care of himself. The desire for justice was installed in him by the murder of their mother, after this Damon vowed not to let people like that roam the streets, eventually becoming a detective for the Los Angeles police department. Damon always had a dry sense of humor and was a very cold person on the outside, this was only further enhanced by the death of his family and the blood on his hands after years of detective work. However beneath he still had some of the past Damon in him, showing his hospitality towards McCormack and making humorous remarks while infiltrating Vincenzo’s estate.
