Damien has been also somewhat of a loner, not to say he would never run with a group or be a part of one. He was taught by his dad to be self sufficient and able to take care of himself which was needed in times like these and his mother pasted on all her medical knowledge aswell that she had learned from her mother who was a nurse. Damien has traveled around and ran into many people aswell as lost most along the way including his mother and father who were killed when their settlement was raided. Damien wasn't around when it happened because he was out foraging for supplies and he returned to the settlement to find it in ruin bodies strew everywhere. You could say that was a turning point for Damien, when his sanity finally broke. He still tries to keep to everything his parents taught him and use it to help not only himself but those in need. Before now he found a guy who helped him survive by helping him with supplies after he was robbed, after Damien never seen him again. Now he is again in the same situation but somewhere new, how many friends are here and how many foe.
