* DAMON Sebastian SALVATORE !
[/color][/font]This can be our defining moment, because we have the time.
That's the beauty of eternity. I just need the truth, just once.
Chapter by chapter, I'm falling faster and faster,
Becoming manic and magic it's so romantic I panic, oh.
Hit the eject button but it must be stuck, somethings up.
What did you slip into my drink? Baby.
It's disgusting, how I love you.
God, I hate me. I could kill you.[/center]

secrets: What Damon is really longing for is acceptance, which is something he never really saw during his years as a human. Having been on his own for the past 145 years, he has become very isolated and lonely, using a dark sense of humour to compensate for this.
personality: Damon is self-contained and reserved on the surface most of the time, only letting his emotions through when he's angry - usually at Stefan. He generally acts flippant and arrogant, and constantly plays word games, especially when it comes to dancing around an issue, and even more especially when that issue involves his true feelings on a serious subject. Damon has an aristocratic, elegant demeanor, and a very pragmatic outlook on life. He believes that the vampire nature is inherently dark, and that Stefan's attempts to not feed on humans are therefore unnatural. He has no problem with killing humans, although he generally won't go out of his way to do so.
He has a significantly violent history and it is strongly implied that he did many immoral things with no regrets, and would have little to no problem doing them again. He is said to possess sociopathic tendencies, being absolutely charming one minute and extremely dangerous the next, showing no remorse for the killings he has committed. He enjoys toying with people and causing grief to those around him, most of all Stefan and unlike his brother, he is very, very powerful and usually gets what he wants.
What a lot of people don't realize, however, is despite his rocky edges, Damon's got a semi-soft side. He's compassionate enough to know when he's pushing your limits, however whether he stops or not is a completely different story. He loves women of all shapes and sized, particularly the little innocent blond ones.
He's a jerk. That's putting it kindly. Sarcasm doesn't rub off well on all people, particularly not on his brother. He's rambunctious, wild, and a complete freak at times. Yes, he can woo a woman with a thousand words, but there is and only ever will be one thing on this man's mind. Sex. Or even just a nice hot make out session. Love doesn't exist to him, at least not anymore. At least, that's what he keeps telling himself. And his diet of choice? Blood. Human blood. Rarely does he drink the same woman twice.

history: Damon grew up in Mystic Falls. However, he grew up in the 1800s. His father was cruel and abusive. He never thought Damon was good enough. And then, his mother had given birth to his brother, Stefan. Stefan had been Damon's light in the darkness. But, shortly after Stefan's birth, his mother had died. It tore Damon apart, but he couldn't blame his poor, innocent, little brother. Stefan was too pure and he couldn't have meant it. Still, that left Damon alone with his father. On that day, he decided he would make sure Stefan never ended up like Giuseppe.
As the boys grew older, Damon taught Stefan the important things in life. While their father taught them how to be gentlemen (AKA: smooth-talking money-hoarders), Damon taught Stefan how to do things right (holding doors for ladies, never being crude in front of women, escorting them, how to date them, etc.). He didn't want Stefan to become a heartless monster. Simultaneously, Damon had the responsibility of being the older brother. And, because of this, he took responsibility for most of the things his brother did wrong. Why? He never wanted his brother to know about their father's cruel ways. He didn't want pure, innocent, little Stefan to be corrupted by their father's belt.
And then, Damon had gone off to war. His father had pushed it and pushed it until Damon had finally snapped. He had decided to go, just to spare himself the misery of seeing his father's face every day. However, he was reluctant to leave Stefan, only 14, with the elder Salvatore. But, the day came and he had to go. He knew that Stefan would take care of himself. The war, however, wasn't at all like he thought it would be. How he lasted three years, he still doesn't know. Because he hated it so much, he decided to leave. Well, they were also losing, but that didn't matter. Damon decided to go back home.
When he got there, he found his brother with a beautiful girl by the name of Katherine Pierce. Katherine was a vampire who liked to play with boys, so she'd gone after Damon, too. She'd pitted the brothers against each other, destroying their relationship. And, eventually, she'd shared blood with them. Soon, though, the town was noticing the vampires' presence. They were going after them. Stefan accidentally hinted to their father that Katherine was a vampire, so she was captured. Damon blamed Stefan and ran off after her. But, as the brothers worked to free the captive vampire, they were shot by their own father.
When Damon woke up, the only thing he knew was that Katherine was gone. He knew he could complete the change by feeding, but he no longer had any desire to live. He decided to die a noble death instead. And, Stefan had planned to join him. But, one night, Stefan came back with a girl in tow. Damon could tell immediately that something was horribly wrong with his brother. Soon, he knew. Stefan had fed. He'd completed the change. And, he wanted Damon to do the same. Stefan had forced him to feed by cutting the throat of the young girl, exposing her blood. When Damon had finished, he'd discovered the joys of being a vampire. But, he vowed never to forgive his brother. For, Katherine had only planned to change him. Stefan wasn't supposed to be in the picture. So, when his brother had asked for an eternity with him, he'd gotten it. But, Damon would make sure that it was an eternity of misery.

role play sample: It had been a week since Damon had been in Mystic Falls. And for good reason, Damon had made himself pretty angry over the whole Bonnie ordeal and to avoid killing innocent people in town and drawing attention back to vampires, Damon hit a different town near by. The whole week he spent it partying, meeting pretty girls and influencing them to feed off. He was very careful not to kill the girls, but the guys that liked to pick a fight with him, he couldn't help.
It was early morning as Damon drove back into Mystic Falls, pretty pleased with himself. He'd broken that promise he'd made to himself to protect Bonnie, but he didn't care. Whatever that was happening a week ago, it was over. In fact he could look at it as he won in the end, because he did get the girl. In a way. Damon still felt a bit guilty about that night he'd spent with Bonnie, but he always pushed this feeling away. He locked them all up in a cupboard and threw away the key, so there was no way he would ever have to think about it again.
But it seemed like the forces of nature had a different plan for Damon, as he almost hit someone running across the road to the cemetery. Damon hit the brakes and swerved, avoiding the person who leaped to the sidewalk. Damon growled and looked out the window, just about the shout abuse at this person when they stood up and looked into the car to see who almost killed them. Obviously Elena had been discussing his absence from the Salvatore boarding house with her friends too. He was also pleased to note that when he looked at Bonnie, those feelings from a week ago didn't come back.
Instead something took over and Damon just knew the little witch was up to something that wasn't going to be a good thing. "Hello Bonnie." Damon said as he got out of the car, taking a step towards her. "Why do you look like you've seen a ghost?" It's amazing at how much can change in one short week. And how much couldn't, Damon was still unsure as to where he stood with Bonnie. As in he didn't know if they would be enemies or if they could work well together. As friends, nothing more. He'd hurt the girl, he knew that, but being Damon he really didn't dwell on it. It just wasn't his thing, comforting girls or… protecting them.
