Damian Deimos is the personal bodyguard to the Pythia in the city of Krisa in the Achaean Empire. He largely keeps his Nordling nature a secret, masquerading as best he can as an exceptionally tall Imperial. Known for both his smart mouth, exceptionally quick wit, and devil-may-care nature, as well as his unfaltering faith in Apollo and extreme dedication to his job as guardian of the Pythia, Damian is a terrifying holy warrior capable of going from laid-back and annoying to vicious and fearless in a moment's notice.

Biography

Given Damian's nature, no one outside of his own family is quite sure which story about his background is true. Born somewhere in or near Krisa, Damian was the seventh son of a family with eight sons and no daughters. With a robust family history that he never talks about, Damian often prefers not to openly acknowledge the fact that he is Nordling rather than Achaean by blood. As a child, his family sent him off to the Imperial Legion, where his great physical capability and intelligence eventually placed him among the best: the Red Legion. For many years, he served under his Centurion, Caiden Voros, hand-picked by Caiden as his *optio*, or lieutenant. Damian became a skilled and respected solder, but when Caiden's unit was disgraced, Damian left the Legion and returned to Krisa, using his incredible prowess to prove himself worthy of becoming the temple's greatest guardian, bodyguard to the Pythia herself - one of the few things in life he does, in fact, take seriously.

Appearances

Damian will be an important character in the upcoming novel The Hunt for the Orb of Death and will appear in some other works.
