While Damian might seem like a gambler with no future in sight, he wasn't always like this. He was once a sunny young man with his future ahead of him, but it all came crashing down. He was at work one day, when he received a call, informing him his mom was at the hospital. He immediately asked for permission from his boss and rushed to the hospital, while praying to Jesus, Buddha, any deity really for their mercy on his mom, however, either they didn't hear, or simply didn't care.
