Echoes of the Past [WAVE 2: CAST AND CREW AUDITIONS]
JayHillVA for Damian Ramírez Main and Backup Voice Actors
/// CHARACTER OVERVIEW ///
One of the main supporting characters in seasons 2 and 3. He is basically the cold exterior with guarded walls around his softer, more kind-hearted self. However, he is still more reality thought based than wishful thinking and is the most blunt of the characters. Damien doesn't like himself due to the more abrasive side he shows off. he feels as though, as much as he wants to show the more kind-hearted side of him, something is stopping him from doing that. He is one of the oldest in the group, right next to Alejandra.

[Low & Honest] “I don’t know how to be soft, okay? Every time I try… it feels like I’m waiting for someone to laugh or walk away. So yeah, I keep the walls up.” [Quietly Vulnerable] “Sometimes I wish I could shut off the part of me that feels. Would make it easier to be the guy everyone already thinks I am.” [Trying to Apologize] “Look… I said some stuff I shouldn’t have. Doesn’t mean I didn’t mean some of it, but... not the part that hurt you. That part—I’m sorry.”
[Blunt & Annoyed] “No, I don’t hate you. I just hate the way you talk like everything’s gonna be fine. Newsflash: it’s not. But sure, go ahead and chase fairytales.” [Defensive & Frustrated] “You think I don’t care? That I’m just some heartless jerk? Maybe open your eyes for once—I’m the only one not pretending everything’s okay.”[Angry & Protective] “Touch her again, and I swear—you’ll regret it. I’m not bluffing, and I’m not gonna say it twice.” [Determined & Cold] “Stay behind me. I don’t care if you think you can handle it—I can. And I’m not losing anyone today.”
[Dry & Ironic] “Yeah, let’s trust the ancient glowing statue in the death cave. What could possibly go wrong? I love near-death experiences before lunch.” [Lonely & Reflective] “You ever wonder if you turned out like this... ‘cause no one stuck around long enough to teach you better? Yeah. Me too.” [Warm but Guarded] “Don’t make me say it out loud, but… I’m glad you’re here. Even if you’re annoying as hell.”
