Damask is a pyromaniac who joined as a gladiator at the Corrida Colosseum to compete for the Mera Mera no Mi.[1]
Appearance
Damask sports a gas mask, with an aviator-style hat. He has thin eyes with predominant lower eye lids, and also has wild and crazy light colored hair.[1]
Personality
Damask seems to be very forceful, trying to attack Hakuba during the pirate's frenzy.[2]
Since he is called a pyromaniac,[1] he could potentially suffer from Pyromania, a compulsive disorder characterized by obsession with fire or uncontrollable urges to start fires, which would also explain his desire to obtain the Mera Mera no Mi.[3]
He has been shown to be honorable, as seen when he confronted Doflamingo with the other gladiators to buy Luffy time.[4]
Abilities and Powers
Not much is known about his skills in combat, but he must be confident in his strength as he entered as a contestant at the Corrida Colosseum.
Weapons
Damask's mask has a flamethrower built into the mouth section, capable of spitting intense streams of flames[2] and seems to be emitting smoke even during times when it is not in use.[5]
History
Dressrosa Saga
Dressrosa Arc
Damask entered the Corrida Colosseum to compete for the Mera Mera no Mi. For the battle royale, he was placed in D Block.[1] As the battle royale began, Damask was preparing to fight.[6]
When 20 fighters remained, Cavendish's alter-ego Hakuba suddenly surfaced and proceeded to strike down all the remaining fighters in D Block. Damask tried to attack the pirate with a blast of fire, but he missed and hit Mummy instead. Damask fell victim to Hakuba's attack and lay defeated on the arena.[7]
During the final phase of Doflamingo's Birdcage game, Damask and many other gladiators tried to fight a wounded Doflamingo in order to bring down the Birdcage but they were easily defeated.[4] However, they did buy enough time for Monkey D. Luffy to recover, enabling him to defeat Doflamingo and bring down the Birdcage.[8]
Major Battles

Anime and Manga Differences
Although the manga shows his flamethrower emitting smoke even when he does not use it, the anime does not show smoke, even when using it.
