Strength Level: Touch possesses the normal human strength of a man his age, height and build who engages in intensive regular exercise.
Known Superhuman Powers: Touch is a tactile telekinetic. He is able to move objects with the power of his mind but must have some form of physical contact with the object. The limits of his power have yet to be tested but he managed to fly himself and the White Queen over vast distances, although the effort left him exhausted. It would appear that his powers are limited only by his concentration and strength of will. He has recently developed this power so that he can levitate objects without physical contact – but he finds this a great exertion.
Abilities/Special Skills: Computer whiz. Expert hacker and programmer.
Weapons Used: None.
Personality: Touch is the youngest of the Hellions and this makes him feel a little isolated from the others. The discovery that his parents were murdered by the Inner Circle had a profound effect on him, and he is suspicious of everyone around him, all except for Shade, whom he considers his best friend.
Personal Interests: Computers. Damien is currently working on upgrading Oracle, the Hellions and Hellfire Club’s sentient computer system.
History: Damien grew up as normal as a kid could grow up whose parents owned one of the largest software companies in the country. Damien was an only child whose father spoiled him rotten, while his mother never seemed to want to be with him until shortly after his 14th birthday. This was because at this time Damien discovered he was a mutant and his mother saw him as her way into the Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club. Renée gave custody of her only son over to Krystil Frost, The White Queen in exchange for a seat at the Inner Circle's table. Frost never intended to honour this commitment but needed Damien for her new team of Hellions. She and The White King arranged for the parents to be killed in a shuttlecraft crash shortly after Damien joined the Hellions. Damien discovered that the Inner Circle were responsible and swore revenge, although he hid his intentions from everyone else. Damien became bitter and secretive, and carries his fathers walking cane with him as a reminder of his promise and of how much he loved his father. It has recently been revealed that Damien was responsible for murdering the White King, and using one of Frost’s daggers so that she would be implicated. He has apparently managed to do this without anyone knowing, but does not consider that he has yet gained revenge and it seems he wants to bring down the entire Inner Circle.
Damien recently fought The Seven and during the battle learned that his former team mate Conjur had feelings for him. Damien did not return these feelings, but remains conflicted about his sexuality
