I wanted to put them together all in one post, because they’re really pretty and I’m weak. And since I just posted all my single gems I figured I’d post these lovely ladies as well together

Stream stuff. I’ll probably be up again later, but for now I need to grab some food and do some laundry.

Based on an AU idea where Damas is the Shadow instead of Samos created by Necrogear 

So while we’re here, why not have Dead Town be the catalyst for Damas’s defection instead of Torn?

 Damas taking the throne just after his mother and wife’s deaths with little Jak/Mar to take care of as well as an entire city. He goes by the word of the council and all the horrible decisions he makes are against his better judgement, for example the several raids on the Slums looking for Underground members.

Eventually, the council would start to get fed up of Damas when he comes into his own and started making his own decisions and calls. Cue, Praxis, one of Damas’ most trusted advisors, cutting an underhand deal with the council and Kor to get rid of the boy-king Damas as well as getting rid of peasants the city couldn’t afford to sustain anymore. An attack by metal heads would solidify the people’s need for a strong leader and Praxis could just as easily fill that gap as blame it on Damas.

They send Damas to swing for his ‘crimes against the city’ but he’s saved by Underground members in the nick of time. Because Praxis wouldn’t want that to inspire hope in the more loyal Damas supporters, he would claim Damas was killed according to plan and parade the bodies of the few Underground Members that were caught. While half the city celebrated its new Baron and the rest mourned their kind Prince, Torn would start second guessing the Baron who up until then was his idol/commander in Chief.

Later, maybe months later, when hears about the new Leader of the Resistance, the Shadow. He decides to do some digging, not as Commander Rhett of the City Guard and the Baron’s attack dog, but as Torn, a former slum boy. That’s when he meets back up with Tess who’s been supplying the Underground with retrofitted fire power and her brother Jinx who’s Krew’s errand boy and informant to the resistance.

He helps out on enough occasions that Damas gets curious, why would Torn Rhett, the man that worked as Praxis’ enforcer want anything to do with them? So he arranges a meet up in Dead Town, Samos’ hut to be precise, where the young Samos managed to repel the attack with the power of the life seed. Samos in this verse is the Underground’s healer and head of intel, I’m going to say he has at least a rudimentary understanding of what the plants say and can get as far as the wastes on a good day.

Torn meets with Damas and is almost surprised that he’s still alive, more shocked that Haven rumours were true than that Praxis fucked up an assassination. Damas asks him what the fuck he’s doing, Praxis is gonna find out eventually and have him and everyone he loves killed. Torn wants to know the real story behind Dead Town because a lot of good people were murdered, eaten, by those monsters and shit just ain’t adding up.

Damas calls him a fool but tells him what they’d managed to find out; that Praxis had cut a desperate deal with the metals and that very soon he wouldn’t be able to keep up his end of the bargain. The Underground Movement is actually trying to help the people but the only way to win would be for Damas to be put back on the throne. Torn swears up a blue storm and immediately pledges his allegiance to the true ruler of Haven. He works as a double agent for months until Praxis promotes Erol, one of Torn’s former friends, to commander as a way of gaining public approval. Erol finds out about Torn’s double cross and outs him to Praxis who sentences his to death.

Erol’s ambitious af though and needs to get in good with Praxis. So he strikes a deal with Torn, continue playing the double agent, but to me. I’ll let you live, I’ll even let you join your little Underground resistance and in return you give me the information I want so I can look good to Praxis. And just to sweeten the deal I’ll even send a little info your way every so often, ‘Call me your informer’.

Torn, of course, accepts and goes into hiding with Damas. Samos takes care of lil Jak when he can but Damas wants his son no where near him, as much as it hurts. If the two of them get caught together it’d mean the end of their plan because Damas valued his son over all else, even the city he loved. So when Jinx gets Torn a link with Krew, that link being Sig, Damas sees an opportunity. Spargus is full of council haters and people who’ve been exiled in the last few months, people who’d possibly be loyal to Damas, it’s a long shot but the only one he has.

He gets in Sig’s good graces, gets to know the man and makes a plan. He’ll leave the city, he’ll gain the trust of Spargus just like he did the Underground and continue his operations from there. His son, Mar, will stay in Haven under the watchful eye of the Underground because Damas’ plan is too long a shot to take him.

Damas leaves and the Torn puts out rumours that ‘The Shadow’ is dead to throw off Erol and the rest. Because the one thing Torn will never tell Erol would be the whereabouts of Damas and Mar. Damas takes a year to win the throne of Spargus but he’s managed to coordinate strikes on Haven and still run the resistance as best he can.

By the time Jak and company slingshot into the future, Damas has been Spargus’ king for a year, nearly three since his supposed death. Two years later Torn gets wind of the DWP, just as the project is closing down and Jak joins the fight.

When he defends Dead Town and the scared site, Samos plays decoy for Damas who is personally coming back to Haven to lead the fight from ground zero once more. He’s seen the Metal Heads advancing across the wastes for a year now and he spent that year fortifying Spargus and shuttling his people back out to Haven.

By the time Damas is back in the city, Spargus is empty and locked up tight against Marauders, Torn has been outed as a traitor to the Underground and Damas is even more eager to meet the young man who faced the tests of Manhood.

When they meet, face to face, Damas sees his dead wife and Jak sees the true face of the Underground, a grizzled old warrior that he can actually respect. By the time it’s discovered little Mar was missing, stolen away by Kor, Damas is swamped by Metal Heads and is leading Spargans into defending the home that threw them out.

He isn’t there to go with Jak and Dax as they break open the nest but he is there to kamikaze his hellcat into Kor. He manages to crawl out of the wreckage as the Precursor Stone cracks open and Samos explains the time loop. Damas isn’t too badly hurt but he feels as though his heart is being ripped from his chest as he says goodbye to his child. The same child he has not been able to see in so many years because it would not be safe. But he knows SandOver is the place for his boy, a safe place with none of the horrors they face today, and that it is his destiny. Damas gives his blessing and tells him “don’t forget to visit your old man in the future”.

Jak, in true Jak fashion, snarls for the Precursor to come the fuck back here and fix Damas because you’ve taken his son from him, his city and his home, the least you fuckers could do is give him back his health. Which the light being grudgingly does because they owe their hero this much at least. 

The end scene is Jak standing next to Damas, both of them looking a little awkward as Samos gives his speech and Daxter and Pecker roll around on the ground. The last thing we see is a tentative smile between father and son.
