Damian Shade (デミアン・シェイド) is a character in Groove On Fight. While he basically only watches over Gartheimer's battle in the background, he can be made into a playable character by beating the game with any two characters in the console port. It is possible to play as him in the original arcade version via hacking, but he's in a very incomplete state. Damian was voiced by Seiji Kawagishi.
About Damian[]

Trivia[]
- He and Rudolph Gartheimer are the first openly gay couple in a fighting game.
- It seems that at one point, Damian was meant to be playable in the original arcade version, since there's an incomplete (but playable) version of him that can be accessed by ROM hacking. One possible lead to this being true is that Gartheimer doesn't have a selectable "official" tag partner in this version, indicating Damian to fill that spot. He was completed for the console port of the game.
