About
As the son of Gotham Yakuza boss, he decided he didn’t want to inherit his father’s business and made a point to become a vigilante that targets mob activity in Gotham. However, he loves money and often steals for himself rather than the good of the city.
He went by Vamped for a while before being mortally wounded in a heist (foolishly targeting the Joker) gone wrong and nursed back to health by other Gotham vigilantes, The Outlaws. (Death Heist) Later when he returned to the streets he donned a new costume and started going by ReVamped; now healed, stronger than before and part of the Outlaws.
He lost a bet to his Outlaw teammates and had to get a Nightwing tattoo after sleeping with the hero despite denying that he had feelings for him and swearing he wouldn’t sleep with him.
His left arm is almost completely covered in black ink due to a high coverage tattoo sleeve. After leaving home at 18, he got the sleeve to cover self-inflicted scars. Though the wounds were mostly from him testing his powers, he realized what they would be perceived as and decided it would be best to cover them to avoid questions. However, though he would never admit it to just anyone, some of the oldest scars are from self-harm.
He has a kryptonite necklace he wears casually and under his costume. It’s mostly just because he collects rare and unusual weapons and considers kryptonite to be one. Though he does secretly wear it as a precaution in case he has an unpleasant run in with a Kyrptonian.
Like with the kryptonite necklace, he loves collecting unusual and rare weapons. Some he has stolen and others he’s bought through Gotham’s underground weapons black market. He has everything from old samurai swords to weapons used by heroes and villains alike. His prized possession is one of the first Robin’s collapsible staffs.
He became desensitized to violence and tragedy due to being exposed to it frequently from a young age. Because of this he takes long periods of time to properly process trauma, often leaving him in a closed off and numb state until he does.
After waking from his coma brought on by nearly being killed by the Joker, he fell hard into alcohol. He used it as a crutch to drown the pain, both mental and physical, while he recovered. He became an alcoholic during this time. After he was healed from his near death experience, the Outlaws got him help with his alcoholism having had experiences with the disease due to past Outlaw member, Arsenal.
Despite leaving the Yakuza and nearly completely disowning his parents, Dominik is still in line for the Yakuza throne. His father refuses to accept that he really wants nothing to do with the family business and hopes that someday he will return to the gang to take over.
As a child he loved ice cream. His father always took him for some after his testing and doctor’s appointments(Ice Cream Cones). However, as an adult he can no longer eat it because it reminds him of that traumatic time.
His father insisted that his son was given a traditional Japanese name, and therefore his legal name is Hasigawa Daisuke. However, while his mother agreed to legally give him a Japanese name, she decided to call him Dominik when he began school so he would “fit in” better with his peers.
He doesn’t consider himself a hero or a villain. He knew initially that he was doing good while also benefiting himself; something that didn’t fit either category. But after being taken in by the Outlaws he leans more towards being a hero albeit with loose morals. However he would never refer to himself as a hero; using vigilante is the closest he will come and even then he feels that it’s a bit of a stretch.
He is gay. He’s always known he’s gay and his parents are aware as well. They had no problem when he eventually came out and embraced that side of himself. Though his father has no problem with his sexuality he still insists on Dominik having an heir, often telling him he’ll pay for a surrogate when he is ready.
At 12 he was suffering from severe depression brought on by the aggressive experiments being done on his body and the knowledge that he was destined to become his father. After a particularly rough day of testing he’d finally reached his breaking point and went home to find his father’s stash of drugs. He stole a handful of whatever he could find and disappeared to his room where he swallowed them all. He was rescued when his mother came to check on him and found him mid overdose. This attempt on his own life prompted the end of the experiments and private schooling. His mother pulled him from the school in order to keep a better watch over him and homeschool him.
