Damian Resta was one of the founding members of the Akai Tora although he never bothered to become as prominent a leader as Hiroshi Takamoto. He became more bitter after he lost a good friend in a battle against the demons. He was killed by demons who came to retake Vulpengaard Keep. Before his death he managed to help the Fellowship of Maar Sul escape from the prison held by the Akai Tora.
