Damon also had a hand in turning Elena into a vampire. She had his blood in her system when she died, and when she woke, she thought she was in love with him. I did eventually read the books and I loved Damon in those too, but I first fell in love with the show and him by default.

The Vampire Diaries by L. Smith Damon Salvatore was born June 18th, on the show and October 30th, in the books.. Damon only trusts a handful of people, but anyone would be stupid to trust him. He is very protective of the small group people he loves. Damon is rather self hating.
However, he lives by the philosophy of being bad with a purpose. Everything he does has a reason behind it which is almost why he goes in to his self-destructive phrases. He is cocky and vain on occasion and pretends not to see his faults. Damon may appear selfish but he would give everything he could to those he loves - especially his younger brother Stefan. Being the elder of the Salvatore brothers, Damon was tall, dark, charming, and intelligent.
He grew up with a privileged life, a member of one of the Founding Families of Mystic Falls. He enjoyed a close sibling relationship with his brother Stefan, even though they were about six years apart from each other. Sometime when the Civil War broke out in Mystic Falls, Damon enlisted in the Confederate Army and served his time in the Army - fighting for his state.
However, Damon returned to Mystic shortly when he was on leave. Adrienne Adrienne 1. Bobby Bobby 1. Welcome to SciFi. What are your sources for this information? Delena Delena 1 1 1 bronze badge.

Now live: A fully responsive profile. Upcoming Events. November Topic Challenge: Samuel R. Delany ends Nov He told her to tell Katherine to come get the device herself. Later, Elena tries to get the device from Damon so Bonnie can de-spell it; Elena hopes to trade the device for Jeremy, who has been kidnapped by Isobel. Bonnie displays her powers by retrieving Damon's favorite book, Call of the Wild, from the library shelf with only the power of her mind.
He admits that he doesn't trust Bonnie, but he will trust Elena, so he gives her the device. Damon is also present for the 'de-spell. Elena asks Isobel how she knew Damon would give her the device, and Isobel responds, "Because he's in love with you. Stefan later confronts Damon about it, but he seems to be alright with his love for Elena, because it means he'll protect her.
Damon also reveals that John Gilbert is Elena's real father, and he's amused that the others didn't put the pieces together as quickly. When she and Stefan are on the parade float waving to the crowd, Elena waves, smiling at Bonnie, and Damon appears between them and waves back. He then turns to Bonnie and thanks her for de-spelling the device, surprising Bonnie with his sincerity.
He sees Elena at the Mystic Grill later and tells her that he likes her better in normal clothing. She says that Stefan is worried about their 'friendship. Stefan 'rescues' Jeremy from him and insists Damon is only doing it for his own benefit.
While wandering around during the Founder's Day Celebration, Damon encounters Anna , who tells him the tomb vampires will be killing the founding families as soon as the fireworks start.
Damon goes straight to Alaric , and then to Elena and Stefan, who he warns to leave the party as soon as possible.
He goes to the building where John Gilbert is setting up the device, but, unfortunately, Bonnie never de-spelled it, and it made him collapse. He was injected with Vervain and put in the basement of the Gilbert Building to be burned alive.
Stefan, with the help of Bonnie, manages to save Damon's life. After being rescued, Damon visits Jeremy to tell him about Anna 's death. He offers to wipe Jeremy's memory again, but Jeremy tells him he still feels 'empty' inside, and forgetting will fix nothing.
He also admits that what he did to Vicki Donovan was wrong and apologizes for his part in it. When asked if vampires can shut out their humanity, Damon told him the truth, not realizing that Jeremy was going to kill himself. While leaving, Damon encountered who he thought was Elena on the porch. He thanked her for seeing something in him worth saving, and after kissing her on the forehead, he kissed her on the lips, only to be interrupted by a very confused Jenna.
It turns out this was not Elena, but Katherine pretending to be her. In The Return , Directly following the events of the season one finale, Damon arrives at the hospital, expressing worry to Sheriff Forbes about her daughter, Caroline. She tells him that the mayor, Richard Lockwood , is dead, but that he couldn't have been a vampire. He comforts her, but seems incredibly intrigued by the fact that Lockwood was affected by the Gilbert Device.
When Elena arrives at the hospital worried about Caroline. He points out that Bonnie doesn't know how to cure Caroline with a spell, and offers to give Caroline enough blood to make sure she lives. Elena turns it down immediately, but Bonnie agrees.
When Bonnie leaves, Damon attempts to bring up the fact that they kissed, but Elena blows him off, saying she has no idea what he's talking about. He grabs her arm, saying, "If you wanna forget this happened, fine, but I can't.
He recruits Elena and heads back to her home, where they find Stefan , who had just got out of a fight with Katherine. The three of them sit down in the dining room and talk about what Katherine wants, where Stefan asks Damon exactly what happened between them. Damon admits he kissed her, thinking she was Elena, and Stefan attempts to attack him.
Elena stops him, claiming that she wouldn't do that. While trying to formulate a plan, Damon leaves, declaring that he'll just ignore her and see where that gets him. Damon goes to the Lockwood Mansion and breaks up a fight between Carol Lockwood and Elizabeth Forbes , who are discussing the death of the mayor. He questions Sheriff Forbes about Mason Lockwood and finds out that he's Tyler Lockwood 's uncle, and the brother of the mayor, but he knows nothing about the Town Council.
When Bonnie goes to talk to Damon in the dining room, wondering if he's suspicious about both Tyler and the mayor being affected by the Gilbert Device , he ends up irritating her until she uses magic to hurt his head.
He later speaks to Elena out on the Lockwood's porch, where she asks him how he's doing. He doesn't admit that he's hurt until Elena tells him that she's surprised he thought she'd kiss him back. He also appears after Katherine stabs Stefan, trying to pick a fight with his little brother, though he doesn't seem too serious about it. Stefan warns him that Katherine will get between them, but Damon, sarcastically, denies that it's possible. She asks Damon to spearhead the Town Council while she's acting as interim-mayor.
He accepts just as Mason and Tyler come back to the house, and listens to their conversation about anger problems. When Stefan comes home later, he seems to have occupied himself with investigating the Lockwoods' family secret. He later attends the carnival , where he speaks to Jeremy. When Jeremy threatens to tell everyone about vampires, Damon grows serious and drags him behind the concession stand, where he takes his ring and puts him in a headlock, pointing out how easy it would be to really kill him.
He also watches Mason and Tyler arm-wrestling, where he volunteers Stefan to go up against Mason. Stefan admits that he's supernaturally strong after losing to him, which further interest Damon.
He compels a carnival worker to pick a fight with Tyler to make him angry. Later, the newly-transitioned Caroline confronts Damon in the school hallway, telling him that she remembers everything he compelled her to forget. He goes straight to Elena, and, along with Stefan, they meet in Alaric 's classroom. He is convinced that killing Caroline is the only thing they can do, and, locating her by the dead body of her newest victim, he attempts to stake her. He's stopped by Stefan the first time and Elena the second, who bravely steps between him and Caroline.
He's in charge of disposing of the body, and when he says something particularly crude in the presence of Bonnie, she sets him on fire. Elena manages to stop the witch before Damon is killed. When Damon returns to the boarding house, Jeremy is there, and he's laced Damon's alcohol with Vervain.
He admits that he was there to kill him, but decided against it because of the blind hatred of his parents. They decide to go to Duke University, where Alaric's wife, Isobel , still has an office full of research. Stefan doesn't come, as he's still watching over Caroline, and when Damon taunts him for this, Elena kisses Stefan to spite him.
Throughout the drive, Damon tries to convince Elena that he knew Jeremy would come back to life when he killed him. When they arrive on campus, Isobel's old research assistant lets them into her office, but attempts to shoot Elena with a crossbow, as she knows who Katherine is.
Damon moves in front of her, taking the arrow in the back, and Elena is the one to pull it out. Disturbed by this, Elena calls Stefan to warn him.
He taunts her again with the information he claims to know. When Elena tells him that friends are supposed to help each other, he follows her to the car and gives her a book , which bears Katherine's original last name.
He admits that he doesn't want to lose their friendship forever. Near the end of the episode, he walks her to her door, where she asks him if he honestly knew Jeremy was wearing the Gilbert Ring. He genuinely apologizes, but Elena tells him that he's lost her forever, revealing that she manipulated him to get information about Katherine. Hurt, Damon tells her that she has much more in common with Katherine than her looks.
He wants to find out more about Mason Lockwood , and throughout the evening, he continues to drop innuendos to Tyler's uncle, like drawing a wolf while playing Pictionary, and trying to get him to serve the pie with a silver utensil. Mason confronts him in the kitchen, hoping to keep the age-old rivalry out of their lives. Damon continues to antagonize him, suspicious about his presence in Mystic Falls.
Eventually, he agrees to a truce, but he takes a knife from Jenna 's silver set and follows Mason outside, where he stabs him in the stomach. Mason heals immediately, warning Damon that he's made an enemy. After Elena and Stefan have their fake fight at the grill, Damon leaves and encounters Katherine outside, who he reacts to coldly.
In Kill or Be Killed , Damon continues to listen in on Stefan and Elena's fake arguments, revealing that he knows it wasn't real. He takes a cup of lemonade from a little girl, but is shocked to learn that it's been spike with Vervain. Furious, Damon attempts to kill Mason, but he and Stefan are shot with wooden bullets in the forest, falling right into Elizabeth's trap. She takes them to The Lockwood Cellar , where she demands to know how he can walk in the sun.
Damon doesn't tell her, but says that he thought they were actually friends. She shoots him repeatedly with wooden bullets until, eventually, Caroline manages to save their lives. Damon feeds on one of the dead deputies and tries to convince Stefan to do the same. And then, staggering because of his injuries, he confronts Sheriff Forbes, who asks him to kill her. Damon refuses on the basis that they're friends, keeping her locked up until the Vervain leaves her system so he can compel her to forget that he, Stefan, and Caroline are vampires.
Later, when he encounters Elena in the living room of the Salvatore house, she tells him that sparing Caroline's mother was more like the Damon that she was friends with. Alaric comes by later, surprised to see Jeremy. He gives Damon the research from Isobel's office. Damon wants Jeremy to retrieve the moon stone from Tyler, and, upon finding out that Katherine and Mason are together, he speculates that Katherine wants the moon stone.
The brothers ask Bonnie to touch Mason Lockwood to find out what he wants with the stone. Though he asks rudely, Bonnie agrees to help them. She uses her magic on Mason, effectively subduing him so that they can capture him.
Damon takes him to the Salvatore Mansion and chains him into a chair. While there, Bonnie attempts to get into Mason's mind, revealing that the moon stone is being kept in a well of some kind. When Mason grabs her, Damon pries his hand away, thanking her as she's leaving the room.
He cruelly tortures the young man by shoving a red-hot fire-poker into his chest repeatedly. He questions him about Katherine, but gets no response. Jeremy later delivers wolfs bane, which Damon uses to further his torture of Mason.
He shoves the plant into Mason's mouth, causing him immense pain. Mason reveals that he's getting the stone for Katherine so she can lift the curse of the moon, because she supposedly loves him.
Seemingly entertained, Damon tells Jeremy to leave or get over his sympathy. After Jeremy leaves, he ends Mason's life by ripping his heart from his chest. Stefan arrives later, while he's cleaning up the body, giving Damon the moon stone to hide. Finding that the last number Mason dialed was Katherine's, Damon calls her, much to Stefan's disapproval.
He taunts Katherine with Mason's death, angering her. After Jenna stabs herself, on Katherine's compulsion, Damon confronts Elena and apologizes for provoking her. In Masquerade , Damon participates in a conversation with Stefan and Caroline, claiming that he's going to the Masquerade Ball to kill Katherine. Bonnie comes over later, while Damon and Alaric are discussing weapons in the background.
Stefan and Damon show up at the Masquerade Ball with masks on, discussing how one of them might hesitate while killing Katherine. They meet up again after Katherine kills Aimee Bradley ; Stefan wants to call the plan off, as he didn't anticipate human death, but Damon objects and they agree to go through with it.
When they trap Katherine in one of the Lockwood Mansion 's rooms, they attack her viciously, stabbing her multiple times with their supply of stakes. Jeremy arrives to tell them that their every action toward Katherine is being reflected onto Elena, which stops the in their tracks.
Katherine continually tries to hurt herself to cause Elena pain, but she's stopped by the Salvatores. She tries to make a deal with them; she wants the moon stone back. She also tells Damon that he used to be boring, and tries to antagonize them by pointing out Damon's love for Elena.
Damon is the first to give in to her taunts, attempting to stake Katherine after pouring her a drink. Stefan stops him, but Katherine continues to play with his emotions, wondering when Damon got so hot. The witch Lucy uses the moon stone to subdue Katherine, apologizing to the brothers for her involvement with Katherine. Damon carries Katherine's body to the tomb, throwing both her and the moon stone inside. As he shuts the door, she tries to stop him by claiming that Elena is in danger.
He listens to her momentarily, but then shuts her inside. Damon, again, seems to have been emotionally affected by Katherine as he walks away. In Rose , Damon appears at Caroline's house, whose explaining how Tyler killed a girl at the Masquerade ball. He questions what Caroline has told Tyler about him and Stefan, convinced he knows something. He tells her not to befriend Tyler.
Later, he talks to Stefan about Elena's disappearance. He tells him that Katherine knew Elena was in danger. The two of them take a Vervain grenade from Alaric and, using Bonnie's instructions, go to rescue Elena. Stefan thanks him for coming, but attempts to get him to admit he only came because he loves Elena. The two have a brief conversation outside before coming in to rescue Elena from Elijah.
Damon drives a large piece of wood through Elijah's chest, and while Elena is hugging Stefan, she mouths a thank-you to Damon, as well. Later, when Damon is drinking at the boarding house, Stefan approaches and tells Damon they should learn to work together, or they won't be able to protect Elena.
He also apologizes for making Damon turn into a vampire. Damon seems surprised by his words, and this prompts him to visit Elena in her bedroom, where he reveals that he found Elena's necklace.
He doesn't give it to her at first, holding it as he tells her that he loves her, but that he doesn't deserve her; Stefan does. Tears can be seen in his eyes as he says this. He compels her to forget what he said and, after returning the necklace, leaves her room. In Katerina , Damon expresses immediate distrust toward Rose , who comes back to tell them that a legendary vampire named Klaus is after Elena. He doesn't want Elena to believe that she's in danger.
After Elena leaves to talk to Katherine , Damon spends the day with Rose. He asks her if she knows where Klaus is, and convinces her to take him to see the vampire who supposedly knows where to look.
She tells him that he can trust her, and the two of them go inside. Slater immediately recognizes Damon; he knows the year he was turned and the person who turned him, which seems to make Damon suspicious.
They talk about Slater's very long link to Elijah, which was severed when Damon killed him. Slater tells them that, if Elijah wanted the moon stone, he might've been planning to break the vampire-side of the curse so that the werewolves wouldn't break their side. Rose is seriously injured by sun exposure and Damon is forced to carry her back to the car, where she tells him that they're all going to be killed by Klaus.
Later, Rose apologizes for the surprise attack, expressing a desire to save Elena. Rose gets a call from Slater, who tells her she needs the moonstone to lift the curse, and a witch to figure the rest out. In The Sacrifice , Stefan and Damon visit Katherine together, as the moon stone is in the tomb with her.
They come directly to Elena's home afterwards, explaining that she wanted out of the tomb, if they wanted the moon stone. They also tell her that they must "release" the spell from the moon stone so Klaus won't be able to sacrifice Elena. When Elena tells them that she doesn't want Klaus to kill everyone she cares about, both brothers express extreme surprise. Damon appears later during their meeting with Bonnie, where Jeremy tries to convince them to let him retrieve the moon stone.
While he's planning to incapacitate Katherine to get the stone, Damon gets a call from Rose, who tells them about Elena's plan to give herself over to Klaus. She tells him that she would rather die than let Klaus kill the people she loves. He threatens her, grabbing her arm, and when she attempts to hit him, he menacingly warns her to never do that again. Three men arrive and Damon immediately tries to protect Elena, even from Elijah, who was supposed to be dead.
Elijah flees, leaving Damon to drive Elena home on his own. The two of them bicker on the front porch, but Elena is surprised to find an injured Jeremy waiting for her. When she finds that Stefan has been trapped in the tomb with Katherine, Damon stops her from entering, restraining her against the doorway until she leaves. Stefan makes him promise to protect Elena while he's unable to.
He tries to give him blood, but Stefan refuses, not wanting to share with Katherine. She's angry with him, but Damon continues to have a care-free attitude. He gets a call from Alaric , who tells him that a woman from Florida has come searching for Mason Lockwood. He meets Alaric at the bar, who's been having a conversation with the woman.
While Damon is distracting her, Alaric pours wolfsbane into her drink. Damon talks to her about Mason, claiming to be one of his friends, but she responds suspiciously when he tries to get her to have a drink with him in other words, to sip the wolfsbane so he can tell if she's a werewolf.
She doesn't fall for it, able to smell the wolfsbane in his drink. Damon threatens her, but she responds by declaring how strong she is on this night in-particular the full moon. Alaric warns Damon to go home and stay inside, because one bite from the werewolf will effectively end his life.
He goes home, where Rose has been waiting. He acts coldly toward her as she tries to apologize about helping Elena, admitting she has nowhere else to go. When Jules , the werewolf he taunted in the bar, leaps through one of the Salvatore's windows, she bites Rose's shoulder before Damon stabs her, getting her to run off. The bite heals immediately, mystifying both vampires.
Rose is terrified that her life almost ended, and Damon comforts her with a hug. The two are seen again in the living room, where they begin another heated sexual encounter, but they're interrupted when Damon discovers that the bite on her shoulder has resurfaced.
This is particularly devastating news to Damon, because the two of them were just beginning to develop a friendship. In The Descent , Damon cares for Rose trying to convince her that she'll get better. When he looks at the worsening wound, he pretends that it's getting better. He asks Elena to watch over Rose, but he rejects the fact that he's upset about Rose's impending death.
Damon goes from there to the Mystic Grill , where he immediately goes for Jules. Stefan stops him, but he continues, sitting down at her table. Though he pretended he didn't care about Rose, he asks how to cure a werewolf bite. She won't tell him, and she taunts him about how much pain Rose will be in, and how she'll soon be rabid from dementia.
He tracks Rose down after she slaughters a man. He meets up with Elena, who he arms with a wooden stake. He stops Rose before she takes yet another victim, pinning her to the ground in a parking lot. He comforts her when she realizes what she's done, picking her up and carrying her back to the Salvatore Boarding House.
Damon watches over her after putting her back in his bed, where he reacts coldly to Elena's presence. He also snaps at Rose, denying that he cares about her. He sends Elena away, getting into bed with Rose and holding her against his chest. He sends her a dream of the place she was born and raised, where the two of them sit together in a beautiful meadow. Just as she admits that she's no longer afraid of dying, actually hopeful she'll see Trevor again, Damon stakes her to end her suffering.
A tear goes down his cheek as he does this. He delivers her body to Sheriff Forbes to explain the earlier attacks on humans and when he returns to the boarding house, Elena is waiting. She tries to comfort him, but he denies that there's anything wrong with him.
Elena hugs him anyway, and Damon's eyes begin to visibly water. That same night, Damon is lying in the middle of the road when a woman named Jessica stops her car to check on him. He tells her that he's lost existentially, metaphorically. When he drinks alcohol from a flask, she runs back to her car, but he compels her not to move.
He admits that he can't be what other people want him to be, and he tells her that he misses being human more than anything in the world, debating whether or not he should kill her. After he tells her she's free to go, he pursues her and kills her anyway. In Daddy Issues , Damon first appears in the shower, a very dark look on his face as he listens to a news report about the people Rose killed. They mention the woman he killed in the road.
When Stefan tries to comfort him about Rose's death, Damon reacts sarcastically and leaves. He goes to the Gilbert House , where he demands to know John's location. They find John at the grill, where he's interrupting Jenna 's date with Alaric. He tries to get information out of him, threatening his life because he's lacking his resurrection ring.
His threat is ineffective because John doesn't trust him. When Jenna tries to get him to date her friend, Andie Star , he blows her off.
Elena receives a call from Stefan regarding Tyler Lockwood , and Elena and Damon have a heated discussion in the bathroom. He wants to kill Tyler because of what he knows. Elena tells him to be the better man. When John arrives, wondering what's happening, Damon tells John to keep Elena there so he can go rescue Caroline , who is being held captive and tortured by Jules and her boyfriend, Brady. Stefan and Damon are almost killed during this rescue, but they're spared by the warlock Jonas Martin , who was working with Elijah.
John later gives Damon a bottle of white oak ashes and a silver dagger with which to kill an Original. That night, Damon invites Andie Star to his house and the two of them share a bubble bath.
Damon tells her that he's in love with a woman he can never have, and that he doesn't trust himself around anyone. He says that he kills people, but he compels her to be unafraid. When asked why he kills people, Damon says that he likes it, and that Elena wants him to be the better man, but his nature won't allow it.
While kissing her, Damon slips down her neck and bites her, filling the bathtub with her blood. In Crying Wolf , Damon has bandaged Andie's neck, and they walk downstairs together. She reveals that she's going to the Historical Society Tea Party , something Damon invites himself to. He also gets her story straight so she won't tell anyone he bit her, and he tells Alaric, who has just come in, that she's his new girlfriend.
He tells Alaric about the dagger, and Alaric says that he and Jenna will also be at the party. He claims his goal isn't killing Elijah, but meeting him for the first time. At the party, which is being held in the large Lockwood Mansion , Damon meets up with Andie, also greeting Carol Lockwood and introducing himself, officially, to Elijah. Damon and Elijah have a conversation in the sitting room, where Damon questions his motives and goes so far as to physically block him from the exit.
Elijah responds with physical violence, stabbing Damon in the neck with a broken pencil.
