So, Damen is brand new. There are two things about him that are particularly relevant here! The first is that he is a very well-trained and experienced fighter. Whether he's throwing knives, spears, or actual swords, or fighting with a sword in his hands, or fighting with his bare hands, he's comfortable fighting and very comfortable with killing. He's also huge, both in height and in muscle mass, so dealing with him is generally a handful, even at the best of times. Unless you have, either: a group who can help you overwhelm him with numbers, or powers that would subdue him, he's going to be difficult to defeat in combat.
The second thing about Damen is that he is very prone to rage. He has a hair trigger temper, and when fighting, he goes into a kind of battle haze where he kills multiple people all around him and is barely aware of it until he notices the carnage later. He is therefore going to be particularly susceptible to the anger and rage caused by this event, and seeing Handsome Jack is likely to trigger his battle haze. So! Player of Handsome Jack! What are your feelings about this event? I am canonblind to Borderlands! How would Jack fare in a fight with Damen? Do you want them to fight and if so how do you want it to end? Damen would not have enough resistance to Rage's influence to hold back on his own, so he will be aiming to kill if he has you in his sights! About the only thing that could cut through his haze and make him think twice about this is a command from Laurent of Vere, who tends to listen to even when he's not thinking for himself. I've checked with Laurent's mun, and he will be available to help if needed!
When it comes to Cho Hakkai - he will not have any particular feelings about Cho! However, he will not hesitate to fight back against someone who attacks him, and while it's unlikely that a one on one fight would make him lose control of his temper, he'll hit back with force and skill. Again, I am canonblind - how do you want to play this? Will it come to a fight / will Cho resist the impulse? If it comes to a fight, how would Cho fare against him and how do you want that to go down? Unfortunately, if Cho is going for the kill, then so will Damen - he's not the type to run from a fight.
