* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: In the first movie, Deacon Frost was a young, rebellious vampire whose plan relied on ancient magic. Damaskinos, by contrast, is a decidedly old-fashioned "old guard" vampire whose plan relies on cutting-edge science.

* AbusiveParents: [[spoiler:He used his own son, Jared Nomak, as a guinea pig for the Reaper virus, and when Nyssa calls him on his actions, Damaskinos grabs her by the throat and makes it clear that the well-being of his children means nothing to him.]]



* BadBoss: He doesn't so much as blink at the losses the Bloodpack suffers while hunting the Reapers, and when Nomak invades his sanctuary, Damaskinos turns tail and runs, leaving his security force to be slaughtered.



* DirtyCoward: Once Nyssa locks them both in the room for Nomak to find, he's visibly terrified.

* NonActionBigBad: Damaskinos does no fighting himself, relying on the Bloodpack or his security guards to handle any problem that comes his way.



* AffablyEvil: Downplayed; Nomak is predictably vicious to his victims, but he's respectful towards Blade, Whistler ([[PragmaticVillainy albeit with a purpose]]), and shows no malice towards Nyssa [[spoiler:after killing their father]].



* TheBadGuyWins: [[spoiler: He succeeded in killing his father, his primary goal throughout the film, and given that he chooses to take his own life, he likely wanted to die anyway.]]
