History:
Born in an overcrowded metro district, Darius grew up surrounded by crime, corruption, and underground experiments quietly funded by corporate syndicates. He was an ordinary kid until age 17, when he became an unwilling subject in an illegal metahuman augmentation program.
He was the only survivor.
Escaping during a facility meltdown, Darius spent years mastering his dangerous new biology so he wouldn’t become a hazard to others. He entered underground fight circuits as a way to stay sharp and earn cash, gaining a reputation as 'The Taipan'.
Now 33, Darius works as a freelance enforcer and investigator for people the system fails—runaways, trafficked victims, and anyone hunted by the same syndicates that created him. He lives like a ghost, never staying in one place too long, feared by criminals and whispered about by metahumans.
