Despite initially not being very sporty, he maintains an average build, mostly due to a healthy diet. [hider=] [img]http://www.gunnars.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/typical-gamer-final.jpg[/img] [/hider] [b]Personality:[/b] Darius didn’t seem very social due to his constant level headed and sometimes cold attitude, often trying to hide his emotions. He, however enjoyed getting to know people and was always ready to help if the need arises. After losing his best friend he grew somewhat bitter and cynical for a while. Not long after he returned to his old self after accepting what had happened. Not entirely however. He now has a habit of viewing most situation he finds himself in as satirical manner and won’t hesitate to drop sarcastic comments at times. [b]History:[/b] Darius was born in Russia and raised by his Russian father and American mother. They moved to Ashton when Darius was just a few months old and as a result of this he never learned Russian. Most of his early life remained largely uneventful. It panned out like the life of any average Joe. He went to school, met people, made friends, then high-school, met more people made more friends and so on. Most of those friends were the kind of friends you had just because you saw them every day in class. As soon as a vacation or something similar started, it was like Darius didn’t exist to them and they didn’t exist to him. During his time in high-school he discovered video games through some friends which is what prompted him to go on studying information technology. People often told him he had knack for all things PC related. During this time he got a part time job, earning just enough to afford an apartment of his own. It soon became a necessity when his parents decided to move back to Russia. It was during his college time studying IT that he met what would become his best friend, Steven. Despite initially not having similar interests they somehow got along amazingly well. The two were suddenly like brothers and indulging in each other’s hobbies. Steven picked up gaming, while Darius joined the archery club Steven was part of for quite a while. Every weekend they would go to the archery club meet ups and the rest of the time they would spend playing video games. That was until one eventful day at the archery range. One of the student from that same college joined the archery club. Fateful circumstances were set in motion that day starting with the new student arriving late that day and skipping the safety briefing in the process. The safety briefing that included the fact that nobody should be letting arrows loose while the already fired ones were being retrieved. It was an accident waiting to happen and sure enough, just as Steven was on his way to retrieve arrows the new guy shot another one at the target. The arrow however never reached said target. Darius' eyes widened in shock as he watched his friend collapse to his knees then slump over, with an arrow sticking out the back of his head. Steven survived. The doctors explained the arrow didn’t penetrate too deeply, but it was deep enough to make him slip into a vegetative state. Every Saturday, the weekday Darius and Steven used to go to the archery meet-ups, Darius instead visited his friend in the hospital, hoping he would one day come into his room to see him awake and well. It’s been one year since that day. [b]Relationships:[/b] N/A [/hider] For the love of god, if there's one thing I hate about joining an RP, it's creating a character. Took me two days of long contemplation to come up with this. And it's not even close to being fleshed out. Still, I hope it'll do.
