Biography

Darius is the son of a British-Persian father and a Japanese mother, he split his time between London and Chiba depending on which set of relatives he was living with while his parents worked their high-echelon Corp jobs. His parents would occasionally visit him to examine his grades over at the Corp programming school and reward him richly for his high marks.

When he turned 17, his parents disappeared completely, while on assignment in Night City during the Fourth Corporate War. In the aftermath of the war, he signed up with Arasaka in Japan and worked his way up the ranks, hoping to discover what happened to them. Over the years, he's built up a fantasy of his parents as heroic Arasaka loyalists who performed remarkable feats. He considers Michiko Sanderson, as a traitor to the Arasaka family, who was responsible for their disappearance.

Darius found some evidence indicating that his parents survived the war. He volunteered to for an infiltration assignment in Night City. He hoped to infiltrate Danger Gal HQ, alongside Nymph and a crew of shroomers, to uncover more information about his parents.
