Darius is a male mutant anthropomorphic dromedary.
Description[]
Darius was originally a supervising administrator of the Drove of the Database-Compiling Dromedaries. In charge of Research Laboratory 6, where the Drove studied members of the various First Horde splinter-groups made up of strangely-coloured talking animals, he became obsessed with investigating the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids. Following the disastrous consequence of his capture of Pessimist-242 (which caused the escape of every other prisoner interned in Research Lab 6), Darius fell from grace, being replaced by Lila as head of his department of the Drove. Stranded in the multiverse, he became increasingly unhinged and villainous, trying again and again to get revenge on the Cupids for ruining his career, and eventually teamed up with the even more malevolent D123-Blackheart, of the Drove of the Demesmaekerite-Dyed Discordias.
Behind the scenes[]
Darius first appeared in 2019 in the short story Pessimist and the Dromedaries and became a recurring antagonist of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids series.
