Occupation: Night World assasign, and jack of all trades. He helps Melesifant run their vineyard in the mountains, and their blackmarket slave trade.
Home: He was born in the Celtic Isles... again not sure of much.
Family: Soulmate Melesifant Redfern
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 190ish
Appearance: His eyes are the gree of spring time oak leaves and seek to spark with lightening at times. he is tall an broad with tasteful muscles. He currently wears his hair long and typically pulled back. He has a strong jawline, slight cleft in his chin, and a smile that can leave you scared and breathless in good or bad ways.In his left hear he wears a vampire fang earring, and has a 3" round scar under his left shoulder. Wearing mostly black, and almost always leather jacket and boots he is dark and mysterious with his celtic accent.
Personality: He is currently remembering himself. For 400 years he has lived in a constant state of mental tourment, haunted by his past he was either haunted, or hallucinating. When he happened upon Melesifant all that ended and he became the sleek and dangerous vampire he was before. He is warm and loving with Melesifant only, and only behind closed doors. In public he is charming but distant and calculating. He still stares into space when bored, or deep in thought but unlike before Melesifant his mad hatter grin is absent. He will charm the best of them with his alluring looks, and elegant accent and speech, but he will cut out your throat without a second thought if he thinks he will profit from it.
History: He is trying to learn about his past before October 31st 1608 but can't. That days events had defined and tourmented him for nearly 400 years. On that night he found his wife Astrid sleeping with Leo Redfern, when he returned to his castle. Lost in rage he grabbed Leo off of Astrid and pinned him to the floor riping out his throat. Astrid, not of good temper herself, pulled a wooden stake as long as her forearm outof her dresser and plunged into Darien's back trying to save Leo. The stake went under his should and clean through missing anything vital. Leaving leo to continue to bleed he dislocated his right shoulder to pull out the stake and plunged it into Astrid's heart and watched the light fade from her silver eyes. Weeping her kissed her head and laid her carefully on the bed and removed the stake. He walked over to Leo's still writhing body and while the vamp's eyes widened in outrage pulled out Leo's Left fang, then staked him through the heart as well. No one knows how he survived the wood poisioning his system but he thinks he remembers a witch friend helping him, though that man is long dead. He was not right from then on, seeing Astrid and hearing her taunt him and pain shoot through his scar, he stared into space and always had a crazed look. Till he picked a fight with a Redfern girl who had it out for him from the blood feud over his earring. When skin touched skin the two knew they were soulmates and they have been together since and he sane since.
