He is a human-deimos half breed and spent some of his infant years living among Humans. He was once the leader of the of the Orcon tribe, a title he took by force by killing Densimo in combat. Due to his actions to prevent the destruction of the Deimos, he gained the title "King Of The Deimos" (魔族の王 Mazoku no ō).

He is the lead protagonist of Darc's Story, one of the games main story lines. He is considered one of the Heroes of the world and is also responsible for helping to bring peace among the Human and Deimos races.

He is playable in Arc The Lad: End of Darkness as a Character Card, but does not appear in the main story along with the majority of the other Twilight of the Spirits main characters.

Appearance[]

Darc is a human-deimos half breed and shares the physical characteristics of both. He has brown long brown hair that goes to his shoulders and red eyes. He also had two horns that stick out of his head and half of his face is covered in scales.

Most of the entire left side of his body is human, excluding his shoulder that has scales and a single horn growing out of it, but the right side of his body, namely the upper half has more Deimos characteristics. Including scales that go up the side of his torso, a claw for a hand, and horns that cover his elbow. He was born with wings, but they were ripped off at the end of his story's Chapter One.

Due to the fact that he is not entirely human he doesn't wear normal clothing and instead has armor over his chest and left arm, and a robe over his waist. He also has brown sandals and a bracelet that he wears on his right wrist.

Personality & Traits[]

Initially, Darc believes he can save the Deimos with peaceful intentions and looks at life with a sort of childlike naivety. He shows care to others and gives them the benefit of the doubt including the Orcon who once called him a "wannabe Deimos." Even to Geedo, his adoptive guardian who tortured him for years, he shows uncharacteristic loyalty, doing her errands and refusing to stand up for himself.

After an ambush by Densimo and Geedo, he accepts that Deimos only listen to strength and the only way to save them is through force. With this new mentality, Darc becomes the cold and sometimes brutal leader of the Orcon tribe. He makes emotionless comments about how he killed Densimo to Delma, which leads to her actively plotting to kill him.
