Darius was born on Aerelon to a prominent member of the local government. Darius’ father, Galen Darius, was a veteran of the Cylon War, serving as a marine sergeant on board the Colombia. He escaped the ship’s destruction in a life-pod and was awarded the Colonial Star for Valour in rescuing two other crew members. He later went into politics on Aerelon, where he has served as a Consul ever since.

Darius was educated to the highest standard money could buy; unfortunately, his desire to abscond meant that much of this money was wasted and he left his school days with only a sub-standard education. His life seemed destined for obscurity.

A chance meeting between Darius’ father and an old war buddy, Philip Alexis, changed Darius’ life. Eager to redirect his son’s chaotic energy, Galen arranged for Darius to work at Alexis’ security firm, Secura. It was there that Darius found his calling. He was recruited into Colonial Intelligence a few years later and posted to Fleet Operations. Within five years, he was transferred from Intelligence to general military service aboard the Myriad, with the rank of Major.
