Hair: Long black oily hair. Ragged and greasy.

Appearance

Usual Garments/Armor: Normal attire for one living in a Human province. The real difference is not in his clothes, but his face. Pale skin, dead look of sorrow about his eyes, and oily greased up hair that flops limp to his chin and neck. He often wallows around in noble/upperclass attire, but doesn't keep the clothes themselves very well kept.

Other: Often carries a knife with him due to extreme paranoia, and tends to also carry poisons with him for the very same reason. He carries a very small bag of coins on his belt, tied very tightly with a small length of rope.

Skills/Abilities

From a life of alchemy research and study, Darius has memorized recipes for many different mixtures that can inflict great physical harm on those he wishes to hurt. From years as a Doctor, Darius has memorized the locations of vital areas or weaknesses in the major Horde and Alliance races, and fights with the utmost precision in combat, should he need to defend himself.

Personality

He is a calm quiet man, he ponders every action he makes, how his choices may affect him, and what his benefits are. Some might even say he's too careful at times. Darius is a thinker, he has many different philosophies on life and unique personal views on just about everything, usually more dark, realistic, and twisted than most. He has a corrupt, distorted mind, like many forsaken in the Horde, but at the same time, he can be surprisingly reasonable. One might say he's simply misunderstood, while others may say his inner frustration is volatile and unstable.

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral (on the brink of chaotic evil, this would depend on his IC interaction once in the game and RPing.)

History

Darius was like any other working man in the kingdom of Lordaeron in his "living" days. He was an avid follower of the light, and had a loving family that consisted of his wife Maya, and two children by the names of Robert and Anna. Darius was a Doctor and Alchemist, he would go into Stratholme every day and sell his homemade medicines and potions, then at night, make his travel home, making a modest living. On occasion, he would also make house calls and have private appointments for those who sought his professional diagnosis.

But then, misfortune struck, and Lordaeron fell under siege to the scourge. It all seemed to happen at the blink of an eye. Fire, smoke, rot, death, darkness...all around Darius as he ran from his burning home, his family undead. For a year he drifted along the Eastern Kingdoms, looking for a place to rest and call home, his mind and grasp on reality steadily slipping as he fell in to deep depression. Finally making his home in Stormwind, he's remained ever since...traumatized. Very few know Doctor Hawking personally these days, and very seldomly does he work with clients.

These days, Darius keeps to himself, and though active and mobile as of late, still very secluded. He searches for his calling and purpose in life, lost without the support and tender love of his family. This journey often brings him to Goblin towns, where to attempts to meet people of all different employments and cultures. However, his social skills have waned dramatically since that faithful night where he lost everything, and he often just waits and watches, sometimes even follows people. Most of his time is now spent at various bars and inns, drinking his troubles away and drowning his depression in liquor, attempting to get his life back on track and making a strong effort to prevent himself from "going insane" as he says.
