Art by me!Character Theme:Fantastic PaceDarryn Zendarium is a sallow-faced man with a slight build. His eyes are a striking shade of red. He wears his jet-black hair in an unfortunate-looking mushroom cut- he thinks it looks good on him.
Darryn's green suit is his most treasured possession. It wasn't
particularly expensive, but it's by far the most presentable outfit he owns. If you get it dirty, Darryn will probably yell at you.
Personality:Darryn is narcissistic and entitled. He has a nasty persecution complex, and tends to blame anything that goes wrong in his life on other people. He believes society has unjustly cast him aside, and he works tirelessly to prove himself to the world.
Despite his cynicism, Darryn is actually very naive. It's incredibly easy to take advantage of the man- all you need to do is tell him what he wants to hear.
Relationships:Darryn's family moved out of Jadenshine a few years ago, leaving him in charge of the family home- an ancient, decrepit building that's slowly falling apart due to neglect. Darryn has done the bare minimum to keep it standing, and calling it a "death trap" would be an understatement.
Magic/Abilities:Darryn has a plethora of knowledge regarding the arts- painting, poetry, theatre, etc. He's completely devoid of talant, however, and the best artwork he's ever produced barely passes as "mediocre".
Darryn is surprisingly strong for a scrawny guy who doesn't excercise a whole lot...
History:Darryn is a below-average man with above-average aspirations. First he wanted to be a mage, but his application to Kia's Garden was rejected due to a lack of talent. Then he tried the arts, but his mediocre paintings weren't good enough to be displayed in galleries, and his abysmal poetry was scorned by everybody he showed it to. He constantly blamed others for these failures, claiming they simply couldn't comprehend a lofty genius such as himself.
Adverse to hard work and with no money to fall back on when his countless ventures in the arts inevitably failed, the man struggled to make ends meet. While scrounging through his family's attic in hopes of finding something he could sell, Darryn discovered what seemed to be the biggest injustice he'd
ever faced...
Surrounded by clutter and covered in dust were
centuries-old legal documents showing that
his family- the Zendariums- used to be the ruling family of Jadenshine.
Needless to say, Darryn was livid. The "misfortune" he'd faced in life suddenly made sense- it was all a plot to keep him from rising to power! It had to be the Silinrul's fault, they wanted to deny him his divine right to rule! In his self-rightious fury, the man came to a decision- he was going to get into politics and overthrow the Silinruls, taking back his rightful place on the throne.
Yeah. Let's see how that works out for him.
