Overview

Born a Red in the mines of Mars, Darrow was transformed into a Gold to infiltrate and destroy the Society from within. He becomes the legendary Reaper, a symbol of revolution and hope for the lowColors.

Background

Darrow grew up as a Helldiver in Lykos, a mining colony deep beneath Mars's surface. After the execution of his wife Eo for singing a forbidden song, Darrow was recruited by the Sons of Ares and surgically transformed into a Gold. He was sent to the Institute, where he conquered House Mars and began his path to bringing down the Society.

Personality

Darrow is fiercely loyal, driven by love and vengeance in equal measure. He possesses a tactical brilliance that surprises even Golds born to war. Though he can be ruthless when necessary, he struggles with the violence his revolution demands and the cost it exacts on those he loves.
