Basic Info


Setting notes and disclaimer:

Part of the "Charahub Exodus". Takes place in the same universe as "Verdict". I tried to write a spin-off story of that roleplay setting, concentrating on Dardariels shenanigans on Earth, but never got far with it.

Profile


Darell Candiatis

The amazing human fruitcake - sweet, lasts long, may contain alcohol.

  • Other names: D'Airell de Candia, Darell of Candia, Dardariel
  • Occupation: Freelancer
  • Species: Self-proclaimed human
  • Gender Male
  • Significant other - (Mary?)
  • Sexuality Reluctantly not asexual
  • Theme songs Bastille - Icarus || Voltaire - Feathery Wings
  • Physical description

    Darell is of medium height, with narrow shoulders and the faintest shadows of military strictness visible in the way he moves. His hair is shoulder-length - thick, dark and wavy in texture, often messy and sticking to his face, with a badly trimmed beard lining the man's jaw.

    His facial features, discounting the beard, are androgynous, bringing to mind the statues of ancient greece. The man's jawline is soft, and the curved bow-shaped lips add to the feminity of his face. His nose forms a straight line from base to tip, with very little rounding or curving. Darells' eyes are brown in color, surrounded by thick eyelashes, resting below a pair of softly curving brows. Underneath said eyes, however, there are dark shadows.

    His body is covered by a number of scars. There's one underneath his ribs from what he claims to have gained from an unfortunate accident involving a pitchfork, knife marks along his back from an attempted mugging and alleged bear's clawmarks along his arms, as well burn scars on the man's legs.

    (Two symmetrical scars on his shoulderblades?)

    The most visible injury is the lack of small- and ringfinger on Darells' left hand, allegedly bitten off whilst he was fighting off the bear that gave him the clawmarks.

    (Description of clothes is under the "More" tab)

  • Back Story

    Says he is a christian from Candia. Says he's been a soldier. Says he's a vagabond and a pilgrim, traveling without a home looking for God. Many who meet the odd foreign man presume him to be a deserter due to his military demeanor.

  • Ongoing story

    Earth, France, province of Gevaudan 1768. Found mauled on the side of a road and after that there's ???????? but definitely contains him facing off the Beast of Gevaudan and running off with a nun for six decades of happiness.

  • Likes Sunlight, classical philosophy, honey and sweets. Being drunk.
  • Dislikes Lust, the sensation of having a physical body. Hangovers. Being drunk.
  • Likes but in a bittersweet way Angelological literature. Birds. Church architecture. "Goodness" motivated by religion. "Goodness" in general.
  • The Beast Adversary

    A constantly vicious berserker-demon who might or might not have ended up on Earth as a result of angelic meddling.

  • Mary Lambert La Lyon Love interest

    Patches up Dardariel after he's found mauled near the monastery.

  • Pierre Gagne Friend

    Elderly beekeeper who becomes the most stable employer to Darell, giving him shelter in exchange of work after the mans' wounds have healed.


  • Kind of clothing?

    Dull red overcoat. Simple leather shoes, caked in dirt, with knee-high white stockings and baggy dull red pants. He wears a wide-brimmed hat with the feathers of jay and other assorted wild birds affixed to the brim. The overall look is of one who decided to wear his sunday suit all week long. TL:DR: Something like this but more worn out.

  • Allergies?

    Milk.

  • Favorite animal?

    Seems fond of all birds.

  • What element would they be?

    Air

  • Alignment?

    Chaotic Good that wants to be Lawful

  • Deadly sin that best represents them?

    Wrath

  • Socioeconomic level?

    Peasant class

  • Hobbies?

    Teaches reading and writing to peasant kids, if they show interest. Helps out with a bee-keeper's place. Watches birds. Hunts.

  • Regrets?

    Yes

  • Favorite foods?

    Fruit jam, honey, sweet pastries, wild strawberries, candied apples.

  • How do they feel about love?

    Considers it a divine feeling, but an excrciatingly painful one. A gift and a curse.

  • Home town?

    Allegedly Candia

  • Where they live now?

    Commune of La Canourgue, Gevaudan

  • Makes a living by?

    Anything handed out by locals. Freelance farmwork and hunting, with a side of beekeeping.

  • Fears or phobias?

    Gets the shivers when seeing things withered away by age. Lowkey afraid of goats because they look "infernal".

  • Race, ethnicity and nationality?

    Self-proclaimed: Caucasian, mediterranean, candian (candia-italian)

  • Personal problems?

    Can never go home again. Even decades after leaving still desperately misses it...

  • What or who inspired you to create them?

    A burning desire to write about Dardariel in his later years...

  • When did you create this character?

    28.02.2016, when I created the document for "Darells" story OR 26. 04. 2014 when I wrote "Defenselesness and blue" thus giving his past-version a clear name and presence.

  • What is something other people assume about your character?

    That he's a drunkard and a liar. And strange. Darn good worker though.

  • Do they like the name they were given?

    Yes, he believes to have been born with it and thinks it has a nice ring. Feels that it's a shame that it stands out too much to be used but even when choosing aliases the man tries to still emulate the sound or feel of his original moniker.

  • Addictions?

    Strong alcohol. Sometimes breaks and gets really drunk on anything that he can get his hands on

  • Languages spoken

    Angelic (enochian), latin, old-hebrew, medieval italian, french, some greek, a couple of phrases of spanish, demonic, shakespearian english, persian and chinese.

  • Siblings?

    Says he has "a lot" back at home.

  • Belief in an afterlife?

    He believes in Heaven and Hell.

  • How much do they value money?

    He understands the love for money, but looks down on those who do. Keeps enough for basic necessities and even then is willing to part with it if someone else needs it more.

  • Anyone they really hate?

    The Beast. Some higher powers are also not untainted by his bitterness.

  • If they could have one thing in the world?

    Wings. He wants his wings and innocence.

  • Would they dare kill someone?

    Yes

  • Which legendary/mythical figure (either real or in-universe) do they most evoke?

    Once upon a time that question had a very straightforward answer. It's changed since then, though. Nowadays evokes more the imagery related to The Wandering Jew than of what he once was.
