Description: Slight, dapper, and unobtrusive. Darcy's mien isn't much different from their mask; thinner, perhaps, with longer fingers and pale decorative marks that their Keeper preferred. Darcy is almost always found in men's formal clothes, and their styles - and modes of speech - are usually quite out of date. 
Background: Two things are known about Darcy - they're British, and they're extremely time-jumped. While Darcy does not talk much about their past, from their clothes and speech most changelings assume somewhere between 1880-1920. Regardless, they seem to be adapting quite well to the modern era and its technology. They are relatively new to Corpus Christi, having arrived in the freehold during the most recent Spring. Although nothing has been said out loud, hints have been dropped that they were unimpressed with the freehold's crowning ceremony, and may well be planning to do something about that in the future. Darcy owns a rentable event venue, which - in addition to providing income - has showers in the staff bathrooms, a fully-stocked kitchen, and a room containing an array of clothing in various sizes and several inflatable air mattresses - and Darcy, of course, always makes sure there's at least some space available for unexpected guests. 
Personality: It would be easy to hate Darcy's arrogance if they weren't so well-mannered and reserved about it. Their upbringing was almost certainly upper-class and included a strict idea of proper behavior; their time in Arcadia, as a chatelaine to a Fae master, taught them to be nigh-invisible and inaudible when needed, and to keep their emotions off their face. They've relaxed their standards somewhat since escaping, but it has left them with a sense of discretion: even if they are quietly passing judgment on others, they are civil enough to keep it to themself. 
Other than that, they are steadfast and loyal, quietly working to improve the freehold in whatever ways are needed. As an example, they have taken to strolling along the beach at least once a week, if not more - a pleasant way to get one's exercise, and it means someone is keeping an eye out for recently-escaped changelings - who are as likely, in Corpus Christi, to emerge in the sea as on the land. 
They do have a strong sense of gallantry, though it rarely has a chance to come into play. 
Darcy is genderfluid and delights in being asked what gender they are, as it changes day to day. Their choice in attire, however, does not - man or woman, Darcy enjoys their suits.
