## Personality

Darrz is an extroverted, sensitive, and intuitive person. He possesses a heightened sense of emotional empathy for others, no matter their species. Something that is discouraged in Irken culture. This often makes him the subject of alienation by his peers.
He is also quite protective toward his loved ones, and would sacrifice himself if it meant keeping them safe. Darrz also tries to always have good intentions behind his motives, and hates to see others helpless or suffering. As a result, he is very charitable and will try to help someone he sees in need. He also seems to dislike unneeded violence and calls himself a pacifist. Although he is not above fighting in self-defense. If he needs to defend himself he will try his best to inflict as little damage as possible and try to end any conflict quickly. He does not have the heart to kill someone, but might if it was the only way to protect others from harm. He would still feel guilty afterward.

Although Darrz' good intentions can sometimes get out of hand, creating more harm than good. It seems Darrz' biggest flaw is that he cares too much about keeping other people safe, no matter the cost. This is shown in how Darrz tends to sometimes think he knows what's best for others, and will even do immoral things(cheating, lying, etc) if it means "helping" those he cares about. It can even lead to him being a sort of a hypocrite, breaking his own self-proclaimed morals if it means doing the right thing. His desire to protect everyone from harm can also lead to him being overprotective and at times overbearing. At worst his determination to keep everyone happy and safe leads to him being quite manipulative, similar to an overprotective mother becoming too involved with their children's personal lives out of an obsession to shield them from harm.

Darrz will often put far too much pressure on himself to be productive and sometimes works too hard. He also has trouble giving himself a break, and will only do something fun if there's something productive that will come out of it. Despite this, Darrz still possesses a love of fun and silly things and has a dislike toward things he finds too boring. He also has trouble doing things if they're too boring. Sometimes this silliness can get in the way of his work.

Darrz appears to struggle with low self-esteem causing him to often depend on others for advice and sometimes second-guess himself. At worst, this causes him to idolize others or even envy them, measuring himself based on "how good he is compared to someone else he admires". To add to this, he sometimes has a bad habit of not trusting himself or his own opinions, and would rather have someone else decide things for him. This makes him quite impressionable and prone to asking his friends for advice they know nothing about. He is also prone to underestimating himself and even making himself look dumb out of a belief that he "isn't the smart one of the group." Despite this, when not suffering from his self-esteem issues, Darrz tries to listen to his gut and make decisions based on his past experiences. He also seems to be quite intelligent despite how much he calls himself an airhead.

He also tends to be a detailed perfectionist, often taking ages to complete a goal. His perfectionism causes him to sometimes procrastinate so he can wait for the "perfect time" to do something. Darrz also has a tendency to put immense pressure on himself and will berate himself for the smallest of mistakes. At worst, this can veer into tunnel vision or cause him to restart a goal after making a simple error.

Darrz also seems to be quite gullible and naive and will try to see the good in others. This often causes him to be the victim of manipulation, or have people take advantage of him. Darrz also seems to have trouble asserting himself. Despite this Darrz has a bad temper if he is pushed to the limit. This is mostly because of his lack of knowledge of how to control his anger, as a result he usually holds in his anger until it explodes.

He also seems to have a fear of rejection and slight abandonment issues, and will sometimes try too hard to fit in with others. This causes him to sometimes get into his friend's interests so they'll like him more. He also seems to have a fear of not being useful enough for everyone. Darrz often also tends to hold in negative emotions and pretend "everything is fine", out of a fear of "pushing everyone away with his problems". At worst this causes him to be a people pleaser or even suppress any uncomfortable feelings he has to the point of having a mental breakdown. His fear of rejection also adds to his people-pleasing, making it difficult at times for him to say no or stand up for himself.

Darrz is quite a cautious individual and seems to be suffering from symptoms of complex trauma and severe anxiety.
He has an intense hatred of the irken academy and tends to avoid anything that might remind him of it. Darrz has hinted that "a lot of terrible things happened to him at the academy", but he tries not to talk about it too much. These traumatic events seemed to have affected him so much that he tends to expect something bad to happen in the future. This causes him to sometimes prepare for the worst in environments he knows little about, veering into paranoia if he's panicked enough. Darrz also seems to be afraid of listening to certain songs that remind him of "bad memories". His cautious nature also causes him to hate being the center of attention, and prefers to "lay low and go unnoticed". Darrz also seems to run away from the past and prefers not to think about the bad things that happened to him. His careful nature also causes him to sometimes be wary about trying new things, and prefers to do things "the old way". He can be quite secretive as well. He seems to be quite observant of his environment and can catch things at the corner of his eye. It is hinted this was a trait he picked up from having to "scan for threats back in the academy." Ironically he can be blind to what's right in front of him.

Darrz values freedom among all else, and detests rules. To the annoyance of his superiors, this causes him to be quite informal. He believes everyone should be allowed to do what they want, as long as they don't hurt anyone. However, he will try to follow rules if it means avoiding conflict.

## Trivia Of Doom
