Celebrity Claim: Matt Lanter
Looks:: Darius has a strong face but gentle at the same time, he has brown hair, with blue eyes that stand out, a regular looking nose and lips that don’t look soft but they are. He has broad shoulders, muscular chest, and a strong pair of legs that has endurance in them for years. He likes to wear pants and a shirt, but when he’s working in the forge, you can see him wearing a tank top and a pair of shorts.
Personality:: Darius is a nice guy, he may look like a mean guy but is like a teddy bear, he can help you with just about everything that has to do with building. He is easy to talk to and if you want to learn how to make your weapon or fix it, he’ll give you step by step on how to do it, it may not be as great work as his own, but he swears it’ll get you by. Darius also has a very good sense of humor, he can take jokes about himself and also burn you pretty darn good.
He also has a mean side to him, you really don’t want to make him mad. Darius has a super bad temper, but he went through anger management, but that still doesn’t matter sometimes. He can just go storming around, throwing stuff off the shelf or just punch something that will cause a hole in it. Just let him be for a few minutes and he’ll come around. One thing that he isn’t used to is getting sad about something, it takes a while for him to break, but if a death of someone close to him, that’s when you can see him break down pretty bad. Whenever he is sad, he won’t show it because his step-dad always taught him to be stronger than that, no wimps aloud.

History:: Rose and Basil Vanderveer were married at a young age of 19 and had Crystal, Blossom, Fallon and James before they were 24 years old. The two were on a vacation to celebrate their six year wedding anniversary in Hawaii. While visiting one of volcano’s on an island, is when Hephaestus found her. He couldn’t believe how beautiful Rose was, and he wanted her for himself for a night. After a day of snorkeling, parasailing, and laying at the beach, Rose and Basil went back into their motel room to rest for a while before going out to dinner. As they went out, Hephaestus watched them and waited for his opportunity to lure Basil away. As they walked along the beach at night, Basil went up to the bathroom at one of the restaurants as Rose waited for him by the waves, Hephaestus blew him with sleeping dust and transfigured his form to disguise himself as Basil. Walking down back to the beach, Rose smiled at him and resumed their night, once they went back to the hotel room, that’s when Hephaestus made his move. That next morning, Rose laid beside Hephaestus thinking it’s her husband till a door came crashing and in comes her true husband, screaming, Rose looked at Basil and then at the man who transformed back into Hephaestus. He presented himself and said that she was to conceive a baby boy and to name him Orion, then leaving the room in that next moment. Rose was mortified as so was Basil, he sat there holding her till she stopped crying.
Once Darius was born, Rose ignored the sense that his name was to be Orion and made that his middle name and Darius his first name. Once the name became official, she knew that she made a good decision because she received a bouquet of flowers from Hephaestus, she did not care about the father of the child at all, but she loved the child all the same and did not think he was the object of a rape. When Darius became five years old, Basil and Rose knew that he was special because of his building and fixing skills that he adapted at an early age. Darius would run around and pretend he was a mechanic and that he could fix anything, which he really could. He also loved to play with this siblings, even though his parents never told them about his true father. Along came Ruby, Damon, Adonis, and Khali, and then he had more children to play with. Having nine children took a tool on Rose and Basil towards their house, so they sold the house and moved out towards the country and bought a five acre land in South Dakota. All through high school, Darius exceeded and got high honors in mechanics and other subjects, they called him Dare because everyone would dare him into something and he could fulfill it, no matter what he did.
Once he was out of school, he wanted to rest at home for two years before entering into the army for mechanics and building airplanes, but when he was riding his quad out on the property, a monster came and attacked him. He was in bad shape when Fallon found him laying on the ground, so he took him to the house. Once he regained consciousness, he told his mother and father what had happened out in the fields, knowing they couldn’t keep the secret about his true father anymore, they called a family meeting. With everyone in the room, they told the story about Hawaii and what had happened to Rose, everyone was in a state of shock. Darius couldn’t believe it, but somewhere deep in his gut, he always knew that he didn’t fit in with his family, but he didn’t care, he still loved them. So he gathered his things and his mother with his Step-Dad, they drove him to Camp Half Blood. When they dropped him off, Hephaestus came to him and told him that it was true, that he was his father.
