Full Name: Darron Leo Alcroft
Age: 25
Civilian or Special: Civilian
Brief Power Description (if applicable): N/A
Brief Description of Character:
Despite not being an identical twin to Ryan, Darron does possess some physical resemblance to his younger brother. Both of them have short blonde hair and a pair of dark brown eyes. However, unlike Ryan, who prefers to shave his facial hair completely, Darron instead tries to keep any growth to a thin layer of stubble which coats his jaw. Darron, as well as being older, is also three inches taller than his brother, standing nearly two metres tall (6'5"/195cm).
While still possessing the fiery temper that got him into so much trouble in younger life, Darron has matured to the point where he is far more able to control it, mostly for the sake of his career, which has left him a dedicated, calm and mostly friendly individual who is somewhat remorseful about how he treated Ryan during his childhood.
Brief Description of History:
Born in 1983, the year after his parents' marriage, Darron was, even at an early age, academically gifted. By the time he started school at the age of four, he was substantially ahead of his classmates in most academic subjects, especially the basic literacy and math lessons his teacher conducted.
Despite being an intelligent child, there was one psychological aspect that constantly let Darron down over the years: his short temper. Because he had become so used to being at the top of the pile, he despised the times when people would, in his eyes, try to challenge his authority or rival him in any way. Because of this, Darron often found himself getting into fights both in and out of school.
When the 90s rolled around, Darron encountered a new rival in the form of his younger brother, Ryan. At first, the conflicts were little more than Darron overpowering his brother to steal a toy from the infant's grasp but, as Ryan got older, the conflicts became more and more violent, often resulting in Ryan crying to one of his parents, which inevitably got Darron in even more trouble.
The cycle of Darron losing his temper and getting into trouble for it reached its peak when he was fourteen, where he was suspended from high school for two weeks. During his time away from school, Darron realised it was time for a change. Upon his return, he threw himself into his academic work and, over the course of the next nine years, after obtaining excellent results in high school, college and university, he started a career with a large legal firm.
