His build is rather broad ads muscular, with some fat on his bones. Despite this, he manages to fit into a Mindy power armor without much of a hitch. His eyes are a deep hazel and amber, creating an almost caramel blend as a result, and his eyebrows are opposite colors - the left black and the right white though both retain an egg-like shape to them. His head is slightly oval in shape with a flat chin. His nose is moderately sized. Unusually, his hair is two colors, with the sides being white and the center being raven in color. The sides flare up like wings over his ears and back, while his bangs are cut just above his eyebrows in messy locks. On the back, it fans out almost like a tail. ===== Personality ===== It was Darwin's hardheadedness that pushed him into and through his schooling back on Yamatai, wherein he would seek out answers when possible or push his head through where there were none - but it was his curiosity that turned him down that route in the first place. He's a notorious wanderer, always willing to get to the bottom of whatever it is that may have captured his fancy. Socially, he is quite softhearted, betraying his thick skull, leaving him fumbling for words whenever he screws up and recognizes that he's hurt somebody.

When a portal was discovered at the bottom of an ancient temple in the Star Prefecture of [[https://stararmy.com/wiki/doku.php?id=planet:yamatai|Planet Yamatai ]], Darwin had feared the prospect of never going home and being trapped in a parallel universe. His decision was to create a second Darwin and leave him as an anchor to this universe. one to take his place, with a request to wipe the copy's memory of any experiences on the Kaiyo II to ensure he would not dwell on a past that should not have been.
