Darius was born the grand child of Manuel Garcia Dontez, the King of the gypsies that roamed the hills between Spain and France. He was the most beloved of all of Manuel's grandchildren, because of his boldness and confidence. This nurtured jealousy in the hearts of his cousins and they sold him into service of a pirate crew as a cabin boy.

It was aboard the ship where Darius learned to weld a sword, and his skill quickly became legend to any sailor in the Mediterranean. He rose to become the captain of his own ship and lead a fairly prosperous pirate life, until the day he saved the king from asasination. He lost his ship and crew in the process, but was rewarded by the king and given a position has one of his musketeers.
