- Description: From first glance, any near-human could easily agree that Darren looks par for the course. Despite his rather tall height and larger frame, Darren is near-human. On the surface. However, with the addition of Vong technology, Sith Alchemy and the like, Darren can shapeshift his physical appearance to be of any Near-human species. This can be changing anything from his hair color, skin tone, facial features, even his fingerprints should he have the knowledge of what a person's fingerprint would be. Darren also has the added utility of all the biots that are placed within his body such as Steng's Talons that allow bone protrusions to extend from his body, and act as weapons, claws, or talons as the name would suggest. They can also be used defensively much like a very limited version of armor. Or how Darren's left hand can split into a series of "fingers" or "Tenticals." Allowing him to use them as wrapping tools, spear like appendages, or even inject someone with the Toxins related to an Amphistaff or a Tsaisi.

- Distinctions:
- Lazarus Sin: As his self, the embodiment of many aspects of Corruption through various Dark Sided means, Darren stands well over the average height of your typical human. In fact, he stands over the average height of the Null Species. Massive stature and frame. Secondly with the clearly visible scale or chitin like armor upon the entirety of his form. Done through various processes of Yuuzhan Vong Biots being grafted into his very being, Alchemy to completely alter the structure of his form, as well as bind everything together. The second most notable addition is a few sets of wings. Massive wings that can provide flight to him, be used as "limbs" such as a shield, or even used offensively to batter foes. Sporting an armored tail as well, it can be used for balance, or likewise as a weapon of opportunity. Unique to this as well, is the capability for Darren's Left arm to split open into various "tentacles" that can act as individual arms, or otherwise be "fingers" with a dramatically increased range in which they can operate. While his Right hand is altered with a Shapers hand. Namely being able to install new biots into himself, or others. Following up with various ways to inject enemies, foes, slaves, or otherwise with various Venoms, Viruses, Poisons, or otherwise. Stemming from the typical Amphistaff Venom, or Vongspawn Virus, to Sith Poisons, or even infect others with the Blackwing Plague itself.
- Echani: As with any being that can look quite... different within the galaxy, in order for him to blend into his surroundings, Darren has the usage of the Masquers as well as a Cloak of Nuun. Both of which can allow Darren to change his physical appearance to be that of what he has been seen for many years now. A rather tall Echani Force Master. It can keep appearances up and provide him with the capacity to blend into his surroundings much more easily than that of his Lazarus Sin form. While Darren can retain some form of his abilities from his Sinful form, such as splitting his arm open, or utilizing the shaper hand, He can use mix and matched parts when he desires for the situation.

Strengths:
- Black Clover: As with any being that augments themselves, Namely in the dark side of the force, Darren is extremely attuned to the force. Namely in the Darker side. Allowing him a deep connection with the force. Secondly, Having his "main heart" or the heart that is typically housed in the chest between the lungs, be altered with a Force Crystal. Affording him a potential within the force to be staggeringly powerful.
- Apex Warrior: As with the tradition of the Echani, many are extremely fit, and are considered to have a "peak" physical conditioning. However, Darren exceeds that with the inclusion of his mixed blood. Namely the Atoan's known unique trait of having multiple hearts. This can afford Darren to have multiple hearts, all pumping blood throughout his system at unprecedented speeds, and rates. Allowing his body to naturally perform actions such as Sprinting, Swimming, physical activity, and the like, for much longer than any near-human should be capable of. The multitude of hearts pumping at such a pace, in combination with lungs to be able to provide enough oxygen to his body, extends the time before anaerobic processes are required. Providing him with inhuman levels of stamina and Agility. Only further increased by his physical strength.
- Hyper-Metabolism: Being able to rapidly produce energy, and required nutrients from food, or other sources, due to the speed at which the blood can also bring said nutrients throughout the body, is a necessity. Secondly to that, it is required so then the biots that are within the body can survive and not be rejected by his body.
- Flesh of a Demon: Yuuzhan Vong biots, Various Sith Magics/Alchemy, as well as being infected with the Blackwing Virus, having consumed the heart of a Jedi, Afford Darren to have inhuman physical duration. Namely being able to withstand strikes from energy based weaponry, such as blasters, and lightsabers. Another such, is being able to physically endure debilitating or even near fatal wounds, and continue to fight on. Including a fast regeneration healing factor.
- Culture Appropriation: Utilising various the physiology of a few species, and the Shaping performed by Biots, Darren has various weapons, and tools at his disposal. Namely Stengs Talons, Fighting claws, as well as Wings for which he can fly with. All biots have a use, and will be done so for his advantage.
- Achooo!: As having so many Yuuzhan Vong biots, and different skin grafts and the like, Darren is highly allergic to Pollen that comes from the Bafforr Trees upon the planet of Ithor, as well as stings from the a Sparkbee, as well as not being able to use Bacta due to an allergic reaction to the substance.
- The Light Burns: As a being heavily augmented and perverse individual by the Dark Side of the Force, he is highly susceptible to the Light side of the force. Namely abilities such as Force Light, or even Wall of Light can cause extreme amounts of damage to him, or outright kill, or remove his force sensitive nature.
- Suppression: As with any Force sensitive being, Force suppression or items that limit the usage of the force are still useful against Darren. Limiting his usage in the force, or even outright preventing him from using it at all. Just as any other force user in the galaxy.
- Yep, Still Hurts: Yes, Darren is highly resistant to Lightsabers, and energy based weapons. However, that does not mean he cannot feel the kinetic impact of such weapons, as well as potentially being burned from the constant contact with a Lightsaber. Secondly, any other kind of weaponry against him can still be effective.
- Blood for the Blood God: Due to Darren's unique physiology, having multiple hearts, means that Darren's blood flow, and the speed it which it travels through his body is unprecedented. An inhuman physique able to rapidly send nutrients and vitamins to all parts of his body, means that should his skin break, or should Darren begin to lose blood due to an injury, the chance for him to die of blood loss is also off the charts. Where a near-human would have a simple cut, barely bleeding, Darren would have an excess of blood. Where a dangerous wound for a near-human would receive, could be a fatal one for Darren.
- Walking Biohazard: Darren has been afflicted with Viruses, Poisons, and even the infamous Blackwing contagion. Meaning that should someone come into contact with Darren's blood, be bitten, scratched, or the like, they can contract any, or all of these various hazards. Most often than not, Vongspawn, as well as the Blackwing Viruses are the easiest to contract, as well as the most deadly of the ones he could use. Namely due to Blackwings known fatality rate.
- Gluttony's Sin: As a being requiring so much nutrients, and vitamins, namely due to the additions of multiple hearts, an extremely high metabolism, as well as Vong Biots that also require energy, Darren is in constant need of food, or some kind of energy that can be given to him to be able to sustain this body. Where as a normal human could get away with something a little less than 2000 Calories a day, Darren requires nearly 10,000 calories at the very least. Just to sustain himself. If performing high activity actions, or in order to increase muscle mass and the like, Darren would need to nearly double his intake.
- You Ain't Hiding: As powerful as Darren is within the force, namely being altered via Sith alchemy, means that it is very difficult for him to hide himself within the force. While it can be done, it would require master level powers, or artifacts to hide him.
- Sin of the Force: Due to the nature of having two respective "Forms" or otherwise showing his real body to others, It greatly limits his ability to use armor or other conventional items such as speeders, ships, or the like. Requiring more space, or items to be built for the purpose to work with his physical form. Secondly, with a form as big as it is, with wings, paints a very large target for him. Making it very clear where people need to shoot or aim at.
- Diet: Omnivore, Cannot consume Sparkbee honey, nor use Bacta.
- Communication: Normal Languages of Near-human species.
- Technology level: Galactic Standard
- Religion/Beliefs: As a singular person, There is no religion or belief system.
- General behavior: As a singular person, the general behavior is that of the "host" Darren Shaw.
Darren Shaw. Born upon Eshan, was moved to Korriban as a child with his Mother and Father. A humble start for a monster that now lives. Living for years within the growing Empire of the Sith, becoming one of their troopers to hide the fact he was force sensitive, as well as then later, training to become a Sith Lord. Yet, he did not become one. Instead attempting to redeem himself to the Jedi, he failed to do so when becoming marked by a Sith Empress of Ashin Varanin. As well as being injected with treatments of Sith poisons. While at the time, they were very limited, in due time, they would consume him.
Cursed by the blood of this Sith Empress, Darren lost his family. In constant war, being cast out from the Jedi, and shunned by the Sith, Darren has never had a real home. With the aid of Spencer Jacobs, attempting to take back the throne of the Echani people, Darren wanted to be able to return to the Echani people. However, he never felt like that was his place. In fact, he learned that he would never find a "home" that some seek. Accepting this fate, Darren left. Traveling the galaxy to discover more of himself, the force, as well as cultures.
One such being, was a Disgraced Yuuzhan Vong Shaper. One who was so ambitious of becoming the next Supreme Overlord, that taking a powerful Force Sensitive, and Vongforming them, may have been the key. Creating a creature that was powerful enough to take on the Yuuzhan Vong on his own, while still being under the thumb of the Shaper. However, that would not be the case. After receiving these upgrades to his body, as painful as they may be, as transforming they were, Darren learned quickly of what was to become of him. Becoming a Slave to this Shaper.
While Darren did not have a home, he was not very fond of the idea of losing himself to this being. Playing a game of Cat and Mouse, Darren continued to allow the Shaper to upgrade his body with organ grafting, biots, and even offered to aid the shaper with the usage of Sith Alchemy. Namely providing himself a Crystal to become thrust into his heart. Strengthening him, as well as putting himself into a desirable location. When it came close to when the Shaper would be performing the rituals required to make Darren her slave, he took action. Killing the disgraced shaper. Going so far as to erase her name from the labratory in which she worked in. Taking it for himself, and using it to continue implanting his body with biot after biot.
After some time, being away from the galactic light for quite some time, Darren has returned to the galaxy. However, unbeknownst to all others around him, Darren is not as "human" as he may seem.
