First memory: Waking up in a cell in a lab. Having a few simple tests to check cognition and ability to comprehend words.

Current location: University Campus Grounds

Religion: None.
Occupation: Teacher Assistant
Finances: Darrkiel only has his money that he earns as a Classroom Assistant to support himself and is thankful for the bits he can also do to help himself be supported there.
Family
For obvious reasons, Darrkiel is not in contact with biological family. Nor would he see it as too important, should he be given the chance to. However, there are others at the facility that created him that he sees almost as siblings.
Favorites
Color: I Mean There's a few, Becky. (He actually really likes Autuminal shades)
Least favorite color: Highly manufactored, sterilised whites.
Music: Easily Listening Tracks, more Musical Theater-Esque pieces and songs with slow relaxing rhythms.
Food: Darrkiel prefers eating foods that are very "soft" to make it easier for him to eat it with a beak. His favorite he's had so far is a certain pepper-sauce chicken he's recently had during a quiz night!
Literature: Mostly he reads things for studying and throws himself way, way too much into his work. However, when he is reading to relax, Darrkiel loves thrillers and detective novels, as well as some really cheesy romance stories.
Form of entertainment: As an introvert, Darrkiel enjoys books, music and personally improving himself. However, he's still a very sociable creature, both literally and figuritively and overthinks when he's alone. Thus, he also loves spending time, talking to others.
Mode of transportation: Darrkiel values his own ability to fly and takes a lot of his sense of identity from it, something he came to realize when he was injured and unable to fly.
Most prized possession: Whilst the gifts Darrkiel has held are all precious, there are three 'possessions' that stick out to him the most. The first being the appartment he was given, for just how much independence and respect it represented to him. The second was an enchanted necklace that Emmy gave him, to give him secutiy and peace of mind. The final, Grinthey's fidget cube, as a first ever birthday gift, and a sign that, he'd 'made it' as being accepted as a person by the people at the University.

Smokes: No, would be unlikely to.
Drinks: Yes, socially and with a super high matabolism thanks to his biology.
Other drugs: No, but would be highly world curious if offered and try them.
