"Well, Mason, guess you live up to your family name.
Or down to it--wrecked up half of Mars in the process.
Yeah, but you got the job done.
We all did Frank."
―- Frank Winters and Darius Mason, after the Plague's defeat[src]

Biography[]

Battle of the Terraformer[]

Darius is one of the combat engineers for the Red Faction and is part of the assault team lead by Frank Winters to take back the Terraformer that keeps the atmosphere stable on Mars from Adam Hale and his Cultists who are planning to destroy it. The assault ends in a failure and results in the Terraformer's destruction which forces the colonists to move underground and make new colonies in the old mines. Feeling responsible for the Terraformer's destruction, Darius leaves the Red Faction and moves to Bastion to start doing mercenary work and mining jobs.

Plague Armageddon[]

In 2175, five years after the Terraformer's destruction, Darius accepts a mining job at Bradbury Canyon where he is tricked into removing a seal in an underground temple which releases aliens hibernating underneath Mars. Hale appears with Cultists and thanks Darius for doing the job for them and leaves him to die but not before mocking him saying that he will be remembered in their archives.

During the outbreak, which almost destroys all life on the planet, he fights through a horde of hostile aliens to make his way through the underground cave system. Darius brings an end to the horrors of the outbreak by battling the The Queen and repairing the Terraformer, which kills the aliens. Those aliens that aren't killed by the purified man-made atmosphere retreat deep underground.

Darius is aided by his A.I S.A.M, who is created by Samanya.
