Darkus/Misc.

Trivia

 * Darkus' designs especially his original human form, his third metamorphosis, and higher forms are heavily influenced by Diavolo and Risotto Nero from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Vento Aureo (Golden Wind).
 * His English voice actor, Ray Chase also voiced Bruno Bucciarati from the same franchise.
 * Darkus is partially based on Al Simmons aka Spawn from Spawn Comic Series. He also shares some similarities to Spawn such as:
 * Both are former humans who were soldiers in their lives.
 * They obtained god like power after their deaths. Although in Spawn's case his status is undead while Darkus was fully resurrected.
 * Both have similar skin complexion: tan/dark. The difference is Simmons is an African-American while Darkus is confirmed not to be African-American but an Asian although his true nationality/birthplace never confirmed. It's possible that Darkus came from either South Asia or Southeast Asia.
 * Both were controlled by evil entities before rebelling against them. Malebolgia for Spawn and Dark Entity for Darkus.
 * Darkus initially was intended as a dark lord known solely as Dark Emperor. As Dark Emperor his backstory is different but also bears few similarities to the current/canon backstory. His old backstory has him as a corrupt overlord who was driven into madness by a dark crystal (which is the original idea/name of Dark Entity's Shards) that turned him into a monster and had him destroyed his home planet before he was confronted by a giant of light who freed him from his corruption and offered him a chance to redeem himself.
 * His design as Dark Emperor bears striking resemblance to Emperor Palpatine (Darth Sidious) from Star Wars franchise.
 * Darkus' birthday is 7th of December.
 * His favorite foods are meat (mainly chicken and beef) and carbonated drinks. His least favorite foods are pork and fish that isn't cooked by either grilling or frying.
