Go on, underestimate me. I dare you...

Darius is going to be a hero. And not just any hero. He dreams of becoming the sidekick of Beacon, the greatest hero Big Little City has ever known.

Sure, life has a penchant for stomping dreams into the mud. And yes, Darius is small, skinny, and currently stuck in a rundown orphanage, but those are mere technicalities. Are the chances of gaining fame in Big Little City nearly impossible? Sure. But Darius eats impossible for breakfast. He's cunning, crafty, and can unleash a charming smile that never, ever fails.

Count him out at your peril.
