Manga
Darius is first seen in Briggs, protecting Kimbly with other chimeras. When Edward Elric and Kimbly fight in abandoned mining city, Ed saves him and Heinkel from being crushed by falling bits of roof. They help Ed to get a steel pipe from his abdomen and agree to help him. The trio go to Central, to see if anybody else has returned to their old safehouse. There they encounter Ling Yao, who soon changes to Greed and make alliance with him. When travelling around Centrals slum area, they are attacked by Pride, who has taken Al as a hostage. After a brief fight Ed causes a complete blackout, enabling Heinkel to attack Pride. Gluttony joins the battle, and Darius fights him in his chimera form. Just as Gluttony tries to absorb Greed, Ed and Darius to his fake Gate of truth, Ran Fan appears and saves them. Some slum dwellers appear with a lantern, providing Pride a source of light. Pride tries to kill Heinkel but Ed saves him and tricks Pride to divert his shadows to Al. Fu uses a flashbang to destroy Prides shadows. Darius and Ed take Als armour to safety. Pride eats Gluttony, gaining his remaining lives and his sense of smell. Hohenheim joins the battle and creates a plan to beat Pride. While Hohenheim distracts Pride, Al sneaks behind him and attacks. Pride captures Al, but Hohenheim creates a dome of earth around them, deriving Pride source of his shadows. After a night of rest, Jelso, Zampano, Scar and Dr. Marcoh arrive. Two groups join and start to plan their next movement. While Dr. Marcoh and Heinkel stay back, other chimeras, Scar, Ed, Hohenheim and Ran Fan leave for Central. Central is overrun by masses of soldiers, so the group can't use the old entrance to Fathers lair. They use tunnel under third research facility to enter the lair. Group splits in two, Hohenheim and Ran Fan in other and Ed, chimeras and Scar in other. Ed's group comes to a big gate and they open it. From the other side comes mass of Homunculus like zombies that try to eat them. Group fight the Homunculi but they can't kill the seemingly invulnerable creatures.
