Darius is an Urb residing in Miniopolis from The Urbz: Sims in the City for handheld and Urbzville from The Urbz: Sims in the City for console.
Biography[]
The Urbz: Sims in the City (handheld)[]
In the handheld version of The Urbz, Darius is the leader of the Streeties and Club Xizzle's bouncer. He appears spray painted on the side of the Rep group clubhouse, in Club Xizzle, and in the artwork for most Xizzles that aren't related to a Rep group.
During None Shall Pass, Daddy Bigbucks hires Darius to try to enter the graveyard while the player is defending it. This will only happen if the player reaches 5 body skill before reaching 5 charisma skill, as Lily Gates will appear instead if the opposite is true.
Towards the end of the game, Darius will be working the door at the Cinema d'Urbania and won't let the player in unless they are wearing all black.
Gaining a certain amount of rep points with the Streeties unlocks a mission from Darius: the requirements include seriously annoying Daddy Bigbucks by lowering his relationship to -50, convincing Ewan Watahmee to join the Streeties, and getting the highest level in the Hoopz minigame. The first requirement can only be done after completing the game, however, so if you unlock this mission early, you cannot complete it until you finish the game. Fulfilling all these goals gives the player two Streetie Rep points.
The Urbz: Sims in the City (Console)[]
The player Urb first meets Darius through their friend will.i.am at their new apartment, where he asks them to show him a Power Move. He is seen throughout the city on billboards and posters in Urbzville as well, though they will change to the player once they reach a certain Reputation. In each district, he will arrive at the VIP Room at approximately midnight, and if the player Urb has a high enough reputation to get past the bouncer, Darius will reward them with a power move that can be used to get rid of that district's villain.
Darius has the highest rep out of anyone in the game: before being replaced by the player, his face is seen on billboards, which reveals that he is famous on a citywide scale.
Once the player Urb has defeated all the villains in each district and collected all of the pieces of Darius's Secret Machine, a cinematic will play where Darius gives the player the key to his penthouse, unlocking it to live in. He then retires to his blimp to travel to Miniopolis (the setting of The Urbz handheld), but will still send the player messages and arrive at VIP parties.
