A.I.-11 also known as "Darius", was a cybernetic life form hailing from the Acheron.

Origin

A.I.-11 was created by the Acheronian scientist Mardok. Darius was Mardok's first project and he helped his maker with successive projects. But where Mardok considered his creations expendable, Darius cared for the outcasts. His mind was erased by Mardok and he was banished to a nearby asteroid that when he found his way to Cairn. Because of the fractured memory, Darius came to believe that he was from Earth and was a simple farmer who was abducted by aliens.

R.E.C.R.U.I.T.S.

He was recruited into the R.E.C.R.U.I.T.S. along with Amon Hakk, Borb Borbb, Bertron Diib, Davroth Catto, Ig'nea, Jiv Reduu, Lydea Mallor and Zena Moonstruk. He helped battle the rogue Jiv Reduu.

Darius was a loyal and selfless memeber of the L.E.G.I.O.N.. He was also the first recruit to die in battle. He was betrayed by teammate Ig'nea, who secretly worked for her father, Maximillian G'odd. Maximillian succeeded in making Vril Dox II disband the L.E.G.I.O.N.. After she was defeated, she had amassed an army of super-mercenaries. One of them, Varkan delivered a blow that beheaded Darius. Before he shut down, Darius asked Borb Borbb to return him to his homeworld, to his maker.

Resurrection

Dox studied Darius' head, which had been kept by Lobo as an ornament. He found a chip in the head with life-sim circuitry that was more advanced than that of Colu. He guessed its origin was the planet Acheron, which was rumoured to be a haven of cybernetic science.

Upon their arrival to the planet, a swarm of small androids immediately recognized Darius and began to repair him. Darius confronted his creator. Mardok threatened all the robotic creations, so Darius killed him. After that the other cybernetic life had no purpose, so Darius chose to remain with them to lead and guide them.
