Darius Zackly (Earth-2014)

Darius Zackly is a Knight and the King of the Iron Nation. During the ensuing Fourth Great Bender War, Darius casted aside all of the ancient hate between the Knights and the Benders in the hopes of ending the madness of Madara Uchiha, efectively allying himself and the Iron Nation with the Army of the Last Alliance.

Early Life
Darius Zackly was born to the Land of Iron's House of Zackly, and like all Knights received personal tutelage by a Elder, in his case, Maak Zackly. Darius demonstrated abilities with the sword, and so Maak sought to improve his abilities to the higher level. In mere seven years, Darius Zackly became a name of legend within the Iron Nation's legends.

When he was young, Darius and other Knights were pitted against the Waterbender Hanzō, a Bender of Amegakure. While his fellow warriors escaped in fear, Darius stood strong against his opponent, willing to protect his kind. During their duel, Hanzō's kusarigama broke through Darius' calibur and cut his head, poisoning him. After the battle was over, Hanzō acknowledged Darius' greatness and gave him a antidote for the poison, leaving him alone in the forest.
