Darrel Darry Curtis is the oldest of the Curtis brothers. He is six-feet-two, and broad shouldered and muscular. He has dark brown hair that kicks out in front and a slight cowlick in the back, just like his dad. He's got eyes that are like two pieces of pale blue-green ice. They have a determined set to them, like the rest of him. He looks older than 20 - tough, cool, and smart. He doesn't understand anything that isn't plain, hard fact, but he uses his head. Darry was an aspiring football star in high school with prospects of going to college, but his parents couldn't afford college even with the football scholarship he won, and when his parents died, he went to work roofing houses.
