Sam sacrificed himself to restore everybody who had died in the Aspect war, an act that basically undid all the damage done by the Aspects at the cost of his life.



Base of Operations

Darkstar initially operates from Wheeler's Gym. Under the guise of a regular gym, the hideout is located in a secret basement complex in the building. The hideout is only accessible through the staff room. The entire gym is reinforced and protected by Wheeler's Earth Magic, and security is maintained through Wheeler's Stone Golems and Seekers. The hideout's security is further amplified by Lazarus by placing a modified "Sigils of Radiant Sanctuary" spell within key structural components of the building, masking the hideout from vision-based infernals or operatives.

Members of Darkstar use this hideout as a residence, with multiple rooms for facilities, and a common room for which the members can socialize, sleep, and eat, and is where Wheeler watches over the gym and members during missions. A separate room is reserved for planning and strategy.

The gym was initially infested by soul beasts, hence business was at an all time low, until John cleaned the monsters up, improving operating conditions. Wheeler's gym has since gained more reputation and business.

After the events of Calliope's invasion on the slums, the gym has since been taken over by the New Militia. The hideout changes to Kyrael's Fortress Castle, which contains the same setup as Wheeler's Gym, minus the stealth defences.


Alliances

Darkstar has built up several alliances with other factions and groups, due to their adventures in other dimensions and neighbouring countries.

The Champions: During his time in Millennium City, Lazarus' heroic exploits become noticed by Defender and the Champions. Lazarus has since collaborated with the team in numerous missions. When Lazarus introduces Reya, Sapphire gladly trains her in controlling her powers.

Kyrael Prima of Corinth: Kyrael is an old friend to Decen, and by extension has a soft spot for his remnants. Kyrael and Jason have a strong friendship. Kyrael helps Sam control his Hunter's Eye, and offered to help Jason's team rescue Junon. Kyrael offers the Inquisition's services if Jason requires it.

The Steel Pack: Steel, a dragon slaying operative working under Kyrael in the Inquisition, develops a bond with Blackflame after a sparring session. The two frequently partied together and had drinks. Steel considers Sam a great and powerful ally, and welcomes a collaboration with his team to slay monsters.

Merrow Rivenlight: Merrow, Decen's Guardian, has taken a liking to Jason due to being Decen's Remnant, as well as Sam, being soul linked to Decen's Familiar. Later in the story, Merrow discovers that Sam is a reincarnation of Decen, and supports him in his battle against Calliope Ariandal. Merrow offers her services when the time comes for Jason and Sam to battle Calliope, as well as her master, Mogul.

The Waystation: Mavus befriends Josephine and the demigods of the Waystation, during their final battle against Mogul, the members of the Waystation assist Mavus and the Inquisition for a final stand against the evil Aspect.

The Street Angels: Following Mogul's reveal, Aaron Sterling, the Giantkiller, sacrifices himself to save the others from the Aspect. After being rescued by Sam and Lazarus, Aaron realizes that the survivors have a place in the Inquisition, and decides to offer his services to helping Kyrael Prima, alongside his fellow gang members. Aaron assists Mavus in their final battle against Mogul.


Trivia

1) Ferris Wheeler is the most physically built member of the team. The second is John "Jason" Crypt, and the third being Lawrence Wright.

2) Amana is the most intelligent member of the team, with Junon being the second smartest due to her impressive college grades.

3) Sam is the least intelligent member of the team, with the exception of Clyde, despite receiving college education.

4) Lawrence was a drug user in his years at the Mage Academy, but has since quit. Lawrence still occasionally accepts a smoke from Clyde.

5) Sam is the strongest member of Darkstar, with Jason being the second strongest.

6) Sam suggests the name of their team to be "Darkstar" but Jason calls the suggestion lame, which is a nod to when a younger Jason suggested the name of his mage group to be "Ninja Squad" which Calliope Ariandal calls lame.

7) Sam and Tob are known within the team as "Darkstar's Hooligans" for their pranks and antics together. Jason and Amana are known within the team as "Darkstar's Power Couple" due to their relationship and the fact that they do most of their missions together.
