Darem Reymi is a foil for Caleb Mir and Genesis Lythe with potential for a lot more. Reymi fits the classic “rich kid” bit on the show. He comes from essentially royalty, which clashes with the difficult background of other characters, such as Caleb Mir.

Reymi’s entitled background makes him abrasive early on. However, the show is slowly revealing a difficult relationship with his parents. Their lack of acknowledgement of his accomplishments is weighing on him and making him more open to his peers.

As Reymi continues to develop, this may be your classic enemy-turned-true-friend storyline. The show seems well on its way to executing it in a fresh and fun manner. Reymi cracks the Top 5 because he is a Khionian. While in his true alien form, Reymi was able to space walk without an environment suit in the series premiere, "Kids These Days."
