Biography[]
Keith raped Sydney's sister Carly, telling Carly the whole time that it was her fault; she made him do this, because he could never take his eyes off her. In revenge, Sydney Sage hired Ibrahim Mazur to stage a Strigoi attack and forcibly remove one of Keith's eyes. Sydney thought maybe this would help him keep his eye(s) off of any more women.

Adrian and Sydney expose everything they know; Keith is removed from his Alchemist position in Palm Springs and sent to re-education; and Sydney is offered the Alchemist job in Palm Springs.
The Golden Lily[]
Sydney Sage is called to the Alchemists headquarters for an unknown reason. She is brought into a room with a few fellow Alchemists, one of whom is Keith's father, Tom Darnell, and Keith is locked in a cell behind a one-way mirror. The Alchemists want to know her opinion about Keith enduring more re-education. She insults his character horribly but says he should not endure much more. Tom thanks her for her statement, as the Alchemists have lessened his sentence of re-education. Keith is not seen for the remainder of The Golden Lily.

The Fiery Heart[]
Jared calls Keith through a video call for Sydney to talk to him after taking her and her sister, Zoe, out for lunch. Keith is seen to be extremely different than what he was before entering Re-Education, as he has begun to talk to himself, telling himself that he has to "purge the darkness". He is now working in an office, as he is not allowed to do any field work due to having worked with Moroi. According to Sydney, he looks like he's given up both mentally and physically.
Silver Shadows[]
While in Re-Education, Sydney notices a message Keith wrote to her sister on the Wall of Truth, apologizing to her. She realizes that Keith was re-educated in the same facility she was in. In a dream message to Adrian, she tells him to find her sister, as she would likely know where Keith was located. When Adrian and Marcus find Carly, she reveals that Keith had indeed come to her after his release, begging for her forgiveness and asking her to report his assault on her to the human police. She refused, as she wanted Keith to live the rest of his life in fear, the same way she had used to. However, Keith still sends her emails regularly, begging for forgiveness. Carly gives them Keith's' address, revealing that he lived in Idaho.

- Daytime Walking: Unlike the Strigoi, humans can walk around during the day.
- Endurance: Humans do not have an advanced musculature that produces fewer fatigue toxins during physical activity and thus tire faster than Dhampir. Humans are less resilient than Dhampirs.
- Memory: Humans have great memory when it has been trained.
- Metabolism: Humans have a metabolism that differs from person to person. Some humans have faster metabolisms, which helps them be resistant to diseases. Alchemists who have a charmed tattoo have a better metabolism than those who do not.
