Character Information
Character Name: Daniel "Danny" Fenton
Fandom: Danny Phantom
Source: http://dannyphantom.wikia.com/wiki/Danny_Phantom_(character)

Character History: Danny is the son of scientists Jack and Maddie Fenton. His parents have dedicated their lives to the study and extermination of Ghosts to a near obsessive level. While his parents always had their hearts in the right place, the two of them frequently had trouble separating their work from their personal lives. From time to time, their preoccupation with the supernatural left them ignorant to their children's emotional - and sometimes physical - needs. Many times Danny's older sister, Jazz, had to step in and provide the guidance and emotional support that Danny needed. Despite their absent-mindedness, however, Jack and Maddie love their children deeply and care for them to the best of their ability. Danny and Jazz love and respect their parents in return.

Danny's parents are avid inventors of ghost-hunting technology and weaponry, and often carelessly leave it within reach of their children. That was how the trouble started for Danny. Shortly after he turned fourteen, his parents had completed a device that would open a portal into an alternate dimension called the "Ghost Zone", where most ghosts reside before they escape into the human world. However, they couldn't get the portal to activate. Curious, Danny brought his two best friends, Tucker and Sam, down to the lab and inspected the device himself. Danny managed to get the portal to activate properly -- while he was still inside.

The energy from the Ghost Portal affected Danny's body on a molecular level, altering his DNA and giving him ghost powers. He gained the ability to switch between his human form and a newly-acquired "ghost form", and gained access to ghost powers such as intangibility, flight, and manipulation of ectoplasmic energy.

However, the changes in Danny's DNA weren't the only result of the portal's activation. Now that the gateway to the Ghost Zone was open, ghosts began escaping into the human world and wreaking havoc. Danny took it upon himself to use his newfound powers to fight the escaped ghosts and send them back where they belong.

For the first few months, as Danny was getting used to his powers, he only had to worry about small, weak ghost pests that could go down with a few punches and kicks. The first real test of Danny's ghost-fighting powers came when the ghost of his school's old lunch lady slipped through and went on a violent, meat-themed rampage in response to the school's menu being changed. He not only had to rely on his powers but on strategy to defeat her, and was able to capture her inside his father's newest invention, the Fenton Thermos -- a device designed to suck up and store ghosts until they could be safely released into the Ghost Zone.

Danny chose not to tell his parents about his secret new powers. As much as he loved them, he knew how they felt about ghosts, and he was terrified that they might try to dissect him -- or worse, obliterate him outright. He only shared his secret with Tucker and Sam, who lend their aid in his ghost-fighting escapades however they can.

[Accidental Video]

[ The screen flickers from black to a dull, light gray. At first it looks like a video issue, but it's just such a misty day that the forms are difficult to make out. After a moment things begin to take shape. There's a young, black-haired boy dressed plainly and comfortably in a tee and jeans wandering near the Southern gate. He looks confused and bewildered, then frowns, turning back to the gate. ]

Hey! Let me out!

[ Danny glances over his shoulder ]

Or... in, whatever! Wherever I was before!

[ He slams a fist against the gate and grimaces. Then he presses his open palm against the gate and concentrates. After a moment he pulls his hand away and stares at it, confused, like he were expecting something to happen. He turns again and gazes around in the mist, narrowing his eyes in determination. ]

[ Danny takes a step forward and begins to walk through the fog, squinting to try and see in front of him. ]

All right. New plan. Way in's closed, but there's gotta be a way out, right?

…Man, how'd I even get here?

Hello? Is anyone out there?

[ He's answered with a low, feral growl. Danny freezes, then slowly turns his head toward the source of the sound. The camera's angle changes, following his gaze. A figure takes shape in the mist, a ratdog EVO whose jaws take up far more of its body than it logically should. There's another growl and Danny gaze snaps toward it, revealing the ratdog's brought company for dinner. ]

[ Danny grimaces, backing away from the predators until he's backed up against the gate, cornered by three EVOs. He takes a breath balls his hands into fists, stepping forward into an offensive stance. ]

Sorry, rover, but you're gonna find me a little hard to chew!

I'm Going Ghost!!

…Uh…

I said I'm Going Ghost!

[ Whatever he was trying to do clearly had no effect, and the EVOs advance unhindered. Danny pales presses against the gate, glancing around frantically. His eyes catch something on the ground and he reaches down, grabbing a large, thick stick that he hadn't noticed before -- or had it even been there before? No, that's silly, of course it had -- and wielding it like a bat. ]

Okay… uh… stay back! I'm armed!

[ He gulps. ]

Hello? Is anyone out there?

Somebody! Anybody! A little help here?!

[ One of the EVOs gets a little too close for comfort, and Danny swings his stick and clocks it right on the bridge of its snout. It's stunned for a moment, just long enough for Danny to dart past it and take off running along the perimeter of the gate - with the three EVOs hot in pursuit. ]

Help me!!
