Personality Traits
Good-natured: Danny is, ultimately, a basically nice person who’d like to get along with just about everybody. He’d never put anyone down or try and make himself out to be superior to them, and he’s unflinchingly polite. At times, this overlaps with a kind of severe conflict aversion – though you’d never guess it from seeing him on the field, he hates interpersonal conflict more than anything, and will appease, acquiesce, or back away on anything just to get out of it.

Popular: Star wide receiver of the football team combined with his generally positive attitude means Danny’s a pretty well-liked guy. His family is respected around the town, and he gets along pretty well with the Everbrook High ‘in crowd’. Those on the social periphery might consider him ‘just another popular kid’, and in truth he could do more to curtail some of the bullying his peers engage in (see: adverse to conflict), but most would have neutral-to-positive feelings towards him.  

Smarter than he looks: Danny’s not a leader, preferring to have someone else call the shots. It’d be wrong to assume that he’s a dumb jock, however – he’s a deep thinker, and he’s always paying attention. In school, he’s a middling student – he’d be better if he had more time to study, and math continually evades him, but his command of history and English are pretty good, and he’s got a decent mind for problem-solving.

Family History/Backstory
Danny’s lived in Everbrook his whole life. His parents met in Portland, and moved out to Everbrook to start a family. Now, his father is the chief of the local fire station, and his mother works as a public defender; they’ve been living in Everbrook for 20 years, and their active presence in the community as well as the nature of their jobs means that they’re well-regarded by the community as a whole. He has two siblings – an older brother, Jacob, who’s currently attending college in Massachusetts, and a younger sister, Anjelica, who’s entering her second year in middle school.

As soon as he was old enough, Danny tried out for the Everbrook High football team, and he’s risen to prominence as their star wide receiver. He’s already been approached by scouts from several colleges interested in giving him a scholarship to play for them – he’s got friends, a normal family life, prospects, hobbies. Seems like there’s nothing terribly strange coming up in his future.

Right?
