History: Daniel was raised for the majority of his life with only his mother, never having a true father figure at any point. This was due in part due to the fact that his mother refused to marry anyone after his father, never able to move on from him, and always waiting for the day that he came back. Daniel lived a generally sheltered life in a safe neighborhood and with no economic struggles, and as a result, he never developed a sense of danger, usually wandering into situations that most people would realize were dangerous while he simply didn't notice. Because of this, he relied heavily on staying close to his friends in his early years, often mimicking what other people did rather than discover how to do things for himself. As he began to grow, however, that led to his entire personality being a mixture of personalities from people that he had seen either in real life or on television, and he became incredibly impressionable until he reached middle school.

While he was still in elementary school, however, he developed a fondness for archery, often shooting suction cup arrows around his room when he got bored. Other than that, he would only ever show any interest in doing something when with a friend, and he would almost always do what his friends suggested rather than do what he personally wanted. When he reached middle school, however, he became much more independant, hanging out with friends less and spending time alone more. When he became self aware of how impressionable he was, he began using "placebos" on himself, convincing himself that wearing certain things would make him act differently. For example, during his middle school years, he began wearing a coat, believing that it made him less shy and much more open and confident, despite that being entirely in his head. He also began believing that wearing a necklace increased his luck, and that wearing exactly three would give him great luck, which eventually made him more confident and likely to achieve any goal that he set his mind to, but inadvertantly causing him to psyche himself out if any of the necklaces were removed, making his preformances poorer. He also wore a ring on his middle finger so that he could "aim better", and he believed that 13 was his lucky number.

At some point in his life, and he never realized when, he began swooning over every boy that he met, almost always developing a crush on whoever happened to be with him at the time. However, he never acted on his impulses, always too shy to say anything, and if he had his coat on, believing that his life would be cooler if he stayed single. This, along with being gay in the first place, ultimately led to him staying alive. During his first year of high school, soon after he turned 15, a girl attempted to flirt with him specifically, ignoring anyone else in the area. He was wearing his coat at the time, so he tried to be cocky and brush the girl off, only to have her attempt to charmspeak him into liking her. He had begun to give in to her when a completely random boy walked past his field of vision in the distance, and his eyes immediately homed in on the boy as his heart fluttered at the sight of his new crush. When he looked back, he realized that the girl was an empuse and immediately ran, having never seen anything like that before. He was chased for a good distance, out the school, across the town, and almost to his home, with Daniel hurling anything that was not firmly nailed into place at the creature, and eventually lost it by using his knowledge of the town's geography to his advantage.

When he managed to get home, he told his mother, who acted much less confused than Daniel had expected. She told him about his familial heritage, and they moved places. He spent the next two years moving from place to place, dodging the occasional monster every eight or nine months and then running away, before his mother finally, through a series of events that Daniel was never informed about, discovering the location of Camp Half-Blood. At the age of seventeen, he arrived at the camp.

Weapons: A bow with a quiver of exactly 13, celestial bronze, arrows, unless otherwise specified.
