[b][u]Appearance:[/u][/b] Daniel stands at 168 centimeters and is a rather well built fellow.

[b][u]Weaknesses:[/u][/b] [list]
[*]Daniel never expects things to go well. This can make him irritate other people or make him focus on perceived or non-existent threats in stressful situations.
[*]He has a hard time adapting to unexpected situations when out of contact with a superior.
[*]Due to nearly drowning in his youth, Daniel suffers from aquaphobia and can start panicking whenever he gets as much as splashed with water unexpectedly.

[b][u]Personality:[/u][/b] Though Daniel is sarcastic and sometimes rude, he's happy to engage in idle chat. While he's not the brightest star himself, he tends to get frustrated when faced with people that take a while to understand him, although it may not be their fault. In combat, he prefers to be the grunt because he doesn't feel confident making decisions, especially those that can cost lives. He has an annoying tendency to switch to encyclopedia mode when people ask about weaponry or military history.
 
[b][u]History:[/u][/b] Daniel was raised on the outskirts of Køge. With fields and forests on one side and a public sports center on the other, he fell in love with sports quickly, leading to a good physical condition. He enlisted at the age of 22. In addition to basic training, he underwent specialised urban warfare training, but never progressed through the ranks due to his indecisive nature. He volunteered for the Willman Laboratory mission mainly to gain new experience as he never left Earth before.
