Name: Daniel Cooper
Handle: Dan, "The Man" around his older peers
Gender: Male
Age: 15
Personality: Hot, and brash easily describe Daniel the best. Daniel knows things would probably go better for him if he took a second to think, but he'd rather not. "Life is more exciting if you do something, rather than take the time to think about doing something." His older brother used to tell him, and Daniel has taken that to heart. This motto shows itself the most in his most prized deck. He adamantly defends the notion that the game is for fun, and everyone should have fun doing it; if they don't why are they even playing?
Bio: Daniel's family wasn't the poorest or even the richest, but they were loving, and cared for each other like nothing else in the world. Years ago when he was much younger he saw his brother dueling, it was amazing, he had style and the thought he put into assembling his deck baffled the younger Dan. So to follow behind his brother's furious dueling he took up the game as well, but he didn't have a job so he could only do so much with his brother's spare cards. But neither of them cared, Dan's brother even assembled "rush" decks to play and they spent countless evenings dueling each other. As Dan got older his brother offered to buy him his first own starter deck, but with so many choices Dan couldn't figure out which one he wanted.
It wasn't until much later that he knew which to pick. During his elementary school days his best friend was being bullied, he had lost a duel and the person who had just beat him was shaking him down for every rare card he had, Dan couldn't dare stand by while his friend lost everything valuable so he challenged the bully with his deck. Being the absolute mess of
"cool" monsters it was, it didn't take long until Dan was loosing himself, but somehow through the skin of his teeth, and using every lucky coin he ever tossed into a fountain he finally beat the bully. It was there Daniel knew, he wanted to be a hero, so the next day he and his brother went out to buy a structure deck "Justice Calls". Since then he still doesn't have a job there's only so much he can do to switch out cards, but he still uses his first deck passionately. He's won first place rarely at his local tournaments, and his standing has taken a steady fall after each update to the game, but people are always happy to see him at the locals. Even sometimes referring to him as their own local "hero".
While his brother was checking his e-mail, for what he never said, but he found an invitation to a duel tournament. Although the money would be nice to have, he wanted to see how such a competitive environment would test his hero, passion-filled, brother and so he gave the invite to him. Money was never #1 in the Cooper household, but following your heart, and doing your best always is. Besides, they probably wouldn't mind if a close relative went in his place, after all they had extremely similar ideals; the decks however are a different story.
