'''Daniel''' a.k.a. '''Danielbeast''' or '''Beast''' is [[Bree]]'s best friend, (on and off) love interest, and the co-star of the lonelygirl15 [[List of lonelygirl15 videos|video series]]. Daniel was also the longest running character on [[lonelygirl15]].
His first videos were made in [[Daniel's bedroom|his bedroom]].

==Background==
 
==Background==
Daniel graduated from high school in June 2006 and had a graduation party which Bree was [[My Parents Suck...|not allowed to attend.]]  When summer began, he taught Bree how to make video blogs and was the one who set up her YouTube account. Daniel first disclosed specific information about his parents in [[Drinking Problems]], where he revealed that growing up, although they were not loud or abusive drunks, he was "violently ignored" by them. He also said that the bad times were when one of them would stop drinking, because the other one of them would get better and he would finally  have a parent, but then, all the arguing would start again. At the time of this video he claimed they had been sober for two years, however, much later in the series, it was confirmed they had, at some point, began [[Drunken Yodeling|drinking again.]] His parents' alcoholism meant that Daniel [[Comfort Food|spent more time with his grandmother]], which he did until she died.

Daniel graduated from high school in June 2006 and had a graduation party which Bree was [[My Parents Suck...|not allowed to attend.]]  When summer began, he taught Bree how to make video blogs and was the one who set up her YouTube account.
  
Like many fans, Daniel began to investigate Bree's religion and decided to [[Where Are They Going?|follow]] her around to record her actions, even after Bree had asked him [[My Helper|not to do so.]] On both these occasions [[Lucy]] took Bree somewhere; once to a nearby park for what appeared to be a practice session for the upcoming Ceremony and once to a medical complex.
 
  
As Daniel investigated [[Order Of Denderah|further]], he became increasingly worried. Unheeding of Bree's requests for him to stop, Daniel [[The Ceremony|followed]] her once again to [[Topanga Canyon|the site of where the Ceremony]] was to be held. Although he couldn't see much, he did manage to see many hooded figures, one being Bree, before he realized he was being followed and had to flee.

Like many fans, Daniel began to investigate Bree's religion and decided to [[Where Are They Going?|follow]] her around to record her actions, even after Bree had asked him [[My Helper|not to do so.]] As Daniel investigated [[Order Of Denderah|further]], he became increasingly worried, and decided to break into [[Lucy's apartment]] to look for clues, where he found pictures of himself on her computer. He became worried and posted a video on the subject.  His worries finally made sense to Bree, causing her to begin to question her [[Hymn of One|religion]]. After an unsuccessful [[What Makes Us Sad?|attempt]] to excuse her from the Ceremony, Bree's parents were taken away by the local Deacons, and Bree went [[On The Run|on the run]] with Daniel.  As a result, Daniel [[Silent Treatment|dropped out]] of junior college, where he was taking film classes, and he [[Jonas?|left his job]] at [[Gas 'n Eats]] to accompany Bree.
  
Not convinced that Bree was being truthful about having [[I Completed The Ceremony|completed the Ceremony]], Daniel broke into [[Lucy's apartment]] to look for clues, where he found pictures of himself on her computer. He became worried and posted a video on the subject.  His worries finally made sense to Bree, causing her to begin to question her [[Hymn of One|religion]].
+
After Bree's untimely [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 10 of 12 – 5 pm|death]] Daniel, along with the new [[TAAG|friends]] he had made along the way, continued the [[The Resistance|fight]] against the Order, vowing to avenge Bree's death.  
  
After an unsuccessful [[What Makes Us Sad?|attempt]] to excuse her from the Ceremony,  Bree's parents were taken away by the local Deacons, and Bree went [[On The Run|on the run]] with Daniel. As a result, Daniel [[Silent Treatment|dropped out]] of junior college, where he was taking film classes, and he [[Jonas?|left his job]] at [[Gas 'n Eats]] to accompany Bree.
+
The fight [[Portal:LG15: The Resistance|continues...]]
  
==On the Run==
 
After going on the run, Daniel and Bree stayed at a [[Motel Pool|motel]] where they were soon warned by [[Gemma]] that they were being [[Someone's Following You|followed.]] Having received Gemma's warning, Bree and Daniel did a half-hearted [[Man In The Suit|search]] of their motel room, but found no one. Gemma once again posted a [[A Watcher|video]] telling the two that they were being watched, and this time Bree [[Fleeing The Watcher|heeded]] her warnings and fled. Although Bree said she overreacted, the duo found a different [[Survival Skills|motel room]].  Soon, Daniel [[Silent Treatment|became angry]] at Bree for not taking their plight seriously enough, but the two quickly made up and Bree gave Daniel an impromptu [[Thanksgiving|Thanksgiving feast.]] After coming back from their feast, however, they saw that their motel had been [[Ransacked!|ransacked.]] Once again on the run, they abandon their car and found themselves [[Homeless|on the streets.]]
 
  
[[Image:Daniel Jonas1.jpg|thumb|"Bro Time"]]
 
While they were in desperate need, [[Jonas]] began posting videos [[Trust Issues|offering help.]] Although, Daniel was extremely [[Jonas?|skeptical]], he asked the viewers [[The Test|to vote]] on whether or not to trust him. The viewers voted to [[Your Decision|trust]] Jonas, and Bree chose to stay with him.  However, Daniel chose to [[Back Home|go home.]] Daniel ultimately changed his mind and [[Christmas Surprise|joined]] Bree and Jonas at Christmas. The next day, though, [[Bree's Gone|Bree went missing.]] After [[Roadtrip|finding out]] that Bree had gone to find her father, Jonas and Daniel hit the road to try to find her. They were able to locate Bree, however, her father was [[The Unthinkable Happened|gunned down]] by the Order and the trio was forced to flee the scene.
 
 
==A New Year==
 
Upon retuning to Jonas's house, Daniel tried to [[Purple Monkey Returns|cheer Bree up]], but he was unsuccessful. Then Daniel posted a [[Bree And I Hooked Up|video]] claiming that he and Bree had "hooked-up", which Bree vehemently [[Daniel's A Liar|denied.]]
 
 
After having his advances once again rejected by Bree, Daniel set out to [[Pins and Pints]] to forget his troubles, and came home extremely [[inebriated|drunk]] with a [[Katherine McPhee|random girl]] (guest star and American Idol runner-up, Katherine McPhee). The next day, a remorseful Daniel [[Hungover|awoke]] with Jonas's graffiti on his face.
 
 
Wanting to find the girl who had [[Truth Or Dare|come home]] with him, Daniel once again set out to Pins and Pints, but this time he did not return. Worried for Daniel's safety, Bree and Jonas set out to find a man the bartender said Daniel had been drinking with, but with [[The Cowboy|little success.]] In [[Miss Me?]] a drugged Daniel tried to convince Bree to do the Ceremony, which confirmed he had been kidnapped by [[the Order]].  Bree and Jonas successfully rescued Daniel and ultimately [[The Human Ransom|foiled the Order's plans]] with the help of [[Tachyon]] and [[Brother]].
 
 
After being rescued, Daniel, Bree, and Jonas were forced to flee Jonas's home after having a [[Watch This!|confrontation]] with a [[Watcher]], and decided to hide in a cabin in the mountains. Once at the cabin, Jonas and Bree went [[Snow Angels|exploring]] their surroundings. When he awoke, Daniel was briefly [[Jonas Sucks|jealous and angry]] that he had not been included in their exploration, however, as more pressing matters arose, the boys [[Cracked The File|put aside their differences]] and, with the help of the LG forum members, were able to crack the file given to them by [[Tachyon]].
 
 
Shortly after they were able to crack the file, Bree found what she thought was a Watcher symbol in Jonas's cabin and became [[How Dumb Am I?|convinced]] that Jonas was a part of the Order. Daniel, however, was [[Bree Is Crazy|not at all convinced]] of Jonas's betrayal.  He tried to talk to Jonas [[Interrogation 101|one-on-one]] but was met with much anger. After Jonas [[What The Hell?!??!|escaped]] and [[Proving Bree Wrong|proved Bree wrong]], the three went [[On The Road Again|on the road again.]]
 
 
Jonas brought Daniel and Bree to his Aunt Alex's house, who was away on business at the time. While Bree [[Training Hard|went with Tachyon]], Jonas's aunt came back in town, and Daniel and Jonas were invited by Alex to a [[Uncle Dan|fashion party]]. Daniel and Alex appeared to be very interested in each other, much to Jonas's dismay. Bree [[Lucy!?!?!|posted a video]] saying there was a photo at the party which she thought was Alex and Lucy and warned the guys to leave Alex's home and meet up with her. Alex [[Alex Is...|confirmed]] that she was was aware of the Order and the boys left to join up with Bree.
 
 
[[Image:0162-DanielBeingTortured.jpg|thumb|left|Daniel being psychologically tortured.]]
 
After a short [[Truckstop Reunion|reunion]], the three headed to [[Las Vegas]] where Daniel and Jonas briefly tried to [[Co-Ed Foosball|teach]] Bree the art of foosball. While in Vegas, Bree went to [[Vegas, Baby!|see the sights]], while Jonas and Daniel got [[inebriated|drunk.]] After three days in Vegas, BDJ was [[Subjects Apprehended|abducted]] by the Order, who [[Psychological Torture|psychologically tortured]] them and temporarily persuaded Bree to do the Ceremony. The three were able to [[Communication Terminated|escape]] their captors, and began trying to piece together [[Missing Days|what had happened to them during that time]]. 
 
 
For a while, they lived out of Jonas's car, but eventually they decided to track Alex down, and [[Lying Bastards|followed]] her to [[Mexico]].  While they were there, they overheard her arguing with a member of the Order over the situation with involving the kidnapping. The next day, Bree was [[Spring Break Sucks|left alone]] to think about their plight while Daniel and Jonas once again got drunk.
 
 
The following day, Daniel and Bree went to Alex and [[Confrontation|confronted]] her about her activities in the Order. Alex denied that she knew anything about the kidnapping that took place in Vegas. Daniel seemed to believe her, and later [[Apology Accepted?|helped]] Alex film and edit a video explaining her true feelings. Daniel and Alex began getting [[Spanglish|closer]] after this, running hand in hand and playing on the beach.  However things quickly soured, for within a few days Alex had alerted the Order to BDJ's location.  However, when the Order arrived, Alex said that they were there for her, not Bree.  Apparantly, according to Alex, the Order had found a new girl to complete the Ceremony and no longer needed Bree.
 
 
After finding out about Alex's [[Lying Bastards|true allegiance]], BDJ headed to a [[The bunker|bunker]] where Bree began investigating who the [[New Girl|new girl]] might be. While they were in the bunker, Daniel began [[Running For Life|drinking heavily]] again, leading Jonas and Bree to hold an [[Intervention|intervention]] on his behalf. After their attempted intervention, Bree found [[Sloppy Drunk|more information]] on a possible lead to the new girl, who she began to believe was a girl named [[Jules]]. While Bree continued to investiage Jules, Daniel announced that he had [[Quitting The Sauce|once again]] become sober. Jonas tried to hypnotize himself and Daniel to find out what happened to them in [[Psychological Torture|captivity]], but had [[What Happened to Us???|no success.]] Within days, Bree noticed posts from a girl named [[Taylor]] living in [[Zavalla]], Texas who told her that she recognized Julia.  After nearly a fortnight spent in the bunker, the three decided to [[OUT OF THE BUNKER!!!|leave]] and find Julia to warn her that she was in danger.
 
 
Upon leaving the bunker, Daniel, Bree, and Jonas headed to Texas to find the new [[New Girl|Ceremony girl]]. BDJ teamed up with [[Sarah]] and [[Taylor]] and were able to locate [[Jules]]. Later, Bree gave herself up to save Jules, and Daniel and Jonas spent the next month following the Order and trying to save her. Finally locating where Bree had been hidden, Daniel, along with Jonas and Sarah, went to her, where they forcibly took back a [[I hAtE tHeSe PeOpLe|brainwashed]] Bree.
 
 
==A Summer Without Bree==
 
A short while later, Jonas was convinced the old Bree had come back. Daniel, however, was still wary and felt that Jonas was [[Taking Advantage of Her|taking advantage of her brainwashed situation]]. Bree fled from TAAG the morning after [[HOLY SH%T!!!|sleeping with Jonas]], and Daniel, for a short time, appeared to become [[Mr. Park Ranger|more interested in Sarah]] than recovering Bree.
 
 
Daniel's interest in Bree picked up again when she began posting HoO [[FOLLOW YOUR HAPPINESS|videos]], where there was found to be secret messages encrypted by Bree and someone behind the scenes whose initals seemed to be [[TCC]]. Daniel and Sarah went to find information based on these secret codes and were led to a yacht club where they found reports and papers from [[Isaac Gilman]], however, Sarah [[All Wet|accidentally dropped]] an important document in the water. After becoming aware of [[Spencer]] Gilman, Isaacs son, they began asking him for help. At first, Spencer was [[What Up Blogosphere!|not interested in helping]], but after receiving a letter from his [[Isaac Gilman|father]] he decided it was the right thing to do. After being [[Hope He's Not Mad|accosted in the parking lot]] by TAAG, Spencer went to work studying his fathers papers.
 
 
After receiving a mysterious [[Deep Throat|text message]], Daniel went alone to meet whoever sent it, there, Daniel was told by who he referred to as [[Deep Throat]] the Ceremony would be in less than a month. With this information, and the help of fans in deciphering Isaac's water damaged letter, they made a [[We Have A Plan|plan]] to get blood from a trait positive girl and make the serum. After training [[Mission Alpha|Jonas]], [[Mission Beta|Daniel]], and [[Mission Gamma|Taylor]], Spencer announced they were ready. TAAG set out to the [[Wyman Foundation]]. The [[Mission Possible|mission]] was a success and TCC was revealed to be [[Alex]]. After her help, Alex [[Proceed with Caution|told them]] she would be disappearing for a while and gave us more information on the Order, [[Shadow|Shadows]], and Watchers. While in the midst creating the serum to save Bree, the makeshift lab Spencer and Taylor were working in was [[They Broke In!!!|broken in to]] and their notes were destroyed, and Daniel suggested they get out of there.
 
 
[[Image:0255-DanielSarahJonasEmotionalSunsetAtTheBeach.jpg|thumb|Coping with Bree's death.]]
 
At the beginning of the [[12 in 12|season finale]], Daniel told us that he [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 1 of 12 – 8 am|received information]] that the Ceremony would be held that day at 4pm. Although Sarah and Taylor protested and told the boys they did not want to go through with the rescue, they all went anyway and, once again with the help of fans, were [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 2 of 12 – 9 am|able to solve]] a voice mail sent to them by Deep Throat telling them to head to Santa Monica. While trying to get to Bree by 11 am [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 3 of 12 - 10 am|TAAG ran into]] a Watcher who chased them, ramming into their car and forcing them to crash and run for their lives. Sarah became [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 4 of 12 - 11 am|separated]] from the rest of the group, but [[Nikki Bower]] came to the [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 5 of 12 - 12 pm|rescue]] just in time. After their rescue, Daniel went and [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 6 of 12 - 1 pm|received information]] that the Ceremony was in the middle of nowhere. They also realized that their serum was broken in the crash and Sarah left to find the other vial. The information from Deep Throat [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 7 of 12 - 2 pm|led them]] to an abandoned hangar where they put the code they were given by Deep Throat into Spencer's phone and played it, thus [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 8 of 12 - 3 pm|opening a secret door.]] After going through the trap door and becoming completely lost, they were able to momentarily [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 8 of 12 - 3 pm|locate Bree]] but were attacked by a Shadow who stabbed Jonas and then was stabbed with the same knife by Daniel. While [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 9 of 12 – 4 pm|still waiting]] for Sarah and the serum, Taylor and a severely bleeding Jonas hid alone together until Daniel found them. Finally, Sarah, made it back to them with the serum in hand and with the remaining five members of TAAG [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 10 of 12 – 5 pm|together]], they were able to find Bree laying on a gurney unconscious.  However, they were too late.  As her heart monitor flat-lined, Daniel and Jonas collapsed in anguish.
 
 
After [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 11 of 12 – 6 pm|escaping]] from the location of the "Ceremony",  Daniel, Jonas, Taylor, and Sarah, went to a Santa Monica beach, where, amid much grieving, Daniel angrily lashed out at a nearly comatose Jonas for sleeping with Bree. This video ended with Sarah shouting to Bree that she had "won" and Daniel was always hers. After their emotional time at the beach, Sarah and Taylor [[Lonelygirl15 Season Finale 12 of 12 – 7 pm|said they were leaving.]] Daniel and Jonas, however, received a voice mail from Bree saying, among other things, that she had gone through with the Ceremony to save Daniel and Jonas.  She also left a message for each of them, telling Daniel'' "I want you to know how much your friendship means to me and always meant to me. In my mind you're even way more than just my friend.You're like...You're more like my most favorite best in the world brother, and I love you forever and ever and ever..."''
 
 
==After Bree's Death==
 
[[Image:0272 DanielAndMelody.jpg|thumb|left|New lady love.]]
 
Like many of the main characters, Daniel had returned home after the events of the season finale, and said that he [[My Parents Suck Too|would no longer be vlogging]]. After opening [[The Email|Bree's email]], however, Daniel did start to vlog again.  He found out that Jonas and [[Emma|his sister]] were in need of assistance, once again began to [[Home Invasion|fight]] the Order. They went on the road again, only this time with Emma in tow.  They made their way to [[Grand Canyon|Arizona]], where they were accosted by the Order, and reunited with Sarah.
 
 
After Jonas [[Watch Your Back|gave Emma to LaRezisto]], the three went back [[The rented house|home]] and began trying to locate Emma. Shortly thereafter, [[Sonia]] [[Tailgating|showed up]] at their door offering her assistance in fighting the Order.  At her urging, TAAG [[They'll Do Anything|attempted to locate]] a [[Ceremony Baby|baby]] who was qued up to complete the Ceremony in about 15 years. After saving the baby, they refocused their energies on rescuing Emma.
 
 
[[Mallory]] [[A Woman's Touch|used "questionable tactics"]] to secretly get information from [[Chris]].  However, this upset Daniel, who was jealous to see his girlfriend kiss another man.  Regardless, he followed her lead and posted a video in which he [[What's Going on?|followed]] Chris to a meeting.  During said meeting, it was revealed that the [[Hymn Of One|HoO]] had created a partnership between themselves, [[Verdus Pharmaceuticals]], and the [[Wyman Foundation]].
 
 
A few days later, Daniel found that the community had solved Emma's code, and thus her location. He and the others broke into [[Pleasant Manor]], only to be [[Is This The End?|surrounded and trapped]]. After a well-timed intervention by [[Virgil]] the Watcher, they were able to [[What Happened?|get Emma to safety]], forcing Daniel back into the harsh reality of normal life: He was  [[School's Out|out of film class]], ''again''. Lucky for him, [[School’s In|Mallory saved him]] - ''again''. Although after being accepted back into class, Daniel [[Gay or Not?|appeared]] to be leading a normal life again, he found himself on another [[Abducted?!|stakeout]] in which he, Jonas, and Sarah, followed a truck from the [[Lullaby Project]] and Sarah and Jonas disappeared, leading Daniel to believe they were abducted. Days [[They're Gone|later]] the two were still missing, and Daniel became increasingly worried. Daniel became slightly glum due to Sarah and Jonas's disappearance and Mallory's increasing absence, and made a video [[Missing Friends|reminiscing]] about his old life and friends, [[Paul]] and [[Andrea]]. Continuing his trip down [[Drunk By Bedtime|memory lane]], Daniel showed us his childhood pictures. After realizing the flak Jonas was catching for [[DANGEROUS DESERT|leaving Sarah]] in the desert, Daniel came to his [[Jonas Cares|defense]], telling us that Jonas did care about Sarah and that he was busy getting information from the mysterious [[Dr. Calvin Hart]].
 
 
After not posting a video in several days, Daniel gave us an [[Conjugal Visit|update]] telling us he had been hard at work on his script for film class and that it was going great, and that he was planning to take a break and visit Mallory, he also confronted the speculations of Mallory's relationship with Professor DelMundo, telling us that he did not believe that she was cheating. The next day, Daniel went to the building Mallory was working at to surprise her with pink roses, however, he [[Hot for Teacher|saw]] Mallory and DelMundo kissing on the balcony. Although he initially yelled to Mallory, getting her attention, he did not wait for her to come down and left, saying he was going to post the video and show everyone.
 
 
The day after, with very little mention of Mallory, Daniel was back to fighting the Order, taking Jonas, Emma, and Dr. Hart to the Verdus building to run tests on Emma, [[Germ Warfare Attack|barely escaping]]  the guards. After seeing Mallory's [[I'll Do Whatever It Takes|video plea]] to take her back, Daniel immediately [[Rebound Action|attempted]] to contact Sarah at the Lullaby Project with no success. Although Mallory continued to attempt contact with Daniel, he continued to ignore her and make [[Tired of B*tches|pleas]] to [[Jennie]] that if she knew where Sarah was to please help him. Daniel, Jonas, and Emma later [[Party Crashers|teamed up]] with Jennie, as she led them to the Lullaby Project to rescue Sarah from the Hymn of One. After the team [[Splitting Up|split up]], Daniel was alone with Sarah, [[Bus-ted|on their way back to California]]. After some initial fighting, the two made it back to [[the rented house]], and Daniel [[The Kiss-Off|thanked the community]] for spotting that Mallory's [[Being Stalked]] video was fake, and told her it's over once and for all.
 
 
==Saving Emma==
 
[[Image:0394-DanielAsAClown.JPG|thumb|right|The Beast, [[Looking For A Date|B&E-ing]] in style]]
 
When everything with Sarah and Mallory was settled, Daniel turned his mind back to rescuing Emma with a series of activities that were hardly within the boundaries of law: [[Looking For A Date|Breaking into Verdus Pharmaceuticals's offices]], soliciting computer crimes by encouraging people to hack [[Ted McKinley]]'s match.com account, and finally, breaking and entering ''again'', this time [[Am I A Criminal?|into Ted McKinley's apartment]], and in coincidence with [[Ted McKinley Memo|theft]]. In between his illegal activities, Daniel tried to [[Stay Strong|support Jennie morally]] and did some information sighting and gathering work on Verdus, Dr. Hart and their backgrounds, finding, among other things, [[Lost & Found|Verdus's financial supporters]]. The memo he stole from Ted McKinley also proved valuable in finding Verdus Pharmaceuticals's president's name.
 
 
After Jonas and Jennie met up with them back at home, Daniel left his intelligence work and returned to active duty, so to speak, first [[San Francisco Live Event|meeting the community in San Francisco]], then, having bugged Lucy's car at [[Too Dangerous!|the same event]], [[Bloodlines: Part 1|tracking her down]] to [[William Porter]]'s house, where Emma was held captive. Although they were originally supposed to meet up with [[Virgil]] there, Jonas and Daniel entered the house on their own (realizing only then the house was owned by Verdus's president), but were not successful in saving Emma. He was then one who [[Bloodlines: Part 2|went into William Porter's house block]] and faced Dr. Hart, but, while meeting Emma in person, only returned with [[Gina]]. It was later [[She Lost A Lot Of Blood|revealed]] that Daniel was told that Dr. Hart and Emma had a plan to [[Bloodlines: Part 4|poison]] William Porter. After Emma's rescue, the gang took Gina with them to hide.
 
 
==Life with Gina==
 
Once in hiding, tensions began to run [[4 Girls, 2 Guys|high]], as the girls outnumbered the boys. Daniel claimed that he could see much of Bree in Gina, but Jonas was doubtful and Sarah was indifferent. While Jennie [[A Woman's World|fought]] Jonas about Emma's choices, Daniel and Sarah began to become [[Playing With Wood|closer again.]] After Emma's choice to [[I Love You All|leave]] TAAG and rejoin her parents, Jonas [[Things Fall Apart|flipped out]] on Jennie, but Gina revealed that she was the one who gave Emma the money to leave. Daniel began to become closer to Gina, helping her with her first [[I've Never Done This Before|blog]], but angering her because of his inquisitiveness about her drawings. Because tension was at it's highest at that point, Daniel decided to buy [[inebriated|beer]] for everyone. While Daniel stayed sober, the rest [[Hot Tubbing|partied]]. The next morning, Daniel was the only one feeling [[Hangover Hell|fine]] while the others were completely exhausted. On this morning, Jonas found that Sarah had posted Gina's drawings and Daniel recognized one of the drawings as [[Bree's parents|Bree's mom.]] Daniel and Gina got even closer when Daniel [[Babe in the Woods|questioned]] her about the portrait of Bree's mom, to which she could only reply that she could only see a face. The whole gang had to once again [[Born to Run|relocate]] after seeing William Porter's [[Shadow]] in one of their videos.
 
Unable to agree with Jonas about whether or not to let Gina try to find Bree's mom, Daniel decided to stay behind with Sarah while Jonas and Jennie decided to take Gina with them to find her.

*One of Daniel's better skills is [[Breaking and Entering]].  He has shown this questionable talent when breaking into Lucy's apartment, into a local warehouse, into Alex's Mexican condo, a hospital in Texas, among others.  His response? "''It's all I know how to do really, I guess.''" ([[Lying Bastards]], April 4th, 2007)

==Etymology==
 
Daniel is a Biblical name from Hebrew (דניאל) meaning "God is my judge."  This is the name of the prophet whose story is told in the [[Bible|Book of Daniel]]. One of the stories tells how the prophet Daniel saw visions of supernatural "beasts". These comparisons have been drawn by LG15 fans because Daniel's username on YouTube/Revver, as well as his nickname in the videos is 'Danielbeast'.

Daniel a.k.a. Danielbeast or Beast is Bree's best friend, (on and off) love interest, and the co-star of the lonelygirl15 video series. Daniel was also the longest running character on lonelygirl15.

Background

Daniel first disclosed specific information about his parents in Drinking Problems, where he revealed that growing up, although they were not loud or abusive drunks, he was "violently ignored" by them. He also said that the bad times were when one of them would stop drinking, because the other one of them would get better and he would finally have a parent, but then, all the arguing would start again. At the time of this video he claimed they had been sober for two years, however, much later in the series, it was confirmed they had, at some point, began drinking again. His parents' alcoholism meant that Daniel spent more time with his grandmother, which he did until she died.

Daniel graduated from high school in June 2006 and had a graduation party which Bree was not allowed to attend. When summer began, he taught Bree how to make video blogs and was the one who set up her YouTube account.


Like many fans, Daniel began to investigate Bree's religion and decided to follow her around to record her actions, even after Bree had asked him not to do so. As Daniel investigated further, he became increasingly worried, and decided to break into Lucy's apartment to look for clues, where he found pictures of himself on her computer. He became worried and posted a video on the subject. His worries finally made sense to Bree, causing her to begin to question her religion. After an unsuccessful attempt to excuse her from the Ceremony, Bree's parents were taken away by the local Deacons, and Bree went on the run with Daniel. As a result, Daniel dropped out of junior college, where he was taking film classes, and he left his job at Gas 'n Eats to accompany Bree.

After Bree's untimely death Daniel, along with the new friends he had made along the way, continued the fight against the Order, vowing to avenge Bree's death.

The fight continues...


Notes

  • Throughout their traveling, Daniel has had a tendency to become inebriated (as noted in Uncle Dan, Vegas, Baby!, Spring Break Sucks, and Intervention). Before arriving in Texas however, Daniel claimed he was sober once more (Daniel's previous period of sobriety followed his rescue from the Order).
  • Daniel apparently has two cameras. One is a webcam that shoots videos in the standard 4:3 format. The other is a mini-DV handheld that shoots videos in the 16:9 letterbox format. This webcam can be seen in a mirror in the video What Did Daniel and Dad Talk About? and Jonas mentions receiving a tape from Daniel via Bree in the video "Your Decision." Interestingly, Jonas also appears to own both a 4:3 tethered webcam and a 16:9 handheld videocam.
  • One of Daniel's better skills is Breaking and Entering. He has shown this questionable talent when breaking into Lucy's apartment, into a local warehouse, into Alex's Mexican condo, a hospital in Texas, among others. His response? "It's all I know how to do really, I guess." (Lying Bastards, April 4th, 2007)
