KEY STORY RELATIONS
TOMUltimately, Tom was the first person to truly befriend Daniel, and more importantly, was the first to reach out to him and attempt familiarization. Their relationship started off as Daniel playing the straight man role, with Tom as the more playful, jovial half. With time and mutual hurdles, they adapted to each other, and Daniel grew because of their friendship.
Tom's visits after their journey were few and far between, and the next major time they spent together was when Daniel called for his help. Their relationship was damaged due to their conflicting stances involving Sabrina's plight, to the point where Tom lost hope in their relationship. Tom is yet to be seen in the second generation timeline, and thus last saw Daniel at his funeral. Prior to their falling out, they were highly casual around each other and much similar to brothers. They would often make casual jabs at each other and banter frequently, usually resulting in Daniel getting the last word in. |
SARA & SHAUN JACQUELINEDaniel bears a steadfast sense of negativity towards the Jacqueline siblings for what they did to Sabrina, and especially feels an all-consuming abhorrence towards (the twisted) Shaun.
Daniel has an unfailing distrust for the both of them; a knee-jerk instinct moulded from is past experience with them. He sees Shaun as a completely corrupt being, and Sara as an accessory to her brother's mental depravity. The siblings pushed Daniel to new mental and emotional extremes, and Shaun became the first living person who Daniel would ever see as unsalvageable. After having children with Sabrina, Daniel discovered Sara had also settled down into a normal life in Shaun's absence, but recognised she was no longer a threat. |
DUNESDaniel understands little about Dunes, and sees him as rather brutish and impulsive. While significantly deterred by his greed, Daniel is most of all disturbed by how Dunes' highly destructive mannerisms have no personal malice behind them.
While clearly feeling that something is amiss with Dunes, he has little idea about Dunes' true issues and context. Similar to Shaun and Sara, Daniel switches into a combat mindset due to force of habit whenever they meet. |
ODESIAOdesia served as an obstacle to Daniel and Sabrina several times in past, but Daniel mostly saw her as a complication rather than an enemy. While Odesia was a potential danger to Sabrina's existence, Daniel never developed a sense of hatred towards her, as Odesia never expressed malice or intention to harm Sabrina. He came into contact with her several times during the period where Daniel was trying to lift Sabrina's death curse, which mostly resulted in forcing Odesia back into dormancy.
After Sabrina's curse was lifted and Odesia began to occasionally reappear, it became clear that she was seeking involvement and personal life experience, which Daniel supported. Though Odesia is a complication to Daniel and Sabrina's relationship, he maintains the belief that Odesia requires basic rights of her own while sharing Sabrina's body. The two are sometimes abrasive towards each other (mostly because of Odesia's intolerance for some of his traits), but they have the ability to co-exist. However, Daniel views her as more of an extension of Sabrina rather than an individual. Unfairly to both female entities, he began to express affection towards Odesia as well. In the second timeframe of Sabrina and Daniel's story, Odesia is finally in a body of her own. When Daniel meets her and Floyd Bryson Daher by chance when travelling, he finally comes to realise that he wronged both girls, and expresses his remorse to both. |
OTHER RELATIONS
SORANEAlthough Sorane plays a rather minor role in Daniel's life affairs and has little personal involvement, Daniel regards him as a friend. His assistance, though not free, was enough for Daniel to see him as a comrade. In his eyes, Sorane was a small helping hand with a reliable attitude in times of need.
The two get along decently, and display equal consideration and good courtesy. While Daniel formally considers him to be a friend, it is more in the sense of being "allies" rather than having personal connection or socializing frequently. |
AZMMI VALENCIAAzmi and Daniel's personalities contrast by a fair mile, especially given that both are collectors. Daniel believes his perspective as a person to be significantly different to Azmi's, and therefore he mostly connects with him via shared experiences as collectors.
As his senior, both in age and as a more experienced collector, Daniel hopes to help lend Azmi his knowledge and prepare him for future conflicts as much as possible. On a social scale, the two have several major differences which produce misunderstandings. Typically the two are calm, open and on good terms. Daniel's sense of humour is mostly lost on Azmi, who fails to see the comedy in his jokes and ploys. |

ALEX & ROCHELLE DE LUNEDuring the time that Alex was developing his reversal cure for turned vampiric genes, Alex found himself in need of proper medical equipment to make his research a reality. In his covert endeavours, he encountered Daniel, who was a medical student at the time of their meeting. Upon learning Alex's true goals, Daniel offered aid and assistance wherever possible. Both being intellectuals, they found themselves rarely at a loss for something to discuss.
While differing largely in stances, their common ground and knowledge was enough to spawn mutual respect and interest. The two remained in touch after Daniel became an employed doctor, and after Alex had completed his cure. After some time, a joint dinner for their families was arranged. Daniel's first impression of Rochelle at this point was very positive; finding her general charm and brightness very settling next to Alex's personality. The two are a little less than formal with each other, and spend most of their time talking about scientific matters. The de Lunes and Radons occasionally have dinner at each other's houses, following a casual tradition of taking turns in hosting. |
