He also took advantage of the Wood Scouts' rivalry with Camp Campbell by leading them in annexing the camp – in fact, the Wood Scouts even state that they are aware that Daniel has tried to kill them in the past. He would've already had this skill prior to " Cult Camp" as well, given that he would've needed to draw in enough people to the cult compound whose entire mass murder he is responsible for. Despite its size and the passion behind his speech, he only successfully recruited 3 people, so it seems as though he can only effectively brainwash smaller groups at a time with his proclamations. He is also shown to be naturally charismatic and able to draw crowds easily, as he stood on a barrel and preached to the citizens of the town in his efforts to earn more recruits. Max successfully banked on this fact, telling Pikeman not to thank god for his defeat, but to "thank the fact that Daniel's an idiot." Despite showing suspicion in some of the things the big floating head was saying, he was blindly obedient to its orders and even fell to his knees while bowing. He completes each step of the way with a huge smile on his face and doesn't give it much thought when the "summoned" Xemüg tell him to drop everything and to journey to Antarctica and build a temple in his honor, to which Daniel merrily bids everyone farewell with the hope that Xemüg blesses their path. Unfortunately the Wi-Fi is terrible.ĭaniel is also extremely devoted to Xemüg, using his book on "Xemüg's Guide to Eternal Salvation - Kids Edition" to painstakingly follow its directions in summoning him. When he later returns to the camp and tries to pretend to be David by perfectly mirroring David's appearance and mannerisms, he boasts about this immunity to poison but also reveals he has developed lactose intolerance, which Max exploits to bring him down again.ĭavid tied up in the bomb shelter while Daniel is playing his role to murder Max.
However, his brashness and overconfidence is ultimately his undoing – going head to head with David, he made a grave mistake by absentmindedly ingesting the poisoned Kool-Aid in his pompous show.
This is later shown to be only a facade concocted to allow him to infiltrate Camp Campbell and subject its campers to "detoxification rituals" in order to help them "reach ascension." His actions at Camp Campbell (and at the unknown compound) show that Daniel is able to manipulate people with ease due to his charm, although his antics are easily discovered under a careful eye, as Max, Nikki, and Neil quickly discern Daniel's true motives. Upon being introduced, Max immediately takes note of Daniel's appearance and makes several comments on his "cult leader getup." His outfit consists of a white polo shirt with two pockets, white pants held up by a white belt and gold buckle, white socks with blue and orange lines, a white and grey watch on his right arm, and lastly, lace-up white shoes with black soles.ĭaniel's initial "happy-go-lucky" attitude is remarkably similar to David's, which causes David to invest a lot of trust in him almost immediately.
Daniel's appearance is identical to David's with the exception of having a much lighter color palette (platinum blond hair and light blue eyes) and more formal clothing.
