Biography

Background

Dan was a Leafmore High student. It is unknown exactly when he was kidnapped, but according to game documents, it can be understood that it happened not so long before Kenny Matthews.

Bald, battered and undernourished, he is reduced to a shadow of himself. He seems to have an fear of the experiments to which he is subjected to along with various tests. They have left indelible marks on his body. However, he proves willing to escape from his prison when he meets Kenny Matthews. He seems to know more of the underground prisoners, but their fate is unknown.

Leafmore Incident

Dan found in his cell by Kenny.

Dan is found by Kenny locked in a cell in the basement of Leafmore, shortly before the latter's abduction. Frightened and battered, he warns Kenny of the danger that run down there and urges him to flee, begging Kenny not to leave him.

Released from the cell, Dan retrieves a gun from a cabinet of Friedman's lab, but before they can take the exit corridor, the two are attacked by an ArbolTrebol escaping from a door, as well as several Mordeurs appear behind the two. The boys attempt to escape but the exit door was locked with a cage. Fighting hard, Kenny and Dan move it and get to the hallway, however, Dan is killed by an ArbolTrebol while they attempt to escape to the ladder.

Trivia

• Dan's T-shirt is a poster of the 1976 sexploitation women in prison film,  "Ilsa, Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks".
• Dan seems to be in the first step of the Mortifilia's transformation, proved by the fact of his likeness to the Infected Student.
• Dan doesn't actually have his own player files, and is instead just a skin for Stan (or perhaps Josh, it's not really clear since the boy's names are switched around in some of the files).
• It's never cleared the motivation for which Walden begins to investigate Friedman and the mysteries of Leafmore High. However it has been speculated that he was interested in the mysterious disappearances of students following the abduction of Dan, implying that he was actually his son.
