Information

Role: Professor of Embodies Magicks (Gym teacher), Wizard Staff Tutor (head coach)
Desire: A sense of peace with the world
  • Dynadan was able to free himself from the paralysis of doubt by giving up on most of his goals in life. All that is left for him really is a desire to just... be. To feel he is where he is supposed to be.
Backstory: Dynadan “Danny” Mather was a star athlete when he was a student: Captain of wizard staff team, and a starting forward on the salamander polo team. When the Morrigans first presented as a threat, he was one of the first to stand to oppose them… and one of the first they struck down. At the beginning of the first fight, he was dropped with a spell that literally paralyzed him with fear and insecurity. He recovered enough to help The Saviors by the final conflict, but the Danny everyone once knew was gone. Dynadan was now a man without hope nor fear, prone to bouts of fatalism.

Over the last five years or so, he’s increasingly taken control of his own life. There was an opening for wizard staff coach, and to his surprise, he both applied to it and got it. Unlike many of the Saviors, his “celebrity” is a bit ironic, as his name became synonymous for a time with a failure to realize one’s potential.

  • Relationships:

Althea is the only person who knows of Danny’s unrequited love of Erik before he passed. Because she knows, Danny avoids her and doesn’t trust her.

Danny was always there to cheer Edmonds up when he got into a dark spell, and Edmonds returned the favour a bit while Danny slowly recovered. Danny’s fatalism has the effect of him not blaming the diviner for letting that fight unfold the way it had to.

Forrest and Danny were friendly when Danny was a star athlete, but Forrest has avoided the broken coach since. Danny has given up on Forrest.

Danny thinks Ethel should be more proud, and Ethel dislikes that Danny teaches teenage boys how to hit each other with glowing sticks.
