Skills and Abilities
Dan has been exceptionally trained by Andrea in a unique martial arts form (currently un-named). He can perform feats that most humans would struggle with, such as jumping great heights and distances. He can also (at least partially) control his physical pain, allowing him to be more deadly in combat. However, Dan holds back in physical confrontations, as his "true" skill could easily kill or at least heavily injure his target. Dan has a very high IQ, allowing him to quickly plan strategies and best opponents with higher strength than him. Before his martial arts training, Dan taught himself the ability to control and hide his damaged sanity, making him appear as though he is a normal person. If Dan were to go at least "temporarily" insane, he would not hold back in fights, which makes him one of the deadliest people on the planet. Additionally, despite having no training, Dan has a natural talent in sword-fighting, making him even more dangerous.

Extra Information

 * Although no-one knows this, Dan has a fictional version of Sclerosteosis, a genetic condition that makes the bones much tougher (although the real version and a form of it in YanderX has very deadly side-effects), which has aided in his training and combative skill. However, he has had no side-effects from the condition, as it has been altered from its real counterpart. To compensate, this version of the it is much rarer and a second form has been created that is closer to the real world version.


 * Dan is 1/8th Japanese.

Trivia

 * Andrea and Dan's training are directly inspired by Batman: Gotham Knight Episode 5 "Working Through Pain".
 * David had no idea of the Dark Horse Comics character also known as X when creating his version. Jack (YandereBoy55) and Dan (Herobrinedan) also have no knowledge that another creator had used the name X for a character. While only being pure co-incidence, the two do share common traits (being the lack of true feeling and tendency to kill, though the latter requires certain conditions to be met for the YanderX version)
 * Dan was originally meant to have mild supernatural abilities. However, since the only canon paranormal power/character is The Phantom Girl, this has been scrapped. When Yandere Simulator is released, a revised version of the YanderX series (or at least X: Volume One) may be released, containing the supernatural element if it is heavily featured in the game.
 * A throw-away idea conceived by Jack (YandereBoy55) was that Dan was actually a counterpart of the Dark Horse Comics character also known as 'X'.
 * Dan's personality and fighting skill are inspired by the following characters: Yandere-Kun (a gender-swap of Ayano Aishi), Batman, Light Yagami, and Eren Yeager (also spelled Jeager)


 * He may share traits with the "mysterious obstacle" student (an unknown Yandere Simulator character) in the future.
 * The Mysterious Obstacle will not be present in the YanderX main series, though may appear in Childhood.
