Summary Description: ** An English teacher with a wife that doesn't understand how to deal with him and a Daughter who is trying to figure out things for herself. **Personality: Daniel has calmed down from his younger years, He used to be one heck of Hellraiser in college, now he is trying get some peace at least in his life. *Bio: * Daniel has been through Hell and back throughout his life, growing wasn't easy for him: Daniel and his younger brother grew up in Belfast with Irish drunkard father with a bad temper that was heavily inclined to using his belt anytime the both of them screwed up on something and a Scottish mother who definitely earned a place in heaven for being sweet and patient as an angel; Granted, They weren't the best of children but they both turned out alright, even when his poor father suffered an accident that crippled his legs, that still didn't break his wrathful spirit, You'd think it be easy to outrun an Irishman in Wheelchair...Nope... Wheels only make him faster. Daniel was kicked out of the house by his dad, sending him off to college with these parting words, "Don't come back without a Degree in something, It'd be more than I ever fecking did!" his father said, Granted, These weren't the harshest words a father could say but they were the wisest he could ever think of that day...especially after only a pint. Daniel took these words to heart, so after several years, He obtained a degree in teaching which proved to be a decent living for the years afterward; Daniel's Father frankly loved it when his Daniel visited him... He had someone to pay his bar tab and be an example of what a good education is for to his younger brother.
Daniel, age 35, met a nice young, but a handful of hell-fire, girl named Julia who was about 15 younger than his own age, who led him into a deep dark spiral of drugs, alcohol and despair for the next of couple of years, Daniel's mind was so screwed up, he could barely think straight, much less even teach until his parents paid a visit...Still, You can't outrun a 62 year-old sober Irishman in a wheelchair, There's no escape from that man. Daniel got his life straightened out the couple years afterward until he found out one afternoon that Julia had missed her period:Normally, Some men make the decision to run out in this scenario, Daniel had a better idea, He proposed the minute she said that she was pregnant...Now if you're asking, did he have a wedding ring on him? I would like to reiterate that his mother is sweet as an Angel and sometimes Mothers have the right idea about potential brides-to-be.
After his Daughter, Kelsey, was born, Daniel and Julia moved to America; hoping to find a better opportunity for his family. He and his family ended up in Grant's Pass, Oregon, by accident by boarding the wrong train in Houston, Texas, but luck was on his side this time, apparently, a local High School was looking for a new English Teacher and Daniel has been Teaching at Grant's Pass High School ever since.
Family: A lot of Daniel's Relatives live back in Ireland, His father died a few years back after he left for the United States, but It wasn't from Liver Disease, He suffered a series of unfortunate incidents that happened over a course of a month, The Reaper was determined to get that man, his father had been set on fire, nearly drowned, stabbed, shot, bludgeoned, impaled and poisoned yet the thing that got him was a heart attack in his sleep...Now one has to ask, how does a man who hasn't any family history of heart problems have heart attack when he is resting in his sleep, what was he doing before he went sleep?
