<b>Character Name:</b> Danielle Cage
<b>Character Journal:</b>
<b>Physical Description:</b> Danielle has the physique of a young woman who engages in regular physical activity. Danielle is 5'7, 135lbs. She has dark hair and light brown skin with dark brown eyes.
<b>Age:</b>23
<b>DOB:</b> 2-14-1989
<b>PB:</b>Kat Graham
<b>Character Location/Home: </b>Harlem, New York
<b>Alignment:</b>Hero
<b>Relatives:</b>Luke Cage (Father-living), Jessica Jones (mother-living), Daniel Rand (godfather-living), Doreen Green/Squirrel Girl (godmother, former nanny-living)
<b>Abilities: </b> Danielle is a practitioner of several martial arts forms that she has blended together to create a vicious and fluid fighting style that specializes in maximum damage output to take down an enemy.
The styles that she uses are:
Wing-Chun: Focused on redirection and deflection of external forces. Advanced Ability
Muay Thai Kickboxing: Focused on usage of the fists, elbows, knees and shins. Advanced ability.
Shaolin Style boxing/Snake style kung-fu: Sinuous and fluid style, Intermediate ability
American Boxing: Amateur ability. Use of simple jabs and hooks. She has mastered her father's version of the Dempsey Roll to devastating effect.
Danielle is in Olympic-level physical condition, possessing peak-human endurance, agility and strength for a woman of her age.
She possesses a low-level control of her personal chi. Currently, she's uses this ability to enhance her pain tolerance and endurance. As she commits to deeper training in her arts, other abilities will develop.
Personal Wealth: Danielle is independently wealthy due to her parents' smart investment of the money they received for selling the rights to cover her birth.
Danielle is a fluent speaker, writer and reader of English and Mandarin Chinese. She is conversation in Thai and Korean but cannot write or read either.
<b>Weaknesses and Flaws:</b> Danielle is human and is susceptible to normal human frailties such as illness and disease. She can be cut, stabbed and shot like a normal human being.
<b>Personality:</b> Danielle is a fun-loving young woman who is calm most of the time. She doesn't like obnoxious people or people who attack women. She learned about what Zebedian Killgrave did to her mother, and while her mother eventually recovered, Dani has come across many women who haven't. She genuinely wants to help people and has trouble refusing people who truly need help.
<b>Backstory:</b> Danielle Cage was born on February 14th, 1989 to Luke Cage and Jessica Jones. The pair married shortly after and Luke semi-retired from the superhero business to raise his daughter at Jessica's request. Luke and Jessica both agreed that they didn't want their daughter to be victimized later in life and set her to studying martial arts as soon as she was able. Luke started with boxing and her "Uncle" Danny began with kung-fu when she turned six years old.
When she turned sixteen, Danielle wanted to join the Young Avengers and she was a member of the reserve team for a few months. She became fast friends with Peggy Rogers, daughter of Captain America. She also had a crush on her older brother, Joe, but Joe didn't really notice her. When Peggy lost her leg during a training mission, Luke and Jessica rescinded their permission for her to be a part of the team. In time, they left New York for Detroit.
Dani's post-high school summer trip to Thailand turned into a three-year sojourn across most of Asia where she the martial arts further. She learned Muay Thai kickboxing and picked up Wing Chun as well. During this time, she realized her life's calling. She wanted to help others who'd been victimized rebuild their lives and defend themselves. It didn't take long for her to realize where she wanted to start: her birthplace of Harlem, New York.
Dani returned to the United States to sell her parents on the idea. They eventually relented and Dani is returning to New York to begin her life's work.
<b>Plans:</b> I'd like to see a bit more street-level action in the game. Dani is returning to Harlem to open a self-defense dojo for neighborhood kids and women and to clean up the neighborhood. This is going to be more of a marathon than a sprint, and I expect some alliances and misunderstandings with other New York heroes who show up in Harlem. Both require patience and understanding that she doesn't know she has.
She's also starting to focus more on the philosophical side of her teachings and enhancing her control over her chi. Eventually, I'd like to do a martial arts tournament that focuses upon the Immortal Weapons.
Dani also will be meeting up with her old friend Peggy, who she hasn't seen since her parents pulled her off the Young Avengers.
