Ghost In The Machine (Daniel’s Unique Powers)
I’m using @kennymayovo wonderful rendition of my final version of Daniel Masters for this post since I’m very much looking forward to him reaching this stage in his story! I will never stop gushing over it! As for the rest, I’m mainly just sharing an updated version of his list of powers from when I still had my roleplay discord server for Danny Phantom oc’s.
It’s really a shame Daniel never got a real chance to shine once I fixed some major characters flaws which I’ll admit were pretty crippling at first. But I’m glad I’ve gotten the chance to fix them in a full story setting at least!
Anyways, potential spoilers for “Ghost In The Machine” ahead so you’ve been warned! Read the rest down below if you dare! lolz! Note that some of these ideas might change in the future since I don’t want Daniel to become too overpowered, I just want him to eventually become capable enough to stand on equal footing with Danny and Vlad eventually.
Daniel’s Unique Powers
Name: Technopathy/Cyberkinesis (aka the ability to connect to and perceive the technology around him both physically and mentally)
Ability: Basically Daniel has all the same powers Technus has with some variations to his powers and exceptions since Daniel's different. So no giant robot bodies for him sadly, although he can create weapons and such.
Setback: His ghost powers are still weak so he has to rely on the boosts Vlad has given him until he gets a stable form of his own.
~
Name: Telekinesis
Ability: Since we actually see canon Danny use this ability once in “Boxed Up Fury” that’s why I decided to give the same ability to Daniel. Plus it makes a lot of sense given how much control he has over the digital world he inhabits which will eventually translate into reality with some of his powers.
Setback: Moving/stopping larger takes lots of concentration
P.S. Sorry the image quality is so bad, this happens so fast I had to split images from a gif to find the exact moment we see Danny use this power.
~
Name: Machine Summoning/Creation
Ability: This is for summoning things like turrets like what Valerie can do with her battle suit upgrade or other types of shields around himself. It’s very Tron-like visually although when Daniel does this it’s more like stars aligning.
Setback: His powers are more based on what he can do on his own thanks to his programming so Daniel powers are mainly related to him physically somehow so he can't summon anything he hasn't already taken control of through hacking or using his powers like Technus can. At least not at first. It’s more in his nature to fix things, not control or break them. He’d rather create something new anyway but this takes more time so Daniel doesn’t use this power for combat.
~
Name: Tech Overshadowing
Ability: This is pretty much the same thing Danny does in the game Doomed only for Daniel he can overshadow any electrical device like Technus too.
Setback: He can get kicked out of a device if it has some sort of anti-ghost firewall which is usually only a problem with GIW secret files or something or files Vlad doesn't want him accessing. It’s kind of strange the Fenton's don't really have anything like that.
~
Name: Electrokinesis
Ability: He can use electrical attacks and self-generate electricity which can really come in handy, Daniel can even use his own energy to recharge electric devices through a transfer.
Setback: This can be hard to control if he gets too emotional since lighting is hard to predict anyway.
~
Name: Touch Screen/Tablet Summoning
Ability: Daniel can create touch screen tablets out of his ecto-energy to make it easier to either share info or play back videos or his memories in a similar format. He can also summon holographic projections of those events or of himself to serve as a distraction similar to a duplicate only this is purely visual and can’t be touched or interacted with.
Setback: The tablets and screens have a limited range and will vanish after a while unless he creates an actual tangible device to carry around.
~
Name: Superhuman Intelligence
Ability: Daniel can access information from anywhere in the world through the internet as a whole as long as its not fire-walled against ghosts in which case he'd have to hack into it. He also learns a lot more quickly as a result and can recall any memory of information he has stored in his data banks.
Setback: Sometimes he repeats back too much information when Daniel gets "in the zone" so to speak as a side effect of originally being a program before a ghost. This can be a bit unsettling at times for Vlad especially since he’s afraid of Daniel losing his sense of self entirely when this happens, but in most cases it’s more like Daniel is focused on relaying the data back and not stumbling over his words.
~
Name: Data Manipulation
Ability: Aka he can hack into and change any files, documents, or codes he wants to almost instantly.
Setback: Just like the real Danny he hates cheating and only does this as a last resort or if there's an important reason to change information. This can also be very mentally taxing if the files or code are super complex or heavily encrypted.
~
Name: Tracking/Ghost GPS
Ability: He can track any electrical device provided it's still on and he can track ghost signatures too.
Setback: Daniel doesn't have a traditional ghost sense since he’s not a halfa like Vlad and Danny to start off with, so instead he uses his powers to scan for "possible threats" based on the energy readings of the ghost signals in the area which he can match to a profile if Vlad has one in his data banks. And when his programming alerts him to the presence of another ghost, Daniel can send a distress signal to Vlad. However, if there are too many ghosts around him at once it can be very confusing for him, like hearing nothing but white noise.
~
Name: Reverse Engineer
Ability: Daniel can recreate anything from memory as long as he has a digital blueprint.
Setback: This power is extremely time consuming and has limits.
~
Name: Datascape Creation
Ability: He can create his own digital world inside any computer as long as he has the right software to work with or create one inside his own mind once Daniel ends up with a physical body with nanobot technology and other cybernetic tech to stabilize and contain his code, aka his ghost core.
Setback: The dangers inside these virtual spaces can be lethal to anyone else who is brought inside, especially if something or someone is controlling Daniel via hacking which is always a risk.
~
Name: Nanobots
Ability: Daniel's unique DNA as self-aware AI turned ghost requires him to have some sort of technology fused to his "body" to integrate his program and one way this is done is through special nanobots in his ectoplasm which allows him to transform parts of his body into weapons as a trade off of not being a halfa like Danny but a hybrid between a program and a ghost, so like an actual ghost cyborg.
This also works as a healing factor to repair his body which depending on the point in his story is either a pure ghostly body or a clone body his consciousness was transferred into like an empty avatar since his ghost form is pretty weak on its own and still requires a lot of energy to maintain. And again, in either case Daniel needs some kind of technology fused into him to protect and regulate his cybernetic ghost core.
Setback: Having a low nanobot count is just like having low blood sugar and can make him especially weak. So Vlad has to make sure to increase the nanobot count in Daniel’s blood occasionally.
~
Name: Electromagnetic Manipulation
Ability: He can pull the classic ghost move of communicating to others through various electronic devices like the static on a TV or through a telephone.
Setback: This is a tricky method to use and not an easy one if he's not directly connected to or overshadowing said device, so this method is mainly used a last resort to try and reach out for help if he's unable to communicate with anyone otherwise.
~
Name: System Upgrade/Fix
Ability: He can upgrade/fix any device like Technus can
Setback: This ability is very draining and must be used sparingly depending on how advanced the tech is.
~
Name: Ecto-Energy Constructs
Ability: He can make more advanced ghost shields and such around himself or others using his electric based ghost energy.
Setback: Breaking the shields physically hurts him too since their an extension of his core energy crystallizing in the material world.

HoO BOI! Now that was a dishearteningly long hiatus 👀 But good news! My brother and I were finally able to move back out after 6 long months, the week before Christmas at that! It’s been such a whirlwind since then, recovering from the holidays and ensuring the new house meets all my tricky needs took longer than I’d have liked but goodness-
It feels good to be back 💖
Thank you all for being so patient with me, I’d regretfully fell into my “recovery mode” to deal with how consistently sick I was from the stress and effort of trying to move back out, which made the ordeal take oh so much longer- a vicious circle indeed @v@ But I got my Christmas Miracle and here I am!
I missed you guys so much ;C; 💖
The time off did give me a lot of time to think, and I realized I need to be lot kinder to myself in regards to my own expectations, I always want to give 110%, to my art and to each and every single person I talk to, to each one of you, but I have got to learn to accept that’s just going to drive me into the ground time and time again ‘cause I just don’t have it in me no matter how much I want it, my heart too big for my got dayum good- I can’t stand the idea of anyone feeling left out or forgotten but I force that to be the inevitable by pushing myself too far time and time again and crashing 9v9″
I try, try again, this time as OKKennyMay, ‘cause it’s good enough to just be Okay and I need to remind myself of that 😤

A Commission for a patron of mine, Vauvenal! (they’re probably on here too but their Tumblr I know not 👀)
OH mAN it's been so long since I've drawn pompous pep! It will always be my guilty pleasure ship, I cannot help but relate myself to Danny and lust after Vlad to this day 👀 Thankfully as I've aged so has my taste in ships UvO" I couldn't have been happier to receive this commission~ An older Danny and Vlad acting as guardians and raising a boy named Darren, with a whole bunch of specific and fun prompts?? SIGN ME UP! ( Below I've pasted the initial explanation they sent me, to set the scene for the prompts to help yah'll gain a better understanding of the commission to! It was so much fun to draw for~)
Now, who's Darren?
Darren is the result of a complicated AU story where Dan tries to essentially take over the world by making a clone army of himself. It involves time travel and multiple universes …. and at the end of it all you have this boy. He is essentially a fusion between the ghosts of a teenage version of Vlad and an adult version of Danny, a failed attempt at a Dan clone and a little-more-than-halfa.
The original Vlad and Danny (who by then is also an adult) save him from his timeline (and save the world because of course) and raise him as his guardians, adoptive parents, whatever you'd like to call it!
As complicated as his past is, he's pretty much just a teenager who also really enjoys videogames. Danny enables this, while Vlad is a bit reluctant

Ascendance of a Bookworm is the best isekai and i’ll fight anyone who says otherwise, but more so than that, I relate to her struggles greatly, to have a body and health that limits your ability to live yet to still strive for your dreams nonetheless, oh I tell yeah It just speaks to my soul! ;C;
I’ve been following the series a few years now, first when it premiered on crunchy roll and then through it’s original light novel series, which was the first for me in that regard but goodness was like tumbling down a hill, much like Myne ( I know, I know, but spoilers people, anime hasn’t caught up) I adore reading and it’s quite ironic that it was her series that introduced me to the wonderful world of light novels (❁´◡`❁) Cheeky little shit’s working in meta now, transform everyone into bookworms indeed 👀
I’ve pulled these sketches from the pits of last year but goodness I really gotta do more, the latest release be pOPPIN OFF

Oh my god, it IS you! I saw your Dalv.Co art a while back and thought "huh, that looks a LOT like the art from the Immortal Husbands AU". I wasn't totally sure, because hey, coincidences happen. I'm glad to see it is you though you're doing relatively okay, or at least better than you had been. I'm so glad to see you're back!
Heck yeah it is!! and Oh mAN Immortal Husbands AU, now that's one I haven't thought of for sometime!~
"relatively okay" is a great way of putting it :D It's just good to be back, even if it's not quite as much as I'd hoped 💖
