#halfa

Danny is a Tomb Raider, One of his Ancestors was a Croft. Danny as a halfa can find extremely rare/lost historical artifacts and records. He gains fame as an Unparalleled Archaeologist, with multiple donations and discoveries to his name.

Now Danny doesn’t go by Fenton oh no, he goes by Croft. And just happens to have a Cousin by the name of Laura. They find out about each other when at Convention for lost civilizations in Gotham, because why not.

They end up teaming up to find proof of a civilization that worships Bats, used to Live in what is now known as Gotham City.

The kid who lost it all

So! The reason everyone in the Realms believes that Danny is a super old Ancient and not a Ghost Baby is because all the Halfa's that exist currently are Ancients.

The Reason? For a Halfa to be born, they must have died as a God.

Pandora is a Halfa. She was the Goddess of the Amazon's before she was killed by Ares.

Frostbite is a Halfa. He was the God of a Yeti Tribe, before their kind died to Climate Change.

Dorathea and Aragon are Halfa's. They were both Draconic Gods who ruled over a small Country before dying to a roaming band of Magical Adventurerers.

Undergrowth is a Halfa. He was a Druidic Plant God killed after bis forest was destroyed by a Fire.

Even Clockwork is a Halfa. He used to be known as the God Kronos.

But that leads to the question of, How Danny is a Halfa? He was just a normal Human when he died, not Divine in any way, or so he thought. So how did he become a Halfa?

Well, maybe he should start looking into who his Birth Parents were...

In the space between heartbeats, the living and the dead whisper to one another. Their words are not spoken but echoed — soft, strange, and eternal.

Scholars of the Realms call these echoes The Phantom Codex: a collection of verses carved into stone, scattered through time, each one a record of a soul that crossed the veil — human, ghost, or something caught in between.

No one remembers who first wrote them. Perhaps they wrote themselves.

What remains are fragments: prophecies, elegies, and songs of those who lived, died, and lingered. Legends born from the rift where green light meets shadow.

This is their archive. Their hymn. Their haunting.

— The first verse belongs to the boy who walks between.

The goober

Okay, but like... hear me out. I just finished watching Creature Commandos and am so hyped about this idea.

Let's say that Danny because he is half human, may get slightly more rights than other ghosts in the anti-ecto acts. Or maybe Jazz managed to publish enough papers on ghost psychology that they are no longer experimented on. Instead of being taken by the GiW, Danny could have ended up in the non-human prison and a part of the Creature Commando program.

Like Waller said, they aren't allowed to use human prisoners, but Danny is only half-human. They would totally use an OP powerhouse like Danny for government missions. They decided that they needed someone who could fly and had similar energy powers to Circe. So they pulled him out, maybe even from a GiW lab, to bring him there. (If he didn't get those rights after all. for extra angst factor)

They also used electricity to control the Commandos, something that Danny has a known weakness to. I could totally see him fitting in with the team and being pulled into it due to his powers and experiences. and I think he would be such a chaotic addition to the team.

They act very similar to lots of the ghosts he knows, and he would totally just hang out with them and ignore any threats or insults they throw at him cause he is used to it. He would also become such quick friends with GI, and he would totally respect Weasel and not really treat him like a dog.

Imagine:

---

Dr. Phos: I was atomized; my body disintegrated before my eyes, it was the most painful thing I ever experienced.

Danny: No way, you too!? We can be disintegration buddies. :0

Dr. Phos: Uh... Sure kid.

----

Danny also would just hang out with Phos and wouldn't care about touching him because, like, the radiation wouldn't affect him. And Danny is used to hanging around glowing green skeletons all the time in the GZ. Phos is no different to him. It might be sweet to see them interact.

Rick might be torn about the fact that they have a 14-—to 16-year-old with them. He might have concerns about recruiting kids into the military and might even think about his own son, who died fighting for his country. Danny doesn't really have a choice here. Especially since he seems so human, we could have an empathy moment with him.

Danny would also be such a good friend to Nina! OMG, she needs a really good friend. Danny would be so nice and understanding with her, and he wouldn't even really care about what she looks like.

With the ghosts in the zone, he's seen so many different people and personalities that he wouldn't bat an eyelash at anyone. And as someone who looks so human, it may be very eye-opening for them. especially if they see him being treated like a freak for being a ghost, maybe even more so than them because ghosts are declared "non-sentient" by the government.

He is also totally OP, and it would be so funny to see all of their reactions if he just like took down Circe or even then just turned intangible and avoided everything, shield to protect them from a blast, something.
