Daniel (Camp Camp)

"You seem impressed with what you've shown, but I don't find it that compelling. You've sung my praise but not your own and well, I think that's pretty telling. But while we're on the subject of how I'm superb and leagues above, you ought to know I'm number one. I know that may be hard to swallooow. This hurts you just as much as me. But when this song is sung you and I'll know that your just a nobody!"

- Daniel's song to David.

Daniel is the main antagonist of the Camp Camp second season premiere episode "Cult Camp".

History
Daniel is introduced when Gwen informs David on her hiring a new counselor. Surprisingly, Daniel starkly resembles David, except he is blonde and wears bleached clothes. Delighted that Daniel seemingly shares his characteristics, David enthusiastically hires him; as for Gwen, she decides to use her vacation days. As David goes to introduce Daniel to the campers, a newspaper heading reveals that Daniel had left his former campground dead.

Alone with the campers, Daniel asks them if any of them were interested in space. Daniel explains that negative emotions originated from space, having been left behind from the Big Bang. Since then, the Earth had been heavily doused in space radiation. When Neil questions him on his beliefs, Daniel also mentions how an evil alien overlord named Xemoog was over an organization known as the Galactic Confederacy. When David returns, Max and the others try to convince him that Daniel is a cult leader by showing that he was orchestrating an event at the mess hall known as the "Ascension Party." Daniel also had created a "purification sauna" in which he brainwashes the campers into becoming mindless followers. Neil and Nikki are brainwashed, and Max uses this opportunity to manipulate David into stopping Daniel.

Just before the children could drink the poisoned fruit punch, David engages Daniel to a song duel. During the duel, Daniel admits that he keeps up the camp charade so that he could sacrifice the campers to his alien god. Unfortunately for Daniel, he accidentally drinks some of the fruit punch during his confession, and he collapses. The episode ends with Daniel being driven away by an ambulance, and Gwen returning with a new applicant who resembles her.
