Dr. Dan Thompson

Dan Thompson, also known as Dr. Dan Thompson, is one of the two main protagonists (alongside Taj Borg) of the Taj Adventures series. 
== Appearance ==
Dan's appearance is the normal science wear. Dan has a long white trenchcoat, black pants and high-tech shoes. Dan sometimes wears a headband for some reason. Also, Dan used to look alot like Taj until Luni, The Creator of Gacha Life decided to update Super Dan to give Dan a more unique design. Dan also can sometimes spontaneously grow a mustache.
== Personality ==
He is an idiotic Italian Scientist, the best friend of Taj Borg, the abusive older twin brother of Quinn Gray, the avatar of Taj Borg, Jace Hamilton, Tasha Swan and the Taj Adventures Universe, the designated hero (a loose term, albeit not originally) of Green Hill, The former love interest of Holly, and the co-leader of Taj's Gang. Dan is an immensely dumb, narcissistic and trouble-making person, befitting the comedic nature of the series. Despite his good intentions, his selfish and stupid behaviour often antagonises and ruins people's lives. Yet when things are at their absolute worst, Dan proves capable of even an ounce of selflessness and compassion. He cares very deeply about his friends, especially his best friends, and his brother Quinn Gray.
== Criminal Record ==
* Animal Abuse: In Taj Adventures Stories: Christian Gets Swooped By A Bird, Dan along with Christian assaulted a bird to get payback on it for swooping Christian.
* Child Abuse: In Taj Adventures Stories: The Child Awakens, In order to wake up Sky from her slumber, Dan used an array of weapons on her, Including: A Baseball Bat, A Diamond Pickaxe, A Grenade and A Chainsaw, Not to mention he also picked her up and shook her.
* Tax Evasion: At the end of Taj Adventures Stories: The Child Awakens, Dan originally used his one wish to make National Spaghetti Day a thing, When no one said anything he changed his choice to make it so that there would be No More Taxes.

== Powers and Abilities ==
Although initially not appearing quite strong at first sight, Dan is actually very powerful, being capable of destroying the entire world. However, he rarely shows his true power levels, which is why he has easily been beaten up by a number of powerful characters. He can easily be considered the most powerful character in the Taj Adventures series despite not often showing it, but will when he wants to.
The official Taj Adventures character tier list has Dan ranked in the B-tier, one space behind Quinn, implying Quinn may potentially be stronger than his brother.
== Strengths ==
Although Dan's abilities and physical strength throughout the Taj Adventures series are inconsistent (primarily depicting him as one of the strongest characters in the older videos but often portrays him as almost useless in most of the newer videos, although the opposite is occasionally true). This is a list of abilities he has shown.
== Trivia ==
