Douglas Davenport

Douglas Davenport is the overall tetartagonist of the Disney XD series, Lab Rats and a minor protagonist in Lab Rats: Elite Force. 
==Biography==
===Background===
Douglas was born in the 1974 and the younger brother of Donald, the father of Adam, Bree, Chase, and Daniel, the brother-in-law of Tasha, and the uncle of Leo, and Naomi. As children, Douglas was often bullied by his older brother and underappreciated (as revealed when he tried connecting with Chase in "Avalanche"). Because he was often mocked by his brother, it turned Douglas into a bitter, anti-social scheming genius. Their parents' names were never given in the series. According to Douglas, he does not want his mother to know he was alive because she never stops calling him.
He attended college, and during this time, he was dating a robotics major Giselle Vickers. However, she broke up with him, causing Douglas to be heartbroken and one of the most worst days of his life. He later went to med school tostudy to be a doctor. However Douglas was dismissed for screaming too loudly when he saw the needles. Instead he went to cooking school some time in the 1990s. 
Donald and Douglas founded Davenport Industries in 1992, creating technology and sent androids on missions that were meant to perform things impossible for humans to do. However, Douglas found a way to infuse Bionics with the human nervous system, but it could cause whoever used them to glitch. He went behind his brother's back, genetically engineered four humans, Adam, Bree, Chase and Daniel, and gave them bionics. Douglas wanted to use them as cyber-soldiers of mass destruction, selling them to terrorists and dictators until Donald figured out what his brother was up to and promptly booteed him out of Davenport Industries any disowned him, taking Bree, Chase, and Adam and hiding them in a lab hbuiltey with hopes of raising them as Bionic heroes and use their powers fo good. Douglas only managed to get away with Daniel, who was a baby at the time, and faked his own death, leading everyone to believe he die including his parents and brother.
At some point, Douglas became partners with millionaire Victor Krane, who provided Douglas with money in exchange for Douglas to give him his research and bionically enhancing him. Back when he was evil, Douglas found a stray dog, Otis, and put bionics in him to heal the dog. Meanwhile, Krane did the same thing to Douglas as he had done to Donald years prior: going behind Douglas' back and genetically engineering at least one-hundred bionic soldiers and infuse them with Douglas' bionic research. However, he never thought anything by it. To have Adam, Bree and Chase back, he created Marcus and have him all the kids abilities and finally, Douglas could get revenge on his brother once and for all but found himself in immediate conflict with his step-nephew Leo Dooley, and soon the rest of his family.
===Season 1===
Douglas sends Marcus to infiltrate Donald's house, where his android son plants secret cameras in the lab to spy on the family. 
===Season 2===
Douglas gets Marcus to try and capture Adam, Bree and Chase and get rid of their brother, Leo, but Leo keeps on thwarting him. Upon discovering the boy had found out of his and Marcus' plans, Douglas deduces that Marcus let Leo get to close, deciding to take matters into his own hands. He abducted Donald and kept him imprisoned within his lair and lured Adam, Bree and Chase. There, he revealed his identity as their true creator and planned to put them under the Triton App and sends Marcus out to kill Leo, only for his android son to fail. The Lab Rats enter a duel with their android brother but Adam unleashes his Blast Wave ability, causing the lair to collapse and Douglas to escape in the chaos. 
Douglas resurfaces and offers to help Chase become just as strong as Adam and Bree after rescuing him from an avalanche. However, Chase reveals he only brought him down to the lab to trap him with the Cyroblaster only for Krane to later rescue Douglas, who steals his brother's money and destroys the lab with Donald and Leo inside, who escape.
===Season 3===
In "Sink or Swim," Douglas disguises himself as Donald and pretends to rescue the kids from getting arrested off the barge until Douglas reveals himself and catches the three kids by surprise by deactivating his cybernask and traps them in hoops that deactivate their abilities. Once again, Douglas captured Adam, Bree and Chase and reinstalled the Triton App on them and activates it after they escape. He gets the kids to attack their parents and their brother, however, Leo talks Chase out of it. After Chase defeats Adam and Bree, Douglas promises to fix the Triton App, and Krane tells him after he does that to destroy Adam, Bree, and Chase, though this does not sit well for him and lets Douglas rethink his position. 
He warns Leo about Krane and how they are no longer on the same page because Krane is trying to destroy the Lab Rats. Krane knows what Douglas was up to by warning Leo and cuts off his partnership with Douglas before knocking him out. However, Douglas survives and saves his children from Krane as he is about to kill them. He tries to kill the villain, but Donald, Tasha and Leo appear and Donald scares his brother off with his own blaster, threatening to end Douglas if he comes near their family again. He helps Donald fix Bree's chip after Leo comes to him because Donald cannot do it on his own. At first, the two brothers fight but learn to assess the situation and fix Bree. Douglas is happy to reconcile with Donald but his brother still kicks him out. However, Donald is convinced by his children to give Douglas a second chance, if he apologizes. 
Douglas does and is invited to live in their house for a while. After the bionic secret is exposed and FBI agents invade the house, Douglas and Leo escape to the school and team up with Perry, learning Krane is behind everything. Krane and Taylor wound and break Leo's arms, and Douglas gives Leo bionics to heal his arm. During the fight with Krane, they are reunited with the rest of their family. In the aftermath of Krane and Taylor's defeat, both Donald and Tasha find out that Douglas gave their son bionic. Subsequently, in "Armed and Dangerous," Douglas urges Leo to keep his arm a secret and agreed to train Leo with it before he gives the Lab Rats new abilities: Pressurized Lung Capacity for Adam, Invisibility to Bree, Laser Bo to Chase and Energy Transference to Leo. He helps fight in the Bionic War, but Donald is wounded, as Douglas blames himself for failing to protect him before Adam and Chase say it is no one's fault.
===Season 4===
Douglas found out Krane gave the students hidden abilities and the one student, Kate has the Commando App he originally gave Chase, and calls it Spikette while warning Bree and Chase not to wake her Commando App until he found a way to remove it. However, Chase activates Spikette against Douglas' warning and he sends Spike out after Spikette. When that fails, he creates a Commando App for Bree, under the name "Spikerella," who easily subdues Spikette. Douglas extracts Kate's chip and removes the Commando App and replaces it with a sonic scream.
==Personality ==
At the beginning of the series, Douglas' evilness was built on the fact that he used to be bullied by his brother, Donald and felt overshadowed by all of Donald's successes. Because of their poor relationship, Douglas became anti-social and distant, driven by his hatred and jealousy of his older brother. The poor treatment Douglas got is what led him to go behind Donald's back and create four bionic human children, Adam, Bree, Chase, and Daniel. Douglas came to hate his brother after Donald learned what his younger brother intended to do with the children and kicking his out of Davenport Industries and taking Adam, Bree, and Chase away from Douglas caused him to find ways to get revenge on Donald. Despite their differences Donald and Douglas were more alike than they realized: intelligent, but proud, egotistical, and arrogant, making their arguing ironic. Despite this, the two brothers could never learn to get along and Douglas would stop at nothing until he ruined his brother for taking his kids away from him. Douglas was once selfish and uncaring, such as using children as weapons, starting wars, and robbing old women and taking over a country no matter what the cost. Though he had a father/son relationship with Marcus, he didn't seem to care that Marcus would burn out before he was sixteen. He also had no qualms turning Adam, Bree, and Chase into bionic superhumans of mass destruction, selling them to the highest bidder, whether they be dictators or mad Men. He had no qualms with harming Leo when they were enemies, despite him only being fifteen years old, considering him a "nosy kid" who constantly gets in his way. Douglas later left Marcus for dead so he could ensure his own survival. Despite his negative traits when he was evil, there was still a lighter side to him, as there were times when his sense of humor would overshadow the seriousness in a room. Apart from being evil, Douglas still cared for his bionic children. He did what was best for his youngest creation, Daniel, by giving him up for a chance at a normal life and he did take on a stray dog, Otis, giving him bionics to save his life and he saved Chase from an avalanche (in this case, however, Douglas was attempting to manipulate Chase) and later protected the Lab Rats from Victor Krane saving their lives once. He obsessively loved his children, up to the point where he tracked their GPS chips. When he did capture Aram, Bree, and Chase in "Sink or Swim," he wanted to use them for scams but also develop a family connection with them, like making Mondays family game nights.
In most of his earlier appearances when encountering Donald, Douglas could be quite childish and acts like an immature younger brother trying to get back at his older brother. When they were reunited after fifteen years, Douglas and Donald first insulted each other by calling themselves by their embarrassing nicknames and they continued mocking each other.  He stole money from Donald and only blew up his brother's lab to get back at him for taking Adam, Bree, and Chase from him. Later, when Douglas was with both Leo and Chase, they called Douglas out on his rivalry with their father. In the latter's case, Douglas pointed out he just wanted to get back at Donald, Chase wondered when both were just going to grow up, Douglas shouted in anger that he would "grow up when [Donald] grows up."  Meanwhile in Leo's presence, after Douglas gloated Donald could not fix something he made (Bree's chip) and that [he won] again, Leo told him it was about Bree, and not about Douglas beating his brother. Apart from getting back at his brother through all these years, Douglas had to bury the hatchet for them to work together to fix Bree's chip. Eventually, the two moved past their petty grudge after Donald decided to give his brother a second chance. 
During his one last attempt to control Adam, Bree, and Chase, Douglas enjoyed using the kids to torment his family, reacting mostly like a five-year-old tormenting his older brother. He was driven to do this is stemmed out of his rivalry for his brother, and, it comes from the fact that both Douglas and Donald were arrogant and childish. However, Leo spoke through to Chase, much to Douglas's frustration, and he later told Adam to attack Chase, but not enough to damage him. After Chase override the Triton App from Adam and Bree and Krane made it clear that he wanted them destroyed once Douglas fixed the App, it was made clear that Douglas didn't want to hurt them and allowed Douglas to reminiscent on his past actions. Between his appearances, Douglas tried reconciling with his brother, kids and nephew, first by sending then friend requests, but they refused every time. Only Adam accepted it, as it appeared Douglas’s eldest son had begun to forgive him. When Douglas contacted them again, he was genuinely there to warn the family that Krane was a danger to them all. However, because Douglas tried killing Donald and his youngest son (Leo) and kidnapping Adam, Bree and Chase constantly, the family refused to trust him and didn't heed Douglas' warning. By this point, Douglas was afraid of Krane and turned to Leo because he was the first to figure out what Douglas and Marcus were up to. Unlike their previous encounter, Douglas spoke to Leo in a friendly manner, convincing his step-nephew that Krane was a serious threat. Subsequently, he saved Adam, Bree, and Chase when Krane was about to kill them and in return, Chase saved his biological father by throwing up his Force field to deflect Krane's attack on Douglas. The man would have succeeded in killing Krane had his brother returned shortly after rescuing his wife and son. Donald tossed Douglas out of the house and the younger Davenport left in defeat.
Afterward, Douglas went into hiding and kept his distance from the Davenports until Leo approached him for help to fix Bree's bionic chip after she destroyed it. He also came to Leo's defense when Donald yelled at his son for disobeying him, telling his brother to “lay off the kid” because Leo was just trying to help. The brothers began to pointlessly argue until they realized Bree's haywire abilities could potentially kill her and the two brothers solved the problem together. Afterwards, Donald chose to forgive Douglas from the past after Douglas apologizes for hurting the family, Douglas was invited to live with them for the time being. Since then, Douglas has been kinder and caring to his family, such as not bickering with his brother as much, giving the kids new bionic Abilities, such as Bree's invisibility, Chase's laser-Bo and giving Adam lung capacity and becoming close friends with Leo, such as enhancing his arm with bionics after it was crushed by a ceiling beam caused to land on him by Taylor, and finally had a chance at being a father towards his youngest son, Daniel. He no longer has his evil tendencies and helps anyone else, showing Douglas is a changed man. 
Douglas no longer has his evil tendencies and helps anyone else, showing Douglas is a changed man. However at times, he does have some of his destructive tendencies remaining on at least two occasions. In "You Posted What?!?" Douglas suggested to Leo that he could blow up the Lab again so they could escape from government agents until Leo came up with a better solution. This is also notable in "Mission Mania", where Douglas made inventions that caused the students harm, such as a bazooka loaded with pencils that could potentially harm someone or a lie detector chair that would spin violently if the subject was lying. Despite this, Douglas remained an anti-hero the rest of the series. He was reluctant to connect with Daniel due to past incidents with his own kids but the two formed a strong father & son relationship. He also cares about the well-being of the students that lived at the bionic Academy as he demanded that Giselle reveal where she was holding the kids hostage and threatened to kill her. When he learned Marcus was alive again, Douglas begged him to stop torturing Daniel and tried offering them to be a family again. However, Marcus refused and when he tried to kill Leo again, Douglas saw his android son was beyond reason and ended him by melting him.
== Abilities==
*Genius-Level Intellect: Much like Donald, Douglas is a genius of multiple fields; he is even smarter than Donald, creating technology such as short range teleportation, which Donald hadn't mastered yet. He also claimed and proved to be the better programmer. It was he who made Adam, Bree and Chase and gave them their bionics in the first place. He was also able to hack Eddy, Davenport Industries, and Donald's bank account all without being caught. Douglas has lots of intelligence on bionic abilities and he has shown capable of giving Chase his Laser Bo ability, Adam's Pressurized Lung Capacity, Bree ability to turn Invisible, and Leo's Energy Transference ability. Douglas even created a virus while thinking on his feet to fry all of Giselle's systems. However, he has trouble encrypting Victor Krane's software.
**Medical Knowledge: Douglas is savvy about medical treatments. For example is aware of common practices of how doctors deal with amnesic patients. However, the credibility of his knowledge is questionable as he never completed his doctorate, because he flunked out due to screaming at the sight of needles. However, he did show skill in repairing severely damaged limbs such as when he repaired Leo's arm after it was damaged.
**Excellent Strategist: Douglas is an accomplished strategist, able to come up with incredibly complex and brilliant plans quickly.
**Detective Skills: In "You Posted What?!?" it is shown Douglas does have detective skills, and made careful observations while trying to investigate the natural gas pipeline with Leo.
**Cooking: Douglas went to cooking school as a result he can cook very well. He can even cook street food, when he became a vendor while hiding from Krane and even Chase and Leo have commented on how well he made soup and chip dip.
**Piloting: Like his brother Donald, Douglas is a skilled at flying a helicopter. This was shown in Sink or Swim when he rescued Adam, Bree, and Chase while being disguised as his brother.
*Martial Arts: Just like Donald, Douglas is an accomplished fighter, able to take Donald on at an equal level. He claimed he was the better fighter of the two; however this was not proven, as their fight never reached a climax.
*Triton App: He can hack the bionic systems and takes control of the target, causes the victim's irises (colored part of the eye) to glow green. Can only affect the bionics circuits, not their human attributes, this weakness is exploited by Leo and Chase when the former broke the latter out of the Triton App's control (with guidance from Donald); however, Chase still fainted almost immediately after.
*Impressions: Douglas claims he does a killer Krane impression, and Douglas said he used to kill it at their dinner parties (before Krane threatened to kill him). When he pretended to be Krane while trying to get Taylor to remember how to deactivate a doomsday app, she hoped that if she was going to explode, she would take out Chase and Douglas. 
== Possessions==
==Relationships==
*Donald Davenport: Brother, rival and former enemy. Because of Donald's constant abuse towards him, Douglas grew to resent him and fifteen years after his disappearance, captured Donald, who was surprised to see his brother alive. Douglas grew terrified of his partner Victor Krane and genuinely warned Donald and the kids that Victor Krane was dangerous. The brothers worked together to recreate Bree's chip. Donald kicks Douglas out of the house yet again until the older brother acknowledges he was being a little hard on Douglas and allows him to stay at their home for a while. Despite reconciling, Donald and Douglas continue to fight, especially when it comes with dealing Adam, Bree, Chase and Leo's bionics. Despite this, the brothers have a healthy relationship, as Douglas was deeply concerned for his brother when he was sustained in critical condition because of Krane, feeling he should have protected him during the battle.
