## History

***/ WARNING: SPOILERS /***
Principal Dan Takashima ran Doki Doki High School for some time. However, his school was running out of money, which made importing textbooks and computers and paying staffs much harder. One of his top students Koji came to him, revealed to him that he's working with a governmental scientific organization called FORAD Corporation and made an offer that FORAD Corporation will pay the school a lot of money if they test out the abilities of FORAD's supercomputer using a project Koji came up with called the *Club Hub Worlds* project, which is supposed to make school activities much more fun.

Principal Takashima was skeptical about this project but after enough persuasion including doubling the payment, he accepted the offer and Principal Takashima was enstated as a Sentinel of the Club Hub Worlds project so he could have some administrative control over the club worlds from the nexus dimension. However, he is not good at using these new abilities given to him and when the Gaming Club was attacked by the Belief Club President Kai, the school principal didn't know what to do and asked the rangers of FORAD's Cyber Network Security Force to deal with the rogued Club President. However, the Cyber Security Rangers were also infected followed by Principal Takashima when Kai attacked the nexus.

After being taken away by Kai, a datanoid back-up replaced Dan Takashima in the nexus dimension with memories before the event. When students come over the datanoid version of Dan Takashima when they apply for the Club Creation Program, rules and regulations are given to new Club Presidents and new pocket dimensions are auto-generated for these new clubs. However, should the newly made club not reach the following requirements such as having at least four club members within a time limit, the club will be disbanded and their club hub world will be deleted.

## Powers & Abilities

* Sentinel Privilege (the real Dan Takashima is currently limited while he's detached from the nexus)
	+ Auto-generate club hub worlds (programmed within the *Club Hub Worlds* superprogram by Koji when students apply to create a club)
