Daniel Danssen

''Oh yeah? What’re you gonna do? Kill me?

Daniel Kenneth Danssen, more commonly known as Daniel Danssen, was the former President of Monarch ElectroDynamics, a subsidiary of the Heyerdahl Corporation. A hugely conceited and self-absorbed man, Danssen's pursuit of profit and personal advancement nearly led the Heyerdahl Corporation into ruin, resulting in his execution by Graff Heyerdahl himself.

History
Daniel Danssen was born on Ordon V, and rose through the ranks of the Heyerdahl Corporation, eventually becoming chief executive of Monarch ElectroDynamics. Concerned only with self-advancement, Danssen came to view Graff Heyerdahl as an obstacle to his ambitions, and began working with the New Order to increase his power and resources. He provided Heyerdahl Corporation technology to Arc Isha who used it to finalize the construction of the Narayanastra superweapon; Danssen soon developed an obsession with Lilith Heyerdahl, seeing her as both another potential conquest, as well as means to assert dominance over Graff Heyerdahl.

Danssen's actions did not go unnoticed and once Graff Heyerdahl became aware of Danssen's treasonous behaviour, he stormed the Monarch ElectroDynamics building, killing many of Danssen's men. Danssen fled in a customized JAGDTIGER Mech, but was finally defeated by Graff in the basement of the Holosystems Megacorp building after the latter poured over a million volts of electricity into his body, instantly killing him.
