In the year 2000, the infamous Flight 180 plane blew up and crashed after take off on its way to France. There were no survivors except for the five students and teacher who had left the plane after one of the students had a vision of the plane blowing up. In 2003, there was an accident on the freeway that caused a large number of deaths. However, even more deaths were prevented when by a woman about to head onto the freeway when she also saw a vision of the crash. The last reported case was in 2006, where yet again a woman saw a vision of a roller coaster at a high school carnival and saved several people from convincing them to get off. These all have something even greater in common... after these events, many of them were killed several months later in freak accidents. Even stranger, they all died in a specific order regarding how they would died in the original accident (with the second event reportedly going in reverse).
The reason? Death was tying up loose ends, trying to complete his list of deaths. There is a way to cheat this list though: if a person interferes in one's death, he will be skipped, and the next one on the list will be the next victim. There is one person who does this for a living, because he can see death. However, when he saves a person one day, he inadvertently kills one person because of it. Now, this "exchange" of lives will create a giant ripple that can affect more and more people. The more he interferes, the more damage he can cause... which may eventually result in him joining the list. Can he save these people permanently without risking any one else's life, including his own?

Right, now I want to try something interesting. With each impending death, I want to make a game out of it. Every time an impending death comes up for an RPer, I will make some clues evident. At the moment a death is imminent, I will give you the list of clues, involving the three W's: who it is, what's involved, and how it will kill someone. If they really are tremendously difficult, I will give one of the clues for free. Each person can make an individual guess. As long as ONE person get's all three right, the person will be spared. The FIRST TIME no one get's anything right for one of the deaths, I'll have the problem be automatically solved. The NEXT time no one gets anything right for one of the deaths, I'll give one of the more difficult hints right away. After that, it's either all or nothing. For the possible solutions, post them here in the OOC. Hopefully the idea catches your interest. Just an FYI, the first "possible death" is an exception, as it sets the chain of events in motion as described in the plot. So here's to hoping we can make a dark game out of this. Enjoy!

Personality: Daniel is not a cold person... just anti-social. As a man who is constantly trying to prevent deaths, he tries to keep a distance from people, as emotions may cause him to not think clearly when trying to figure out possible deaths. He is a kind person though despite this.
Bio: Daniel has been the odd man out most of his life. When in high school, no one really paid attention to him. They always considered him the odd kid. He didn't really care. He did alright when his brother was around. However, at the carnival instance at McKinley high in 2006, his brother got on the roller coaster that crash and kill over two dozen students. His life was a mess for several months. After that time, he began to see strange things as he walked around. Every now and then, he could see a shadowy figure following a person. He went to a psychiatrist, who convinced him that this death was manifesting itself in the form of these visions. Although he thought that he could get better, the amount of these "shadowy" encounters grew, until one day, he saw this figure pass over someone the moment of death. It was then that he realized he could see death. At first, he feared it. After some time, he began to grow obsessed with it, going into detail about the roller coast incident and others that were just like it. He then felt that it was his mission to save these possible victims. He would do it as often as he could. However, his latest target that he tries to save may create a problem that even he can't control...
