Daniel Becket

Daniel Thomas Becket is one of the main characters of Sharp Zero. His birthday is February 14th. He's 18 at the beginning of the comic. He's gay, autistic, and loves cats and scifi. He is currently dating Elliot Hong.

Early life
By the time he was 5 years old, Danny was showing signs of having inherited superpowers from his father, particularly the power of invisibility and the ability to shift (teleport).

5 years prior to the beginning of the comic, Danny's father sacrificed himself in order to protect Danny.

Work with the Vindicators
At 16, Danny joined the Vindicators as Blueshift, along with his brother Alex, who took on the mantle of Redshift. Danny only did recon missions, likely due to his power of invisibility and the fact that he was a minor.

On one mission he was caught by Steel Coyote, who badly injured Danny, leaving injuries across his back which would later become large scars, in a desire to "sign his work". Danny commented later that "I probably would've died if Alex hadn't gotten there in time." After the incident, Danny left the Vindicator hero team and no longer went by Blueshift or used his powers as a hero.

Powers

 * Invisibility
 * Super-speed
 * Long-range teleportation

He began showing signs of these powers at or before age 5 despite his father not getting his powers until he was a teenager. Based on the few examples given, Danny seems to have very good control over his powers despite his apparent discomfort with them, which may be related to him gaining them so young.
