List of Danny Phantom characters

This is a list of cartoon characters from the Nickelodeon animated television series Danny Phantom.

Contents

The series centers on young Danny Fenton and his coming-of-age story as a half-ghost superhero in the town of Amity Park. He gradually grows, bettering himself and his powers over the course of the story as he deals with ghosts, balancing his normal and heroic life, a community that does not initially trust him, and later, fame and praise from across the country.

His companions are his three best friends: Sam Manson, a goth girl who is entranced by the "weird and supernatural",T ucker Foley, a lighthearted "techno-geek", and Jaret Delaney, an awkward and disturbed college dropout. Danny often has to put up with his eccentric ghost-hunting parents, Jack and Maddie Fenton, and his smothering, doting, but compassionate older sister, Jazz Fenton. His primary nemesis is Vlad Masters, a billionaire celebrity who is also a half-ghost.

Ghost villains

  • Evil Danny (David Kaufmen) is Danny Fenton/Danny Phantom taken over by Freakshow in the episode "Control Freaks". He is very evil, mean, and rude, and he does whatever he wants, whenever he wants. he is a part of Freakshow's evil Crew and is controlled by Freakshow's Hypnotic red crystal ball until it breaks and falls apart. He is back to normal again later on as well as Freakshow's crew.
  • Recurring human characters

  • Mr. Lancer (Ron Perlman) is the vice-principal and English, Math, Science and Social Studies teacher of Casper High. He is a strict teacher who often favors the popular kids. Though he tends to pick on Danny because of his average grades and his lackluster interest in his job, Lancer is a well-meaning man who tries to make sure all his students do their best. He has a humorous habit of shouting out book titles when he is surprised. He also constantly tries to be "cool" by saying some rather tired "hip phrases". In the first two seasons, he acts very antagonistic, but in the third season he acts very serious and caring. He also used to be a male cheerleader when he attended Casper High.
  • Dash Baxter (S. Scott Bullock) is the most popular boy in Casper High School. A star football and basketball player, he often gets free leeway from the authorities at school due to his winning streak. However, Dash is an "idiot" who frequently picks on Danny. As an act of irony, his role model is Danny Phantom. His role in the series is similar to that of the Spider-Man character Flash Thompson. He makes a cameo in The Fairly OddParents episode, Fly Boy (voiced by Jason Marsden).
  • Paulina (Maria Canals-Barrera) is a Hispanic-American 15-year-old cheerleader and the most popular girl at Casper High School. She has big, beautiful eyes, confidence, an often devious side, and is viewed by Sam as rude and "not so bright". Paulina is madly in love with Danny Phantom after he saved her (frequently referring to him as "Inviso-Bill"), but could not care less for his alter ego, who has a huge crush on her for the first half of the series.
  • Kwan (Dat Phan, later James Sie) is an Asian-American football player and Dash's best friend. Though he is popular and bullies the lesser known students as much as Dash, Kwan is a bit more reluctant. He possibly only wanted popularity so that he can feel a sense of belonging.
  • Star (Grey DeLisle, later Tara Strong) is another popular girl in Casper High who is Paulina's best friend and also serves as her "satellite", constantly orbiting around her. She is maliciously blunt. She and Valerie are good friends.
  • Mikey (Dee Bradley Baker) is a small nerd in Casper High who is often the victim of the popular boys' bullying.
  • Nathan (Dee Bradley Baker) is another small nerd who is interested in Valerie.
  • Jeremy (S. Scott Bullock) and Pamela "Pam" Manson (Laraine Newman) are Sam's parents and the overall antithesis of their daughter, being a pair of super-optimistic socialites. They possess an enormous disdain of Sam's nonconformity and constantly try to steer her away from it. The Mansons have a rivalry with the Fenton parents.
  • Damon Gray (Phil Morris) is Valerie's father and faithful employee of Axion Labs until he was briefly fired. He is a calm, patient man who adores his daughter, but once he finds out about it, does not approve of her ghost fighting job.
  • Tiffany Snow (Tara Strong) is a reporter who remains cheery despite the often depressing news she delivers.
  • Lance Thunder (Dee Bradley Baker) is a weatherman who has reported about Ghosts several times. He constantly fidgets over his hair, and when he thinks he is off the air, argues with the fact that he has to be the one to report.
  • Principal Ishiyama (June Angela) is the principal of Casper High. She has a little bit of humor and is a little serious.
