Bloody Mary - Detective Danson (Patreon)
Content
Alright folks! Here's our next new Bloody Mary supporting character- Detective Danson!
A veteran on the Vaudeville police force, Detective Danson has been the department's number one detective in homicide long before any other cops were ever considering joining the force. As such, he’s seen more than his fair share of unspeakable criminal activities enough to give anyone else nightmares. But just when he thought he’d seen it all, Bloody Mary and her villains popped up, and now homicide is up to their necks in strange new cases. Despite all this and being well into his golden years, Danson refuses to take a retirement even though he would love to spend more time with his daughter and grandkids out in the midwest. His reasons being that so long as he feels there’s still something he can do to bring the real psychos to justice, then he’ll keep fighting the good fight even if it kills him. Danson is the only one who sees that Bloody Mary is a teenager, and while he would prefer her not to be involved in this kinda work at her age, he realizes that she may be the force’s greatest and best weapon in combating the new kind of superhuman horrors that are plaguing the dark side of Vaudeville. As such, they work together in a Gordon/Batman partnership, and in doing so Bloody Mary has found a much needed father figure in Danson.
I figured since Bloody Mary faces a lot of murdering monsters and serial killers, she could benefit from having a homicide detective as an important part of her supporting cast of characters. So yeah, he's like her James Gordon, only without as much authority or power. But don't let that fool you- Danson is one of the best and most experienced detectives in the Vaudeville Police Department. And such he'll be working not just with Bloody Mary, but the city's other heroes such as Toonman and Slamazon! Design wise, Danson is based someone on Morgan Freeman's character from the classic horror movie "Seven". (Fitting, right?)
