==Characteristics==
===Appearance===
The doppelgängers were similar in appearance to Sir Dan. However, one took on an angelic aspect and the other a devilish one.
====Saintly Dan====
The Saintly Dan's armour and skin were golden. Two small angelic wings sprouted from his pauldrons. He had balding white hair and a moustache above his buck teeth. A halo was floating above his head. He was floating as well, and his hands were locked in prayer.
====Evil Dan====
The Evil Dan's armour and skin were red. Two small demonic wings sprouted from his pauldrons. He had two horns on his head. Two bushy white eyebrows sat atop his bulging yellow eyes. Below them was an uneven white moustache, and below it were his buck teeth. Unlike his saintly counterpart, this Dan did not float; instead, he stumbled unevenly from one foot to the other.
