Danny is a stretch of roadway who has long served as a home and haven for the strange, outcast and dispossessed. Danny possesses superpowers, including the ability to
teleport by integrating into a city's geography; roads and buildings simply make room for them. Danny does this mostly at night, when no one is looking. Danny travels the globe, and sometimes beyond, happily seeking out people and communities in need of shelter, safety and community. Thus, it is possible to turn a corner on the way to work, and find oneself walking down Danny's roadway.[

Danny's flamboyant personality and propensity for
cross-dressing is evidenced when they line their street with typically masculine stores (e.g. gun shops and sporting goods stores) decorated with frilly pink curtains and lace. Danny speaks by altering their form. For example, Danny communicates with signs in their windows, messages on typewriters, and with letters formed from manhole vapor or broken glass shards. Danny speaks English, heavily flavored with
Polari, a largely antiquated form of slang spoken among certain British subcultures, including some of the
LGBTQ community. "Bona to vada" ("Good to see you") is Danny's favorite way of greeting friends. Danny's personality is based, at least partially, on British drag performer
Danny La Rue. Danny is kind, compassionate, quick to joke and slow to anger. If pushed past their limits, however, they can even the score by manipulating their environment.
