Danny Phantom - Intelligence Revision (Danny Fenton the foolish genius)

[LordGriffin1000]

I've finally gotten around to this and it's been a long time coming. As the title suggests,, this thread will be focusing on revising Danny's intelligence rating. Now while he's intelligence is explained to some degree, it's lacking a more depth explanation with scans/feats like the rest of his profile. Anyone who's seen my comments about Danny's intelligence in vs matches mainly see me talk about how overconfident, inexperienced or unskilled Danny is but I never talk about his actual good intelligence feats and thus would leave the impression that he's not smart. So below is a sandbox showing what Danny's new intelligence rating should look like in detail.

Danny's Intelligence

I have provided descriptions with scans and references that show why Danny's intelligence seems to change. To keep it short, his young age and overconfidence causes issues but it's directly stated and shown that characters know he's capable of achieving high marks if he actually tries, and his own feats speak for themselves with him being comparable to other geniuses like his parents and outsmarting other intelligent individuals. The sandbox provides a decent enough explanation and so in matches, Danny would start out likely overconfident or not too focused, but a serious Danny is actually a genius.

Everything explained in this sandbox only gives a maximum Genius rating. I don't see enough evidence for an Extraordinary Genius.

inventions at Fenton Works

It mentions him being comparable to his father who help build the inventions at Fenton Works which includes the Fenton Ghost Portal which creates a portal to a different dimension, among other things. Unless that somehow doesn't qualify as extraordinary genius anymore.

this should work

It's kind of funny that he says the Phantom family is a family of geniuses and then Danny gets a D on a test.

Those feats do qualify, but the problem lies with Danny never having been involved in the creation of any of those inventions and the comparison of him to his father is as close as you can get to a feat in that category. I believe that At least Genius, possibly/likely Extraordinary Genius at his best might work here.

Boy about to end his family's whole career as geniuses

Well he knows how all of them work so he has done he research on them but fair enough, I'll change it.

Yes, but knowing how something works =/= participating in its invention, its as if I said I know how a computer works so I automatically know how it is created.

I'll change it.

Sure, put me on agree then.

That's fair.

Looks good to me.

 

[UchihaSlayer96]

Looks great.

"Average, up to Genius, possibly Extraordinary Genius at his best"
I would personally change the "at his best" to "at his best showings", but the CRT seems fine, i agree

That's alright with me.

Alright, I've applied the update so I'll close this now.
