Character Analysis
(Avoiding Spoilers)
Overview… a street magician with ambition. J. Daniel Atlas is well known in the illusionist community. The fast-talking Daniel can dish out the trash talk and insults almost as well as he can do a magic trick. Charismatic and beguiling, he is the unofficial ringleader of the renegade magician’s group, The Four Horsemen.
Personality… arrogant, detached, and often cruel. Daniel sees himself as a genius. His colleagues in The Four Horsemen refer to him as a control-freak, an accusation that he doesn’t spend much energy defending. It’s never completely clear where Daniel is coming from. He plays his cards close to his vest and lives life according to his motto: “The closer you look, the less you see.”
