Casper High

    Mr. Lancer 
Danny's grumpy homeroom teacher.

    Dash Baxter 
A popular football player who bullies Danny.
  • Abhorrent Admirer: He hits on Mandie while she is in her human disguise, but she considers him almost as bad as Brutis.
  • Asshole Victim: Danny can't really think of a reason why Mandie shouldn't beat Dash up other than he's human and not really a threat.
  • Attempted Homewrecker: He hits on Mandie whenever he can, especially when she’s on a date with Danny, but this just earns him her wrath and a beating.
  • Attention Whore: He's always seeking to be the center of attention in some way. He also can’t stand anyone, especially Danny, getting more attention from attractive girls than him.
  • Bad Liar: When Dash gets in trouble with the security guard at the aquarium for trying to attack Mandie, he tries to pin the blame on her, claiming she started it by threatening him and his friends. The guard doesn't believe a word of it since there's no way one young girl in a dress can take on three jocks at once.
  • Boisterous Weakling: He talks a big game but turns into a sniveling coward when confronted by actual threats like ghosts or people capable of fighting back like Mandie.
  • Book Dumb: He doesn’t do well in school and needs nerds like Mikey to do his schoolwork for him so he can pass and stay on the football team.
  • The Bully
  • Bullying a Dragon: His stubborn pride and shallow ego won't let him leave Mandie alone, no matter how much she threatens and hurts him.
  • Big Jerk on Campus: He's a star quarterback and the most popular guy at Casper High who likes picking on anyone he sees as weaker or less popular than him, especially Team Phantom.
  • Card-Carrying Jerkass: He knows he’s a bullying jerk and is proud of it.
  • Casanova Wannabe: His idea of flirting with Mandie is by harassing her and her boyfriend Danny as well as refusing to take “no” for an answer.
  • Crazy Jealous Guy: He’s a petty creep who can't stand any girl picking Danny over him, especially one as beautiful as Mandie/Mandy Hurtz.
  • Dirty Coward: He runs away from Mandie when she beats him up and only confronts her again when he has Dale and Kwan with him, only to flee again when threatened by security.
  • Dumb Blonde: Has blonde hair and is a total moron like Danny says he is.
  • Dumb Jock: He's a football star who Mandie and Team Phantom agree is a total moron.
  • Dumb Muscle: He’s very muscular and the dumbest guy at Casper High. In fact, he's just as much of a stupid oaf as Brutis, much to Mandie’s revulsion.
  • Entitled to Have You: As far as he's concerned, girls, especially pretty ones like Mandie, are supposed to choose HIM over Danny and not the other way around just because he's a popular jock.
  • Future Loser: He knows he's going to become this after high school, but it's mostly a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy because he's too lazy to change it; he doesn't even bother using his football skills to become a professional athlete.
  • Hates My Secret Identity: He practically worships Danny Phantom but hates Danny Fenton.
  • Hopeless Suitor: Doesn’t have a chance with Mandie because of his obnoxious and dimwitted personality, but refuses to accept it.
  • Inferiority Superiority Complex: Team Phantom and Mandie know he bullies others as some pathetic attempt to make himself feel big and important because he believes his life is going to go downhill after high school, so he uses that as an excuse to do whatever he wants until then.
  • In Love with Looks: He only hits on Mandie (who’s wearing her “Mandy Hurtz” Fake-i-fier human disguise) because of her beauty.
  • Insufferable Imbecile: Mandie finds him as unbearably moronic as Brutis.
  • It Amused Me: He takes great pleasure in tormenting anyone he sees as inferior to him for his own satisfaction, especially Danny and his friends.
  • It's All About Me: His ego can't stand getting beaten up by a girl or any girl picking Danny over him, especially one as beautiful as Katie.
  • Jerk Jock: He is a football player who enjoys bullying the other students, especially Danny.
  • Jerkass to One: He’s a total jerk in general but he treats Danny as his favorite punching bag since Dash likes to bully him more than anyone.
  • Lazy Bum: While athletic, he's too lazy to use his football skills to actually make something of himself after high school, to the point that he doesn't even want to become a professional football player.
  • Miles Gloriosus: He regularly acts like he's braver and more capable than he really is but is usually the first to flee from danger like a total coward.
  • Moral Myopia: As far as Dash is concerned, beating up people is okay when he’s dishing it out but when he’s on the receiving end courtesy of Mandie, it makes her a psycho.
  • Not Good with Rejection: His fragile ego does NOT take it well when Mandie rejects him.
  • Paper Tiger: He’s a muscular jock but crumples like wet paper when confronted by actual danger like ghosts or someone like Mandie who can and will beat him up since he turns into a useless Dirty Coward that’s of no help in a crisis.
  • Poor Man's Substitute: Danny and Mandie find him just as unbearably obnoxious and repulsive as Brutis but even less threatening since Dash is just a petty bully and not a warrior.
  • Popular Is Dumb: He’s a star quarterback and a total moron.
  • Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Everyone, especially Team Phantom, makes it clear it’s his own fault he’s going to become the Future Loser he dreads turning into since he goes out of his way to ruin his chances at ANY future by insisting on acting like a boorish meathead with no life outside of high school who doesn’t care about anything but bullying and enjoying his glory days.
  • Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: He’s the hotheaded and stubborn Manly Man to Kwan’s meek and emotional Sensitive Guy.
  • Shallow Cannot Comprehend True Love: It boggles his mind that a pretty girl like Mandie would hate his guts but adore Danny Fenton.
  • Small Name, Big Ego: He believes he's WAY more important than he really is because of his football skills and popularity so he calls himself "the king of Casper High". Mandie can instantly see that he's this trope as she recognizes his title is fake.
  • Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Dash can get away with bullying Danny at school because of favoritism but not in public places such as the aquarium, where a security guard throws him, Dale, and Kwan out for harassing Danny and Mandie on their date.
  • Suspiciously Similar Substitute: In-Universe, both Danny and Mandie notice that Dash is this to Brutis because of their identical personalities. However, Dash is even weaker and less threatening since he's just a petty bully with no training rather than a power-hungry, wannabe galactic alien conqueror.
  • Wasted Beauty: He's a handsome and muscular popular football player but girls are quickly repulsed when they realize how much of an oafish meathead he is. Mandie especially hates him for being too much like Brutis for her liking.
  • Would Hit a Girl: He prepares to hit Mandie at the aquarium as retaliation for insulting him, but is stopped and then forced to leave by security.

    Paulina Sanchez 
The most popular girl at Casper High who looks down on Danny and his friends. She has a crush on Danny Phantom.
  • Abhorrent Admirer: Danny admits to Mandie that Paulina became this to him when he realized how much of an awful person she is underneath her beauty. Her crush on his ghost self has also long since stopped being endearing as Danny now only finds it creepy and annoying because of how obsessed she is.
  • Alpha Bitch: She is the most popular girl at Casper High, as well as very mean and shallow.
  • Beauty Is Bad: Downplayed. She's very pretty and is a jerkass Spoiled Brat who lords her status over her classmates.
  • Brainless Beauty: Mandie and Team Phantom love to mock her for putting more value on looks than brains.
  • Bright Is Not Good: Wears a lot of pink and is an Alpha Bitch.
  • Loves My Alter Ego: Paulina is infatuated with Danny Phantom, being his self-proclaimed biggest fangirl, but is disgusted to even be associated with Danny Fenton. Deconstructed as this attitude only further convinces Danny that she’s not worth his time because her shallowness means she only likes him for his powers.
  • Loving a Shadow: Deconstructed as it became clear to Danny that Paulina only cared about his superhero side so he lost interest in her for being too shallow to like him for anything but his ghost powers.
  • Popular Is Dumb: She’s the queen bee of Casper High and a total airhead.
  • Shallow Cannot Comprehend True Love: She can’t fathom why a gorgeous girl like Mandie is with Danny Fenton.
  • Small Name, Big Ego: She thinks having a rich family and being “Queen of the A-Listers” make her royalty and Danny Phantom is the only guy that deserves her.
  • Spicy Latina: She’s Hispanic and very stubborn as well as short-tempered.
  • Wasted Beauty: Danny gave up on his own shallow crush on Paulina after realizing her looks were her only positive quality.

    Star 
Paulina's best friend.
  • Beauty Is Bad: Downplayed. She’s a very attractive girl but is a total jerk to anyone that isn’t popular.
  • Beta Bitch: She is described as being Paulina's "satellite" and is just as snobby as she is.
  • Dumb Blonde: Mandie and Team Phantom have a low opinion of her intelligence since she doesn’t act any smarter than Paulina.
  • Light Is Not Good: Downplayed as she is a blonde who wears white and orange clothes but is not evil, just really rude, snobby, and arrogant.
  • Popular Is Dumb: She’s one of the A-Listers and is just as much of a stuck-up airhead as Paulina.
  • Satellite Character: Mandie mocks her for being this since the only purpose Star serves is being Paulina’s “satellite”.
  • Shallow Cannot Comprehend True Love: Like Paulina, she doesn’t understand why a beautiful girl like Mandie is with Danny Fenton.
  • Wasted Beauty: She’s very pretty but her snobbiness makes her very unappealing.

     Kwan 
Dash's best friend and fellow jock who's also in the A-List.
  • Asian Airhead: He's of Asian descent and not very bright, but still not on Dash's level of stupidity, which is faint praise at best.
  • The Bully: Not as bad as Dash but he still picks on the less popular kids, especially Mikey.
  • Dumb Jock: Not on Dash’s level but he’s definitely far from the brightest person in the room.
  • Jerk Jock: Not as much of a jerk as Dash but definitely not a nice person either.
  • A Lighter Shade of Black: He’s not as rude, cruel, or arrogant as the other A-Listers, especially Dash and Paulina.

     Valerie Gray 
A former A-Lister and Danny's ex-girlfriend, they're still on good terms with each other.
  • Action Girl: She's a skilled athlete and dangerous ghost hunter.
  • Amicable Exes: Despite breaking up, she and Danny still consider each other friends.
  • Badass Normal: She has no ghost powers but relies on her athleticism and high-tech ghost-hunting weaponry.
  • Bully Turned Buddy: She went from a typical snobby rich girl to a good friend of Team Phantom.
  • Dark Action Girl: She's this whenever she fights Danny Phantom.
  • Reformed Bully: She became this after getting kicked out of the A-Listers and befriending Team Phantom, as they helped her shed the negative traits she had while hanging out with the popular kids.
