Early history

Dan went to college, presumably studying audio engineering and archival studies, or some equivalent. At some point, he and his advisor catalogued the University’s Ethno-musicological archives. Before his archival job, he lived in Brooklyn with a room-mate, who "played 80's influenced synth-pop at 3 in the morning".

Season 1

Dan gets an archival job with what he believes to be The Housing Historical Committee of New York State, digitizing Archive 81, a collection of interviews from a high-rise apartment buildings from the mid 90s.

After opening The Visser Portal, Dan sends Mark all his recorded audio, and goes into hiding.

Season 2

After being in hiding for at least nine months, Dan is discovered and captured by LMG. During this time he listens to a few episodes of the podcast.

He is taken to The City and forcibly modified by Rat, and forced to work once again for LMG. During this time he connects with some of his coworkers, and helps them return home. After about 2 weeks in The City, he meets Melody, who attempts to send him home. Unfortunately he is stopped before he gets there, and while figuring out how to restore his previous body, Dromen puts him in an in-between space.

Season 3

Some time after March of 2017, after being trapped in an in-between space for somewhere between 5 and 14 months (on Earth, it is unclear if time runs the same for him), Dan is able to rework the ██████ Ritual to return home, complete with an apparently unmodified body. Melody has given him a list of errands to do when he gets home, and he seems to think he'll be able to contact her again. He intends to return to a normal life.
