so his name is Danielbeast. if beast has any relation to the undertones of this story, then the meaning of "beast" is Crowleyan or biblical or both.
in either case, the beast represents individual liberation.
Crowley= do what thou wilt, pursuit of enlightenment, satanism (which is not what most people assume).
Beast in the bible= Satan/ Lucifer (also is not what most people assume), known as the Morningstar and a kind of Prometheus encouraging free will and enlightenment.

the relevence of "Daniel", in this framework, eludes me so far. but Daniel in Hebrew means "the lord is my judge".
