Danielle Scott

Danielle Scott is a minor character in ECKVA.

History
Danielle Scott was the former president and director of programming for Clear Lakes Communications. She was initially brought in as a last ditch effort to save the company from financial ruin, but was unable to do so as ratings began to stagnate and fall.

After Clear Lakes Communications was bought out by ECKVA Network, she was given the position of head of the archive department, and was tasked with digitizing ECKVA's archive department to help with their immanent relocation, as a part of the company's paperless initiative. During this process, three older workstations were uncovered in the basement storage rooms; two had water damage, and one was an older but functional test machine. Due to his impressive logging efforts, Danielle offered Andrew Raymond the opportunity to work on archiving the material stored within the test machine ARKlistener, which he accepted.

Over the next several months, the two worked together to archive the information found in and about ARKlistener. One of the things that Andrew found was a file called BLOT.xml, which he sent to Danielle after it crashed both the virtual and test machines. During this time, Andrew raised the possibility of hiring another member for the archive team named Shelby Hawkins, so that productivity would not be lost; impressed by Shelby's interview, she offered them a job, and they were hired.

After an unspecified amount of time, Danielle became sick with an unnamed illness, which required her to be out of the office for two days. She put Andrew in charge of the department in her absence. Her email to the team detailing this was seemingly interrupted by unrelated thought--it was a break in her normal typing style, and suggested that something had potentially happened to her. Her attitude shifted after her return; she expressed disappointment at Andrew for investigating the ARKlistener system, saying that she directed him not to. She offered to response when he pointed out that she gave no such direction, and instead asked him to archive the entire system at his own pace. After an ink cartridge unexpectedly exploded, Andrew explained to her that he didn't know what caused it; however, she believed that he was deliberately printing something, despite him having previously clarified that he did not. She also saw a face in the ink blot that Andrew had missed, asking him if he knew who it was. When he expressed confusion, she did not respond.

After some time, Shelby grew close to completion with her current workload, and attempted to email Danielle to get another assignment; however, she never replied. They then turned to Andrew, who assigned her a randomly generated batch, which included information on ARKlistener. Danielle appeared to grow very upset with Andrew over this, emailing him and sending him a message as soon as she was emailed by Shelby about it. She claimed that he intentionally included ARKlistener, despite his clarification that the batches were randomly generated. Despite this, she demanded to see him in her office with some urgency. Meanwhile, she emailed Shelby about an opportunity to help her and Andrew regarding a side project; this email included more broken, unintelligible writing at the end of it, similar to the email she made when she was out of the office due to the unspecified illness.

As of now, her fate is unclear. In the modern day, her email has been hijacked and used multiple times by The Broadcaster.

Theories
In Broadcast #13 of Clear Lakes 44, a female voice is heard talking over the phone; many people assume that she is Danielle. Due to her increasingly erratic behavior in the ARKlistener book and the use of her email by The Broadcaster, some people speculate that it is possible she is The Broadcaster, or is connected to them in some way. There is also speculation that she may be a BLOT victim due to the aforementioned erratic behavior.
