John's younger brother, Daniel, is a soldier serving with the British East India Company.
He may have followed in his brother's footsteps by coming to India, but that's where the similarity ends. Daniel has a reckless streak. A man of action, he embraces the dangerous life of a soldier and has enjoyed all the pleasures that India has to offer.
He has a roguish charm that often proves irresistible, but he also struggles with temptation, and his blossoming relationship with Chanchal causes friction amongst the staff and puts him at odds with his brother.
Daniel is principled, if a little misguided, and although the brothers have their differences, he and John will always be there for each other when it matters.
