Dirk the Daring

Dirk the Daring is the main protagonist of the Dragon's Lair video game series created by Don Bluth. In the original Dragon's Lair created in 1983, Dirk must go through the castle in various levels to rescue Daphne from the dragon Singe.

In Dragon's Lair 2: Time Warp, Dirk has married Daphne and had children. The evil wizard Mordroc has captured Daphne. Dirk must travel through time with a time machine who claims to be Mordroc's brother. He must travel through eras like the prehistoric age, the house of Lewis Carroll; creator of Alice In Wonderland, the Garden of Eden, the house of Beethoven with his creative gust, and Ancient Egypt. He must rescue Daphne before Mordroc places the Ring of Doom around her finger, making her his monstrous bride forever. After defeating Mordroc, Dirk rescues Daphne and escapes from Mordroc's castle with the time machine, bringing back the treasures Dirk collected to his family.

Dirk's voice was played by a film editor Dan Molina (only in Dragon's Lair 2: Time Warp for the very first time ever).

Dirk's partner is Dexter/ Space Ace in Don Bluth's Space Ace.
