Donatello (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)
Summary
Donatello, nicknamed Don or Donnie/Donny, is a superhero and one of the four main characters of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics and all related media. He is the smartest and often gentlest of his brothers, wearing a purple mask over his eyes. He wields a bō staff, his primary signature weapon in all media.
He is the adoptive and mutated son of Master Splinter, and the brother of Leonardo, Raphael and Michelangelo. Like all of the brothers, he is named after a Renaissance artist; in this case, he is named after Italian sculptor Donatello. He is the favorite turtle of co-creator Peter Laird, who served as the basis of Donatello's personality.
Donatello is a gifted polymath, possessing a natural aptitude for science and technology, and often speaks in technobabble. He is the most logical and rational of his brothers, possessing a high sense of ingenuity and serving as the second-in-command of the team. He is responsible for all technological innovations the team utilizes, such as technical expertise, intel gathering, vehicles, homemade bioweapons, and everything in between. Any science and math skill you can think of, he will do it all. Donatello is not as rowdy and violent as his brothers, but he can get a little annoyed with them on occasion. However, as a natural introvert, he is far quieter and more reserved than his brothers, rarely losing his temper. Donatello is calm, sensible, friendly, and gentle. He does not get into a lot of confrontations with his brothers. He doesn’t share the love of combat as his brothers do, instead opting for alternative methods of problem-solving and interests that stimulate the inquiring mind. He is more interested in his work than in his ninjutsu, but he still attends ninja practice and works hard there as well as his projects.
In the comics, Donatello is depicted as the calmest turtle. While the comics' portrayal of the team has no official command structure, in the early stories he is depicted as the next in command, and the closest brother to Leonardo.
