Ember McLain is a character and villain from the Nickelodeon animated television series Danny Phantom, voiced by Tara Strong. Her singing voice is provided by Robin Kirmissel.

Character History[edit]

Ember McLain is a hard rocking ghost girl who feeds off the idol worship in teenagers. Ember's appearance, song, and character in general, portrays her as a ghostly embodiment of teenage rebellion and disobedience to authority figures.

Ember has long blue hair put into a ponytail at the top of her head held back, she has two flock of hair in front of her face which from an angle makes it look like an "m" and purple lipstick. Her clothing consists of a black choker around her neck while her upper body consists of a black tanktop exposing her midriff, one long glove that coves most of her right arm and one black bracelet on the left arm. She also wears a pair of what appear to be leather pants with a silver belt and skull boots.

Appearances[edit]

Making her debut in Fanning the Flames, Ember used her abilities and popstar status to dominate the world, keeping Danny distracted by placing a love spell on him that makes him fall in love with Sam, which keeps him busy while Ember busies herself with her plans. However, the spell was not on its full effect since only Danny was affected and not Sam and thanks to this setback the spell is broken when Sam in a desperate move, kisses Dash right in front of Danny. Heartbroken and finally out of the spell, he fights Ember and ultimately gets Tucker Foley to sing on stage. His bad singing causes the hypnotized crowd to stop cheering for Ember, whose powers and flaming hair then fizzle out to nothing as a result. She is captured and banished to the Ghost Zone by Danny Phantom.

She later attempted to exit the Ghost Zone a few days later in the episode "13", where she was shown in a line heading directly to the Human World and just as it was her turn to exit the Ghost Zone Johnny 13, Kitty and Shadow cut in front of her.

She made her second appearance as a main character in the episode Pirate Radio where Ember creates a song that adults get hypnotized by (actually a mellow, ballad version of RemEmber) so that they go to a fake cruise, called M. Bersback, a poorly hidden message for "Ember's back". With this, she teams up with Captain Youngblood. However, she just leaves/escapes the ship, after she accidentally burns the ship's sail, vowing to return. Despite her involvement in the plot, she was not the primary villain of the episode.

She came back in Reign Storm with numerous ghosts who fled the Ghost Zone when Pariah Dark was woken up. Later in the same episode, she, along Danny's other enemies, teamed up to help Danny fight off the ghost king's army.

In Identity Crisis, Danny, Sam, and Tucker check out Ember's file on Danny's computer hinting he might have fought with Ember before the beginning of the episode since Danny mentioned sending her back to the Ghost Zone.

In an alternate future (seen in The Ultimate Enemy), Ember is overweight and can no longer sing due to her vocal cords being damaged by Dark Danny. She attacks regular Danny along with some of his enemies, wanting revenge for the terrible fate his future self gave them.

She makes a cameo in The Fright Before Christmas first at the anual Christmas party with all of Danny´s enemies and then she ends up helping him fight the Ghostwriter and save Christmas.

In Beauty Marked Sam used make up very similar to Ember's on Paulina and later in Prince Aragon's castle Sam wore the make up.

In Girl's Night Out, Ember teams up with Kitty and Spectra in a joint attempt to eliminate all men. It is also revealed that Ember is Skulker's girlfriend, and that she has often picked on him for his lack of skill in hunting. She says he cannot find the TV remote as an example.

She along with the rest of the "ghost girls" where defeated by the efforts of Sam, Jazz and Maddie.

Ember's final appearance was in the series finale, Phantom Planet. She was first seen with many ghosts when Skulker leads a gang up on Danny and later she was one of the inhabitants of the Ghost Zone who helped Danny and Skulker turn the entire planet intangible, so that an asteroid can pass through it.

Personality[edit]

Ember is a hard-rocking ghost teen with disrespect towards any kind of authority figure, she obviously has a great amount of pride in her singing abilities, as she wanted revenge on Dark Danny in The Ultimate Enemy for destroying her vocal cords. She also has somewhat of a childish personality (whilst frequently shouting 1970's phrase such as "dipstick") due to her hatred she shares with Youngblood when it comes to adults, and distressed when things don't go the way she wants (Fanning The Flames).

She is not above revenge since in all the episodes she was featured as a villain she has either tried to hurt Danny or anyone who defeated her or annoys her in any sort of way. Ember also could get really low in her schemes when it comes to world conquest as she has used her music to control people, whether it's only for mind control or by changing one's emotions. Despite being a dangerous enemy, she is not insane or murderous like other ghosts in the series (in fact, she could be considered nothing more than a teenager with her own little desires).

Powers and Abilities[edit]

Being a ghost, Ember has many of the same abilities as other ghostly characters on the show; including: flight, Invisibility, Intangibility, and ghost rays. She also appears to have pyrokinesis, using her flaming hair at least once--adding to her given name. Whenever people cheer for her, the effect seemingly causes her hair to flare wildly and her eyes to glow, thus rapidly increasing her power. As of Fanning the Flames, if people don't chant her name her fiery ponytail goes off, rendering her powerless. However, in her later appearances she seems to have outgrown the constant need for adoring fans to maintain her flaming hair and control it and change its size at will (as seen in Pirate Radio).

She is an expert electric guitar player. In the episode Fanning the Flames, she uses the guitar as a weapon when she plays a ghostly "love song" to place Danny under a love spell. This in turn makes him fall in love with Samantha Manson, his "platonic" girlfriend. The effect is broken by the end of the episode.

In one of the close-ups of Ember's guitar, a knob can be seen that points to icons representing the special abilities Ember used. The icons shown are:

  • A music note (Used to turn normal people into psycho Ember fans)
  • A heart (For the love spell)
  • A skull (For the skull beam)
  • A fist (For the punch beam)
  • A spiral (For directly controlling peoples' actions)
  • A wave (Possibly the generic energy beam)

Relationships[edit]

Danny Phantom[edit]

She sees him as her main enemy no doubt due to the many defeats he has handed her; therefore she will do whatever she can to stop him from ruining her schemes. Ironically, she actually helped Danny and Sam realize their feelings for each other because of her love spell.

Captain Youngblood[edit]

They got along due to their hatred towards adults, seemingly getting along because of the childish personalities they both have. When they allied themselves, they apparently had a deal which was broken when Ember accidentally destroyed part of Youngblood's ship, she ultimately abandoned him.

Skulker[edit]

It was revealed in Girl's Night Out that Skulker and Ember were dating. They have a quarrel over Skulker's inability to hunt Danny Phantom or any ghost for that matter and it is unknown whether or not they are still dating.

Dark Danny[edit]

Ember found him the most deplorable ghost in existence and has a personal vendetta on him for ruinning her voice and making her fat in the alternative timeline of The Ultimate Enemy.

Penelope Spectra and Kitty[edit]

Ember allied with the two in an attempt to get revenge on men. She and Spectra at first seem to get along but when one thing goes wrong they start to blame each other. Ember bonded better with Kitty as they seem to have an understanding of one another because of the troubles they both have with their respective boyfriends.

Klemper[edit]

Klemper attempted to befriend Ember at the end of Fanning the Flames but was unsuccessful since she tried to get him to leave her alone.
