'Kay, so, I'm sure this has been said many a times before but I just wanna throw my two cents in.
I know everyone always jokes about how Fenton and Phantom being the same person is so obvious, it's insane no character in the show ever realizes without there being a whole-ass reveal. And I may be reading too much into a children's cartoon's side characters, they could just be oblivious because that's what writers can get away with in a children's cartoon - but if you look at Fenton from the characters' perspective it's honestly understandable no one ever found out during the show's runtime.
Sure, to us it's obvious as fuck, Fenton - Phantom, same voice, basically the same appearance but with a color swap, same dumb puns and whatnot. However, to the cast, Fenton's just a loser kid with his small friend group. An easy target for bullying and a kid with passable grades at best. Compare that to Phantom, someone many of the student body idolize. He's an insanely strong, inhuman, probably dead teen ghost. That, and Phantom appeared around the same time people first started acknowledging ghosts as a real phenomenon. There's no way any human in their right mind would connect this newly discovered phenomenon to a seemingly human kid. It's absurd! The idea had always been too outlandish to even be considered by most. How could they theorize that a human already got mixed with ghostliness when they'd just been told what ghosts are?
Of course, as Danny became more ghostly even in his acts as Fenton, that's when some of the quick-witted students might start to catch on that he's even odder than he was before. They might even start to catch on to how other ghosts' attacks affect him differently, or not at all. But most would still not dare approach the idea that he is Phantom himself. Perhaps a select few will, however it does makes sense that it takes a reveal for most people to genuinly believe/accept Fenton and Phantom to be the same kid. Maybe a lot of people have indeed had a thought like this in the back of their minds but have always kept it there. Not daring to believe this outlandish idea.
He's hiding in plain sight, and it makes sense that he does. He knows no one will even try to link Fenton and Phantom unless he screws up and displays his ghostly prowess in front of someone. That the two are one and the same person, is only obvious to us as an audience because we see both Fenton and Phantom's perspectives. We see him transform and we see his adventures as both human and ghost. That, and it's entertainment media. We would know even if they didn't plainly show them being the same person. That's different for the characters who have known Fenton for the majority of their lives, however.

How to Play as Danny Phantom in DnD 5e
We’re going ghost with this build as we work to incorporate the undead slayer of the undead: Inviso-bill. If we can, I might try to blend his division between human and inhuman forms, but if I can’t, then this build will focus exclusively on his ghost form.
He’s a Phantom
Except he’s not. Not quite. He’s Undead. Or as close as he can get. Undead, Vampires, and Skeletons aren’t playable races, so we need a way to simulate being not exactly alive. The Revived Rogue is someone who has died and been resurrected and also comes pre-packaged with ghost bolts and walking through the Ghost Zone. Beyond his ghost powers though, Danny is a normal Human. However, his ghostly breath alerts him to danger, so we’ll make him a Variant Human with the Alert feat to warn him with +1 DEX and +1 INT.
Danny’s no stranger to using his powers selfishly to get what he wants, but he is at heart still a hero. I’d call him Neutral Good.
For background, super heroes often get lumped in as City Watch, but as Danny is a pretty well-known figure in the area, he could be considered a Folk Hero.
He can walk through walls, disappear, and fly
We can’t make Danny a literal ghost, so the next best thing is to try and help him resist non-magical damage. Spells like Blade Ward, Stoneskin, and Investiture of Stone give you temporary resistance to these damage types. War Clerics, Oathbreaker Paladins, and Crown Paladins get these resistances as well. As a ghost, Danny can only be harmed by other ghosts. Unfortunately, all of the subclasses that offer protection for mortal wounds don’t offer them until extremely late in the build and are only viable if Danny doesn’t need too many levels in Rogue.
Psionics Wizards also get the ability to become resistant to Slashing, Piercing and Bludgeoning damage. Later, at 14th Level, this spiritual form gains the ability to walk through walls and can cast spells like Fly and Invisibility. With this build, Danny isn’t a pure ghost, as he can now shift between a tangible and ghostly form. Comparatively, the Revived Rogue gets Bolts from the Grave for Ghost Blasts, the ability to speak to ghosts, and Ethereal Jaunt lets you slip in and out of the Ghost Zone at will, which can offer the same intangibility to let Danny go through walls as the Psionics Wizard. As an Oathbreaker Paladin, he can boost the strength of Undead, detect undead, and gain resistance to melee damage.
To get Danny’s ghostly resistance to mortal wounds, you need at least 6 levels in Wizard, but doing so takes away Danny’s ability to walk through walls without using spells like Blink. However, this gives Danny’s Bolts from the Grave 7d6 Necrotic Damage. At a 14/6 split in favor of Wizard, Danny gets his ghost bolts, intangibility, and wall-walking, but reduces the damage of his ghost bolts to only 3d6 Necrotic damage. But to be fair, Danny’s ghost bolts aren’t that strong. Oathbreaker Paladins need to be 15 to get their damage resistance, which only leaves 5 levels for Rogue.
Stats and Proficiencies
Okay, realistically Danny’s Intelligence would not be his top stat. Danny is not a valedictorian by any means. But the Psionics Wizard lets him go ghost, which is what we need, and Wizards cast with their INT stat. As a Rogue too, it would be criminal to deprive him of a high AC, so we’ll also focus on his Dexterity score. Next is Wisdom, since his ghost sense alerts him to the presence of undead, so he’ll need a strong Perception. Constitution makes sure you don’t die after a single hit. But as an awkward geek, your Strength and Charisma scores will suffer. You might have hid your powers from your parents for a long time, but to be fair, they’re not exactly the most perceptive pair, so you don’t exactly have to be a master at deception to fool them.

How do you feel I did with Danny? Did I miss anything important? I have two more builds planned and then I’m taking a break from DnD builds to refocus on my Dating Disney posts. The last two will be Star Butterfly and Momo Yaoyorozu. But I’ll be sure to file away any requests for future builds when I come back to this.
yknow what its all fine actually
Listen, I have fallen deeply in love with Danny Phantom once more, my childhood crush has taken over my life once more.
I have many ideas, I can’t wait to share them.
