Appearance
He is shown to have short, spiked up light brown hair almost blonde, blue eyes and fair skin with a slight tan tint. He wears a light red shirt, black jeans and black shoes and a green bracelet on his right hand and a bandage/cast on his left due to a wrist injury which is later off because he recovered.

His party outfit consists of a black rolled-sleeved dress shirt, grey trousers and black shoes. James turns green/dark green in his spirit form.

Personality
Like his peers, he can show concern and shows immaturity. At other times, he can be serious like in a battle with Chase. James is also really smart. He is also messy. Whenever he's nervous, he bites his fingernails which he finds as a bad habit, his peers even find it a bad habit.

James is also a loyal, kind and honest person. Before the events of Season 7, he gets scared when Tristan was possessed in Singapore by Chase. He is also good with younger kids stating that he has a younger sister who died after being ill with an unknown illness. He also finds wearing a kilt ridiculous and is afraid of spiders. James also finds staring at other people rude.

Etymology
(First name) James is a classic, traditional and Biblical name (Saint James, of course, was one of Jesus' 12 apostles) meaning "supplanter" or "replacer." It's derived from the Latin Jacomus which also means "may God protect."

(Middle name) Daniel is a masculine given name and a surname of Hebrew origin. It means "God is my judge" (cf. Gabriel—"God is my strength"), and derives from two early biblical figures, primary among them Daniel from the Book of Daniel. It is a common given name for males, and is also used as a surname.

(Last name) This ancient surname is of early Gaelic origins. It is derived from 'Maccbethad' (the modern Scottish 'Macbeth'), meaning 'son of life', or 'man of religion', which hardly fits in with Shakespeares interpretation!
