Daniel "Dan" Kuso is a Bakugan player partnered with a Pyrus Dragonoid named Drago. After his heroic actions, he has become a legend among brawlers from Earth, Vestal, Neathia, and Gundalia. He used to live in Wardington with his parents, Miyoko Kuso and Shinjiro Kuso, near his friends Runo Misaki, Marucho Marukura and Shun Kazami. He eventually moved to Bayview, as did Julie, who became his neighbor. He was the #1 Brawler in Bakugan Interspace until he was disqualified in a brawl against Anubias. He finally moved to Bakugan City, and now lives in the Battle Brawlers Headquarters. Dan is a boy who really loves Bakugan and aspires to be the best brawler to ever live, which he even was at one point. However, he tends to be impulsive and rash, which often leads him to trouble when his overconfidence gets the better of him. He is easily frustrated, which combined with his eagerness to brawl, causes him to complain a lot when he has to wait around in hiding, as shown in the first and second season. However, Dan has outgrown that habit. In the beginning, Dan played using raw power without any kind of strategy, only caring about winning and not the consequences that would follow. Because of this, he and Drago got into an argument that ended with Dan throwing Drago in the river. After losing a battle to Ryo and reuniting with Drago, Dan learned that there's more to Bakugan than just power. After that experience, Dan started using a little more strategy in his battles, allowing him to take on world-ranked Bakugan champions like Chan Lee.

Salamander, also known by the nickname Drago, is Dan Kuso's Partner Bakugan. He serves as a battle partner, a guardian, and source of wisdom. Although he is impatient and a pacifist, he wants to help Dan protect Earth and Vestroia. He is the direct descendant of the Original Dragonoid, one of the two first Bakugan ever created. Drago was formerly very ferocious, but being with Dan has calmed his temper. He is still very impatient and hot-tempered; he oftentimes becomes annoyed with Dan, although they always make up. At first, he was generally hostile towards Dan, refusing to take orders from a human. Over time, he and Dan gradually built up their friendship and the two had became close friends. Shun notes that after having spent so much time with Dan, he has picked up some of Dan's behavior, such as directly attacking the opponent rather than taking a more stealthy approach. Drago's personality resembles that of an honorable knight; he has a strong sense of justice, never allows anyone to get away with their evil deeds, is fully committed to the greater good, and holds high regard for honor and justice. While he is willing to fight to protect the innocent and for sport, he usually dislikes fighting on the spur of the moment and when it is for someone's own selfish or evil intentions, which he regards as meaningless. Drago has a deep hatred for people who are driven by their lust for power to the point of madness.
