Mason isn't a good character, at all. And we know nothing about him. Seriously, we know literally nothing about him, he's just there. I also find him really annoying and I really don't want him to be the Beast because it would give him importance he doesn't deserve. See? Same as Sydney. Except with more screen time, but barely any character. He is... Liam's friend. And basically that's where his character ends. I actually rolled my eyes when he figured out the frequency+beast thing. Would've made more sense for Stiles who is basically the detective of the group figure it out. Mason could be a very good character. They just have to give him more things to do besides giving motivational speeches and funny quips. And I'm looking forward to see what will they do to him. Yet see this would also be why it couldnt be danny either though. Actually if we're going towards usefulness or any sort of measurement of importantness Danny is even less important. Set aside your actual opinion of the actors or what not an just look at it straight on. Danny was really only ever Jacksons friend or aidens boyfriend (both of which are no longer on the show.) He had one school project that just basically had to do with what was going on at the time in figuring out the currents and he has had no real interaction with the pack as a whole. Looked at that way theres a more compelling arguement that mason should be the beast instead of danny. As far as actors go thats all personal feelings. Some people like mason more than danny other people like danny more than mason but as far as who would have a larger impact on the pack overall it would be mason.
