(With all due respect to Velma fans) Daphne Blake is arguably one of the most popular cartoon damsels to come along in years, being the pretty girl most likely to get captured, tied up, gagged, hypnotized, blindfolded, and left helpless- thus earning her the nickname "Danger-prone Daphne . Daphne is usually rescued by the other members of the Scooby gang, ;very rarely does she escape by herself.

From the Wiki article: Daphne's tendency to get into trouble is apparently something of a family trait. As her cousin Shannon explained in the cartoon movie Scooby Doo and the Loch Ness Monster "For centuries we Blakes have been falling through trap doors, finding secret passageways, and getting caught in overly complicated booby traps of our own design. If there's one thing we Blakes are famous for it's being danger prone."

Here is a mini-movie of many of Daphne's scenes.
