[edit] The Eds
[edit] Ed
The workhorse of the group, Ed is known to laugh a lot, and he's very happy most of the time. His mind is a subculture grab bag full of comics and monster movies, which he often confuses with reality. Ed is utterly at the mercy of his tyrannical younger sister Sarah, and is an easy target for her emotional blackmail. Much to the dismay of germophobe Edd, he has poor personal hygiene, even to the point of being terrified of soap. He loves buttered toast, gravy, and animals, especially chickens. Ed would seem to be mentally challenged at first glance, but his mind simply functions in an alternate reality. Ed exhibits symptoms of dyslexia.
[edit] Edd
Edd or "Double-D" is a young inventor, neat freak, and the brains of the group. Edd is never seen without his sock-like black ski hat, apparently hiding a disturbing secret which only Ed and Eddy know about. To differentiate his homophonic name from that of Ed, everyone calls him Double-D. His parents put a heavy workload on their only child, communicating a plethora of tasks solely through a multitude of sticky notes. Edd is considered a nerd by everyone, and is normally a straight-A student in all of his classes. He hates sports because of a mysterious event known as the dodgeball incident. Because he is not very strong physically, he has a difficult time dealing with sports. Edd is an excellent pedal steel guitar player, although he insists that he loathes the instrument.
[edit] Eddy
A greedy, sociopathic con artist, Eddy is the self-appointed leader of the Eds. He goes to great lengths to scam the other kids out of a quarter, even at the expense of his friends' credibility. His efforts are all in the pursuit of jawbreakers, which he obsesses over even more than money. Eddy hates school and his report card labels him a megalomaniac. Due to his shortness in height, he has something of an inferiority complex. Eddy loves his retro styled room, complete with a lava lamp, a large round king-sized bed, a disco ball, and a record player with a Tom Jones and Barry White record sitting next to it. Eddy is mostly seen commanding the other two Eds while he just slacks off.
[edit] Secondary characters
[edit] Jimmy
A childish aspiring artist, Jimmy likes spending most of his time with Sarah. Jimmy is quite accident-prone, usually sporting many bandages, and is the weakest kid in the cul-de-sac. Though Jimmy has a cowardly and delicate personality, he truly wishes to be strong and muscular. He can be quite crafty when motivated, and twice has made scams that were very successful, even getting back at the Eds in one utterly cunning scheme. Jimmy has shown how deeply attached he is to Sarah when someone tries to take her away from him. He also wears a retainer to reset his teeth, due to Eddy's pastry/bowling pin scam.
[edit] Jonny
A typical nuisance, Jonny has a large head, talks a lot, and frequently gets on the other kids' nerves. He doesn't seem to mind the antics of the Eds and sometimes seems to enjoy them. Jonny is innocent and gullible, and forgives people no matter what they do. He is rarely seen without his best friend, a board with drawn-on eyes and a mouth with crayon, named Plank. Jonny's actions and decisions are often affected by what he believes Plank tells him to do.
[edit] Kevin
The jock on the block, Kevin hates the Eds, especially Eddy, and calls them "dorks" quite often. Kevin is a bully, and has been shown to be extremely cruel at various times. Kevin had a garage full of jawbreakers, as his father works at a jawbreaker factory, and loves customizing his bike, skateboards, and snowboards. When not riding his trusty bike, he usually hangs out with Rolf and Nazz in the lane. He is a gym assistant and hall monitor at Peach Creek Junior High and enjoys playing football. According to his Cartoon Network bio, Kevin watches 60 Minutes.
[edit] Nazz
The trendy, attractive girl of the cul-de-sac, Nazz mostly hangs out with Kevin. She doesn't mind the Eds unless they annoy her. All of the boys except Rolf and Jimmy have a crush on her. Whenever she approaches, the Eds begin to sweat, and lose the ability to speak coherently. She is the head cheerleader at Peach Creek Junior High. Although Nazz is usually depicted as sweet and smart, she can occasionally be a bit ditzy (which can be typically described as a dumb blonde).
[edit] Rolf
Rolf comes from a curious European culture with odd customs, and has a thick accent to match. It is purposely never stated which country he's from, so his personality is not committed to a certain culture.[1] He works his parents' small farm within the cul-de-sac, and also leads a scouting group called the Urban Rangers, which includes Jimmy and Jonny. Rolf usually refers to himself in third person, as well as being the son of a shepherd, which he takes pride in. His faithful farm animals are two pigs (one named Wilfred), a goat named Victor, four chickens (two named Bridget and Gertrude), and a cow. When not working, he hangs out with Kevin, playing various sports. He hardly minds the Eds unless they make a fool out of him, after which he is not afraid to use brute force. He always mentions people in his family and stories or folk tales from the "old country".
[edit] Sarah
Sarah is Ed's spoiled little sister, who acts cute and charming only when it serves her. Sarah has Ed's unending loyalty and obedience, mostly from threats of her snitching on him. She has a short temper and gets easily aggitated with others, especially her brother. She is almost always playing with Jimmy, and when she's not, rushes to his aid the moment Jimmy calls her. It has also been revealed that she has a crush on Edd.
[edit] Minor characters
[edit] Kanker Sisters
If there's one thing the Eds and the cul-de-sac kids can agree on, it is that they all hate the Kankers. May, Marie, and Lee are three half-sisters that live in the nearby trailer park called Park 'n' Flush. They are the cul-de-sac's number one enemy and they are feared by all the other kids for their brash, uninhibited demeanor and unpredictable behavior. While all the Kankers like the Eds, it has been shown that May has a preference for Ed, Marie for Edd, and Lee for Eddy.
[edit] Unseen character
[edit] Eddy's brother
Eddy's brother has never appeared on-screen, having left the cul-de-sac some time before the start of the series. Eddy claims his brother was "the coolest kid in the cul-de-sac". Kevin is scared of Eddy's brother, and Rolf thinks Eddy's brother wants to steal his chickens. Jonny looks up to Eddy's brother, and Nazz has a crush on him. Jimmy wants to meet him because he has big muscles. Sarah couldn't care less about him. His appearance has only been given through vague impressions, such as the photo of Eddy and his brother's silhouettes on the staircase. Eddy makes passing references to him when one of his ideas are inspired by him, often claiming that his brother was a "whiz" at whatever he happens to be doing.
