[edit] Character description
Edwin Venturi is Derek and Marti's thirteen-year old brother, and Casey and Lizzie's new stepbrother. His father is George Venturi and his stepmother is Nora MacDonald. His birth mother's name is Abby (unknown last name), who so far has only appeared in the episode Adios Derek. Edwin is your typical thirteen- year-old kid: he enjoys pranking his stepsister Lizzie (though relatively few times), is a devoted follower of video-games (particularly Babe Raider, at first glance is a sexist game), idolizes his older brother Derek, and usually doesn't wash his hands after using the restroom. He is known to be stealthy, and usually does anything Derek asks him to do. He generally attempts to emulate his older brother Derek, perceiving him as cool. Even though trying to be like his brother, the arrival of another kid almost his age (Lizzie) has changed him. He is not as obedient to Derek as before and often betrays him only to beg for mercy later. Edwin has also demonstrated an understanding of higher mathematics well beyond the abilities of an average thirteen-year-old, as in "All Systems No Go" where he shows an understanding of chaos theory. He once had a crush on a "developed" girl. It is also revealed that he is afraid of mice just as Derek and George are. It is also said that Edwin is relatively weak, lacking muscular endurance. This makes him an easy target for being bullied by Derek and tough kids at school, for he was once bullied by a child at his school named Terence.
