Origin: Once a renowned scientist on Planet Chad, Zed's life took an unexpected turn during an experiment aimed at unlocking the secrets of eternal life. A miscalculation led to a catastrophic explosion, transforming him into the first known Chad zombie. Yet, unlike the zombies of lore, Zed retained a glimmer of his former genius, albeit clouded by his new, undead nature.

Journey to Chadlyness: Zed's transition into undeath was met with fear and misunderstanding from the Chad populous. In his isolation, he wandered the outskirts of Chadville, grappling with his new identity. It was during these wanderings that he stumbled upon Vlad, a fellow outcast with a profound sense of purpose. Vlad saw potential in Zed, not as a monster, but as a valuable ally. Together, they encountered Jake, Marcus, and Max, forming an unlikely fellowship bound by their shared sense of displacement and a collective quest for meaning.

Integration with The MaxChadz: Despite his occasional lapses into zombie-like behavior, Zed quickly became the group's de facto engineer, applying his scientific knowledge in unpredictable yet often effective ways. His unique perspective and problem-solving skills, combined with his surprising strength, made him an indispensable member of the MaxChadz.

Zed's apartment in Chadville, shared with his newfound family, became a sanctuary and a laboratory. Within these walls, Zed's inventions and concoctions often led to hilarious outcomes, reinforcing the bond among the MaxChadz through laughter and shared experiences.

Quirk: Zed's fascination with life and its mysteries remained, driving him to experiment with ways to blend his zombie attributes with his scientific pursuits. His experiments range from trying to taste food again to finding a scientific explanation for the Book of Chad's powers. These endeavors often lead to amusing, if not entirely successful, results.

Legacy: Zed's story is a testament to resilience, ingenuity, and the transformative power of acceptance. In the MaxChadz, he found not just acceptance but a purpose and a cause greater than any experiment: the pursuit of Chadlyness and the exploration of the unknown. Together, they navigate the challenges of Planet Chad, each member's backstory intertwining to form a narrative of adventure, growth, and unity.

As Zed continues to evolve, both as a zombie and a scientist, his journey with the MaxChadz symbolizes the idea that strength lies in diversity and that true greatness is achieved together, not alone. His tale, like those of his companions, is a chapter in the ever-expanding saga of "MaxChadz: The Broforce Chronicles," a story of overcoming adversity, embracing one's true self, and the unbreakable bonds of friendship.
