There is some controversy as to whether ‘Ed’ is Nasedo or not, so I will just refer to him as ‘Ed’

‘Ed’ is one of the shapeshifters who was captured by the government after the ’47 crash. He escaped almost immediately and spent the next forty years apparently roaming the US and killing of heads of the Special Unit. Ed kills by raising the temperature of internal organs to 180 degrees. (TWR)

The shapeshifter known as Nasedo spent some time living in a cave on the Mesaliko reservation – see Nasdeo for complete info.

For some unknown reason Ed killed Everett Hubble’s wife Shelia while he was posing as a vagrant.

Ed went to the pod chamber to get Max, Isabel, Michael and Tess when they ‘hatched’ but only Tess was still there. The others had already left and he spent the next ten years trying to find them.

Not much is known what happened to them afterward, but Tess tells Isabel that they’ve been running from the Special Unit all her life. It seems to me that Ed must be pretty incompetent if the Special Unit keeps finding them.

It is not exactly clear what led Ed back to Roswell to find the other three hybrids, perhaps it was the signal that Michael sent at the library in ‘Blind Date.’ At first Ed and Tess pretend to be humans, but Tess finally reveals that she is part of their group and her ‘father’ is their protector.

He is known to be disdainful of humans, and tells Tess not to get attached to Earthly things because it isn’t her true home. He is snarky, dismissive, arrogant, and has a strange sense of humor.

Ed is very skilled at using his powers, and at times seems to have great intelligence, but other times his decisions and plans seem very ill-conceived.
