Age: 23
Classification: Human
Powers and Abilities: Peak Human Physical Characteristics, Superhuman Lifting Strength, Subjective Reality (Non-combat applicable. Humans' collective will is what creates fairies and even make the Earth flat or round)
Attack Potency: Street level (Could fight with Keith Baring. Effortlessly overpowered and killed his brother in a brief fit of rage, and likely did the same to his father)
Speed: At least Athletic Human (Was able to chase William Morton for an extended period of time despite being wounded)
Lifting Strength: Likely Class 1 (Threatened to snap an unconscious Keith's neck, and considering his low intelligence and simple personality, it's unlikely he was lying, or knew a method to lessen the force required. Comparable if not superior to Keith)
Striking Strength: Street level

Range: Standard Melee Range
Standard Equipment: A rope meant for hanging and a knife
Intelligence: Below Average. Edward's mind is somewhat childish due to his father's abusive treatment of him; he struggles to speak, believes in Will's claim of owning a talking rat and is shocked when someone cusses around him. Ed was previously brainwashed by a small cult that convinced him that peace can only be found in killing sinners. After the dismantlement of this cult, Ed still believes in their teachings, and thinks he must sacrifice someone to atone for the murder of his father. Otherwise, he is peaceful and simple-minded.
Weaknesses: Repeated swearing will stress him out and potentially enrage him.
