Professor Elvin Gadd was a contestant in Total Drama Mushroom Kingdom. He competed on the Murdering Flowers, and he made it up until Episode 13, where he finished 5th.

## Character Description

Elvin Gadd, or Professor E. Gadd, as he likes to call himself, is a 40 year old man (at least that’s what he claims to be, we all know he’s over 60, maybe even 70) that likes gadgets, ghosts, and inventions. He’s worked countless of times with Luigi to save Mario off King Boo’s painting prison, and he’s obviously just here to help. It’s crazy how he signed up for such a difficult and insane show like Total Drama Mushroom Kingdom.

## Season History

### Season 1: 5th

Professor E. Gadd was put on the Murdering Flowers. In Episode 2, Wario didn't let him participate and called him Geppetto. He didn't do anything notable in Episode 3 either other than making an invention for Luigi to throw balls quickly, but Lakitu said that inventions were prohibited in said challenge. His team lost and he voted off Goomba. In Episode 4, E. Gadd finally got to shine making his invention, the Gadd Charger 5000, and helping his team win the challenge. In Episode 5, E. Gadd made another invention, this time to help his team throw balls of food instead of regular food. It did help his team, but they still lost. However, he was safe as he sided with everyone to vote Daisy off. Around that time, he was starting to get tiring and he thought of quitting. In Episode 6, his team lost again, and he didn't help much, he was just carried by DK to the top. E. Gadd voted Wario off, but he also got one vote from Mona. In Episode 7, he barely appeared in the challenge, but his team still won. In Episode 8, the teams merged but he was put on a temporary duo with Boo, in which they got along but failed to win. In Episode 9, E. Gadd lost the challenge early, but still voted Rosalina with everyone else. In Episode 10, E. Gadd lost the challenge, voted Boo, but still got two votes by Mario and Bowser. Professor E. Gadd mostly floated throughout the competition apart from Episodes 4 and 5, but his real abilities started to show in Episode 11. He told Mario a Final 3 alliance plan, with Luigi and Yoshi as their puppets. He called them idiots too behind their backs. He won the challenge, so the fact that Mario told his alliance about the conversation, basically had no effect. But it made everyone aware of E. Gadd's plan. Well, Mona and DK weren't, as E. Gadd convinced them to blindside Luigi. E. Gadd thought Mona and DK were easily usable. Luigi unfriended E. Gadd, and it's still unknown whether he's forgiven him or not. In Episode 12, E. Gadd was shunned and left alone by everyone, even Mona and DK. His quitting thoughts came back, but he stayed strong. He won again in the School Challenge and voted for Mona, basically "blindsiding" her as well. In Episode 13, E. Gadd tried winning the challenge by making a new invention, but it wasn't ready in time and he lost. This led to his elimination, when he got voted off by everyone. He apologized, but we don't know if anyone still forgives him or not. He reappeared in Episode 14, where he was asked to question someone, but he didn't. This episode also showed that Mario didn't forgive E. Gadd, due to their several arguments during the episode. In general E. Gadd had a good run during the competition, and finished in 5th despite being 70 years old.

## Relationships

Currently he has no friends, but he used to be in an alliance with Luigi and Koopa Troopa, and he was good friends with Mario as well, because he and Luigi had saved him in Luigi's Mansion. E. Gadd had very strong negative feelings for Daisy and Wario, but thankfully for him, they were gone early.
