* without helmet

**Elder David** was one of the Elders of the Creek. He used to be friends with Mark and Barry, spending all of his time in their hangout, Elder Rock. Currently, he is only best friends with Barry, no longer playing in the Creek. He is now a goth and works at the Smoothy Groovie where he is friends with Tabitha and Courtney.He introduces himself as "Dark Emperor David" to the Stump Kids in "Craig to the Future".

## Physical appearance

David has clear skin and large eyes, which show an expression of surprise. He has yellowish buckteeth and a thin goatee. He wears a gray helmet with white horns, hiding his shiny black hair and a handsomely big nose. Instead of having a shirt, he has a red leather coat with a white border. He also wears brown pants and black sandals.

In "Craig to the Future", after leaving the Creek and starts working at Smoothy Groovie, David's appearance is now that of a goth. His lower eyelashes are darker and longer, and his right eye is completely covered by his hair. He wears a purple T-shirt with torn-off sleeves tucked into black pants. He also wears hand warmers the same shade of purple, but with three black stripes. Around his neck is a black bulky choker, and he now shows off three piercings placed symmetrically on each ear.

## Personality

In "Kelsey Quest," David can be a bit cowardly and he is also shown to know how to juggle with gravity sticks, beat-box, and takes martial art lessons. He is prone to innocence, like when Mark and Barry brought a cake for Jerry to lure him into Elder Rock, and when David carried the happy birthday sign, he believed it was a real birthday party. In "Kelsey the Elder", he was shown to be a very enthusiastic person, constantly smiling and yelling excitedly. He was also portrayed as lovably immature, wanting to drink acid spit in a game of DnD because he thought it might give him acid spitting powers and that he was already going to die instantly from something else anyway. He has a clear love for his friends, as his response to Mark and Barry reuniting after a falling out was to jump on them to hug them and yell "Yay! We're friends again!" Whenever he speaks, he pronounces "S" as a "Z" indicating that he has a speech problem.

David is Jewish as revealed by Elder Mark mentioning David's bar mitzvah gifts in "You're It".

* David, along with Mark and Barry, has appeared in Ben Levin and Matt Burnett's previous works, including *I'm In Ur Manger Killing Ur Savior*, *Ronin Dojo Community College DX: The Digital Pirates of Dark Water Saga*, and *H.P. Papercraft*.
