Edward Peabody

## Background

### 2003 - 2017: Edward Peabody

Edward Peabody, or Sweet Pea as everyone knows him, was born & raised on the Southside of Riverdale. He was born to Robert & Beatrice Peabody, both long-time members of the Southside Serpents. His parents weren't the only members of the gang as his aunt & uncle were also Serpents. Both Sweet Pea & his older cousin Penny were expected to undergo the Serpents Initiation when they reach of age & go on to become members.

### 2017 - Present: Sweet Pea

The summer before he was to attend Southside High, Sweet Pea decided he was ready. At this point, his Penny had already underwent the initiation years ago & passed. He passed through the process easily, with many commenting that he is the fastest Serpent initiate to retrieve the knife from the Serpent's rattlesnake cage. At the same time, his longtime best friend Toni Topaz had also just completed her initiation, allowing the two to be newbies together.

Sweet Pea went on to participate in other initiations, such as Fangs Fogarty & Jughead Jones, both whom we considers close friends. Though they started off the wrong foot, Jughead's biological relation to the Serpents leader, FP Jones, made Sweet Pea fast to accept him as one of their own. The two continue to have their issues, like when they transferred to Riverdale High & Sweet Pea felt Jughead was taking the sides of the Northsiders but they always seem to solve their problems.

Despite his dislike of the Northside & its residents, Sweet Pea found a sweet spot in Josie McCoy. The two started a summer fling on the condition that things would end at after three months. Sweet Pea began to want for more but Josie declines as she want to remain focused on music. However, despite their initial "expiration" date, the two continued hooking up. Josie even invited Sweet Pea as her date to her mom's wedding but he refused knowing she did not want a serious relationship like him. He eventually ended things completely & Josie soon moved away to Capital City.

Since then, Sweet Pea has remained relatively single & has not seriously settled down with anyone, focusing more on the Serpents. Though many see them as dangerous criminals, petty thieves or drug dealers, Sweet Pea sees them as family & was always ready to lay his life down on the line for them.

## Personality

Sweet Pea is protective of his own & has a firm stance on loyalty. Due to Jughead's biological relation to Southside Serpents leader, FP Jones, he was fast to accept Jughead as one of their own. However, Jughead did not accept his hand in friendship initially, which Sweet Pea took as a sign of disrespect, thus triggering his already short temper.
