About
Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV also known as Radical Edward, Ed, and rarely her birth name Françoise Appledehli (born January 1, 205 cool is a hacker prodigy from Earth. She is a comically eccentric teenage girl around 13 years in age.
Edward was born on Earth and abandoned at a Christian orphanage by her absent-minded father, Mr. Appledelhi, when she was 4 years old. Eventually Edward left the orphanage on her own before her father remembered what he had done and come back to find her.
When she met the crew of the Bebop she was living as a nomadic hacker armed only with her computer, Tomato. She had developed a folk hero-like status among many Earthlings who created larger than life descriptions of her. At her core Edward is a joyful adolescent with an affinity for souvenirs, pinwheels and Ein the Pembroke Welsh Corgi.
Edward had been tracking Spike, Jet and Faye for some time and she learned about their exploits on other worlds before they landed on her home planet of Earth.
The crew of Bebop learn that a bounty is placed on the person responsible for making land carvings on Earth using a weather satellite from Earth's orbit. The news media and ISSP assume that a hacker is responsible for the act and few hackers are as storied by the local Earthlings as Radical Edward. With her computer Tomato and her hacking skills Edward is able to talk with the weather satellite who she calls MPU.
She discovers that the satellite created the land carvings on his own because he was lonely, and Edward hackings into the Bebop's communication line to tell them that the satellite is the bounty. She offers her help in downloading a copy of MPU for the Bebop in return for one favor: that Edward can become a member of Bebop.
Ed is a skinny androgynous teenage girl with tufts of bright red hair. She is drawn with red cheek marks to accentuate her youth, and she also has no discernible nose. Edward wears a loose sleeveless white T-shirt, tight bicycle shorts, and is always seen barefooted. Once she attempted to wear socks in Mushroom Samba but she immediately lost her balance. She sometimes wears a pair of large green goggles on her head or dangling from her neck. The goggles hook up to her computer and allow her to "net dive".
Ed has displayed many unusual character traits that are common of a teenager, eccentric genius, and wild animal. She is a free spirit that sometimes show emotion by growling or howling like a dog. Edward rarely walks in a normal fashion, instead preferring to run with her arms flailing, crawl on the ground, roll in somersaults, or walk on her hands. She is always talking about herself in the third person and will sometimes respond to a character in nonsensical Edwardisms.
