Personality: There isn't too much to be said of this man. Despite his rather brutish and downright scary appearance, Ed is very capable at his job and a decent people person. He treats his job seriously for the most part, and acts in a tough but fair manner. Any complaint taken to him is met with proper scrutiny, and he records all conversations to preemptively shut up any potential lawsuits.
Off the clock he's friendly as can be, and prone to nerding out to anyone with the patience to listen to his opinions on comics (Hint; He thinks most of them suck ass now. We all know it.) Newcomers are treated with the same fair neutrality as his on-the-clock self until he's formed his opinion. If he approves, see above. If not, be prepared to be greeted with communications in mostly grunts and scowls.

What Brings You to Dunder Mifflin: Ed has been with Dunder Mifflin for several years now after his last employer was shut down. He isn't seeking anything very special or ambitious, just another decent job to pay the bills. Dunder Mifflin was the only employer hiring HR at the time, so his options were a bit limited in the field. Since then he's been a well-enough liked employee, though most of the new hires innitially shit themselves if called into his office.
Life Up To This Point: Ed's life is a simple one, a tale of brief glory and then a slow train along mediocrity and security. Born and raised in Laffeyette, Louisiana, Ed was raised in a traditional Catholic home and spent most of his life with a good, Catholic work ethic drilled into him. In his schooling, he excelled in atheltics, given his large size, and showed a talent for settling fights with his classmates. This continued on into high school, where he served on the student council in a role he doesn't quite remember, but that he remembers as basically being useless.
After high school, he went to Louisiana State University on a football scholarship, where he studied sociology and psychology to find a way to make a living off of his talent for mediating other people's disputes. It was here that he fully embraced his love of comics, science fiction and other such geek stuff, and where he met his wife, Lana. He soon had two daughters with Lana; Kelly and Candice.
After graduating, heset out to work and found employment for most of his career at Eastwood-Mifune Insurance, located in Pennslyvania.
When Eastwood-Mifune was forced to close, Ed was eventually forced to move on to Dunder Mifflin, where he has served as HR rep for three years faithfully. He may grumble now and then about hardass bosses and a stream of increasingly less compitent employees, but he sticks around, mostly because he's too lazy to look for another job.
