Name: Abed Nadir
Age: 21-28
Ethicity: Palestinian / Polish
Parents: Mother left him when he was young, has a new family, believed that his father blamed him and only found out upon entrance to Community College that he did not.
Religion: Islam –not devout
Is part of the Greendale 7: Jeff (The Narcissist/Leader), Annie (The Brains), Shirley (The Holy), Pierce (The one who could insult anyone for anything), Troy (The Innocent Football Player), Britta (The Wildcard), and Abed (The Cute/Scary Weird).
Obsessions: Inspector Spacetime (Doctor Who), Cougar Town, The Cape
Claymation: Abed finds out that his mother is not seeing him for Christmas, but decides to spend it with her new family. This causes Abed to spiral into a fantasy.
Believes everyone will leave him, just like his mother. Was often bullied.
He does not have a good time dealing with social cues, and has taught himself to ‘filter’ his thoughts with the help of his friends. Except when they teach him to insult ‘bitches’ causing him to malfunction
My favourite quote: “Nice shirt, it’d look better on a girl” (1:01-1:14)
Loves television: He did a lot of cliché’s that you do at college, like make out with the funniest girl at school, date two girls at once and screw up their names, really any cliché that fell into his lap.
Obsessed with Media:
Six Seasons and a movie!
Batman (he does dress as him later to figure out who broke his DVD)
^Above video is Halloween, however Abed DOES take the persona of Batman to figure out who broke his Batman DVD
Different Version of Abed
His friends try to convince him that it is a good idea to flirt with a girl, so he takes on the persona of Don Draper and his friend Jeff Winger
The teaser trailer of For a Few Paintballs More
Abed takes on the persona of Han Solo to defeat the rival college at paintball
This is his most predominant persona: Inspector Spacetime (the Doctor from Doctor Who). He later takes on this persona to attempt to explain why he got expelled from Greendale
-has a firm grasp on reality. He just understands television more. Believes it to have structure, logic, rules.
Compassionate – the ‘eating mushrooms’ and confessing your secrets incident
Stubborn/ Forgiving:
Pillow/Blanket fort –he refuses to stop hitting Troy because it is the last thing he’ll do with him. Jeff gives them ‘friendship’ hats to make them friends again. A ridiculous notion that he accepts just to get his friend back.
Frivolous and irresponsible
-Hires impressionists
-Britta pays for classes and buys a fancy camera
Neurosis

Abed’s Reaction to Daylight Saving’s Time
-Abed narrates Pierce eating a sandwich
-Annie causes Abed to 'squeal' when she goes on his imaginary show "Troy and Abed in the Morning" and redecorates his bedroom
-Abed films Annie when she is sleeping to get her reaction to wake up. This is not in a creepy way
The Dreamatorium: Abed’s creation that is capable of running 7,000 different simulatons by “rendering imaginary dreamscapes”
One day, while Troy, his best friend, is out, he allows Annie to partake in the simulation. She ends up ‘breaking’ him
