It has been too long that we've been left here starving.
We must work together to take our revenge on those who wronged us.
We must waddle forward. We must fight!
We must take a stand and take the bread that we-

Description

The Nerd Duck is the main antagonist of the Duck Hunt Event and Ducky Revenge Event, later turning into an ally to the T.D.S. Organization. With him leading the ducks in both of his main events, he can be considered the de facto leader of the ducks and potentially the Duck Realm as a whole.

The Nerd Duck is a smart character which has invented many things. Most notable of his inventions are his mechs, which are the two Ducky D00M mechs, II and III, and also a Mecha Bunny. These mechs are used by him to fight others, as he is not a particularly effective fighter without them. His other inventions include the P3NGU and a Bunny Sentry[5], which ends up being stolen by the T.D.S. Organization. He also shows his intellect through other means, like his work on merging the God Cube during Null & Void Event.

Personality

The Nerd Duck's defining trait is his intelligence. This leads to his dialogue often being used to explain complex things to other characters. During the Ducky Revenge Event, his intelligence also impressed Professor V, causing her to ask him to work with her, something he agreed to.

He is a good leader, as he has managed to convince ducks to help him reach his goals in both the Duck Hunt Event and the Ducky Revenge Event. He also managed to get these ducks to build his inventions for him.

The Nerd Duck has been shown to use any means necessary to achieve his goals. This is best seen in Ducky Revenge Event, where he sends out ducklings[6] and elderly to fight the T.D.S. Organization. He also ends up sending out members of his army with explosives strapped to them, and sees no issue with doing so.[7] It can be assumed such actions are why he ends up getting labelled a war criminal by other characters.[8]

Abilities & Characteristics

Other
Intellect: Nerd Duck is shown to be quite intelligent, as he has invented giant mechs, worked on merging the God Cube fragments and helped get the T.D.S. Organization agents back from the Nil Zone.

Giant Mechs: Nerd Duck uses giant mechs as his main method of fighting others. They are, like his other inventions, created with the help of other ducks.

Story

Duck Hunt

The Nerd Duck forms an army of ducks and penguins to attack the T.D.S. Organization as revenge for what happened to his father, Ducky D00M, in the Spring 2020 Event.[1] He attacks a harvest that the T.D.S. Organization was managing with his army of aquatic avians and a giant Ducky D00M II mech, but ends up being defeated by them. He then retreats and ends up in the Duck Realm.

Ducky Revenge

The Duck Realm stops receiving bread ever since the events of the Operation I.C.E Event, leading to the ducks there starving. The Nerd Duck decides to check up on the portal in the toilet to see if it is active again. There, he finds out the portal is still broken, however, he stumbles upon a God Cube fragment in the trash, placed there by the Narrator.[9]

After this discovery, he shows what he has found to other ducks, then reveals his plan to them, which involved an all out attack on the T.D.S. Organization who were blamed for the bread not being delivered. He quickly mobilizes an army and gets multiple ducks to start constructing the Ducky D00M III and a few Bunny Sentries. He then starts a speech which is interrupted by three T.D.S. Organization agents.

This leads to a fight between Nerd Duck and the T.D.S. Organization. During this fight, the Bunny Sentries end up getting stolen by the T.D.S. Organization and used against the ducks. The fight ends with the T.D.S. Organization first fighting the Ducky D00M III, then the Mecha Bunny destroying both.

Null & Void

Night 1

The Nerd Duck helps Professor V work on the Project God Merger, which involved merging the God Cube fragments the T.D.S. Organization has collected and merging them all for better control over them. This ends up failing and the fragments become unstable, opening up various rifts to the Nil Zone. The crisis is averted once the Rift Walker arrives and takes the God Cube fragments, but he also ends up sending away some T.D.S. Organization agents.

Night 2 & 3

After the Commander, Scout, Minigunner and Dispatcher end up getting banished into the Outer Nil Zone by the Rift Walker, he and Professor V start working on a way to get them out of there. Eventually at the end of Blind Faith, they successfully open a portal behind the T.D.S. Organization agents, taking three of them back to Outpost 16. The Dispatcher ends up stuck there due to her being taken away by Lord Exo.

Notes

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 "Ducky D00M's son is out for revenge and sending an army of ducks to steal your crops!" ― v1.2.0 in-game update log
  2. ↑ Name based on the Mecha Bunny + Nerd Ducky Mini Plush and the Mecha Bunny Cowboy skin, both of which use this name to describe the mech.
  3. ↑ Name derived from Ducky D00M III and is purely used to make it easier to tell apart from the original Ducky D00M. Name is never used in-game, it is just Ducky D00M.
  4. ↑ "P3NGU is the latest addition to Nerd Duck's inventions." ― P3NGU's description in its Logbook.
  5. ↑ 5.0 5.1
    Ducks can be seen creating a Bunny Sentry, meaning they are most likely invented by the Nerd Duck. They ended up getting taken by the T.D.S. Organization
  6. ↑ "A new duckling filled with gentle quacks and boundless possibilities." ― Duck's description in its Logbook
  7. ↑ "They strapped a bomb to a duck! Don't you think that's pretty extreme?!" ― Dispatcher on Wave 13 (Bathroom Approach)
    "NOT AT ALL!" ― Nerd Duck on Wave 13 (Bathroom Approach)
