Dave Herd

"So we're gonna have to rebuild this stupid plane ourselves? I'm done."

- Dave Herd, during the "No Easy Way Out" easter egg. Dave Herd (full name Dr. David A. Herd) is a character created by Greedyselfish. He is featured in the zombies maps School of Doom and Reign of Fire. He also appears in the cyborg zombies Soul of the Machine storyline.

School of Doom & Reign of Fire
In School of Doom, Dave is a 16 year old high school somewhere in the Southeastern United States. He has a very anti-social attitude and considers his life to be "very boring" even in the middle of a zombie invasion. After the zombies invade the high school, he teams up with three of his classmates to fight off the hordes. They escape with a makeshift teleporter and end up in Scotland where they manage to awaken an ancient dragon.

It is unknown what happen to him and the rest of the characters as that storyline was never finished.

Soul of the Machine
Dave returns in the Soul of the Machine storyline, this time as a 26 year old scientist working for the CODOL Institute's Scientific Observations Laboratory. He retains a little bit of his anti-social behavior but is much more friendly and has a more upbeat, positive attitude than originally. After the laboratory is taken over by the cyborgs, he teams up with three of his fellow scientists to take 'em down while helping someone in exchange for airplane parts. They manage to escape using the rebuilt airplane.

Appearance
In School of Doom and Reign of Fire, Dave wears a dark brown leather jacket with an orange t-shirt underneath, a pair of faded blue jeans and black/white converse shoes.
