“ | You fought the law, and the law won! | „ |
~ Edward Seymour II, while busting a student. |
Edward Seymour II is a supporting antagonist in the 2006 video game Bully.
He is one of the four Prefects of Bullworth Academy and often viewed as the most formal of the group. Although he is not corrupt as Seth Kolbe and Karl Branting, he takes his job as prefect less seriously than they do, not taking serious and abusing his position to an extent.
He was voiced by Ryan King.
Biography[]
Edward is considered to be the most informal one between the four prefects, constantly using metaphors such as “Hunting season is open!” and “Locked on target!” It is also possible that he took the job because it would look good on a resume rather than because he has any great interest in enforcing school rules. He explains how he loves the disciplinary part of being a prefect, and slips up by describing students as "victims".
He is quite arrogant, randomly blurting out his various accomplishments, most notably his silver medal obtained at tri-county wrestling competition. He also explains that Bullworth is his family's Alma Mater, and it is also stated that he is a member of the Bullworth Sailing & Yacht club. Considering his arrogance and wealth, it may be suggested that he was a preppy, before he was appointed a Prefect. He suffers from asthma, and possibly STDs as well: he considers himself to be a "stud-muffin" (suggesting that he sleeps around), and he is often heard talking about rashes or itches "down there".
Bully[]
Edward has no big role during the storyline, instead acting as a recurring force throughout the freeroam, like the other prefects.
Trivia[]
- Some of Edward's quotes are pop culture references:
- When he busts a student for misbehaving, he sometimes says "You fought the law, and the law won!" which is a reference to the 1965 song "I Fought the Law" by Sonny Curtis.
- He also references the 1979 film The Warriors by saying "come out to play-ay", in reference to the famous tagline "Warriors, come out and play-ay".
- Also, he can sometimes say “Get over here!” which is a reference to the famous line of Mortal Kombat character Scorpion.
