Physical appearance
Dr. Vedder is an adult man with brown hair and brown eyes. At Cascade Research, he wears a white lab coat.

Vedder initially has light brown skin, but in his second appearance, he has fair skin.

History
At Cascade Research, Dr. Vedder and Dr. Forbes review the footage of the explosion of Big Baby I, a thermonuclear device that they set off in a volcano to disguise as a volcanic eruption. The lab is developing Big Baby II. Ezekiel Rage and his people break into the laboratory and steal Big Baby II. Rage knocks down Dr. Vedder with the Book of Rage. Dr. Forbes helps him up and tells him that Rage stole Big Baby II.

Vedder and Forbes later get out of government work, and begin research on tectonic activity. At Meteor Valley State Park, the two prepare to descend two miles into the earth's crust, but Ezekiel Rage and his people arrive. Rage uses their equipment to lower a warhead two miles beneath the earth's crust, and he then has Vedder and Forbes pushed into hole and collapses the equipment on top of them, killing them. However, the Quest Team uses time travel to prevent these events from happening, and in the new timeline, Dr. Vedder and Dr. Forbes are not attacked at Meteor Valley State Park, and their research proceeds as planned.
