Professor Elvin Gadd (usually referred to Professor E. Gadd), is a supporting character throughout the Mario series. He is an incredible inventor and the head of Gadd Science Inc. He speaks in an unrecognizable jumble of words and sounds when he talks to other characters.
He made his first appearance in Luigi's Mansion, in which he introduces Luigi to the problem of the ghosts in the mansion and gives him the Poltergust 3000 to enable him to rescue his brother, Mario.
Super Mario Sunshine
The professor has another fairly minor role in the story of Super Mario Sunshine, where E. Gadd invents the F.L.U.D.D. for Mario's use in cleaning up Isle Delfino, which was caused when Shadow Mario (actually Bowser Jr. in disguise) obtained the professor's magic paintbrush.
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, he is the owner of the Starbeans Cafe in Beanbean Kingdom. If Mario collects enough beans for the coffee maker, he would test the coffee and give his inventions to Mario, one at a time.
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
In Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, he is the inventor of the time machine that led to the capture of Princess Peach. The younger E. Gadd can be found in the past, after helping him he said something about going to a haunted mansion in Boo Woods. Both the past and present versions of the professor thought of the Hydrogush 4000 during the course of this game (the past E. Gadd used it to extinguish the flames on his laboratory, while the older incarnation used it to pump baby tears into the various time holes to get rid of all shroobified objects).
Mario Party 6
In his only appearance in a Mario Party game, Professor E. Gadd has his own stage called E. Gadd's Garage in Mario Party 6. Professor E. Gadd operates many machines including a giant fan that sucks coins from other players, a machine that launches orbs on random spaces on the board, and, most commonly, his teleporter machine. E. Gadd also runs the Lab Brats mini-game where the player must find other characters within the time limit. E. Gadd will rank the player on how fast the completed the maze.
Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon
E. Gadd returns as a main character in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon. After figuring out that the Dark Moon has been destroyed and the ghosts soon turn hostile, he enlists the help of Luigi to once again help him in his ghost-hunting quest. E. Gadd also stays in his Bunker named E. Gadd's Bunker to protect himself from the ghosts.
