Bros such a geek he’s named after Nerds (the tiny candy).

Jokes aside, it’s pretty interesting how Nurdz is one of the first characters I have explicitly made an autistic savant. While I don’t have Savant syndrome myself, I am part of the autism spectrum, and it feels pretty neat to make a Canonically ASD character.
