* AdaptationExpansion: The ending of [=L4D2=]'s "The Parish" saw the survivors escape in a military helicopter and left it at that. The ''CEDA'' series expands on that: [[spoiler: the four were interrogated and barely spared from being put down in the nick of time. The fates of the other three are left vague, but Nick is confirmed to have been drafted into [=CEDA=] due to his expertise against special infected and is being dispatched to Newburg]].

* CurbStompBattle: In ''Summary.'' Twenty agents were sent in to clear the Liberty Mall of [[spoiler: the Starer colony]]. ''Only three men came back.'' CEDA responds by [[spoiler: [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill fire-bombing the place]]]].
* EvilOldFolks: The first-documented (and best-known) Starer is an infected old woman.
* GameplayAndStoryIntegration: Enforced. Some aspects of the story are told through heavily-modded gameplay segments; usually in-service to contextualizing already-mentioned information.
* HiveMind: ''Summary'' implies that [[spoiler: Starers are part of one]], given other recorded instances [[spoiler: act exactly like the ''Liberty Mall'' hostile]].
* ImmuneToBullets: The few times [[spoiler: CEDA actually engages Starers]], their guns do absolutely nothing.

* StealthyMook: Exaggerated with [[spoiler: Starers]]. They're so good at blending into environments that they [[spoiler: spent a good chunk of the outbreak undetected and even managed to craft a whole nest out of the Liberty Mall]].
* StrongAndSkilled: [[spoiler: Starers are both outstanding predators and ImmuneToBullets]]. The only preventing them from being the ultimate foe is their innate passivity and that there are smarter Infected out there.

* ZombieAdvocate: Many of the tapes produced in the early stages of the Green Flu epidemic prohibit the killing of any infected individuals, stating that they are still human and that it is illegal. This attitude is later dropped as the infection continues to spread and mutate.

They are almost exactly like common infected, but unlike commons, they remember the languages they spoke prior to infection and retain the ability to speak, using it to manipulate and lure non-infected into attacks.]]

''CEDA | Civil Emergency Defense Agency'' is an Platform/YouTube AnalogHorror created by [[https://www.youtube.com/@For6bey For6bey]] set in the ''VideoGame/Left4Dead'' universe, primarily focusing on the events of ''VideoGame/Left4Dead2'' and its aftermath.
Most videos comprise of tapes produced by CEDA during the early days of the Green Flu epidemic... but, as they go on, we get glimpses not only further ahead in the timeline, but at things far more worse than a Witch or Tank.
The series' channel can be found on [=YouTube=] [[https://www.youtube.com/@CivilEmergencyDefenseAgency here.]]

!!This series provides examples of:
* DistantSequel: [[spoiler:The series itself seems to be set five years after ''Left 4 Dead 2''.]]
* GivenNameReveal: ''Authorized'' reveals the legal names of the ''VideoGame/Left4Dead2'' survivors: Wendell "Coach" Jones, Nicolas Murphy, Rochelle Aytes Langely and Ellis Gilmen.
* ParodyCommercial: ''The Vannah'' shows one for the titular hotel, which would later become an evacuation zone as the Green Flu got out of hand.
* StalkerWithoutACrush: [[spoiler:The Starer, a new type of infected that was discovered in the Liberty Mall incident, which stalks its victims from the dark until it decides whether to strike or leave.]]
