Andrew is the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Graves as a result of a teen pregnancy. He was born two years before his sister Ashley, and their mother tasked him with Ashley's care. However, when he was very little, both he and Ashley were under the care of their grandparents before being placed back with their parents. His grandfather made his father take DNA tests to ensure Andrew and Ashley were his children. Due to their parents' negligence, Andrew was both a brother and the primary caretaker to Ashley. The two were practically inseparable growing up, and combined with Andrew's role as brother and caregiver, led to a codependent and toxic relationship between them. Andrew was claimed to be the "easy child", which led to his parents neglecting him and his sister. Despite their favouritism, he was neglected. During childhood their parents were still absent throughout his childhood, and he frequently stayed home alone with Ashley. His parents never helped him with chores such as grocery shopping and cooking and depended on him to care for himself and his sister. He was treated with birthday parties and it's implied that he was very sociable, with his friends being invited to his parties and many girls, especially Ashley's friends, falling for him.

Andrew often felt left out from his peers due to his parents not having enough money for toys that he could play with alongside his friends. Andrew still lives in poverty even as an adult.

Andrew was a very studious child, building ambition for great things after acing a test when he was around 9. However, Ashley's constant interruptions and clamouring for his attention killed that ambition in him.

Mr. Graves was absent in his son's life. Even at one point called Andrew by a different nickname, "Anders". Andy regards his father in a negative light due to his dormant nature.

He has a toxic, codependent relationship with his sister: they enable each other in their insanity, which very often borders on its extreme nature, such as threatening or actual violence, lengthy conversations about suicide, murder, assault and battery, incestuous feelings, cannibalism, etc. His behaviour is often sardonic and cynical, often replying sarcastically or in an exasperated manner. He finds his sister frustrating to converse with, and his being held captive with her only makes this resentment grow. However, around strangers, Andrew is very good at hiding this codependency, wanting to appear like a normal young man. He romanticises death regularly.

He and Ashley are responsible for the death of Ashley's classmate when Andrew was 10 and Ashley was 8. They locked the girl, Nina, in a crate overnight, where she died from complications due to asthma and being unable to breathe. No one found out about it, and Andrew and Ashley made a blood oath to keep this information to themselves.

Andrew is heavily traumatised by his mother's neglect and having to look after Ashley, to the point he despises her for simultaneously leaving Ashley in his care but criticising him for every decision he made for her wellbeing or decisions he made to put himself first.

He regularly smokes cigarettes, ironically something he was heavily against as a child.

Andrew hates children, and would likely never have any in the future.
