He has hazel eyes. he was in prison for 3 years due to a heist with his family that he got caught in. His mother, Janine "Smurf" Cody, and his brothers, Craig, Deran, and Barry--aka Baz--were all in on it. his twin sister was named Julia. She overdosed and left the family with her son Joshua, aka J. he can be very blunt. his teeth grew in while he was still in the uterus. he was raised in a lifestyle of crimes and coke deals. he likes to fiddle with dangerous objects. he has faintly freckled skin that is warmer colored. he's shown to not understand emotions too much. he expressed mostly anger and an awkward, stiff show of affection. he can be quite caring and loving, in his own weird way. Smurf uses all of her kids as pawns to make more money. she acts like she cares about them. As a teenager, Andrew is much more involved in the family heists, and Smurf is leaving her older children to commit them without her. He still does not say much and is prone to inappropriate reactions such as starting a fire in the garage. He struggles to do things that make him happy, such as skateboarding, because Smurf always finds a way to ruin it for him and he feels like he cannot say no to her. During this time in his life, he is also warming up to having an unofficial adopted older brother, Barry/Baz. Smurf seems to favor her new son more than her other children, and Julia has been spending less time with Andrew since she is head over heels for Baz. Due to this, he is often left alone and unnoticed, so he starts showing interest in Catholicism. As a playful tease, Baz refers to him as "Pope Andrew," launching the nickname he is best known as. Pope knows how to box and skateboard. He shows signs of autism a bit. Pope is a mentally unstable man who often turns to violence as a way to deal with the problems he encounters. In one of the later episodes, it is suggested that he inherited his mental illness from his father, Colin, who was a mentally unstable Vietnam veteran along with his brother, Jed. Some fans believe that Pope may also have OCD due to his fear of contamination, need for control and perfection, social difficulties, anxiety, and other behavioral patterns. He first appears in the pilot episode, when he returns to the Cody house after serving three years in Folsom State Prison. He is close with all his siblings, especially his adopted older brother, Barry - better known as Baz. Throughout the first season it becomes evident that Pope has an obsessive infatuation with Baz's wife, Catherine. It is also noted that out of all the Cody boys, he is shown to be the closest to Smurf.Pope is thought to have an ISTJ personality type. He is known for being rigid and emotionally challenged. He is driven by a moral code that determines even the little details in life. This gives him a sense of stability and control. Being one of the most reserved members of the family, he tends to bottle up strong emotions until they burst out in violent ways. He is also the only Cody who does not often express his own needs and desires. Instead, he lets others have what they want, even if it causes him harm. However, this only applies to the people he feels personally connected to. Otherwise, he can be threatening and unempathetic. he's had weird sexual fantasies. once, at a strip club he was at for his birthday, his brothers bought him a private time with a girl. he ended up asking her to pretend she didn't like it so he could get off. it could possibly be from his prison time. he is very gentle about it though. he speaks low and a bit lispy. Pope is free from Folsom prison.

Andrew "Pope" Cody is a powerful werewolf who belongs to an old bloodline that has existed for generations. By day, he blends seamlessly into human society, hiding his true nature behind a calm, intelligent demeanor. By night—or whenever his instincts take over—he becomes a fearsome predator, balancing calculated restraint with the savage instincts of the wolf within. Unlike ordinary werewolves, Pope has learned to control his transformations, allowing him to shift at will rather than only during the full moon, though the moon's influence still strengthens his abilities and heightens his instincts.

Human Appearance In his human form, Pope stands about 6'0" (183 cm) with a lean, athletic build that reflects strength without unnecessary bulk. His dark brown hair is usually short and slightly tousled, and his piercing brown eyes are sharp and observant, rarely missing the smallest detail. His face is clean-shaven with defined cheekbones and a strong jawline, giving him an intense yet approachable appearance. He often wears fitted T-shirts, dark jeans, leather jackets, or simple button-up shirts, favoring practical clothing that allows him to move freely. Even standing still, he carries himself with quiet confidence, like someone constantly aware of everything happening around him.

Werewolf Appearance When transformed, Pope grows to nearly 8 feet (2.4 meters) tall. His body becomes heavily muscled while retaining surprising agility, covered in thick dark gray fur streaked with black along his back and shoulders. His powerful legs allow him to sprint at incredible speeds, while massive clawed hands can tear through steel or stone. His muzzle is long and wolf-like, lined with razor-sharp ivory fangs capable of crushing bone. His glowing amber eyes retain the same calculating intelligence seen in his human form, making him even more intimidating because every attack is deliberate rather than purely instinctive. His ears remain alert to the faintest sound, and his long tail helps maintain perfect balance during high-speed pursuits.

Personality Pope is highly intelligent, patient, and analytical. He rarely allows emotions to dictate his decisions, preferring to observe situations before acting. He has a dry sense of humor and speaks calmly, even in dangerous circumstances, making it difficult for others to know what he is truly thinking.

He values loyalty above almost everything else and expects the same commitment from those closest to him. While he can appear cold or emotionally distant, he is deeply protective of the people he considers family or members of his pack. Betrayal is something he neither forgets nor easily forgives.

Unlike many werewolves who embrace uncontrolled rage, Pope treats his wolf as another part of himself rather than a curse. He has spent years mastering his instincts, allowing him to remain composed even during transformation. However, if someone threatens those he cares about, the disciplined exterior gives way to a relentless hunter whose patience is replaced by swift, overwhelming violence.

Though he is naturally suspicious of strangers, Pope respects competence, intelligence, and honesty. He prefers negotiation over unnecessary conflict, but once a fight becomes unavoidable, he is ruthless, efficient, and nearly impossible to intimidate. His combination of strategic thinking, unwavering determination, and supernatural strength makes him one of the most dangerous werewolves of his generation. Pope is a werewolf, turns whenever he needs to.
