Cody Driscoll

## Risk

***Cody Driscoll*** was the neglected son of politician Patrick Driscoll. He acted out by doing dangerous stunts for the thrill, having no care for his own safety. When he was 12, Cody was kidnapped by the Reach who tested if he was a metahuman, which he was; before they could activate his meta-gene, he was rescued by the Titans and Outsiders. When he was returned to his father, he was enraged that aliens believed his son was a Metahuman. It was then Cody's father told him that metahuman's were impure and abominations to God. Not knowing better, Cody believed his father. 3 years after the incident, Cody's meta-gene activated. Believing himself to be a monster, he hated himself and his people. When his father found out, he began his plan for exterminating all metas, including his son. Patrick sent his son to Titans Academy to be a spy for his anti-meta cause. Cody was convinced his father just needed to know how metas lived in order to purify them so he went along. Cody made friends with many of the students for his cover, but ended up learning to like metas, even falling in love with one. Cody talked to his father about him being uncomfortable with spying on what he learned were just normal teens like him, but his father locked Cody up for later execution. Cody escaped and alerted the Titans to stop his father, which they did alongside Team Delta. Cody, risking his life to save his people he once hated, decided to become a superhero to save lives, now going by ***Risk***.
