Cody was a creamy male dire wolf pup maimed by Dunleavy MacHeath with the intention of placing him in the Sacred Watch who would patrol the Sacred Ring in Beyond the Beyond. His tail was removed, and his footpads cut off on two of his paws.
History[]
The Outcast[]
Cody was introduced as a pup that was forcibly maimed when Hamish spoke with Coryn about the MacHeaths. Coryn is shocked when he sees Cody for the first time. Dunleavy calls him a fine gnawer, but Cody's gnawing skills are clumsy and unusual unlike any other gnaw wolf. His unnamed father was exiled from the clan, and his mother, Gyllbane, was not allowed to go near him, nor was he allowed to know that she was his mother. It was for this reason that Gyllbane betrayed the MacHeaths and warned Coryn of Nyra coming to kill him.
The Golden Tree[]
Cody escaped from being slaughtered by Dunleavy MacHeath and his new mate Brygdylla after their transformation into vyrrwolves because a maimed pup was worthless to them, thus apparently leaving him and Gyllbane the only surviving MacHeaths not to join Dunleavy and Brygdylla in their madness. When the owls and dire wolves conspire to attack all that remained the MacHeaths, who have allied themselves with Nyra, Cody is the one designated to steal "Book of Kreeth" for the purpose of eliminating the possibility of Nyra wielding nachtmagen against them. Cody, however, was killed in the battle by a slash to the neck but succeeded in securing the book. Gyllbane was heartbroken when she saw her son lying on top of the book but she found joy in the fact that she witnessed his spirit travel on the star trail and arrive at the Cave of Souls.
The War of the Ember[]
Cody is mentioned but not seen. He is mentioned only as the son of Namara (Formerly 'Gyllbane'), and his blood still stains the Book of Kreeth, which is hidden in Otulissa's cupboard.
Trivia[]
- According to Dunleavy MacHeath, Cody is the great-grandson of a female MacDuncan. His MacDuncan ancestry might have been the reason he was singled out by his chieftain to be maimed, as Dunleavy could have thought the MacDuncan wolves of the Sacred Watch might be more inclined to accept a descendant of one of their own.
