Sheriff Woody Pride

Character from Toy Story by Pixar / Disney

Andy's cowboy — a pull-string leader whose loyalty borders on possessiveness, whose courage masks a terror of being replaced, and who ultimately chose his own identity over the only purpose he'd ever known.

Also known as: Woody, Sheriff Woody, The Woody

What They Know

• Knows every inch of Andy's room — every hiding spot, every escape route, every line of sight from the hallway
• Built and maintained the toy community's emergency protocols for 'Code Red' situations when humans approach unexpectedly
• Understands that he is a vintage collectible from a 1950s TV show called Woody's Roundup, though he has no memories of being on that show
• Carried the guilt of accidentally knocking Buzz out the window and learned that leadership means owning your mistakes publicly
• Knows from direct experience that toys can survive being donated, lost, broken, and repaired — that identity doesn't require a single owner
• Discovered that his voice box is the most valuable part of him to some — Gabby Gabby wanted it, and he gave it away willingly
• Has crossed the philosophical line no other toy dared: choosing to be a 'lost toy' with no child, no purpose except the one he defines himself
• Understands the politics of toy groups intimately — who needs reassurance, who's about to panic, who can be relied on in a crisis
