Fan:Andy Conteh

Andrew "Andy" Conteh is a fanfictional character in the Digimon Cinematic Sagas. He is one of the main characters in the Legendary Tamers Saga.

Description
Tatsuya was born in 2006 to Julius and May Conteh. Even though his father was born in Sierra Leone, Andy himself was born in the United States. Andy disliked his siblings because he thought they got more attention from their partners. But after his failed attempts to get more attention made him angrier and more aggressive, he became a little bit antisocial, until he met Terriermon who appeared to him through a video game right at the same time he received his own D-Ark.

Andy is good at martial arts, but considers them merely a hobby. He also likes the Digimon, like Tatsuya Munemori, but due to his pacifistic nature, he originally wished to Terriermon’s friend rather than a DigiDestined or Tamer.

Digimon: Age of Tamers
Andy had already become a Tamer and Terriermon his partner when he first appeared. He was one of the few people who had managed to see the mysterious lights that appeared in New York which came from the red-colored D-Ark that was sent to Tatsuya Munemori and Calumon who Bio-Emerged into the real world.

Andy and Terriermon later witnessed how Vera Neidhardt and Renamon who had already attacked Gorillamon were about to attack Tatsuya and Guilmon. They interrupted Vera's attempts, but when Gorillamon attacked again, Terriermon went against Andy's wishes to stop it. Terriermon accidentally Digivolved into Galgomon and went rampage. After Tatsuya and Guilmon helped to stop Galgomon, Andy properly introduced himself Tatsuya and his friends. In the evening, Andy wanted to speak his father about the Digimon, but his father Julius wanted to concentrate on their family dinner.

On next day, Andy and Terriermon were picked along with the other Tamers by the men from the W.N.D.D: (Worldwide Network of the DigiDestined) led by Harold Thompson, Julius' old friend. Thompson explained that the Tamers and the Bio-Emerged Digimon were played all along by an organization named Digital Revolution that sought to take over the Digital World to be used for the evolution of the mankind. Calumon was revealed a catalyst for the power of Digivolution and Vera's father Ian Neidhardt was revealed to be the leader of the Revolution.

When the Revolutionaries opened a Digi-Gate to bring several Digimon into the real world to be brainswashed, Andy and Terriermon participated into the battle. This time Galgomon controlled his powers and was able to defeat a brainwashed Musyamon. But then Ian's attempts to bring even more Digimon mutated him into D.H.M. and three Ultimate Level Digimon Bio-Emerged. Andy first used "Recharge Plug-In Q" to reload Galgomon's gatling arms and then helped him to electrocute brainwashed Kinnaramon. After that Andy and the other Tamers defeated D.H.M.

After the battle, Andy was not recruited into the W.N.D.D. like the governments normally would insist, but made merely a consultant like the other Tamers. Keeping Terriermon and the other Partner Digimon hidden in an abandoned building in New York, Andy, Tatsuya and Vera occasionally visited the place and trained for future battles.

Trivia

 * Andy is mostly based on Henry Wong since he has Terriermon as his partner and his initial personality is that he is a pacifistic young man who fights only when it's absolutely necessary. His father's role with the Digimon, however, is different from that of Henry’s father Janyu Wong, since Janyu was one of the Monster Makers, but in the Cinematic Sagas, the Digimon already existed.
 * When the Cinematic Sagas counterpart for a Tamer partnered with Terriermon was planned for the film series, Andy's first name was initially chosen as the official name for the character.
