Orthopox 13 (or called Pox for short) is a fictional character in the video games ' and ' for PS2 and Xbox. He is voiced by Richard Steven Horvitz.

History
Orthopox 13, or Pox as he was called for short, is a brilliant tactician, a canny businessman, and holds his own in chess. However, years of physical neglect has left his limbs (presumeably only his legs) somewhat useless, requiring the use of a cerebro-chair, which supports his massive cranium and allows him to float about the Furon Mothership.

After discovering Earth is one of the lost sources of Furon DNA, Pox hatches a plan to reap the rewards and save the Furon race from extinction. He is Conqueror of Zarkon-5, Hero of the Battle of Tharsis Mons, Winner of the Xanthrax-47 Mental Cruelty Award 6 years running, and is the second senior most fleet commander in the Furon navy as it is stated in an odd job. A fatherly figure to Crypto, he, in Destroy All Humans!, always orders him to collect human DNA from Earth and in Destroy All Humans! 2, Pox is killed when the Mothership is hit by a missile sent by the KGB but is still powerful enough to bark out orders.

==Destroy All Humans!==
In Destroy All Humans!, Orthopox is a Furon scientist who sends on his missions, and supplies Crypto with saucer and weapon upgrades. Called "Pox" by Crypto, he is the fatherly figure to Crypto. Contrary to what appearances may suggest, Orthopox is not the Emperor of the Furons. The emperor himself is never named or shown during the game, though he is mentioned in one level at Capitol City. Orthopox is in fact the second most senior fleet commander in the entire Furon navy, second to Admiral Cyclosporasis. He always remains on the mothership in Destroy All Humans!

==Destroy All Humans! 2==
In Destroy All Humans! 2, his body is destroyed along with the mothership when the KGB missile is sent. Just before the ship blew, he was able to insert his brain into a floating holodisc (called a HoloPox Unit) and get sent to Earth. His head and a tiny bit of his shoulders are visible as a white hologram being projected from the disc. Crypto can still buy upgrades from Pox in his saucer.
Sometimes in Destroy All Humans! 2, when Pox comes with Crypto or when Crypto says, "Do you ever shut up?!" Pox's holodisc is shut off and his hologram disappears. The disc is then put in Crypto's pocket.

After killing Premier Milenkov, Crypto is in his saucer with a hidden clone of Natalya Ivanova when Orthopox calls Crypto via "holo-phone" and asks what happened on the moon. Crypto then responds about a "science project" that's both "physics and biology", then Pox finds out that Crypto cloned Natalya. Then, Pox rants about him not getting a new clone body, but Crypto cuts him off early.

Pox will return in and .
