'Tramps like us, baby we were born to run"
Appearance:
Tyler stands at 6'0 dead. He is prone to changing his hair a lot. At the moment, it's short at the back and longer in the front, long enough to be sweeping against his eyebrows. His Italian heritage gives him his olive complexion as well as his dark hair and eyes. Tyler has a pretty solid build. He's not a huge hulking man, but neither is he willowy or wiry. Tyler has a light amount of visible muscle on his body. Running around as one of the Black Cats tends to keep him in shape, but he's not one to be hitting the gym everyday. As for his dress sense, Tyler generally favours t-shirts and loose fitting pants, staying near the darker end of the colour spectrum.

Personality:
The majority of people who know Tyler would describe him as being laid back. For the most part, this is true. Tyler is very laid back and has a very long temper with the people around him. Rather than getting angry at setbacks, Tyler takes them in his stride and changes the plan accordingly. With his patience, Tyler stays calm in a crisis, and is pretty good at keeping a cool head when the situation starts to heat up. Tyler is intensely loyal to his friends and often goes above and beyond to make them happy. He has a very dry sense of humour and can be very sarcastic with his friends. Tyler is a very principled person and he holds true to his beliefs. He doesn't like to be proven wrong about things, but he will, eventually, own up and be the bigger person, adapting his world view to fit with the new information.
Beneath the cool and calm exterior, however, is an entirely different man. There's an undercurrent of anger that pushes him forward, bordering on rage sometimes. Angry that he couldn't protect the people he cared about, angry that the system let them down, let him down. He's a very angry man. While usually easy going and sociable, Tyler has been known to pull away, falling into bouts of deep guilt and self loathing. In these moments, he is prone to lash out at people, which is why he pulls away. He doesn't want his friends to think he doesn't like them or see him like that. He's all about protecting his friends, even if that means isolating himself. With people who have wronged him, the patience goes and they just get the anger. And then it is really not pretty.
Talents:
Computer Hacking A somewhat nerdy child, Tyler had originally been obsessed with improving his own devices, eventually moving from hardware to software. When he first caught a hint of something bigger going on he began studying ethical hacking, evolving his skills into something the authorities would deem much less ethical.
Hand to Hand Combat Tyler practiced kickboxing and is proficient in hand to hand combat.
Listening It might not be the most impressive of talents, but Tyler is a good listener when it comes to his friends and family, often offering himself as a shoulder to cry on
Weaknesses:
Forgiveness While his loyalty is commendable, it can blind him to the faults of the people around him and as such he finds himself giving those close to him one too many chances to prove themselves.
Lying A pre-planned lie will fall apart as soon as it gets to Tyler. He can improvise a lie, just don't tell him the story before hand.
Insomnia Tyler suffers from bouts of insomnia, meaning that there are times when he's running on 2-3 hours sleep.
Fears:
Losing this family that he found the same way he lost the last one.

"It's hard to miss the way her eyes light up the room and still the air"
History:
If Tyler had been told even ten years ago that he would be a vigilante taking on a corrupt state, he would have laughed in your face. He didn't have a hard life, quite the opposite in fact. Born Tyler Uxbridge, he had a pretty comfortable upbringing as an only child, his parents both politicians. As a child, Tyler had a handful of close friends that he held on to, placing a high value on all their relationships. He was a quietly content kid and grew up in blissful ignorance of the corruption that existed on his door step. His first notion that something was wrong was when a friend of his, a boy called Adam Marks, disappeared. When he asked after the missing boy, his teachers told him to forget about it, his parents told him to leave it be. As he was only a child at the time, despite his gut instinct that something was wrong, he trusted the adults and put it behind him, figuring that the boy in question had probably left school and moved elsewhere, no harm no foul.
It turned out that it was losing someone much more precious to him would be the catalyst to him joining Black Cat. As he grew up, it was harder to keep him away from the whispers of corruption, but he had a reasonably normal life. He grew taller, his voice broke, the normal stuff. He also fell head over heels for a girl at school. Clara Jones was the centre of his universe. It was ridiculous how smitten Tyler was with Clara. He'd have done anything she asked of him. Not that it was all one sided. Clara adored Tyler as well. At seventeen, as far as Tyler was concerned, Clara was The One. While his parents were putting more pressure on him to choose a career, Clara was his sanctuary. He'd escape for weekends with her and was happier than he had ever remembered.
His parents disagreed. Clara wasn't from the 'right stock' for their precious boy. There were many arguments between Tyler and his parents about Clara. Soon, though, his parents realised that they were losing the argument and as far as Tyler was aware, they dropped the subject. And then Clara didn't answer her phone. Fearing the worst, Tyler headed to the snicket where they would meet. He found her, but she was dead, the wounds barely dried. And the police did nothing. His parents refused to step in and the police did nothing. Tyler always suspected that his parents had something to do with it, but he didn't want to go down that route. He began researching the police. Finding the overwhelming evidence of deep corruption, and facing being cut off from the family money, Tyler knew it was do or die. So he did. He sought out Black Cat and joined their group, completely disowning his family name. He took Clara's last name as his own, and adopted Adam's name as his middle name.
