Story: Tyler grew up as an only child to a single mom. He never knew his dad. Not even so much as a name. And there had been very little interest in finding out more about him. All Tyler really knows is that the man found out Lindsey was pregnant, and a few days later he was gone. No notice, no returned phone calls, just forever gone. Tyler never cared to find out more about his dad, he had a good life with his mom. They were not rich, not by any means, but he never had to starve.
At the age of sixteen he scored his job at a dive bar, thanks to connections. Getting paid under the table for coat check ins. He eventually upgraded to bouncer and decided to learn how to tend a bar by shadowing the bartenders. He wasn't even old enough to drink himself when he worked his first shift behind the bar.
After a shift, where both he and his friends Jeremy and Cole had been drinking, they drove home and Cole wrapped the car around a tree. He died on site while both Tyler and Jeremy survived. A rift grew between the two childhood best friends, a rift that only grew when Tyler asked Jeremy to leave town with him. Jeremy declined. So Tyler quit his job and left, alone. Leaving everything behind.
Now he travels around the country. Never staying too long at the same place. Jumping in as bartender at different spots as he does so. It is not a glamorous life, but it is enough for him. Or so he convince himself. But eventually Tyler learn you can't run away from your past for forever.
Tyler has an issue with authority, does not like people who think they can tell him what to do. Quick to anger he can simply decide to punch someone. This has gotten him in trouble before. Spending nights in jail. He does not learn from his mistakes.
