Personality-
Tyler is a little bit of a simple man. He enjoys the small things in life like good food, good music and good television. Well, lets rephrase that. He likes all food, late 80's heavy metal, cartoons and cop shows. For things that he doesn't like, however, he shows great discontent for them. He'll let you know instantly when he doesn't like something. He can be really blunt and to the point with something he doesn't like.
Tyler is easy to get along with, but he isn't overly friendly. He's a charming guy with an incredible sense of humor. He always like to make tense situation a little light with some kind of goofy or off the wall joke. But some of these jokes get to be inappropriate at times with a lot of sexual innuendos and overtones.
If you happen to befriend Tyler, then you have gotten yourself a rather good friend. He's loyal to those that are loyal to him. He's also a very dependable person, he's the guy that you call at 2 in the morning to bail you out of jail. But if you stab him in the back, he'll just turn his back to you in your time of need.
And being the charming guy that he is, he'll use it on the opposite sex many times. Tyler can tend to be a bit of a womanizer, but if you tell him that, he'll just shrug and say he likes sex. Deep down, though, Tyler would like to settle down with a good wife and a couple of sons. But for now, he's going to sow some wild oats.
He's also used his charm in the bad way, lying, he's pretty damn good at it. While he doesn't lie all the time, only when he needs to. Tyler could tell you that his name was George W. Bush and do it in such a way that you would actually believe him.
Tyler is also one sarcastic bastard, but in a mean way. Usually, he won't say anything sarcastic, but if he doesn't like you, he's going to be the biggest sarcastic prick you've ever met and sometimes he can go a little overboard with it.
Tyler isn't a angry person and doesn't get angry quick. With most things, he'll let them roll off his back with some either mean sarcastic comment or rude joke. But if you do manage to anger him, you might wanna duck. When he is in a foul mood, Tyler can quickly resort to punching you directly in the nose if you happen to look at him the wrong way. Because of this, Tyler could punch some totally innocent person who just said the wrong thing at the wrong time. He won't bust into a massive rage and start brutally kicking someone's ass, he just likes to punch things when he's pissed.
Saying Tyler can be stubborn is one massive understatement. He's a strong willed male, so he's going to be hard-headed, maybe even more so than your average male. He doesn't give in or give up without putting up one hell of a fight. Once he sets his mind to something, he's going to do it. Tyler is that kind of guy that you can never get him to change his mind on anything, even when he's wrong. Like if he believed if 2+2 was 5, good luck trying to tell him it's actually 4. But he's not that dumb.

Abilities/Powers/Skills-
Weaponary Innate Capability - Tyler has a very special kind of... special power. No, that he can use special in the same sentence twice. Tyler's got the ability of being able to use a any kind of weapon with out any kind of training, which he has nicknamed 'Ninjaism' but the actual name is Weaponary Innate Capability. Once he picks up a wepon, he'll display mastery skill levels with the weapon with an increased damage level through the history of that weapon, even showing off the martial arts or fighting skills that the previous owner, if any. For example, if he were to use a katana, he would be able to use it perfectly for offense and defense along with any martial skills that the previous owner may have had.
This ability also extends to guns, bows and throwing weapons. Any kind of gun that he were to use, he would have perfect accuracy with it. With a bow and arrow, he would be able to draw his arrow and fire it very quickly and still maintain perfect accuracy.
Limits-
Weaponary Innate Capability - Due to his short term memory problems, Tyler can not remember how to use the weapon once he has set it down, minus simple weapons such as guns and some blunt objects (i.e. baseball bats) For example, after Tyler has dropped or put down a Katana, he would no longer have the mastered skill level of that weapon. He must remain in constant contact with the weapon for his ability to work.
For Tyler to use his ability of Weaponary Innate Capability, he must use a weapon that was once previously used by someone who had a decent understanding of how the weapon works. If Tyler were to use a brand new set of nunchucks or throwing stars, he would either hit himself in the face or have no aim what so ever.
Appearance-
Tyler isn't a muscular being, but he's in decent shape. He stand 6'1" and weighs about 220 pounds. He's got a good set of wide and broad shoulders that can give him an intimidating look. He has a little baby fat around his waist, but it isn't very noticeable.
Tyler's got light brown hair that he likes to keep short, never letting it get long at all. He doesn't have any noticeable facial hair, but he isn't clean shaven either. He keeps a small amount of stubble, a little less than a five o'clock shadow because he thinks it makes him look like a bad ass.
In terms of clothing, Tyler wears what he likes and he likes to be comfortable. He's a big fan of jeans and t-shirts. His jeans are usually a pair of boot cut blue jeans. They're far from baggy, but not tight either. He likes plain cotton t-shirts, either black or gray in color. He's a simple man, he likes to dress simple too.
Alignment- Good
Team Affiliation- The Company
Birthplace- Boulder City, Nevada
Mother- Marissa Michaels, 56, Civilian
Father- Dean Gilmore, 58, Civilian
Siblings- N/A
History-
Dean Gilmore was a con man who called Las Vegas his home. Marissa Michaels was a girl from Reno that wanted nothing more than to be a showgirl. In the summer of 1980, these two got together one night. Nine months later, Tyler Shea Michaels was born in a small town 20 miles outside of Vegas.
Unfortunately, Tyler's father Dean didn't stick around past the 2nd trimester. For the first few years of his life, Marissa had no other choice but to bring her infant son to work with her. With a newborn son, Marissa never got to live her dream of being a Vegas showgirl, yet she worked two different jobs, both of them as a waitress.
Tyler's school years went by normally, without much incident. While Tyler was a little bit of a social butterfly when he was a teenager, he had a different girlfriend every other two months during high school. Like most of the popular kids in school, Tyler played sports although he never excelled at them. There was an incident in a high school football where Tyler and a player from the opposing team butted heads in a brutal fashion. Tyler suffered a nasty concussion. His concussion passed, but his temporal lobe, where memories are stored, suffered some minor permanent damage. While Tyler doesn't suffer from amnesia, he does have short term memory problems.
After graduation, most of his friends went off to college, but Tyler join the Police Academy. Since he was a child, Tyler had always wanted to be a cop like the ones that he saw on television when he was a kid. While his short term memory problems did present some obstacles, it didn't stop him from becoming a police officer. It also didn't stop him from acing the detective's exam.
But during his time on the force, Tyler and others noticed some very strange things. With any firearm in the police's gun locker, Tyler had amazing accuracy, hitting the bullseye ten out of ten times. With any melee weapons that were issued, Tyler showed amazing skills that even the older officers have ever seen. This was the time when Tyler discovered his special ability. With any kind of weapon, he would have skills that would take years for others to even come close to. Without any kind of official name for it, Tyler nicknamed it "ninjaism".
After discovering his new special ability, Tyler wanted something. He had only been a detective for a few years, but it wasn't satisfying him the way it had before. Maybe it was his new found ability that he had that made him want something more, so after some major thinking, Tyler had turned in his badge and his gun. After quitting the force, Tyler was recruited and joined the Company, helping bag and tag some not so nice speicals
Anything else?-
His favorite weapons to use are a pair of nunchucks, a 9mm pistol and when his feeling extra Ninja Gaiden-ey, a katana.
Sample RP-
His nunchucks were black in color, but made of solid oak. They were old, but they were strong. When Tyler bought them, the guy told him that they once were Bruce Lee's. Tyler highly doubted it, but somebody bad ass must have used them before. Very rarely could Tyler pull off things that he did when he held these nunchucks. He grabbed both wooden handles, but he let one fall out of his hand.
At first, he just simply twirled them in a circle. Nothing more and nothing less. He watched with intent as the free handle of one of his favorite weapons went in a circle. With a smile, he began twirling it in a beautiful fashion. Any and every trick that could be pulled off with the popular martial arts weapon was being done with nothing but ease. The motions and twirls that Tyler made was truly poetry in motion.
The flashy style soon ended as Tyler twirled his own body around. He poetry in motion stopped as Tyler swung with pair of nunchucks with deadly intent. With nothing but ease, the free oak handle went right through a clay pot, shattering in into a million pieces.
"I'm like Batman disguised as Bruce Lee. I'm awesome." Tyler said as he went back to simply twirling the free handle of the nunchucks in his hand.
