Tyler "Hatchet" Johnson

Tyler "Hatchet" Johnson is a high-risk asset mercenary and a High Value Target, located on Horizon's Oil Rig. He will only appear on Hard difficulty or above; he will quickly spawn in to defend the Oil Rig from Subject 106. 
In combat, he uses a shotgun modified to fire incendiary rounds. Uniquely, if Johnson is grabbed or killed, a grenade will activate on his body, automatically exploding after several seconds. 
== Biography ==
Tyler Johnson was a notorious bank robber, sentenced to death after a bank robbery where he was either responsible for the deaths of or directly killed dozens of police officers. However, Horizon desired a high risk asset like him, given his prowess in fighting back an entire police force. Johnson's death was faked, likely during his execution, and was given a clean slate to work with Horizon. However, an explosive bomb was placed into Johnson as a means of control over him.
Johnson's missions are near-suicidal to anyone else, but he has managed to return every time, but not without leaving a trail of collateral damage behind him.
True to his intel, Johnson's incendiary shotgun has the potential to cause serious collateral damage amongst HECU units in the close confines of the Oil Rig. The bomb planted in Johnson activates regardless if he dies or if he's grabbed.
== Official Description ==
Johnson was a notorious death row inmate, sentenced for his role in a brutal bank robbery that left dozens of police officers dead.
However, the Horizon Corporation saw potential in Johnson's combat prowess and made a deal with him. Horizon faked his death so he could start a new life as a mercenary. To ensure his cooperation, he was implanted with an explosive device. 
He is often deployed alone on high risk missions. Despite the high likelihood of death each time, Johnson always managed to survive, though not without causing significant collateral damage.
