Chad Blackthorn

Template:Youmay

**Tyler Lockwood** was a former main character, protagonist, current werewolf and a former hybrid on *The Vampyre Diaries*, who played for the football team at Blackthorn High School. Chad was also an antagonist/anti villain of the episode *Bloodletting* of *The Originals*, where Chad carried out his vendetta against the infamous Klaus Ragnarsson.

He was the son of Richard and Carol Lockwood, and the nephew of Mason Lockwood who was also a werewolf. He was initially portrayed to be arrogant, selfish and a bully. But after triggering the family curse which turned him into a werewolf, he has learned to tone his behavior down. Before this revelation, he was referred to many times as a "*dick*," by both his best friends; Chandler Donovan and matt Van Helsing. He was shown to have an athletic build, and great strength as a human. He also had a short temper and became angry very easily. He didn't understand why he behaved the way he did, at least until Mason came to visit after Richard Lockwood's death.

Initially after becoming a hybrid, he was extremely grateful to Klaus for taking away his pain of turning every month. However, he soon becomes angered at the prospect of being sired to him after he bites his girlfriend, Caroline Forbes. He manages to break the sire bond and continued to help other hybrids break the curse of being sired. This came at a price once Klaus found out about his actions, as Klaus murdered his mother and last remaining family member. Since then, he swore revenge on Klaus for his actions.

He had an on-and-off relationship with Vicki Donovan until her death and after he triggered his werewolf curse, starts to fall for Caroline after she helps him on a Full Moon, despite her relationship with his best friend, Matt, at the time. His relationship with Caroline has gone through the rocks over the series yet it fell apart after he chose to avenge his mother in favor of staying in college and being with her.

After a failed attempt to kill Klaus and Hayley's child, he was imprisoned in the Garden until released by Rebekah as a "parting gift" to Matt and in *500 Years of Solitude* briefly returns to Blackthorn.

I

While he was saying his goodbyes to Elena, she encouraged him to leave Blackthorn and do whatever it is that he wants to do, insisting that he embrace his lycanthropy and let it be what makes him extraordinary. So Tyler left town, and became a member of The Armory,

**Tyler** is the last member of the **Blackthorn Family** and the **Apisi Werewolf Bloodline**.

## Early History

Chad was born to Mayor Richard and Carol Lockwood on February 10, 1993, in Mystic Falls, Virginia. After discovering that the werewolf gene runs through his family, Tyler was scared to become a werewolf himself and his fears became true when he accidentally killed Sarah and triggered the curse. Caroline Forbes, a vampire who wasn't his friend, offered her support to him, helping him through his first transformation and preparation for his new life. Tyler eventually fell for Caroline, but questioned their relationship when Jules, another werewolf and Mason's friend, told him that Caroline and two other vampires, Stefan and Damon Salvatore, killed Mason. Finding out that this was true, Tyler felt betrayed and leaned towards the werewolf brethren. He hesitated to help Caroline when she and the Salvatore's were at the brink of death, which hurt her, causing her to cut off their friendship. He was the one who revealed Mason's plan to break the curse to Jules and her boyfriend Brady. He then helps them find the moonstone and the doppelgänger. Stefan reveals to Tyler that Jules and Brady had lied to him and that Elena would die in the ritual to break the curse. He releases Stefan who kills Brady before he can capture Elena during which time the rest of the pack is killed by Elijah. He then decides to leave town with Jules, the only survivor, with a promise that she wouldn't lie to him anymore. After receiving a phone call from his mother telling him that she had an accident and was in the hospital, Tyler and Jules returned to Mystic Falls. They were both captured by Maddox and Greta Martin, witches working for Klaus, and were to be used in the sacrifice that would make Klaus a vampire/werewolf hybrid. Tyler and Caroline, who had also been captured for the sacrifice ritual, were rescued by Damon, who was later bitten by Tyler during his transformation. Tyler and Caroline eventually start a relationship, which becomes rocky when he becomes Klaus' first successful hybrid. His life is made much easier when his transformations cease to happen unwillingly and Tyler becomes very respectful of Klaus, trying to sabotage his friends' plots against him, which is later revealed to be due to a sire bond.

 File:101-017~Jeremy-Vicki-Tyler.png
Tyler was Vicki Donovan's ex-boyfriend. He didn't treat her well, and he seemed to feel bad about it, especially since he can never make it up to her now that she's dead. He had a rivalry with Jeremy Gilbert because of Vicki, but they have gotten over their differences and currently don't hate each other.

 File:118VampireDiaries1073.jpg
He was friends with Matt Donovan, but it wasn't a close friendship and now Matt hates Tyler because of what happened between him and Matt's mom. At the Founders' Day Kick-Off Party, Tyler met Matt's mother, Kelly Donovan, and they started talking and made out. When Matt saw this, he was furious and Matt and Tyler got into a fist-fight. His father was also very angry and told him that he'll never disgrace his family again. However, in season two, Tyler and Matt are shown to have become friends again.

 File:TylersEye.jpg
Before *Founder's Day*, the existence of werewolves and him being one was unknown, although there were small hints to him being a werewolf. His werewolf eyes were first seen in this episode. He was driving with Matt, taking Caroline home. When the strange device that hurts vampires was activated he started to drive recklessly and crashed his dad's car. His eyes turned yellow when he was getting checked and were only seen by the paramedic when Tyler was unconscious. Afterwards someone found Caroline unconscious from the injuries and she was taken to the hospital, where both Matt and Tyler were waiting to find out the results of her surgery. Her mother Elizabeth Forbes came and asked him to call his mother, then informed him that his father was dead.

 File:Tyler-803.png
In *You Decided That I Was Worth Saving*, Tyler exits his vehicle after noticing a man lying in the road, he soon discovers that it's Damon, realizing that he's walked his way into a dangerous situation, Tyler attempts to leave as he wants nothing to do with any of it. He reaches for a gun inside his coat pocket as he's walking away, however, Damon's on to him, grabbing Tyler's wrist before he can even pull the trigger on his standard issue firearm from The Armory. Tyler attempts to explain to Damon that if he dies, then no one will forgive him, unfortunately for Tyler, Damon doesn't seem to care, tightening his grip on his wrist. File:803-115~Damon-Tyler.png   Tyler suggests that Damon walk away, fight whatever it is that Sybil wants him to do, thus regaining control of his life, reminding Damon to remember what and who he wants at the end of everything. Damon disowns any past desires, tightening his grip on Tyler's wrist yet again, forcing him to drop the gun. With no other options, Tyler has accepted his fate, demanding that Damon kill him if that's what he's there to do, Tyler believes that he'll serve as a reminder of the moment that Damon gave up, he'll be the face that Damon will never forget, and for the rest of his life, he can be *"a Sirens little bitch"*. Or this could be the moment that Damon finally wakes up, and in the end, both their lives could be worth something. Damon turns the other way, just as it seems Tyler's word's may have had an impact, Damon turns back around, attacking Tyler, tearing into his neck as he slowly loses consciousness.

 File:804-111-Tyler.png
In *An Eternity of Misery*, after learning that Damon attacked Tyler the prior night, and left him bleeding and wounded in the back of a green mustang off I-20, Matt abruptly takes off to find him. Upon his arrival, Matt opens the trunk of the vehicle to find Tyler dead, eyes wide open and throat torn into. Distraught over the loss of his best friend, Matt quickly begins to cry, falling to the ground as his father comforts him.

In *Coming Home Was a Mistake*, Matt brings Tyler's body home to Mystic Falls in a casket, calling Caroline, Bonnie, and Alaric as he does so, informing them of Tyler's demise at the hands of Damon. At the Salvatore Boarding House, Stefan looks over his body, saddened by his death. As Caroline, Matt, Stefan and Alaric prepare to  File:805-027-Stefan-Caroline-Matt-Alaric~Tyler.png   bury his body with the rest of the Lockwood Family, they are interrupted by Damon, claiming that he's there to kill each and every one of them, as Stefan approaches, Damon suggests that he be slightly more careful as underestimating him is what got Tyler killed. Later that day, a package is dropped off from The Armory to Matt, inside the package is a letter from Tyler and a box containing everything he knew about the second Siren. He left Matt with the information hoping that he would to carry on his research. After putting down Damon, the entire group gets together to give Tyler a proper memorial in front of the Ferris wheel at the Carnival, each of his friends saying their goodbyes to him.
In *Nostalgia's a Bitch*, he is seen as a subconscious hallucination inside Damon's head, due to being responsible for his death. This hallucination tries to tell Bonnie that Damon isn't worth it.

In *I Was Feeling Epic*, he is seen as a spirit alongside Vicki watching over Matt.

## Personality

 File:Tyler Moon.png  Prior to triggering his werewolf nature, Tyler had a very aggressive, arrogant and selfish personality. He showed this many times for example when he had fights with Jeremy Gilbert over his girlfriend Vicki Donovan. Tyler behaved like this because of his werewolf gene. In Season 2, when his uncle Mason came to town, he learned how to control his anger and tone down his behavior. But after discovering that his family carried the werewolf gene, Tyler was scared to become a werewolf himself.

 File:Vlcsnap-2011-04-30-12h23m16s199.png  His fears came true when he accidentally killed Sarah and triggered the curse. Tyler felt guilty for killing Sarah, and when he discovered Caroline Forbes was a vampire they became friends. She helped him get through his first transformation, but he almost killed her when he was a wolf. She came back when he was back in human form. After this, she became his friend then girlfriend. His aggressive trait seemed to calm down once he triggered the curse, and he was able to start trying to live a normal life.

 File:0078.jpg  When Tyler became a hybrid he started being his old self and he became very loyal to Klaus because he took the pain of transforming away. In Season 4, Tyler put his friends and family before himself and really cared about Caroline, in *Memorial*, he showed great sacrifice and bravery in Pastor Young's funeral when he interrupted the chant and stood on the stage to get the hunter's attention and give his friends especially Elena a chance to escape from Connor's trap. However, in Season 5 of *The Vampire Diaries*, and Season 1 of *The Originals*, the suffering Tyler has gone through, being enslaved to Klaus and having Klaus murder his mother, has caused Tyler significant emotional pain and a dark change in his personality. He has become obsessed with vengeance, an ironic fact considering his obsession is targeted at Klaus. He is shown to have little regard for what gets in his way, going so far as to attempt to murder Hayley's unborn baby solely due to what Klaus might do with it. Also, he has shown subtle signs of being at least partially suicidal, trying to goad Klaus into killing him. Klaus believes that this is due to him losing so much, to the point where he believes he has nothing left.

 File:603-063-Tyler-Matt~Jay.jpg  In *"Home"*, after Tyler is stripped of his vampirism, and killed by the magic purification spell, he is resurrected as an untriggered werewolf, a lasting result of his death that he notices almost immediately. As an untriggered werewolf once more, he had reverted back to the "old Tyler", the hot-headed bully who is incapable of walking away from an altercation. He had already picked a fight with Luke Parker after learning that he had been supplying Elena with hallucinogenic herbs, proving that Tyler had no control of himself and that his anger was consuming him. Since then, Tyler had made several attempts take control of his anger, and channel it into something productive, like the law enforcement training academy that he and Matt had enlisted in. However, that was short lived.

 File:Tyler-stabbed.png  In order to save his life from a life-threatening wound suffered during Alaric and Jo's wedding, Tyler had no choice but to once again trigger his werewolf gene. He did this by killing his girlfriend, Liv. She told him that she wanted him to live, and the only way to do that was by killing her to trigger the werewolf curse, thus activating his healing ability. It should be noted that Liv was already dying of the spell that links the Gemini Coven to their leader, who had already died. After triggering his curse, Tyler left town with Jeremy Gilbert to hunt vampires. It was during his hunter sojourns that he crossed paths with The Armory, and later became an associate of theirs. From there, Tyler moved to New York, where he was apparently living a normal life as bank trader. However, some time after this, he met Virginia St. John, who entrusted him with documents and research pertaining to the second Siren. This brought Tyler to back home to Mystic Falls, where he met his untimely demise at the hands of Damon Salvatore.

## Physical Appearance

Main article: Tyler Lockwood/Appearance
 File:Tylerlockwoodtvd.png  Tyler has tanned skin, short black hair and dark brown eyes. His height is between 5'7" to 5'9". Tyler has a muscular and toned body. Like all werewolves, his eyes will turn yellow when he becomes very angry. In his werewolf form, Tyler's fur is black and his eyes are yellow. In human form, Tyler often wears black jeans with a t-shirt and a jacket. On special occasions, such as parties, he wears a black suit. In Season Two, he starts wearing leather jackets. His style has matured over the course of the series, using darker colors looking much more attractive.

When he returns in Season Eight, Tyler is seen wearing more mature, darker clothing with a black leather jacket. He has also grown out a beard and stubble.

## Powers and Abilities

Tyler possessed all the standard powers and abilities of a non-Evolved werewolf. After he was turned and successfully completed his transition, he possessed all the standard powers and abilities of a non-Original werewolf-vampire hybrid. Being the first successful non-original werewolf-vampire, Tyler was more powerful than non-Original vampires in his age group, but was not as strong as those of greater age as shown in *Homecoming* when he was easily overpowered by Damon. However, he has been shown to be strong enough to hold his own as he was able to take on both Caroline and Stefan whilst possessed by Julian, even ripping out the latter's heart, and was shown to take on non-Original vampires well above his age when he tackled Nadia - a vampire of 500 years - and temporarily overwhelmed her, long enough to bite her. He was strong enough to also hold his own against Klaus - the Original Hybrid - during his attempt to avenge his mother's death. Tyler was also particularly fast as a non-Original werewolf-vampire hybrid, being fast enough to surprise Klaus and stake him from behind. Initially he was loyal to Klaus upon his creation as a result of his sire-bond, but due to his hybrid nature, he managed to break free by transforming numerous times until the process became painless, although he would still lose control in his wolf form. However, since the magic purification spell stripped away his hybrid nature, Tyler returned to his former untriggered status. Prior to his death, he triggered his curse once more and regained the standard powers and abilities of a non-Evolved werewolf.

## Weaknesses

Tyler had the typical weaknesses of a non-Evolved werewolf at the time of his death.

## Relationships

### Richard Lockwood

> You'll have to forgive my son's rudeness, he gets that from his father.
>
> Carol Lockwood in *Family Ties*

 File:00033572.jpg  Tyler and his father never had a good relationship, because he was a horrible parent and treated him poorly. On several occasions, Richard intervened because Tyler did something in public where Richard felt ashamed of him. When Tyler and Jeremy got into a fight at a Career Night at Mystic Falls High School, Richard and Alaric stopped it, and Richard brought the two of them outside. Tyler's father tried to get the two of them to fight each other, even though they didn't want to fight any longer. Tyler's father also had a talk with him when Tyler got into a fight with Matt, where he then pulled Tyler to the side and hit him and told Tyler "That is the last time you ever embarrass this family again". On Founder's Day, Richard was angry at Tyler for not going home when he was asked to. This could be a reflection of his concern for Tyler's safety during the rounding up of the vampires, or it could be his dislike when his son disobeys him. Richard then grabbed Tyler by the arm, and says to his son "If I tell you to do something you do it". Tyler then tells him to get off, showing that he has finally stood up to his father and that he has finally had enough of his father's controlling attitude. During his father's funeral, Jeremy Gilbert comes into Tyler's father's study to comfort Tyler, but Tyler rebuffs his attempts and acknowledges that his father was a "dick", and that he knew his father's shortcomings. After the funeral, he revealed to his mother that he had always hated his father for treating him poorly. After Richard's death, Matt Donovan made fun of Tyler's father and poured alcohol over his picture. Tyler gets angry; possibly displaying some concern for his father. Tyler never talks about his father after this, perhaps because he doesn't want to be reminded of what kind of person his father was, and maybe to forget about him completely.

### Carol Lockwood

> So I guess it's just you and me now.
>
> Carol to Tyler in *Plan B*

 File:MV5BMTM2OTU4NTA0NV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwODM2NTMwNA@@. V1. SX500 SY342 .jpg  Tyler seems to have grown up with a distant, but a somewhat positive relationship with his mother. It is only after the death of his father that Carol began to have a closer relationship with her son. When Mason Lockwood disappeared once again, Carol informed Tyler that "I guess it's just you and me now". Although he doesn't show it very well, Tyler is clearly fond of his mother, even returning to town after her accident. After Klaus Mikaelson murders Carol as revenge for Tyler trying to kill Klaus, Tyler originally wanted vengeance for her death. However, Tyler seems to have given up seeking vengeance for her death and continues to mourn Carol's death.

### Caroline Forbes

> Thank you for the best prom ever
>
> Caroline to Tyler in *Pictures of You*

Main article: Caroline and Tyler
 File:Tumblr m3cmygF7Pt1qghzy6o1 500.png  When Tyler triggered his curse, Caroline Forbes wanted to help him. Though Damon demanded her not to be his friend, she did. Tyler once asked whether she is a werewolf, Caroline laughed and said she is a vampire after a skirmish. When the first Full Moon came, Caroline helps him through the first transformation and it seems they form a special bond. The two become closer and eventually began a romantic relationship. Due to Klaus falling in love with Caroline, their relationship has become strained. Klaus promised that he will kill Tyler and Caroline pleased Klaus to let him live. Klaus told her to tell Tyler to leave town and hide which after a painful goodbye he did. They leave each vowing that they will find a way to be together again. Tyler returns in *For Whom the Bell Tolls*, and they break up in *Monster's Ball*, ending their relationship permanently. They still had feelings for each other, until Caroline slept with Klaus. After Tyler finds out, he is furious at her and this breaks their bond completely. After their angry tension was resolved after their post-breakup fight, they continue to remain good friends.

## Name

* **Tyler** is a unisex name of English origin. The meaning of the name is "tile maker".
* **Lockwood** is of English origin and means "enclosure forest".

## Tropes

* Abusive Parents - Richard Lockwood
* And I Must Scream - Before being turned into a hybrid by Klaus, Tyler had to change into a werewolf each full moon after triggering the curse. The process initially took hours to complete its excruciating transition. Also can be said for what he needed to do to break the sire bond to Klaus.
* He is introduced as a Jerk Jock, with a VERY short temper.
* Freudian Excuse: On season 1 we believe his behavior is due to his very aggressive father.
* But in season 2 we learn it's because of Lycanthropy - He is a latent Werewolf.
* Like many Involuntary Shapeshifters, his transformation into werewolf are VERY PAINFUL.
* Mr Fanservice - winds up naked after transforming back from werewolf. Unlike Hulk, he does not have Magic Pants.
* By the end of Season 2 he has morphed into a Jerk with a Heart of Gold.
* In *We'll Always Have Bourbon Street*, when all the hybrids submit to him as their Alpha, it was his Awesome Moment of Crowning.
* By coincidence, that was also his Crowning Moment of Awesome!

Tyler (Caroline):" *You have no idea how much I've missed you. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Yes. Once I know how to deal with Klaus. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *I do feel different. I feel freer. Way more myself. All I know is I just turned about a hundred times in the Appalachian Mountains. If I can get through that, I can get through anything. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Did she say we could share the bed?. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *But Klaus turned me. So if he dies, I die. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Charming? Does Klaus have a thing for you or something?. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *I'm serious. What the hell happened while I was gone?. "*
- *Heart of Darkness*

Tyler (Caroline):" *What's he gonna do? Draw you another picture?. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Or we let Esther come and kill him. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *It would be an option if we knew he wasn't the one who turned your bloodline. You'd be safe. At least he'd be gone. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Because I'm angry! Because I hate him! I should have never let him dance with you!. "*
- *Do Not Go Gentle*

Tyler (Klaus):" *I'm not your little bitch anymore. "*
Tyler (Klaus):" *By breaking every bone in my body a hundred times for the girl I love. "*
Tyler (Klaus):" *Is it? Or maybe real love is stronger than fake loyalty. "*
Tyler (Matt):" *Yeah, he would have taken you right down to the hospital, bro. "*
- *Before Sunset*

Tyler (Caroline):" *Let me protect you. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *We've gotta travel light. So what do you need?. "*

- *Memorial*

Tyler (Carol):" *Who the hell are you two?. "*
Tyler (Klaus):" *Nice to know you care. "*
Tyler (Klaus):" *You used my body as an escape hatch and kissed my girlfriend. So we're even. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *I'm on house arrest. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *You should go to the party. I'll be fine here. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Trust me, I'm no fun right now. "*
- *The Rager*

Tyler (Caroline):" *Caroline, it's not like that. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *I never fell for her. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Caroline, she saved my life. I almost died trying to break the sire bond. Hayley was there for me, she helped me get through it, but nothing else happened. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Because I'd rather him think that then know the truth. There are other hybrids that need to be set free. Hayley and I can help them. But if Klaus found out about what we're trying to do, he'd kill us all. "*
- *The Killer*

Tyler (Chris):" *You're still going? I drank enough last night and then I slept, which is what you guys should have done. "*
Tyler (Klaus):" *I didn't know you were here. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Care, this isn't a good time. "*
Tyler (Caroline and Hayley):"*You girls are good liars. "*
- *We All Go a Little Mad Sometimes*

Tyler (Hayley):" *You don't want to do that. Those girls will cut you. And they have nails. "*
Tyler (Damon):" *They don't. Paranoid much?. "*
Tyler :"*The sooner we get rid of this guy, the better. "*
- *My Brother's Keeper*

Tyler (Elena):" *The bond effects how you act, not how you feel. "*
Tyler (Kim):"*Submit. Submit or you die. "*
- *We'll Always Have Bourbon Street*

Tyler (Caroline):" *This started with me. This has to end with me. I need your support. "*
Tyler (Stefan):"*I'm sorry man, but you don't have a choice. "*
Tyler (Stefan):"*We could give a rat's ass about the cure. "*
- *O Come, All Ye Faithful*

Tyler (Caroline):"*This whole thing, this is all my fault. "*
Tyler (Caroline):"*I should have saved her. "*
- *After School Special*

Tyler (Klaus):" *Morning, sunshine. You look pathetic. "*
Tyler (Caroline):"*: He destroyed my life. I plan on being present for every second of his misery until I can kill him myself. "*
Tyler (Klaus):"*Is this what you want? To remind me that I'm powerless against you? Fine. You win. Now save her! Please!. "*
Tyler (Klaus):"*I'll be your slave again. I'll do whatever you want. Just help her. "*
Tyler (Klaus):"*You want to be in control, Klaus? Here. Now you get to be in control of her life. And if you want her to die…fine. But then you can sit here and watch her die yourself. "*
- *Into the Wild*

Tyler (Klaus):" *I'm just trying to help my friends find the cure. "*
Tyler (Klaus):"*: You tell me. I was playing around with the handle on the ride over, and I found this. "*
Tyler (Klaus and Caroline):"*What's Aramaic?. "*
Tyler (Klaus):"*I'll be your slave again. I'll do whatever you want. Just help her. "*
Tyler (Klaus):"*You want to be in control, Klaus? Here. Now you get to be in control of her life. And if you want her to die…fine. But then you can sit here and watch her die yourself. "*
Tyler (Caroline):"*At least this time we have a minute to do it the right way. "*
Tyler (Caroline):"*This isn't goodbye. This is...until we find a way. We're immortal remember? We will find a way. "*
Tyler (Caroline):"*I will live a happy life without you. I will forget all about you and I will never ever think about you again. "*
- *Down the Rabbit Hole*

Tyler (Caroline) Letter:" *Dear Care, I miss you more than I can put into words but I know as long as Klaus live I can't come home, he won't stop trying to kill me, and you won't stop trying to protect me which means the only way to make sure you're safe is for me to go and never come back. I left Matt the deed to the house it will protect you in ways I can't anymore. I will always love you. "*
- *Bring It On*

Tyler (Caroline):" *I don't think you've ever looked more beautiful. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Caroline Forbes, may I please have this dance?. "*

- *I Know What You Did Last Summer*

Tyler (Caroline):" *How about we don't talk about my major right now? "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Definitely don't want to talk about my dorm room. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *How many times do you want me to tell you? I've been helping a werewolf pack in the land of no cell phone reception. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *I thought I did make up for it a couple dozen times. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Wow. All of this and you weren't even on the dance committee. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Look, Care. I didn't just come back here to get you in bed. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *Do you know the reason we're together? It's because Klaus granted us permission to be together. I'm sorry, but I can't live like that. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *No. This is about me. He killed my mom and got away with it. I can't just start caring about sociology and frat parties. "*
Tyler (Caroline):" *I didn't come here to give it a chance. "*
Tyler (Caroline about Klaus):" *I need to go after him. I need to find a way to destroy his life like he destroyed mine. "*

Tyler (Hayley):"*It's not your backyard, it's Klaus'! You're shacked up in that mansion with that psycho. A long way from the girl I've met in the Appalachians, helping other werewolves. "*
Tyler (Hayley):" *You mean that you're pregnant? A hybrid baby, yeah,I know all about it. I've been roaming around the bayou, asking questions. "*
Tyler (Hayley):" *They can't help you! They're in the woods, hiding, because they were persecuted for decades by vampires. "*
Tyler (Hayley):" *Only hybrids can control when they change. And I'm the only one left, besides Klaus. Which is why we're here. "*
Tyler (Hayley):" *What makes you think I'm afraid to die? "*
Tyler (Hayley):" *Klaus destroyed everything good in my life! So, I'm gonna take away the thing he wants most! "*
Tyler (Hayley):" *Don't get all judgy! Dwayne knew what he was getting into. He volunteered! "*
Tyler (Hayley):" *I've been running with wolf packs all over the country. One of them was tight with a witch. She had nightmare visions about your baby and how Klaus could use it's blood to make an army of hybrid slaves. "*
Tyler (Hayley):" *What do you think? Klaus Mikaelson, killer of men, women and puppies, all of a sudden wants to be a daddy? Or, he's got an ulterior motive. Hybrids can walk in the sun, their bite is lethal to vampires. They'll take over New Orleans by the end of the week. And you know what's going to stop Klaus then? Nothing. "*
Tyler (Hayley):" *If Klaus gets ahold of you, if he gets that kid... he wins. "*
Tyler (Hayley):" *You got what you wanted, now get lost! "*
Tyler (Klaus):" *Used to hang out with you, I guess something must have rubbed off. "*
Tyler (Klaus):" *Whatever happens to me, Caroline's never going to stop hating you! "*
Tyler (Klaus):" *I guess I'm another one of your failures. Like how you failed at making hybrids, how you failed your family! Now it looks like you're going to fail your own kid! "*
Tyler (Klaus):" *Do it! You're never gonna break me! Only thing you can do is kill me, so go on! Go on, get it over with! "*
Tyler (Marcel):" *What if I told you that werewolf girl is carrying Klaus' child?... And, if that baby is born, it'll mean the end of the vampire species. "*
- *Bloodletting*

Tyler (Marcel's vampires):"*You all know Klaus wasn't always the hybrid. When he broke the curse that kept his werewolf side dormant, somewhere in all that, certain parts were now able to trump his vampire side. Like the ability to pass on the werewolf gene. That's where the werewolf girl he's been hiding from you all comes in. She rode through my town, pretended to be my friend and then end up hooking up with him. Now she's pregnant with his kid. "*
Tyler (Marcel's vampires):" *When Klaus became the hybrid, he figured out a way to turn full-bread werewolves into creatures like him... You're looking at one of them "*
Tyler (Marcel's vampires):" *We're stronger, faster. And the toxins in our bites could still kill a vampire. But on the downside we were loyal to him. Like, supernaturally loyal "*
Tyler (Rebekah):" *We're stronger, faster. And the toxins in our bites could still kill a vampire. But on the downside we were loyal to him. Like, supernaturally loyal "*
