## History

### Early Life

Tyler Solace was born to Jasper Solace, a clear sighted mortal and Theia, Titaness of clear sight, light, and splendor, and she who gave gold and silver its luster, and crystals and gems their sparkle in Guatemala City, Guatemala on August 3, 2004. Tyler’s older brother, Flint, was born five years before him and his little sister, Jade, was born four years after him. Jasper Solace was nothing short of a ladies man. He was known to be a lothario of sorts and had countless one night stands, so much so that it wouldn't be surprising if he was the father of more children than just one. The night he met Theia was like all others; he entered one of his frequent night clubs, danced with some girls and, one way or another, proceeded to hookup with them. It seemed as if his reputation had reached Olympus because Theia was the girl he picked up that night.

Jasper was shocked, charmed even, to find a woman as suave as himself and he'd be lying if he said he didn't think that night as one of the best nights he had ever had. Life was perfect; they parted ways not too long after and Jasper went home knowing he had probably the best sex of his life. One week passed, however, and Jasper’s party-boy lifestyle crashed down around him. Theia turned up on his doorstep and gave him their oldest child, one of the children he would have with her. At first, he was surprised but took the child. Theia stayed for five years and during that time, had their second child Tyler and four years later, Theia and Jasper had their third and final child, Jade. Tyler had no memories of Theia since he was four when Jade was born and that’s when she left. Jasper’s mom and dad, helped raise the three kids.

### Childhood

Tyler’s childhood was fairly normal. He went to school but at six years old, was diagnosed with ADHD and Dyslexia. When Tyler was seven, his father married a woman named Chloe, though the two didn’t have any children. Chloe would often emotionally abuse Tyler since she didn’t really like her husband's kids. During a talk with George Flores, Tyler's best friend, Tyler mentioned having three friends and the three would play in their city, playing tag, hide and seek and other games. When Tyler had turned nine, he and his family moved to LA as his father got a job as an optometrist.

### First Attack

Tyler had fond memories living in California. He learned how to read the subway map when using it and he would often ride his bike down the street. He was a pretty popular kid since he always had this upbeat and positive attitude. When Tyler was ten, he was playing by himself since his friends were either sick or were too busy to play with him that day. He was sitting in the grass looking for shiny rocks since he had always had a knack for collecting shiny things. As he was playing, he heard some squawking from above. When he looked up he saw birds circling above. He shrugged it off, thinking they were random birds looking for food but soon started to attack him. Tyler’s only idea was to throw things at them and run. He managed to drive them off. When he got home, he played it off as nothing had happened

### Second Attack

Tyler was eleven and doesn't know a thing about anything. His best friend, Benny, is always sighing at him and is always frustrated but Benny wouldn't give up on her. After that night, Tyler woke up and was late to school. His dad was angry at him and he got shouted at.He got in trouble. He went to school and got shouted at by Mr Jameson. He got up and Benny grabbed him. Benny asked him why he was late and he said he woke up late. Benny sighed at him and they went to their next class. As they walked to their next class, they got interrupted by the new supply teacher, Miss Waters. Miss Waters dragged them to the next room. She shut the door so they couldn't get out. Benny and Tyler were afraid. Bear in mind, Benny is a satyr. Benny knew something Tyler didn’t. He banged at the door shouting for help. All of a sudden, Miss Waters manifested into a creature, a harpy. Tyler screamed. He banged at the door with Benny. 'HELP!' they both screamed. Benny looked in his pocket and gave Tyler a bracelet to push the button. All of a sudden, it turned into a Bow. Miss Waters ran into Tyler and she shot it in her stomach. Benny helped him by holding his hand with the bow in his hand. It disintegrated. Tyler was in shock. They ran out of the room and Tyler felt like he had a heart attack. Benny went to Mr Jameson and told him if he could take him home. He said that Benny could. Tyler told his dad and siblings about what happened and they didn't believe him. Benny denied it as well. He was angry at Benny because he was there. They denied it to protect him from danger of what he is until he reaches the right age, thirteen

### Final attack and going to Camp

When he was 12, he saw monsters around the town, but managed to get away from it. Tyler is now 13. He still hasn't got over the monster attack and always has dreams about it. His dad is concerned. He talked to him about it and hasn't succeeded. Tyler went to school and talked to Benny. He still thinks he is right and Benny is wrong. They walked along to class and it was the end of the school year. He was glad. Benny and Tyler went to the park and they saw a monster. They didn't know what it was. They ran away as fast as they could. They could see the monsters chasing after other demigods around the area. Benny said it was a Stymphalian bird and they had to go very fast. Tyler was very angry. "Benny, you say this thing is a whatever-you-said bird. How do you know?" He exclaimed. "I'll explain later. Let's go!" Benny replied. The bird started to peck at Tyler’s head. Tyler screamed. He tried to run away but he couldn't. Benny gave him a bracelet like last time. He told him to press the button. He did what he was told. It turned into a Crystal bow. He shot it at the bird. It didn't work. He fell over. His music turned on from his phone. The bird let go of her and went mental. Benny took him home. Benny took him home and told his dad everything. Jasper thought it was a good time to take his kids to camp. He told his kids about their mom and about the monsters and that Tyler wasn't crazy. He told them all about the Greek gods and that they were real. He told them that they were demigods. Tyler fell on his knees. Benny and his siblings comforted him. Their dad called a cab to take them to Big Bear. He put all of his kid's clothes in their bags. As the taxi came, he said their goodbyes and went. As they approached Camp Olympia, Tyler looked at Benny and saw he had goat legs. They screamed. They were going to stay with this place for a long time. They arrived safely at camp, without anything wrong… They were soon claimed by Theia

## Personality

Tyler is a caring person who is willing to help out anyone who needs to be healed. He cares greatly for his siblings and friends and often helps Melody, who is one of his best friends, with her anxiety. Tyler also has a calming disposition, as shown when he calms down Larissa, daughter of Lyssa during a sparing match. With a tendency to overwork himself, Tyler is extremely dedicated to his work, even going so far as to not sleep for days on end. He has also developed a kind of shell, meaning that even in extremely stressful situations he at least looks calm and collected. He also loves talking with Harper Samuel, daughter of Pluto over their shared power over gems and is bright, optimistic, perky. However, despite being perky and happy, he hid a lot of emotional pain caused by his stepmom. He doesn't really talk about his abuse and the only people he shared the news about his home with were Melody, George, and Phoebe. Tyler is a curious teenager, wanting to learn about everything in the immortal world he prefers to explore the things around him so he can better understand his surroundings. He also tends to be slightly aggressive towards those he doesn't like or if he's in a bad mood. He is often teased by his older brother, Flint and was usually the one to take care of his younger sister, Jade (Solace). Along with that curiosity, he is super impatient, and tends to speak his mind on everything, and his ADHD doesn't help him any. Tyler generally avoids physical violence because he faints for long periods of time at the sight of blood, even fake blood, (Ironic, since he wants to be a doctor). He is often seen as sarcastic and funny around his friends. Tyler is a bit socially awkward, but is a great friend. He's smart, constantly studies and reads. Incredibly brave, but thinks though his every move. So Tyler, is just your fun loving, live life like it was gonna end in a couple days, kinda' guy. A finish everything on my bucket list before I die kinda guy. He can be very demeaning at times, but always loves to make a joke. He says the stuff that everybody is thinking. He can be kind and caring, but thats only if he feels that he truly cares about someone. Tyler is a good judge of what people do and don't like and uses it to his advantage.

## Etymology

The name Tyler is of Old French origin from the world tieulier meaning **tiler or tile maker**. In Middle English the spelling became tyler. The name was used for a person who lays tiles or bricks, and often as an occupational name for a housebuilder.

The derivation of the name is from the Middle English "solace", Old French "solas", meaning "**comfort, consolation**". The word also came to have the sense "delight, amusement", and so the surname may in some cases have been originally given as a nickname to a playful or entertaining person.
