Timeline:
NOTE: This is a mix of elements from the comic, the TV show, and original material.

* 1997: Tyler was the firstborn child of Rendell and Nina Locke. He was born and raised in San Francisco.

* 1999: Tyler's younger sister, Kinsey, was born.

* 2006: Tyler's younger brother, Bode, was born.

* 2013: Kinsey talks Tyler into taking her to a party because she has a crush on one of Tyler's friends. She gets in a car with the friend, who was drunk, and gets into an accident, sustaining minor injuries. Tyler is grounded and can't go on a planned trip with his friends to Baja.

* 2013: Rendell Locke, Tyler's father, is shot and killed by Sam Lesser. They move to Rendell's familial home, Keyhouse Manor, located in Lovecraft, Massachusetts.

* 2014: With the help of a demonic echo named Dodge, Sam Lesser escapes from prison and makes his way to Keyhouse to find the Omega Key and the Anywhere Key.

* 2014: Dodge tricks Bode into bringing him the Anywhere Key, which allows him to escape from the well house. Dodge later kills Sam Lesser.

* 2015: In his attempt to collect all of the keys, Dodge possesses the body of Bode Locke. The ruse is eventually discovered and Tyler tricks Bode/Dodge into the well house where Dodge's spirit becomes trapped and he is forced to leave Bode's body.

* 2016: Dodge has been defeated and life around Keyhouse Manor returns to normal. Tyler decides to allow the Riffel Rule to affect him so he can live a normal life and forget about the keys. But fate has another plan because there is a terrible accident in the caves at the demonic door and Bode vanishes. Tyler uses the Memory Key to turn off the Riffel Rule so he can continue the hunt for his little brother.

* 2021: After five fruitless years of searching, Tyler, having recently completed his education at M.I.T., moves to New York City with his sister, Kinsey, to open a private investigation service. It's all a front to fund his continued search for Bode Locke.

Personality

Click to expand.

Bold:
Tyler has been the de facto head of the Locke household for a long time now, and has been involved in some serious situations while acting on behalf of his family. He has the will to act and the experience to back that up. In a crisis, he is capable of much.

Family First:
The Lockes are a family bound together by personal and familial tragedy. Although Tyler has had friends and lovers, his only real concern is the welfare of his blood relatives. No one who has ever tried to get between Tyler and his family has ever remained in his life.

Generous:
When it comes to helping friends or strangers, Tyler tends to be pretty generous both with his money and his time. He's a sucker for a hard-luck case or an underdog.

Single-Minded:
Tyler is fiercely devoted to the ongoing search for Bode Locke, who vanished in an incident at the demonic door in the caves near Keyhouse Manor. He understands the value of doing other things. He completed his degree. He opened a business. He even allows himself recreation. But in the end, all other pursuits fall away when compared to the hunt for his little brother.

Demon Resistance:
Demons are unable to take one of the special key from any member of the Locke family. A Locke could choose (or be tricked) to give a key to a demon, but the demon can't take a key from a Locke against their will.

Skills

Click to expand.

Computer Science:
Tyler has a B.S. in Computer Science with a Mathematic minor from M.I.T. His natural interest in computing and networking combined with his formal training from one of the most prestigious technical colleges in the world give him a wide array of digital tools at his disposal.

Martial Arts:
During his four years in college Tyler studied at a dojo that taught Brazilian jiu-jitsu and MMA. He's /far/ from being Batman, but in most mundane self-defense situations he is capable of dominating attackers.

Private Investigation:
The private investigation business is primarily a front for Tyler's search for his younger brother, Bode. But any successful business front requires, you know, actually doing some business. Tyler took a 6-month course on PI essentials in preparation for applying for his PI license. He's far from an expert, but he knows the basics.

Keyhouse Manor:
Located in Lovecraft, Massachusetts, the KeyHouse Manor is an estate owned by the Locke Family. Tyler is the current keeper of the house. If he needs an enchanted stronghold to retreat to, Keyhouse is there.

Keys:
The following is a list of keys that both Tyler and his sister, Kinsey, have access to in New York City. These keys do not require special locations in and around Keyhouse Manor to function.

Alpha Key: When inserted into the chest of a demon, it turns them into whispering iron. If this is done to a host possessed by a demon, the host is killed in the process.

Angel Key: The angel key works in conjunction with a harness upon which are fixed two feathered wings. When the harness is worn and the key inserted, the wings grow and allow the wearer to fly. While flying, the wearer can carry up to 200 pounds of weight, more if they are also using the Hercules key.

Anywhere Key: Opens a door to anywhere the bearer can visualize in their mind.

Head Key: When inserted into the back of someone's head, they form an astral body outside of their inert real body. Also an entryway appears into the person's mind, granting access to their memories. By putting media (books, DVDs, etc.) into the entryway, the person instantly knows these things as though they had read/watched them. Also, memories can be physically removed from the person's mind, causing them to forget those memories until such time as they are returned.

Hercules Key: Embedded in a necklace, this key grants supernatural strength to anyone who wears the necklace while the key in attached. It's not Superman-level strength, but the wearer is stronger than any normal human.

Identity Key: When inserted into the chin of a willing or unwilling target, it changes that person's appearance to match the desire of the key's user. This can change size (within normal human limits), age, gender, clothing, etc. It cannot, however, change someone to look like an actual existing person.

Matchstick Key: This key causes intense, potent fire to spring into being, immolating materials or people.

Mending Key: Works in conjunction with a magical cabinet that Tyler has moved from Keyhouse Manor to his NYC office. Any broken object placed within it is repaired when the cabinet is closed and the key inserted into the lock. The cabinet can resize itself to fit objects of various sizes.

Music Box Key: This key is matched with an antique music box. When activated, the key operator can speak the name of a person who is within sight. That person obeys commands the key operator speaks into the box. Supernatural, otherworldly, extraplanar, or otherwise very strong-willed beings might be able to resist this.

Pi Licenses:
Tyler holds private investigator licenses in both Massachusetts and New York.

Wealth:
The Locke family fortune is considerable. Tyler is a bit of a miser, though, and prefers to generate money from his private investigation business rather than tap into the Locke family coffers. But if it's needed, it's there.

Whisper Iron:
Tyler discovered a piece of whisper iron near the demonic door. It is enough to forge a single key. As he did with the Alpha Key, Tyler can use this inconceivably rare piece of otherwordly metal to forge a single key with a power of his design. It's likely he may never see another piece of Whisper Iron in his life, so he is saving this for an emergency. He keeps it in an expensive, high- end safe in his NYC office. Kinsey knows it is there and knows the combination to the safe.

Weaknesses

Click to expand.

Keys:
Tyler's abilities are centered around the keys. Without them, he's just some dude.

Normal Human:
Without the keys there is really nothing special about Tyler Locke. He's an otherwise completely normal human with no special abilities or powers.

Temper:
When provoked, Tyler can have a nasty temper. This is especially true when a threat to his family is involved. He can definitely be manipulated by someone who is aware of this shortcoming.
