Tyler is the main protagonist of Johnisdead. He and his friends John, Jacob, and Kevin all became embroiled with a dangerous cult known as the Lunar Children since approximately 2009. Since then, various individuals from the Lunar Children have pursued Tyler with the intent of sacrificing him to summon their goddess Luna.

Biography

Tyler grew up in the woods of rural Florida. Nothing is known about Tyler's parents, as they are never referenced in Johnisdead. Tyler mentions that his grandparents both passed away at some point before 2015. He now lives alone in his trailer on their land, which mostly consists of woods. At some point, Tyler became good friends with John, Jacob, and Kevin. While Jacob lived far away from Tyler, both Kevin and John's homes were within walking distance. Tyler often acted as a mediator between John and Kevin, as the two of them often got into fierce religious debates.

At some point, Tyler, John, and Jacob founded the Internet Detectives player group and investigated YSHDT.com - a website that the players were also investigating from six years in the future in 2015. Tyler would often smoke weed with his friend Jacob. In October of 2009, Tyler spoke to Jacob for the last time. Jacob claimed to have a new job that took up all of his time, meaning they could no longer hang out. Shortly after this, Jacob's phone number was changed. At some point, Tyler got into a relationship with Carla, a girl living in Australia who was a member of the Lunar Children - something Tyler was unaware of. Carla later gifted Tyler a crescent moon necklace, which he proceeded to wear constantly.

In early 2010, Tyler recorded videos of John, Kevin, and himself all hanging out. These videos would later be known as Fun night with john and kevin and Fun night with john and kevin 2. According to Tyler, John and Kevin had a big argument about magic shortly after these videos were recorded. Over time, Tyler noticed Kevin taking interest in the necklace Carla gave him. Kevin later stole this necklace - something Tyler accused him of, but could never prove. On Undecim Nocte 2011, John was killed in a house fire as a result of Kevin's ascension within the Lunar Children.

At this point, Tyler was still completely unaware of the Lunar Children's existence. When attempting to learn more about the disappearance of his two friends, the police were unhelpful - sometimes feeding him outright lies. This is because the police and other local authorities were working alongside the Lunar Children to cover up the events of Undecim Nocte. Tyler was told John's death was simply the result of "faulty wiring" and was never informed of any funeral. He was also told that John's parents were currently both out of town, though it is unknown if this is true or not. The police were equally useless in regards to Kevin's disappearance.
