Il y a un crash soudain à travers les arbres comme quelque chose tombe à travers eux, une série de fissures douloureuses comme quelque chose tombe à travers chaque branche sur son chemin vers le sol. La verdure est silencieuse pendant un moment, avant qu'un homme à la tête vide ne tombe de la ligne d'arbres dans un labyrinthe, griffant d'une main un guide touristique au magnifique Central Park de New York. Il oscille au bord du lac et engourdit le livre sur son visage. Après avoir lu un peu, il pose le livre et regarde son environnement avec une expression perplexe. Il ramène le guide et tourne quelques pages, puis le pose à nouveau pour avoir un autre regard autour. Pendant ce tour, ses yeux tombent enfin sur Jynmi. "Oh, bonjour." C'est ce qu'il dit. "C'est l'étang de canard?"
Real name: Tyler Bacon
Age: 29
Appearance: Tall, sort of out of shape Caucasian male with short brown hair. Built like someone who has only just recently started to show the effects of steady exorcise.
Personality: It is very rare to see Tyler Bacon truly happy, but on the other hand it's rare to see him truly angry. He mostly seems to exist in a state of perpetually perplexed melancholy, the strongest emotion he ever shows is annoyance. A very practically minded person whose sense of wonder seems to have shriveled up and died a long time ago, he's liable to be more impressed with someone starting a fire with a flint and steel than, say, obliterating and entire countryside with a concentrated blast of it. Generally stupid, having a very simple view of most all situations. Doesn't like to bother people with his problems.
History: Tyler is a traveler, though not by his own choice. A delivery man and furniture mover, he hit it off with a rich heiress named Stella Trombold while helping her move in to her new mansion. For the life of them their friends could not understand what she sees in him, but prevailing theory is that she enjoys his simplicity and the fact that he doesn't talk back much. Stella herself is a bit of an adventurer, and Tyler dutifully gets dragged along to the four corners of the Earth by her. He would much rather they be at home, doing something simple like watching television and while he's sure the bug and frogs and things are lovely if you like them, he would much rather have a sandwich. He tells her these things as often as they come up, but never actually finds it in his heart to refuse.
He is currently on another vacation right at this moment, Stella having given him a little free time to wonder about on his own.
Starting items: Small traveling bag, Guide to (Wherever he is before the first jump), three sandwiches, 2 bottled water, $650 cash allowance, small umbrella, cellphone.
Ability: Phantom Limb
A third hand that floats about independently of Tyler, controlled by his will. About as strong and dexterous as a normal human hand, but doesn't get tired and is much faster. Able to move freely through non-living things. Tyler always knows where the hand is.
