Biography
In 2256, Tyler was assigned to the USS Yeager (23rd century). However, the Yeager was destroyed at the Battle of the Binary Stars and Tyler was taken prisoner by the Klingons. For seven months, Tyler was kept aboard a Klingon prison ship, where L'Rell tortured him.

During his time there, he shared his cell with Harry Mudd, who would choose him to tortured by the Klingons. However, in December of 2256, Tyler was joined by the USS Discovery (NCC-1031)'s captain Gabriel Lorca. Together, they were able to escape, leave Mudd behind, and steal a Klingon raider. As they pursued by other raiders, they were then rescued by the Discovery by Lorca's XO, Commander Saru.
