PLAYBY: Kevin Rankin
FULL NAME: Tyler Briggs
NICKNAMES: Ty, Sideburns
AGE: 33
GENDER: Male
ETHNICITY: American
JOB: Paramedic
RESIDENTIAL AREA: Birch Row
PERSONALITY: Tyler is the funny man. He is constantly making jokes, and playing harmless pranks. He does take his job seriously, but often just enjoys some time off, and argues the simple things. Like who is going to drive the rig? He doesn’t have any anger issues, but can often pass as crazy, and it can be worrying when he starts talking about being ‘normal’. He’s pretty much the easy going one, and is very fun to be around.
When he is quiet and not talking a lot, then you know something is up. Usually he hides it, but it is easy to spot. He has his own ritual of doing things. The rig has to be packed a certain way, and he even has a lucky rabbit’s foot. There can be no greater friend to have, and even if he is different, Tyler is just one great presence. He has identified himself as bisexual, and is till looking for the right one.
BACKGROUND: Tyler was born in Baton Rouge, his family was pretty average, and he was an only child. From the time that he entered high school he knew that he wanted to be a paramedic, and he fulfilled his dream. Straight out of high school, Tyler went into training, but always remained an EMT.
He kept switching the places he worked, Chicago, New York and so on. He finally settled in San Francisco, and started his job there. A year later he passed his Paramedic exam, and spent a few years there. His permanent parter was Glenn, and when Glenn said he was moving, Tyler decided what the heck, and moved as well. His father passed away from cancer, and that might also have influenced his decision to come.
MISC.:
Dutchess is a four year old Coonhound bred in Baton Rouge, Lousiana. She is a friendly character, but can make one heck of a racket. Most often she is seen at the station, sleeping in a basket and keeping the medics company.
