	=== Return to Civilian Life (2009 - 2023) ===		=== Return to Civilian Life (2009 - 2023) ===
			Following his return from Iraq, Tyler faced difficulties reintegrating into civilian life. Without pursuing higher education and lacking formal qualifications outside his military experience, he worked a series of low-wage and short-term jobs to support himself and contribute to his family’s household. These included warehouse labor, private security contracts, dock work, and mechanic’s assistance positions in and around Los Santos.

			Former associates have stated that Tyler struggled with the transition from structured military life to the instability of civilian employment. Despite this, he maintained a disciplined routine and avoided long-term involvement with street gangs, though he remained connected to individuals operating within Los Santos’ underground economy.

			During the early 2010s, Nelson developed a growing interest in motorcycle culture. He began frequenting local bike meets and repair shops, where he built relationships with independent riders and members of established motorcycle clubs. His military background and composed demeanor earned him a reputation as reliable and tactically minded.

			== Events of the GTA RP: ==

			=== Joining Aye or Die MC / Claymore MC (2023) ===
			In 2023, Tyler became affiliated with Aye or Die MC, a veteran-oriented outlaw motorcycle club established in Los Santos under the leadership of [[Edward McHaggis]]. The club was structured with a strong emphasis on military discipline, hierarchy, and loyalty, recruiting individuals with combat backgrounds and operational experience.

			Given Tyler’s prior service in Iraq and reputation for composure under pressure, he aligned closely with the club’s culture and expectations. He formally joined Aye or Die MC in 2023 and earned his full patch, integrating into the club’s command structure. His responsibilities included enforcement of internal discipline and participation in coordinated operations tied to the club’s broader strategic objectives.

			During his time in Aye or Die MC, Tyler established key relationships that would later shape the biker landscape of Los Santos. Among them was [[Arthur Percy]], a full-patch member and mechanic within the club. Arthur became Tyler’s closest associate within the organization, and the two developed a strong working partnership based on shared military values and strategic thinking. Following the eventual disbandment of Claymore MC, Tyler and Arthur would go on to co-found [[Black Shuck MC]].

			Tyler also served alongside [[Aiden Reed]], a full-patch member who later became a central figure in the internal fracture of the club. Reed would eventually lead a breakaway faction known as the [[Alamo Hellraisers]] alongside [[Caroline Roberts]]. She was one of the few female full-patch members within Claymore MC, was known for her close personal relationships within the club and held a visible presence during its operational period.

			Another notable member during Tyler’s tenure was [[Victor Donovan]], a 22-year-old prospect recruited by Edward McHaggis for his aviation skills, particularly in piloting and small-scale smuggling operations. Additional members active within the club during this period included [[Clint McLaughlin]], [[Wallace Bernards]], and [[Jack Schlager]].

			Later in 2023, Aye or Die MC underwent internal restructuring and rebranding, becoming known as Claymore MC. The rebranding itself did not result in internal conflict, and the club continued operations under Edward McHaggis’ leadership.

			=== Fall of Claymore MC (2024) ===
			By late 2024, internal tensions within Claymore MC had intensified. Disagreements emerged regarding payouts, loyalty to the club’s founding principles, and Edward McHaggis’ increasingly centralized leadership style. Inspired by the profitability and tight operational control of allied organizations, Edward attempted to impose stricter hierarchy and discipline within Claymore. However, many members, particularly those with military background, resisted what they perceived as excessive control.

			On 1 November 2024, a turning point occurred following a failed unauthorized mission involving Aiden Reed and Clint McLaughlin. The operation, which had not been approved by Edward, was reportedly considered strategically unsound from the outset. According to Edward, no formal order or permission had been given for the mission to proceed. During the fallout, Reed and McLaughlin claimed they did not receive adequate support from other Claymore members, particularly from Edward. Shortly thereafter, Clint McLaughlin went missing.

			The failed mission acted as the catalyst for open rebellion. Aiden Reed, joined by Caroline Roberts, Jack Schlager, and Wallace Bernards, formally defected from Claymore MC. They established a rival outlaw motorcycle club known as the Alamo Hellraisers, initially operating out of Sandy Shores before later relocating to Grapeseed. The remaining unmentioned members of Claymore MC remained loyal to Edward.

			The mutiny significantly weakened Claymore MC’s organizational stability and credibility within Los Santos’ biker ecosystem. Tyler remained aligned with the loyalist faction during the internal fracture.

			In the immediate aftermath, Edward McHaggis undertook efforts to stabilize what remained of Claymore MC. With the club fractured and several senior members defecting, Edward sought alternative revenue streams to preserve operational capacity. One of these efforts included the expansion of airfreight-based smuggling operations routed through Fort Zancudo, utilizing one of the few assets still firmly under his control. The remaining loyal members were required to assume heavier workloads, handling security, logistics, and enforcement with reduced manpower.

			Around this time, [[Jeffrey Cooper]] entered Claymore’s orbit after meeting Edward and Billy at a car meet in Cypress Flats. Following an ambush on Billy and Jeffrey at a former government facility, later identified as an action carried out by defectors, Jeffrey was formally initiated as a Prospect in Claymore MC. Shortly thereafter, Claymore launched a retaliatory show of force in Sandy Shores against the newly formed Alamo Hellraisers, signaling that the club remained operational despite internal losses.

			As investigations into the internal collapse continued, Claymore leadership concluded that information had been leaking to the Hellraisers. In response, suspected informants within their sphere were eliminated. In the escalating conflict that followed, multiple Hellraiser members, including Wallace Bernards and Jack Schlager, were assassinated. These targeted killings further intensified hostilities between the rival factions and deepened the divide that had originated from the failed mission.

			Despite Edward’s attempts at recovery and Jeff’s loyalty during this period, Claymore MC never fully regained its former strength. After the collapse of the Big Four a few weeks later, Edward formally disbanded Claymore MC, which set the conditions for the later formation of [[Black Shuck MC]].

			=== First Biker War (2025) ===
			Following the effective collapse of Claymore MC in late 2024, Tyler and Arthur Percy moved to establish a new organization built on lessons learned from Claymore’s internal failures. Black Shuck MC was formed with an emphasis on tighter internal cohesion, clearer chains of command, and stricter operational discipline. Unlike Claymore, which struggled with centralized authority versus independent personalities, Black Shuck was structured around a smaller, more trusted leadership core.

			Tyler assumed the position of Vice President, serving as second-in-command and primary enforcer of club policy. His responsibilities extended beyond discipline; he oversaw reconnaissance operations, coordinated retaliatory actions, and helped structure the club’s expansion strategy. Drawing on both his military background and experience from Claymore’s collapse, Tyler advocated for compartmentalization of information, reduced internal leaks, and stricter vetting of associates.

			==== Joey Hunt and the Union Depository Robbery ====
			In its early phase, Black Shuck MC operated with limited manpower but high operational efficiency. Recruitment focused on loyalty and demonstrated competence rather than rapid expansion. Tyler played a central role in screening prospects and evaluating outside partnerships. One of the most significant early external contacts was [[Joey Hunt]], a mechanic who approached the club after being attacked in Strawberry. Tyler led the internal questioning process at the clubhouse, weighing the risks of involvement before supporting limited retaliation on Joey’s behalf. The successful response against the Rancho gang strengthened Black Shuck’s street reputation and signaled that the club was willing to project force despite its relatively recent formation.

			Once a bit of trust existed, Joey introduced a far larger proposition: the robbery of the Union Depository. The proposal was met with skepticism. For Black Shuck MC, the jump from handling local street matters to robbing a major federal bank was a radical escalation. Arthur and Tyler questioned the exposure, the consequences, and Joey’s intentions. Despite the doubts, the club was under financial pressure and in need of cash. After weeks of prepping, Joey, Arthur and Tyler executed the Union Depository robbery, primarily organized by Joey Hunt with assistance from Black Shuck members. The estimated $15,000,000 theft provided the financial capital necessary for rapid scaling. With these funds, Black Shuck established a cocaine lockup and a counterfeit-cash production facility, utilizing former business locations once controlled by Edward McHaggis. Tyler was directly involved in securing these sites, assigning manpower, and organizing defensive measures to protect supply chains and distribution routes.

			During this expansion phase, Black Shuck positioned itself as a disciplined and financially capable successor to Claymore MC. Tyler’s leadership style was described as methodical and pragmatic. Rather than seeking immediate dominance through visible displays of aggression, he favored calculated action, intelligence gathering, and targeted strikes when necessary. This approach would later define the club’s conduct during escalating tensions with the Hellraisers.

			==== The Acid Business ====
			During this same period, Black Shuck MC became indirectly involved in the regional acid trade connected to [[Marty Marcano]], an independent operator who had been running a mobile acid laboratory across Blaine County and parts of Los Santos. Arthur Percy engaged in discussions regarding potential cooperation, while Tyler maintained a cautious stance toward the operation due to concerns about security, distribution control, and exposure to external retaliation. Ultimately, Black Shuck evaluated the profitability and logistical advantages of consolidating acid production under their own protection network. Within weeks, the club moved to assume control over distribution channels, effectively pushing Marty out of the larger acid market. This decision expanded Black Shuck’s narcotics portfolio and demonstrated Tyler’s preference for centralized oversight of high-risk revenue streams.

			==== Tensions with the Alamo Hellraisers ====
			Tensions between Black Shuck MC and the Hellraisers escalated after reconnaissance operations conducted by Tyler and Arthur Percy near the Alamo Sea. The discovery of a heavily armed Hellraiser compound led to a direct assault by Black Shuck MC, significantly weakening Hellraiser operations but triggering retaliatory violence.

			The conflict, later referred to as the First Biker War, intensified when Tyler conducted further scouting activity in Grapeseed. He was subsequently kidnapped by Aiden, identified as the de facto leader of the Hellraisers. A meeting was arranged at McKenzie Airfield. During the confrontation, Aiden demanded the dissolution of Black Shuck MC. When the demand was refused, Aiden shot Tyler in the stomach, initiating a firefight. Aiden escaped the scene. Tyler later died from his injuries.

			== Death and Legacy ==
			Tyler Nelson was buried beneath the letter "N" of the Vinewood sign. His death marked a major escalation in the conflict between Black Shuck MC and the Hellraisers and directly influenced subsequent alliances formed in Los Santos.

			Tyler is regarded within Black Shuck MC as a central figure in the club’s expansion phase and early war period. Tyler charismatic and friendly tone has left a standing legacy in the heart of Black Shuck MC. His leadership and involvement in strategic operations significantly shaped the organization’s development prior to his death.
