Tyrell is a specialist in logistics, surveillance, and electronic warfare. His background in the French Foreign Legion gave him the tactical foundation, but his time in the black market gave him the cunning required for Umbrella’s "special assignments."

By the night of September 28th, the "Search and Rescue" facade of the U.B.C.S. mission had collapsed. The streets above were a cacophony of fire and hunger. Below ground, in the Raccoon City Subway, a fragile sanctuary had been established by Captain Mikhail Viktor. Tyrell sat on a wooden bench on the platform, his laptop open and balanced on his knees. The flickering fluorescent lights of the station reflected off his dark glasses. While Carlos Oliveira was busy tending to a group of terrified civilians and Mikhail lay wounded in the tram, Tyrell was watching the data. His screen was a scrolling wall of encrypted Umbrella telemetry—bio-signatures of the creatures stalking the streets above.

"You find a way to get this bucket of bolts moving yet?" Tyrell asked, his voice low and raspy, not looking up from his screen.
