Biography[]
- This character's history and characteristics are identical to that of his alternate dimension counterpart up until just before the Dark War, where the timeline split and the following changes took place.
During Sebastian Morgenstern's invasion of Alicante in 2007, Ty was among the children hidden away in the Accords Hall. When Sebastian's forces overpowered the Nephilim, he and his siblings went through the Portal opened by a group of warlocks to New York City. The warlocks only allowed children through, forcing them to be separated from their older half-siblings, Mark and Helen.
The children sought refuge in the shelter set up by Magnus Bane and Catarina Loss in New York while the battle continued in Idris. When the blight began to spread, all the Shadowhunters' angelic power was extinguished, demons flooded the streets, and warlocks began to turn into demons themselves. Two months later, the shelter fell and the children had no choice but to try their luck on the streets.
Julian and their family friend, and Julian's eventual girlfriend Emma Carstairs kept the family together. The group tried to get to a train station to take to California where they believed it was safer. During their trip, Julian kept insisting on giving them, especially Ty, his food ration. Just before they could board the train, a large group of Endarkened appeared and tried to stop them. Julian and Emma forced the kids onto the train and went on to fight the Endarkened, sacrificing themselves so the children could get away. Ty was shattered by the loss of their older brother.
The four remaining siblings hopped trains and traded goods with other survivors to get through their days as they traveled to California. In Chicago, they met Cameron Ashdown and began traveling with him. They were devastated to find that, upon arriving in their hometown Los Angeles, the city and the Institute were under the control of the Ashdowns who had allied themselves with the Legion of the Star. Cameron told them to flee, and the four remaining Blackthorns went back to their life on the run.
One night, while sleeping on the street, a Shinagami demon came and grabbed Tavvy. Ty tried to fight it off with a throwing knife but, without their angelic tools, stood no chance. The demon struck and killed him before taking off with his younger brother. Livia hauled Ty's body out of the water of the fountain where he had fallen and held him dead in her arms. She kissed him and told him she loved him before she burned his body so the demons wouldn't find him.[1]
