Tyrell

Tyrell (テリーTerry) is a playable character in Golden Sun: Dark Dawn. He is the son of Garet, and a Mars Adept like his father. He was first revealed for the game alongside his fellow party members Karis and Matthew.

As a playable character
It is evident from trailers that he is one of the main party members that appears in battles in Dark Dawn, and he uses a similar collection of Psynergy as Garet did in Golden Sun, indicating his element as a Mars Adept. The E3 2010 floor demo footage showing him in battle shows him launching a fiery Psynergy in battle that looks like a 3D rendition of the Fire Psynergy series. In the floor demo's Battle Mode, Tyrell has the Mars Djinn Fever and Torch Set onto him, and his Psynergy consists of Heat Wave, Flare and Flare Wall, "Starburst" (formerly Blast) and Nova, Volcano, and Fireball. He also does not have the Move Psynergy like his father did, unlike Matthew and Isaac, but his own Fireball Psynergy is classified as utility and is used in the overworld. It should be noted that Garet is seen to use Fireball in Tanglewood and so has passed this on to his son. In terms of battle statistics and equipment, he is essentially a clone of Garet from the original Golden Sun.

He joins the party at the start of the (real) adventure at level 4 with 176 experience points and will have a Short sword, Cotton shirt, Padded gloves and Leather cap as starting equipment.

Biography
Tyrell is the son of the previous games' Garet, as stated in Japanese-language magazine V-Jump and it is confirmed from press releases that 30 years passed in between Golden Sun: The Lost Age and Golden Sun: Dark Dawn and that the main characters of the game are the children of the main characters from the previous games. It's interesting to note that while Tyrell has a similar build, hair style, and hair color to Garet, his light blue/green eye color is much different from Garet's auburn eye color. Translation of a brief article on Dark Dawn in Japanese-language magazine Jump describes Tyrell as a Mars Adept, a mischievous character, and Matthew's close friend.

Personality
Tyrell is fearless, having a poor sense of danger. This, mixed with pride and curiosity, causes the hunt for the Roc's Feather and frustrates the party along the way, especially Karis (even causing her to cry at one point). Throughout Dark Dawn, he accepts and creates unneccessary challenges, such as challenging Blados immediately after fending off an ambush. Thanks to his mouth, even the calmest foes can't resist targeting him first. When Tyrell does get hurt, he hardly acknowledges it.

Statistical comparison
Like his father Garet, Tyrell inherits the traits of high HP, below average PP, mediocre attack power, high defense, below average agility (even slower than his fellow Mars Adept Eoleo) and a luck rating of two.

Quotes
Like Garet, Tyrell is the source of light heartedness in Dark Dawn. He is often unfocused, clumsy and brash and was the one responsible for breaking the first Soarwing. His dialogue is often humorous.


 * On Lookout Cabin:
 * Tyrell: "Come on-how hard can it be? I mean, you just jump into the wind and act like a bird!"
 * Garet: "What?! That's birdbrained, Son! You're going to drop like a rock into the valley below!"
 * Tyrell: "You're wrong! You just don't have any faith in me, Dad! And I'm fed up with people not taking me seriously!"


 * In the Abandoned Mine:
 * Tyrell: (Waking up after being rescued) "Ohhhh! And I was having such nice dreams...!"
 * Garet: "What?! You oaf! Is that the thanks we get? We were worried about you!"
 * Tyrell: "Worried? Oh, yeah... Now I remember... I crashed the soarwing... The wing broke..."
 * Garet: "It broke? More like you broke IT!"


 * In Lookout Cabin:
 * Tyrell: "Tell me who Kraden is again? I sort of remember this ancient, crusty guy visiting the cabin once... "


 * In Patcher's Place:
 * Karis: "You nearly burned down his store? Wow. Is there anywhere you haven't made a mess of things, Tyrell?"
 * Tyrell: "What I did here happened forever ago! I didn't mean to do it! But Patcher never...ever...FORGETS!" (Begins to charge up fire Psynergy in frustration)
 * Karis: (If Matthew responds with sadness) "Oh, great. Now I have two friends falling apart on me. Help me calm him down! Snap out of it, Tyrell!" (Karis pushes Tyrell onto the ground.)
 * Tyrell: "Ouch. That hurt."
 * Karis: "I hope that DID hurt, Tyrell! It's pretty stupid, losing your temper like that! You might have scorched this whole place!"


 * In Konpa Cave:
 * Kraden: "Well, I commend all of you! Making it through the ruins must have been hard for you."
 * Tyrell: "Yeah, the ruins were huge! Why didn't you come up and help us out?"
 * Nowell: "Well, that's a fine way to talk to Master Kraden! He's gone to a lot of trouble to get here!"


 * Tyrell: "But when bad luck hits, you just have to roll with the punches."
 * Karis: "What a surprisingly positive thing for you to say, Tyrell. I'm more used to you kicking and screaming when fate throws you for a loop."
 * Tyrell: "Well, one of us has to be the grown-up here."
 * Karis: "Very funny. But let's hurry."


 * Tyrell: "Look! A crate! Uh...and it's hopping."
 * Karis: "Should we open it? It's so bizarre!"
 * Tyrell: (If Matthew responds with anger) "Focus your fury on that crate and crack it open!"


 * Karis: "This is the first time we've been to this part of Angara. I'm scared we'll get lost."
 * Tyrell: "Don't be such a worrywart, Karis. We'll be up and over those mountains in no time!"


 * Karis: "I say we head straight for that town! Let's get our bearings before we go over the mountains!"
 * Tyrell: "There she goes again. Pushing us around..."
 * Karis: "What?! I know full well that Matthew is our leader. I just figured he'd want some input!"
 * Tyrell: "Fine, then. Let's move out before Karis blows a gasket."


 * At Harapa:
 * Tyrell: "A Fire Adept can start fires. But we can't put them out. It's a sore subject for us."


 * Karis: "But controlling Psynergy means controlling our minds. We've got to maintain discipline."
 * Tyrell: "Yeah, and by "we", you mean me, right?! But I'm NOT weak, Karis!"
 * Rief: "You, weak? Of course not! Any son of the Warriors of Vale can surely become a true master!"


 * At Passaj:
 * Karis: "Hey, Tyrell! Throw a fireball at this spot marked with the flame!"
 * Tyrell: "I can't stand it when Karis bosses me around..."
 * Karis: "Just fire it up!"


 * Tyrell: "What are you looking at, gramps?"
 * Bogho: "GRAMPS?! I'm an elder of Passaj! Call me that...or by my name, Bogho! Anything else is disrespectful!"


 * In Kaocho Palace:
 * Chalis: "These are quite...exceptional Adepts."
 * Tyrell: "So, you're Chalis? With a name like that, you've got to be working with that cocky Blados!"
 * King Wo: "Ah, you know of Blados? Then you ARE my Adepts!"
 * Tyrell: "Yeah, like that Chalis lady said... We're, uh, exceptional Adepts."
 * Karis: "Don't say another word, Tyrell!"


 * Tyrell: "Hold on a second! We're not just going to be used like this, are we?!" (If Matthew responds with cheer) "Yeah, there's no way any of us are going to fight in his war! I mean, I like fighting...but not for him."


 * In Ayuthay:
 * Tyrell: "Uh-oh-this guy wants something from us. I can tell!"
 * Karis: "Oh, Tyrell! You shouldn't speak to King Paithos like that!"
 * Rief: "You mustn't, Tyrell!"
 * Tyrell: "What?! Oh, come on! You know I'm no good with this fancy talk!"
 * Paithos: "So blunt! How refreshing! I believe we'll get along perfectly."


 * Tyrell: "Adept this! Adept that! I'm just about fed up! Ever since we left the lookout cabin, all we hear is people talking about us Adepts! Is that how the whole world thinks of us-like we're pulling everyone's strings?!"


 * Paithos: "Surely our pond water won't stand in the way of mighty Adepts like you, will it?"
 * Tyrell: (If Matthew responds with anger) "What, you don't want to go near the water? Well, I hate that even more, but you don't see me complaining!"


 * At Passaj (second visit):
 * Baghi: "I thought I wouldn't get here in time to wave good-bye... But wh-what happened?!"
 * Tyrell: "You tell us! That wasn't much of a cloud passage, Baghi! What about the legends about getting to Craggy Peak?! We got the forge working! I could jump higher than that cloud carried us! You OWE us, Baghi!"
 * Baghi: "I...I don't know what's wrong!"
 * Karis: "Leave him alone, Tyrell! I'm sure that Baghi told us everything he knows!"


 * Baghi: (After hearing about how Amiti apparently received a telepathic message from the Sand Prince) "Er, how did you...? Who spoke to...?"
 * Tyrell: "We found a man in Ayuthay... who's actually a gemstone... and only Amiti can hear him talk. Really, Baghi. You've got to try and keep up better."


 * In Harapa:
 * Tyrell: (After the Ice Queen is defeated and turned into a gemstone) "Well, I guess she realizes her place NOW."
 * Rief: "We defeated her! We have the Ice Queen Stone!"
 * Karis: "We did win, didn't we? But I do feel a little bad, forcing her back in that gem."
 * Tyrell: "We may never learn the true nature of these gemstones. Which came first: the gem or the queen? Well, let's just pocket that stone and be on our way back to Passaj."


 * At Craggy Peak Ruins:
 * Tyrell: "Yeah, no one lives here."
 * Rief: "How can you be so sure?"
 * Tyrell: "The smell. If people lived here, I'd be able to smell some food. But not a whiff."
 * Karis: "Yeesh. Let's just get going, Matthew. Ignore Tyrell."


 * In Te Rya:
 * Karis: "Hello. We were-"
 * Ryu Kou: "What do you want?"
 * Tyrell: "Hey-be polite to the lady! Or do you need me to teach you some manners?"
 * Ryu Kou: "You are the intruders here. If you're looking for a fight, you've found one."
 * Rief: "Hey, hey, hey! We don't want any trouble, do we, Tyrell?"
 * Tyrell: "Hey-I'm not the one being a big jerk!"
 * Ryu Kou: "Is it tiresome to always need your friends to save you from your own mouth?"
 * Tyrell: "Come over here and say that!"
 * Hou Zan: "Stop!" (Hou Zan arrives)
 * Ryu Kou: "But..."
 * Tyrell: "Is it time for YOUR friend to save you from YOUR mouth?"


 * Tyrell: "You guys are the worst guards ever. Wait a minute... You're not dressed for this weather. Are you even FROM here? You're not, are you?! I'm right! These guys are visitors too. They're not in charge here! So let's go in already."
 * Karis: "I think Tyrell's right. Shall we just go in?"
 * Tyrell: (If Matthew responds with cheer) "That's the spirit! But don't forget who you have to thank for getting us in!"


 * Tyrell: "I'm Tyrell, and this is Matthew. Don't mess with us again."


 * In Teppe Ruins:
 * Tyrell: "Whoa! She's a kitty-dog!"
 * Sveta: "Do not mistake me for a dumb animal. Our minds are alike, and I know when I am being insulted."


 * Tyrell: "Hey-even with problems, I think it could be handy to have a mind reader around..."
 * Karis: "Sveta is a person, not a tool you can just use. Don't talk about her like that, Tyrell."


 * Rief: "That Sveta cuts an intriguing figure, eh?"
 * Tyrell: "I just think she'll be an asset to the group...with the mind-reading thing, I mean..."
 * Amiti: "She only offered her services as a guide. Let us not assume too much yet."


 * Rief: "It will be good to see Kraden again."
 * Tyrell: "Yeah, IF the geezer actually made it there."
 * Karis: "Tyrell, there's no need to be rude!"


 * Sveta: "Karis, you are a good person. I like you very much..."
 * Tyrell: "What are the rest of us, then? Chopped liver?"


 * In Kolima Forest:
 * Tyrell: (Upon meeting Tret for the first time) "Tret is ugly..."


 * Tret: "Warriors of Vale? Is that what they're calling Isaac and Ivan and Mia and...? And there was one more... "
 * Tyrell: "Yeah-Garet! Did you just forget about my dad?!"
 * Tret: "Hrooom... Yes, Garet. You're the firebrand's son, eh? What is your name?"
 * Tyrell: "I'm Tyrell."
 * Tret: "Hmmph. Yes, I see Garet in your aura."


 * Tyrell: "Are we going to try to sneak into Belinsk Castle now?" (If Matthew responds with anger) "What are you yelling at me for? I'm not the one who's trying to boil the pirate!"


 * Tyrell: "Whatever. Why would we even want to turn on some dumb Dynamo? We're not turning it on, are we, Matthew?" (If Matthew responds with sadness) "What's with the hangdog look? Did you really WANT to turn on the Dynamo or something?"


 * At Port Rago (second visit):
 * Briggs: "I'll set sail for Belinsk as soon as I've got my boat fixed. Trust me."
 * Tyrell: "Trust you?! Trust the pirate who doesn't care about his own son's execution?!"


 * In Belinsk Ruins:
 * Sveta: (Late into her conversation with Matthew's group) "I walked south to get here, so if we head north, we should get to the castle."
 * Tyrell: "Finally! Some information we can actually use!"


 * Tyrell: "Let's get going. If we talk any longer, Eoleo will be soup by the time we get to him."


 * Tyrell: (To the Tuaparang commanders) "You! Did you jerks follow us all the way down here?!"


 * Arcanus: "Enough. Place the orb in the machine. Now. You don't want to know what will happen if you don't cooperate."
 * Tyrell: "Oh, yeah? I'm kinda curious, actually."


 * Tyrell: "Face us, you masked coward!"


 * In Belinsk:
 * Kraden: "It's true that I don't age, but it's not quite as glamorous as it sounds."
 * Tyrell: "Yeah, it must stink to get to live forever after you're already super-old."


 * Tyrell: (After the Grave Eclipse begins casting a shadow of monster-filled darkness across Angara) "Well, that's it then, right? It's the end of the world."
 * Kraden: "Your father would be disgusted to hear you give up so quickly."
 * Tyrell: "But... What can we possibly do?"


 * Karis: (Upon seeing Briggs' death) "Briggs docked his ship here to save us. It's not right that it's going to cost him his life."
 * Tyrell: "Yeah, the greatest pirate of the high seas should...I dunno, go down with the ship or something."


 * Tyrell: (Sometime after Briggs' death) "Brrr! It just keeps getting colder! How is it this cold in the summer? I can't wait to get back in the cabin."
 * Rief: "Quit complaining. It's disrespectful."


 * Tyrell: "Why are we still awake? None of us slept at all last night! You all do what you want, but I'm taking a nap."


 * Out at sea:
 * Tyrell: "Wait a minute! I thought you knew everything, Kraden!"


 * Tyrell: "Well, you know my vote is always for doing stuff, not sitting around talking about it."
 * Kraden: "And this may actually be our wisest course."
 * Tyrell: "Really?!"


 * In Yamata:
 * Tyrell: (After Kraden tells of how he keeps contact with Piers by carrier pigeon) "But how could that little thing find him with the whole world to pick from? I wouldn’t know where to start!"
 * Kraden: "Then I suppose my pigeon has you at an advantage, Tyrell. Perhaps if I can teach it to throw fireballs, it will put you out of a job..."
 * Tyrell: "Hey! Are you saying that pigeon is smarter than me?!"


 * Tyrell: "Hey, I'm not going to just stand here while Kraden tells everyone his bird is smarter than me! I've always hated pigeons. Stupid, feathery rodents..."


 * At the Apollo Lens:
 * Arcanus: "Tyrell, son of Garet... You seem displeased to see me."
 * Tyrell: "I'm only displeased to see you still breathing!"
 * Arcanus: (Warps down to where the party is) "Ah, the impulsiveness, the overconfidence... You really are your father's son."
 * Tyrell: "Y-you know my dad?"
 * Arcanus: "Obviously."


 * Alex: "You flatter me, Kraden."
 * Tyrell: "And I'll flatten you..."


 * Tyrell: (As the Tuaparang airship flies overhead) "I've got a bad feeling about this..."


 * Tyrell: (To Sveta, who recoils in fear when the Chaos Hound approaches her) "Are you an Adept or not? Use some Psynergy on it!"


 * Tyrell: (After the final battle) "Thanks, Matthew. Thanks for leading us all this way."


 * Tyrell: (Thinking) "You're reading my mind now, aren't you, Sveta? Well, good luck."


 * Back at Belinsk:
 * Tyrell: (To Belinsk's guards) "Sveta is already the queen? You guys move fast."


 * Tyrell: "It's nice to be liked, huh? But it's probably time to get this roc feather home..."
