Official biography

"Tyson has been friends with Mick and Grayson for ages, and though he's competitive, they make him look laid-back. He joined the League when Ali did, to try to impress her, and he has gotten really into it since. He just got his driver's license and wants to buy a super-fast convertible someday."
