Ty Betteridge

Ty Betteridge is a member of the Flinchites whom Mike Walters first met within the Flinchite compound, where he served as Mike's primary captor. Ty has typically adopted a polite and professional persona regardless of the topic of conversation. He is tall and speaks with a British accent, and is about 35 years old.

Ty has been subject to investigation by Base in the form of the Ty Betteridge Data Operation (T.B.D.O.). This operation determined that Ty shot and killed Kasimieras Berzina while at O.V.E.R. At first, the Mikes believed Kasimieras worked for Ty,, but later speculated that Kasimieras was instead Ty's boss. As a scheme to learn more information, Mike and Michael attempted to hand Kasimieras over to Ty, but instead Ty teleported all three of them into the ocean.

Ty demonstrates knowledge of the future state of the world and of spacetime technology. He has expressed distaste for the level of technology Base has access to, and regards Calculators in particular as dangerously rudimentary. This suggests that it is his younger iteration working at O.V.E.R. who is contemporaneous with the present day.

Ty has claimed he is interested in the process of consolidation for medical reasons. This is his justification for experimentation on Edgar as well as Michael.

Ty is involved with WOE.BEGONE and claims to have purchased it from Ryan.

Iterations
Ty is known to have multiple iterations. One of his iterations works at O.V.E.R. and is approximately ten years younger than the Ty who works at the Flinchite compound. This younger Ty was killed by Hunter, in one timeline, and by Edgar in another. A different iteration was killed by Mike at the Flinchite compound during a mission with August Baxter to rescue Michael, though this iteration was saved through the medical application of consolidation.

The Ty iterations refer to each other primarily by colors as names. Of the known Ty iterations, Green has been identified as responsible for the purchase and running of WOE.BEGONE. Yellow works within "Euthanasia," specifically killing Mikes and Edgars, and was killed by Blue during Ryan's attack on the Flinchite compound. Blue works directly with Michaels, and killed Yellow as part of a plot to free his "favorite" Michael. There have also been references to an Orange iteration, who is described as more capable with weaponry and less lenient regarding breaches in protocol.

A further iteration dubbed "Cowboy Ty" went rogue under the influence of Michael, and was claimed to have been killed. However, this iteration now seems to be residing in Texas.

Trivia
During experimentation, Michael informed Ty about himself and Edgar taking a trip to Svalbard. Svalbard is the setting of The White Vault, in which there is a character played by David Ault.
