Biography

Tanner's body.

On the route to Landown aboard Rig D28, Tanner and Sigma-One assisted Delta-One several times. Tanner was Cpl. Damon Baird's grindlift jumpmate for going into the Hollow. However, he and Baird were captured shortly after they landed. Tanner was killed by the Locust, and Delta-One discovered his body in a Locust holding area filled with cells. Pvt. Augustus Cole was upset at Tanner's demise, but they then discovered Baird around the corner, still alive and stuck in his own cell.
