Authors notes.
This is a look into the the universe of Blade Runner. Obviously Replicants have, as yet, not been created so we can think of that universe as an alternate one. With the original book and movie we are more than aware of what happens in the latter years of Dr Eldon Tyrell and The Tyrell Corporation.
What I have done here is attempt to create a background for the good Doctor and his company. I was surprised to find there were no details of his life or of the creation of Tyrell Corps. Hopefully there are no inconsistencies.
I have created his parents and brother as well as his life story from birth to death with the origins of the company thrown in for good measure as well as details of the development of the Nexus series. The incept or "birth" dates of the various Replicants are shown in the movie and were easily Googled.
Some information courtesey of Aaron Brinkley at https://www.bladezone.com/ (formation of BR units, hiring of Bryant, Holden, Deckard, Gaff)
Originally I started doing the time line to act as research to write an ordinary story which was intended to be about the formation of the Blade Runner Unit and the first Nexus unit to go rogue. As the time line developed, it acquired such detail that I decided to present the story in a different way and just use the time line itself to tell the story of the life of Eldon Tyrell and the Nexus series.
At some future time I may choose to write the story I originally intended to write here.
