Biography
Toll Road served as the Demolitions Expert of The Expendables, prized for his ability to destroy fortified structures, create improvised explosive solutions under pressure, and engage in brutal close-quarters grappling. His cauliflower ear — the result of collegiate wrestling — was both a trademark and a point of irritation, notorious for setting him off when teammates joked about it.
Though not as vocal as Caesar or as chaotic as Jensen, Toll Road was a stabilizing force in the Expendables unit. Quiet, disciplined, and precise, he executed demolitions with mathematical calm and grappled enemies with terrifying efficiency.

Recruitment Into The Round Table (Chapter 25 – Knights Recruited)
During Cole Shaw's evaluation and recruitment operation, Toll Road recognized Cole's tactical brilliance and lethal composure. While the rest of the Expendables were impressed, Toll Road respected Cole in a deeper, measured way — the way a seasoned fighter recognizes a new apex predator.
He accepted the Round Table invitation without hesitation, joining Caesar, Christmas, Yin Yang, and Ross as one of Cole's heavy-hitting frontline operatives.

Death — Chapter 65: Crossfire (KIA)
Toll Road died in a firefight triggered by MI6-aligned mercenary forces, during an attempted breach on Luke Hobbs, Dominic Toretto's crew, and Round Table survivors.
He was the first Expendable to fall under Cole Shaw's command.
Final Engagement Summary:
• Toll Road led the stairwell advance during the high-rise assault.
• Automated machine-gun tripods positioned by Luke Hobbs activated.
• Three linked bursts shredded Toll Road instantly.
• Toll Road's final word was a warning to his team: "Bomb!"
• Seconds later, stacked charges detonated across the floor.
• Caesar, Ross, and Yin Yang barely survived the explosion.
Toll Road's death was unambiguous, instantaneous, and irreversible.
Ross, Caesar, and Yin Yang carried the weight silently. The Expendables lose people — but Toll Road was family. His death marked the Round Table's first major operational casualty and hardened Cole's stance against MI6 hostility.

Personality
Toll Road was disciplined, dry-witted, and fiercely loyal.
His unpredictability came not from erratic behaviour but from a willingness to risk his life without hesitation.
Though quiet, he had intellectual leanings — philosophical thoughts expressed in blunt, deadpan delivery.
His sense of humour was understated.
His presence: steady.
His loyalty: unbreakable.
He died as he lived — first through the door, first to take the hit, giving his team a fighting chance.
