Storylines
Todd Chandler was the son of Kellam Chandler and Sunny Chisholm. Todd saved his half-brother Joshua Fallon from Kellam when he was going to shoot Joshua. Todd grabbed his father's arm and they wrestled for control of the gun. The gun went off and shot Kellam. Kellam died immediately, and Todd was exonerated of the crime.
Todd became a suspect in the shooting of Alex Marshall because Alex disapproved of Todd wanting to marry his daughter, Jessica Blake. Todd eventually left Salem, but returned in 1985 as part of Savannah Wilder's porn business. He worked as a director, and Savannah asked Todd's half-sister Liz Chandler to appear in a shoot, but Todd warned Savannah not to get Liz involved.
Todd later betrayed Savannah when he learned that her boss Victor Kiriakis ordered her to kill Pete Jannings and Melissa Horton. Todd took a bullet for them, and survived. He worked with them to help bring Savannah down, but Savannah avoided doing any prison time and reconnected with Todd. Todd had a problem with drugs and alcohol and crashed the car he was driving in. Savannah was in the car as well, and was horrifically injured, but Todd died in the crash.
