  • The second of the three Albanians collecting on Roman's debts.

    SupportingGTA IV

    Robert Jefferson

    A former Secretary of Security Enforcement whose speech on foreign gangs is worth a Gambetti escort to hear delivered.

    SupportingGTA IV
  • Boobie sitting back in an office armchair in a patterned jacket and sunglasses, holding a roll of banknotes.

  • Brian leaning out of the passenger window of a pickup truck on a wooded road, a younger man driving.

    A survivor of the Keys smuggling era who still moves product through his boat yard, with his third wife Lori alongside him. Jason has a roof from him, and the rent is paid in favours.

    SupportingGTA IV

    A street-racing promoter with a steroid habit, a helicopter and an unshakeable belief that he is the most impressive man in any room.

    SupportingGTA IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony · GTA IV
  • A buyer working his way into the Vances' operation, and an undercover federal agent doing it — which Victor finds out later than he should.

    SupportingGTA: Vice City Stories
  • The mob boss the original game's Liberty City work comes from — a voice on a payphone with a rap sheet running to murder, robbery and extortion, and the man who eventually puts the player on a flight out to the next city.

    SupportingGTA
  • Another of Derrick McReary's old associates, and another name on the same list.

    SupportingGTA IV
  • Cal on a crazy golf course in a palm-print shirt and bucket hat, a putter over his shoulder.

    Cal keeps to himself with a scanner tuned to Coast Guard traffic and a drink within reach. He is content at the bottom of the map and would happily stay there. The trouble is that Jason is not.

    SupportingGTA VI
  • Cam Jones

    Klepto Cam

    A safecracker with a business of his own and a compulsion that keeps putting him back in a cell. Tommy Vercetti takes him out of one to open a bank.

  • Carl Johnson, as they appear in GTA: San Andreas.

    Home in Los Santos after five years in Liberty City for his mother's funeral, and stopped by the same two police officers who drove him out. Rebuilding the family's standing turns into rebuilding most of the state's.

    ProtagonistGTA: San AndreasGrove Street Families
  • A pizza delivery man killed on a contract placed with Mr. Black, for a reason the game never gives.

    SupportingGTA: Vice City
  • A Bohan nurse who dispenses medical advice online with rather more confidence than qualification.

    SupportingGTA IV: The Lost and Damned · GTA IV
  • Catalina, as they appear in GTA: San Andreas.

    Shoots her partner on the steps of the bank they have just robbed and spends the rest of GTA III trading up through Liberty City's organisations. San Andreas, set five years earlier, shows her doing the same thing to somebody else.

    AntagonistGTA: San Andreas · GTA IIIColombian Cartel
  • The head of Liberty City's bikers, billed by the nickname rather than the name, and dealing out of the gang the same way the families deal out of theirs.

    AntagonistGTA: Liberty City Stories
  • Cesar Vialpando, as they appear in GTA: San Andreas.

    Kendl's partner and the leader of the Varrios Los Aztecas, distrusted by Carl on sight and the first person to tell him the truth about Smoke and Ryder.

    SupportingGTA: San AndreasVarrios Los Aztecas
  • Chan Jaoming, as they appear in GTA: Chinatown Wars.

    Hsin's son, who expects to inherit the organisation and has done nothing to earn it beyond being born into it.

    SupportingGTA IV

    Lamar's Rottweiler, more often in Franklin's care than in Lamar's, and the best tracker either of them has access to.

    SupportingGTA V
  • The Colombian Cartel's man in Liberty City, and one of the factions Mike ends up working for while looking for the people behind the bombing.

    SupportingGTA AdvanceColombian Cartel
  • A dealer running his own set out of an East Holland housing project, and the name Francis McReary wants taken off the street.

    SupportingGTA IV
  • Claude, as they appear in GTA: San Andreas.

    Left for dead by his partner during a bank job and freed from a prison transport by an explosion he had nothing to do with. Says nothing at all for the length of the story and works his way through every organisation in Liberty City regardless.

    ProtagonistGTA: San Andreas · GTA III
  • The protagonist of Grand Theft Auto 2, named by the game's own live-action promotional film rather than by anything in its missions. He works every gang in all three of Anywhere City's districts, which is the point of the game: standing gained with one is standing lost with its rivals. Nothing in the series connects him to Grand Theft Auto III's Claude.

    ProtagonistGTA 2
  • Clay Simons, as they appear in GTA IV: The Lost and Damned.

    A long-serving member of The Lost who keeps the chapter's bikes running and its arguments from becoming permanent.
