    AntagonistGTA: Liberty City StoriesYakuza
  • Ken Rosenberg, as they appear in GTA: San Andreas.

    A criminal defence lawyer with a cocaine habit and no nerve, who attaches himself to whoever is currently the most dangerous person in the room. It works for a while in Vice City, and much less well in San Andreas.

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

    The Johnson sibling with the clearest view of all of them, and the only one building something in San Fierro that does not require a gun.

    Asuka's brother, running the Yakuza's casino interests in Torrington and considerably more concerned with appearances than his sister is.

    An English music manager talking his way through Vice City on connections he does not have, and still doing it in San Andreas years later.

    SupportingGTA Online · GTA VChamberlain Gangster Families
  • Lance Vance, as they appear in GTA: Vice City Stories.

    Tommy's partner through the rebuilding of the Vercetti operation, increasingly convinced he is owed an equal share of it and increasingly willing to say so to the wrong people.

    AntagonistGTA: Vice City Stories · GTA: Vice CityVercetti crime family
  • Lance Wilson, as they appear in GTA: San Andreas.

    A Grove Street member permanently on the edge of an argument, who takes the same deal Smoke does and is far worse at hiding it.

    AntagonistGTA: San AndreasGrove Street Families
  • A radio presenter the franchise has followed for two decades, from a Liberty City talk show through a Vice City rock station to whatever will still book him in Los Santos.

    SupportingGTA V · GTA IV · GTA: San Andreas · GTA: Vice City · GTA III

    SupportingGTA: Vice CityForelli crime family
  • Lee Chong

    Chunky Lee

    A Liberty City Triad running a Chinatown noodle stand as a front for Colombian Cartel SPANK, which is what makes him a Leone target rather than a competitor.

    SupportingGTA IIILiberty City Triads

    SupportingGTA: Vice City
  • Leon McAffrey, as they appear in GTA: Liberty City Stories.

    SupportingGTA: Liberty City Stories
  • Lester Crest, as they appear in GTA V.

    SupportingGTA Online · GTA V
  • Little Jacob, as they appear in GTA IV.

    Little Jacob

    Jacob Hughes

    A Jamaican gun dealer out of Dukes who becomes the steadiest friend Niko makes in Liberty City, and the one most likely to answer a phone at four in the morning.

    SupportingGTA IV
  • Louise Cassidy-Williams, as they appear in GTA: Vice City Stories.

    Phil Cassidy's sister, trying to get herself and her daughter away from a husband who will not allow it.

    SupportingGTA: Vice City Stories
  • Lucia at a nightclub in a sequinned top, arms folded, looking at the camera under coloured light with dancers around her.

    Lucia learned to fight before she learned much else, and defending her family is what put her inside the Leonida Penitentiary. She comes out with a plan and no intention of going back — after the life her mother has been describing since their Liberty City days, and done waiting to be given it.

    ProtagonistGTA VI
  • Luigi Goterelli, as they appear in GTA III.

    Bodyguard and business partner to a nightclub owner whose empire is collapsing under its own debts. Competent, exhausted, and pulled between the club, his family in Northwood and everyone owed money.

    Los Santos's biggest rapper, destroyed by the loss of his manager and his lyrics, and rebuilt by the man who took both.

    SupportingGTA: San Andreas
  • Head of the Uptown Riders, an Algonquin motorcycle club with nothing in common with The Lost except the machines, and Johnny Klebitz's most reliable ally outside his own patch.

    SupportingGTA IV: The Lost and DamnedUptown Riders
  • Roman Bellic's girlfriend, and the reason Niko meets half the people he works for in Liberty City — every early introduction runs through her rather than through Roman.

    SupportingGTA IV
  • Manny Escuela, as they appear in GTA IV.

    A former street figure turned community campaigner, filming a documentary about his own redemption while it is still going on.

    SupportingGTA IV
  • Maria Latore, as they appear in GTA: Liberty City Stories.

    Marlene Allen

    A young woman who came to Liberty City to act and is panhandling in Algonquin instead, asking Niko for the fare home.

  • Martin Madrazo, as they appear in GTA V.

    A cartel figure whose patience the crew exhausts early and expensively. Everything he considers owed to him, he collects.

    SupportingGTA III

    AntagonistGTA: Vice City StoriesTrailer Park Mafia
  • Massimo Torini, as they appear in GTA: Liberty City Stories.

    A consigliere sent from Sicily to reorganise Liberty City's families, which in practice means setting all of them against each other.

    AntagonistGTA: Liberty City Stories
  • The owner of the Cherry Popper Ice Cream Factory, which sells rather less ice cream than its fleet of vans would suggest, and who sells the whole thing to Tommy Vercetti.

    SupportingGTA: Vice City
  • The McReary mother, holding a family together on church and appearances while four of her five children work the other side of it.

    SupportingGTA IV
  • One of the drinkers around Vlad Glebov in Comrades Bar, met again later trying to settle what he ran up there.

    SupportingGTA IV

    A well-connected fixer who trades favours across every faction in the city and never quite explains which one she is working for.

    SupportingGTA: Chinatown Wars
  • Melvin Harris, as they appear in GTA: San Andreas.

    Melvin Harris

    Big Smoke

    The friendliest man on Grove Street and the one who sold it. His route from the set's elder statesman to the crack trade's chief beneficiary is the story's spine.

    AntagonistGTA: San AndreasGrove Street Families

    The colonel's daughter, entirely uninterested in the life he has arranged for her and better connected in Vice City's nightlife than he is.

    SupportingGTA: Vice City
  • Michael De Santa, as they appear in GTA V.

    Michael De Santa

    Michael Townley

    A retired bank robber living in Rockford Hills under a name a federal deal gave him after a job in North Yankton went wrong. Nine years of a pool, a therapist and a family who cannot stand him end the moment an old life finds him again.

    SupportingGTA Online

    ProtagonistGTA Advance
  • An enforcer who worked for Ricardo Diaz and stayed on the payroll after Tommy Vercetti took the mansion.

    SupportingGTA: Vice CityVercetti crime family
  • Mike Forelli

    Lips Forelli

    A Forelli capo eating lunch in Saint Mark's while the Leones decide he is a problem, and the reason Joey Leone hands out a car bomb rather than a delivery.
