Background:
Trevor was born and raised in Canada, near the Canada/United States border. In a conversation with Franklin while hanging out,
he claims he "grew up in five states, two countries, fourteen different homes, eight fathers, three care homes, two correctional
facilities, one beautiful, damaged flower of a mother" and has "served time, my country, your country and myself." Even as a
child, he had a history of rage issues and violent impulses that ruined his attempts to fit into society (notably, it is implied that
he, in a fit of rage, sodomized his hockey coach with a hockey stick and that he at some point strangled a clarinet player). Trevor
also mentions how he killed various animals and "drifters" even during the early years of his life. His father was abusive towards
him, while his mother was overbearing and treated him with condescension. When he was a child, Trevor's father abandoned
him in a shopping mall, which Trevor later burned down in retaliation. Trevor also had a brother named Ryan, who died due to
an unknown accident.
Trevor also reveals that he dropped out of school, which is the possible reason, why he has a lack of some basic knowledge, such
as location of the ancient Rome, which he thought to be a part of America. He also reveals that he has problems with grammar
and does "improvising" when it comes to punctuation. It's possible that he had some formal education, as he mentions during
police chases that he took a night class in criminal law. Trevor does have a knack for being very good with numbers, which is
confirmed by Wade. Later in his life, Trevor discovered that he had a talent for flying jets. He enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air
Forces to pilot fighter jets, but several days prior to completing his training, Trevor was deemed mentally unstable by the
"witch" in charge of psychological evaluations, thus resulting in Trevor's discharge and grounding for life.
After being discharged, Trevor became a drifter and committed petty crimes along the border with no particular goal in mind.
He admits to Lamar that he never committed any serious crimes until he met Michael. They first met each other while escorting
cargo across the border. Trevor himself claimed that the money he was receiving for the job was good along with the fact that at
the time he did not "know enough to check references." While waiting on the runway to meet their employers, Trevor sees not
one, but two dust trails coming up the road, despite the fact that he was told there would be one person meeting them. As the
second guy drives through the gate, the second driver begins yelling at Michael. Trevor gets close to him, shoots off a flare gun
he was carrying at the moment into the second mans eye, killing him. He and Michael both dump the body into a lake after
landing the plane. Trevor stated that going through the turn of events was horrible, as the flare was still burning from the inside
of his head as they dropped him off, disgusting to the point that Trevor and Michael threw up after landing the plane since the
dead man's stench was still inside the cockpit. After the incident, Trevor and Michael created a chagrined relationship and
partnership.
His first job involved robbing a place that cashed checks, however the clerk turned out to be someone who knew Trevor,
resulting in a positive ID, which landed him a sentence of six months in prison, of which he served four. Over time, Michael
developed a relationship with a stripper, Amanda, which created some friction between them, due to Amanda's outspoken
dislike of Trevor. In spite of this, Trevor developed surprisingly friendly relationships with the couple's children, who consider
him their uncle, although Jimmy is understandably nervous around Trevor. Michael grew more careful as a criminal the following
years as he knew he had a lot to lose if he was ever killed or imprisoned. However, this annoyed Trevor, who saw Michael as
"soft." Some time later, Trevor met future accomplice Brad Snider and he and Michael would occasionally commit robberies
together. Michael and Brad would never trust/like each other, however Trevor was quite friendly with Brad and at some point,
Trevor planned to cut Michael off and work solely with Brad.

bodies!"

Trevor
The last time Trevor would see Michael for 9 years.
Trevor and Michael remained partners in crime, until they undertook an ill-fated heist in 2004, alongside Brad and an unnamed
getaway driver in North Yankton. The heist initially ran relatively smoothly until Trevor killed a security guard and the trio had to
fight their way through the police and barely managed to enter the rural town of Ludendorff where a helicopter was due to wait
for them. Unfortunately, their driver got killed and Michael took the wheel, but could not manage to cross the train tracks in
time, and their escape car was hit by a train and wrecked. Despite being too far from the helicopter, Michael insisted they stick
to the plan, and they continued walking towards their helicopter. They were then ambushed by FIB agent Dave Norton, who
fired at the trio, fatally wounding Brad and "injuring" Michael. Trevor refused to leave his friends behind and attempted to fight
off the police until a weary Michael told him to save himself, and Trevor reluctantly made his escape.
As a result of the failed heist, both Trevor and Michael mistakenly believed the other one to be dead. Trevor managed to evade
the police for several years and make a new life for himself in the rural town of Sandy Shores, San Andreas. There, he developed
an addiction to crystal meth, and founded a small criminal business with his new-found partners Ron Jakowski a paranoid
conspiracy theorist , Wade Hebert a juggalo , and Chef a meth cook. The business was named Trevor Philips
Enterprises, which specializes in gun smuggling and the manufacturing and selling of crystal meth. During Trevor's time in Sandy
Shores, he affiliated himself with the Aztecas gang, the redneck hillbilly O'Neil brothers and high-ranking members of The Lost
MC, including the club's leader, Johnny Klebitz. However, their relationship was strained, as Trevor would occasionally have sex
with Johnny's girlfriend, Ashley Butler, much to Johnny's understandable vexation.
Events of GTA V
While once again having sex with Ashley, Trevor learns about the robbery of a jewelry store in Los Santos after a witness quotes
a movie line that was a favourite of Michael's during their time as partners. While Trevor is shocked after hearing about
Michael's sudden re-appearance, he leaves his trailer where he's shouted at by Johnny for having sex with Ashley. While trying
to avoid a confrontation between himself and Johnny by simply walking away, Trevor is pushed to a breaking point as Johnny
continues to express his rage. Finally, Wade, Ron, and Ashley watch in horror as Trevor grabs Johnny by the neck and throws him
onto the ground, then smashes a beer bottle against Johnny's face and begins stomping on his head, instantly killing him.
Immediately afterwards,Trevor, alongside Ron and Wade, attack The Range just outside Sandy Shores. Trevor puts them out of
commission, wiping out most of the crew there (between them, even veterans like Terry Thorpe and Clay Simons), and orders
Wade to figure out where Michael lives. He and Ron do more work, attacking the trailer of Aztecas leader Ortega (he has the
option of killing Ortega or sparing him) and taking over The Lost MC's airbase in Sandy Shores Airfield along with its cargo. He
would later return after a new chapter of The Lost recommissioned there to continue business, blowing up the camp entirely
and removing The Lost's presence once and for all.
Trevor continues to attempt to do business with other organizations including a wealthy Chinese dealer known as Wei Cheng,
who sends his son to Blaine County along with a translator. Trevor attempts to show them his meth lab, but is forced to hide the
translator and Tao in a freezer and face gang members, who want to kill Trevor for attacking Ortega (or killing him). Trevor
manages to kill all of the attackers, however this results in the Chinese backing off from Trevor and doing business with the
O'Neil brothers instead. Enraged after learning the Chinese decided to work with the O'Neils whom Trevor dislikes, Trevor
attacks the O'Neil's household, killing many of the brothers singlehandedly and ends up blowing their farm.
Soon, Trevor receives news from Wade that while there are two Michael Townleys in Los Santos of different ages, there is a
"Michael De Santa" of the same age as Michael would've been who is married with a woman named Amanda and has two
children. Trevor recognizes his old partner's alias, and (after stopping briefly to wipe out a recently-established Lost camp on the
outskirts of town) he and Wade make the trip to Los Santos, where they take refuge in Wade's cousin Floyd's girlfriend's
apartment.
Trevor then tracks down Michael at his home, surprising and shocking everyone in the house. Jimmy then reveals Tracey is
auditioning for Fame or Shame. Trevor and Michael then rush to the Maze Bank Arena, knowing full well that Tracey will
humiliate herself with her terrible dancing in front of the country. The two break into the audition, where Tracey happily greets
Trevor. When the host of the show, Lazlow Jones, began to act sexually towards Tracey during her dance, Trevor and Michael
become angry and give chase to Lazlow.
Trevor and Michael chase Lazlow to the Los Santos River, where Trevor humiliates the celebrity by making him take off his pants
and dance while Trevor records it on his mobile phone. As Trevor leaves, he declares that he is back in Los Santos.
After learning that Floyd works at the Port of Los Santos, Trevor forces Floyd to take him and Wade to the docks dressed as
workers to see if anything worth stealing is present. While there, Trevor learns that a private security force named
Merryweather has a freighter ship containing secret cargo. Assuming the object is valuable, Trevor plans a heist to steal
Merryweather's cargo for himself with Michael's help.
Before it could go underway however, Trevor is contacted by the Federal Investigation Bureau for assistance in extracting a
prisoner held by the IAA. Trevor assists by flying the extraction chopper, which he promptly keeps for himself afterward in lieu of
payment. Trevor also visits Franklin's hood, where he helps the young gangster discover an ambush by a rival gang and assists in
driving them off.
Trevor is brought back to work for the FIB once more, this time to interrogate the person he helped rescue from earlier, Mr. K.
Trevor tortures information out of Mr. K, while Steve Haines watches and asks the questions and relays the answers to Michael
and Dave Norton. After the job is done, Trevor helps Mr. K escape by driving him to the Los Santos airport and telling him to run
away, despite the fact Mr. K lives in Los Santos and has family living there as well.
Eventually, Trevor gets to put his heist into motion and manages to steal the target cargo with the combined effort of Michael
and Franklin. However, Lester Crest arrives to discourage Trevor from taking the cargo, as it is in fact a super-weapon that could
destroy the entire city and the government will stop at nothing to recover it. Trevor refuses to give it up, but is forced to when
Michael and Franklin agree it is not worth keeping it due to its danger. Trevor is outraged at getting nothing out of the heist.
Trevor continues to do jobs with Michael, including assassinating the cousin of Mexican mob boss, Martin Madrazo. However,
Trevor has an infatuation with Madrazo's wife, Patricia, and after payment negotiations fall through with Madrazo, Trevor
kidnaps her, forcing Michael and himself to go into hiding. Whilst in hiding, he assists Michael and Franklin in robbing a bank,
which contains money, extorted by the corrupt Paleto Bay police department from all their local meth labs and weed farms in
order to secure finds for another job and continues running his business. He helps Michael and Dave escape the Humane Labs
and Research facility when they try to steal some chemicals owned by the IAA. Eventually, Michael repays Madrazo with an
artifact he stole, while a reluctant Trevor returns Patricia to her husband.

Upon Trevor's return to Los Santos, he encounters Floyd's girlfriend Debra who has returned from a business trip. Debra quickly
becomes enraged and brandishes a gun at Trevor, and even Floyd picked up a weapon. When they object to his return quite
violently, Trevor ends up murdering the couple and moves into the Vanilla Unicorn strip club after "taking it over" (he kills the
club owner Leon). At this point, he doubts what really happened in North Yankton nine years prior and travels back to North
Yankton to confirm his suspicion that Brad had been buried in place of Michael, with Michael in pursuit. After a stand off at
Michael's (Brad's) grave, Trevor scarpers away as they are ambushed by Triads, which Michael had led to them.
Although he now considers Michael to be his enemy, he aids him nonetheless after Michael is ambushed by the FIB, IAA, and
Merryweather at the Kortz Center. His reasoning for his actions was to pull off the Union Depository heist that Michael had been
planning.
Ending
Trevor helps Franklin and Michael fight off Merryweather and the FIB, then kills Steve Haines at the Del Perro pier before
kidnapping Devin Weston from his mansion and take him to the foothills of Mount Chilliad. The three protagonists push Devin's
car, with Devin in the trunk, off the cliff into the sea and agree with Michael and Franklin to remain friends.






Personality
"I can be myself out here. Bullying, reckless, totally selfish. Do the things that make me, me."
Trevor has been described as a difficult person to deal with, extreme, impetuous, vengeful, psychopathic, unhinged,
unpredictable, untamed, infamous, homicidal, and prone to violent outbursts and destructive rampages. He does everything in a
psychopathic and relentless manner, (much different from Michael). Although Trevor is like this, he is honest about it and will
never show hypocrisy. He has his own charm along with his own principles. However, Dan Houser has confirmed that Trevor
may not be all he seems and is still too horrible to be a hero of any kind. He is also quite insecure about being born in Canada,
and takes offense to people mocking his accent. Almost all of the Rampages are caused by Trevor flying into rage over being
mocked over his Canadian accent. During a mission, Ron asks Trevor about his business dealings in Canada, resulting in Trevor
getting defensive and demands for Ron to clarify. Ron hastily corrects himself by asking about Trevor's business dealings in
North Yankton "along the Canadian border", defusing a possible violent outburst from Trevor, thus showing his insecurity for
being Canadian.
Trevor's mere presence always puts others on edge due to his extremely short temper and unpredictable, impulsive behaviour.
Ron, who is one of Trevor's friends and an unlikely one at that, is constantly terrified of him and frequently tries to appease
Trevor whenever he can, especially if he is close to getting angry. Michael is also wary of him when they reunite, stepping in
front of his son to protect him. Despite Ron's fear and Trevor's psychopathic behaviour, they do seem to show a level of trust to
each other as Trevor usually tasks Ron to do a few missions for him such as blowing up the Lost MC fuel tank and helping him
drop off cargo via a plane, as well as running Trevor Philips Enterprises in his absence. Wade, another friend, is equally scared of
Trevor. Though Trevor torments and punches Wade often, this bullying extends to Wade's cousin, Floyd, as well. In the
Merryweather Heist, he gets angry quickly when his score is compromised. In the offshore ending, he gets so angry that he rams
his face onto a wooden board and repeatedly smashes his face on it.
Out the three protagonists, Trevor can be said to be a true psychopath, as he easily kills with no remorse, has the typical
parental issues (abandoned by his father and sensitive about his mother), is a pyromaniac, frequently abducts people and takes
them to the Altruist Cult (the cult in question is implied to be made up of cannibalistic killers of which Trevor seems to be aware
of) which he calls his "friends in the mountains" and has the habit of making sadistic jokes about his victims. For example, Trevor
jokes around with the parts of brain, left under his boot after he killed Johnny Klebitz and telling Elwood O'Neil over the phone
how Elwood had too many brothers and that they needed "culling". When Trevor kills Johnny, he demands that Johnny get up to
face him, apparently unaware that he killed him. It is extremely unlikely that he cared though due to his plans to get rid of The
Lost and how enraged he was with Johnny. Nevertheless, Trevor quickly moves on and makes a joke out of the blood and brain
tissue on his shoe. In conflict with this behaviour however, is his protectiveness of Michael's family and his apparent grief when
he thought Michael was dead, which shows a level of emotion not common in most sociopaths as they usually have little to no
positive emotions for other people. In addition to this he refused to leave Michael in the prologue, while he was on the ground
after being shot. Trevor seems to only care about the people very close to him and he can be truly loyal to them, which
specifically includes his mother, Patricia Madrazo, Maude, Michael, and later on even Franklin. Brad's death affected him
harshly, leaving him to blame Michael for what happened nine years ago back in North Yankton.
In contrast with his heavily sociopathic behaviour, he has shown many times how needy he is for love and care. He tells Michael
repeatedly how much he mourned him, to the point that he got a tattoo with his name on it. As he was being confronted by
Floyd and Debra, he told them how much he wanted to be with them. His relationship with Patricia was also a display of true
love and, in his words, he enjoyed a lot the time spent with her.

Despite his weak relationship with Amanda and having a strained friendship with Michael, Trevor surprisingly cares for Jimmy
and Tracey, viewing them as surrogate niece and nephew. Evidence of his caring is chasing Lazlow Jones when he does a sexual
pose against Tracey as she performs a stripper-like dance and forcing him to take off his pants and dance in his underwear. Also,
he will not allow Jimmy to drink alcohol when hanging out with him.
Trevor also seems to sometimes dwell on respect. When Wade calls Ashley a bitch, Trevor tells him it's not funny and asks him if
he has a mother (probably due to his sensitivity about his own mother). He also often tells some of his friends to show some
respect to himself, and also sometimes even others. When Wade is covered in what seems like waste, Wade's cousin suggests to
call the heist off, but Trevor responds by telling him to respect Wade for what he went through and so he should carry on with
the heist.
Trevor, despite his heartless behaviour - possesses an awareness for guilt. This is seen in the Strangers and Freaks mission
Minute Man Blues in which Manuel; one of the innocent men captured by Trevor and the Civil Border Patrol members Joe and
Josef in suspicion of being an illegal immigrant in the previous mission An American Welcome, stands up to Trevor fearlessly
despite the latter pointing a gun at him, and claims he and his family have migrated to America since more than 200 years ago,
saying that he is more American than Trevor is. He criticizes Trevor for disregarding civil rights with "Trevor's friends", who are
harassing innocent legal immigrants and, in Trevor's case, in return for money. He adds that, unlike the Civil Border Patrol; he
will not give Trevor a single cent for helping him to stop the Civil Border Patrol. Fuelled by this and Trevor having already felt the
Civil Border Patrol's actions were indeed illegal, he storms into a rage and hunts down and puts and end to the Civil Border
Patrol once and for all.
Trevor uses threats of sexual violence in order to show his dominance over other men, as well as enjoying making them
uncomfortable. Many of his sarcastic remarks have been misinterpreted as sincere statements by players. He seems to take it a
step further with Floyd, as there are many things that suggest a sexual relationship. Notably, if the player switches to Trevor
during his stay at Floyds condo, sometimes Trevor can be seen looking over Floyd as he lays in the fetal position wearing
women's clothing, uttering an apology to Debra while sobbing. However this could just be Trevor showing his dominance by
humiliating Floyd. Also, if the player chooses to catch Ralph Ostrowski, Trevor implies that he sexually abused men while in
prison. It should be noted that this behaviour is only present when in the presence of weak people such as Ron, Wade, Floyd,
and a meth addicted Johnny Klebtiz.
Trevor has showed a lot of hints that he feels sexual attraction towards men too, besides his normal sexual dominant behaviour
towards weaker men. He showed certain interests in the stag do running man random encounter. In the mission I Fought The
Law, Trevor touches the private parts of one of the guys as he's dressed as a police man. During a drink outing with Franklin, he
admits he already have done fellatio on men (I'd rather suck a dick than smoke weed... and trust me, I've done both!). In another
conversation during an outing with Michael and Franklin at the same, time, he admits he's bisexual after Clinton asked him
whether he's gay or not.
Trevor is shown to be disgusted by racism, misogyny, as well as self-righteous and hypocritical attitudes which he considers
"fake." He criticizes the Minute Men and the LSPD for their racist behaviour, reprimands Wade for his remarks toward Ashley,
and threatens Martin for mistreating Patricia. After torturing Mr. K, he mocks FIB's usage of torture as a means of interrogation,
claiming it is only a method of showing dominance and that the government fails to admit this.
While it is never stated in-game, Trevor shows textbook signs of Intermittent Explosive Disorder; a mental condition which
includes episodes of impulsive behaviour that could result in serious damage to anyone and anything around them, aggression
grossly disproportionate to what provoked it, and episodic violence that cannot be categorized with any other existing mental
and physical medical condition.
Trevor appears to suffer from Coulrophobia, since in Grass Roots mission for Barry, dialogue suggests that Trevor once was or
still is scared of clowns, saying such things as "I'm a big boy now" and "you can't hurt me anymore" (paraphrasing). He might
also ask the clowns "Are there any more sex offenders out there!?" This implies that as a child Trevor was raped by a clown thus
causing his fear of clowns. Additionally, when you get Lamar, Franklin, and Trevor to hang out together off mission, Franklin will
mention he's sitting next to "Two Clowns" (Trevor and Lamar) Trevor then starts to get a little worried asking "Clown? Where?!"
which may prove he is still scared of clowns.
Although very rarely seen in game, Trevor appears to be secretly ashamed and a bit scared of the way he's become. When
hanging out with both Michael and Franklin simultaneously, Trevor might reveal in an ashamed tone that he doesn't want his
mother to see him like this. If you hang out with Lamar enough times, Trevor will admit to Lamar that sometimes Trevor realizes
how he's thinking (fixation on violence, horrible brutalities etc.) and gets scared of himself. If you huff gas on Trevor's porch at
his trailer, he might sometimes mutter that he's suicidal. This could hint that all the reckless stunts Trevor commits (such as
flying a crop duster inside a cargo plane while getting shot at with an RPG) might be subconsious attempts of getting killed.
When drunk with Franklin, Trevor talks about being lonely and asks Franklin to hold him. When Franklin replies with jokes,
Trevor starts crying; "Why are you joking!? I said I'm lonely!".
While Trevor is often controlling, loud, and willing to hurt anyone who he perceives as a threat in some way, whether physically
or mentally, he is terrified by his mother. Upon meeting her in his trailer in the mission Mrs. Philips, he speaks incoherent
sentences, is unable to answer questions and runs off to do the job she assigns to him without questioning it.

Appearance
He is frequently seen wearing a plain and dirty white V-neck, ripped up dirty blue jeans or sweat pants and a pair of black boots
to match. He is seen in one screenshot with a different outfit on - a jean jacket with a half buttoned up shirt along with a white
undershirt and a pair of blue jeans. He also has several cuts on his face along with several tattoos including one along his neck
featuring a dotted line and the words "CUT HERE," and a memorial tattoo for Michael on his shoulder, as well as a flying bird
behind his ear, blazing skull on his left hand and the words "FUCK YOU" across his knuckles. Trevor has a visible scar on his
abdomen from what looks to be a knife wound. Trevor also has numerous sores or boils over his lower stomach and back, likely
from his drug addictions. Also, in some screenshots, during the second Grand Theft Auto V trailer and wearing his default outfit,
he is seen wearing a calculator watch on his left wrist. Trevor is average when it comes to weight and build.
During the Prologue mission, which took place 9 years before the game's events, Trevor sports a different appearance. He isn't
bald (although his hairline has started to retreat and there's a small bald spot on the back of his head), has a mullet covering his
entire back of the neck, and sports a mustache. These facial features can be purchased at Barbers around Los Santos, although
Trevor will still look bald with the mullet, like all his hair options. He also lacks his "CUT HERE" tattoo.
He seems fond of buying cheap clothing from Binco and the Discount Shop, while he shows total disdain for buying clothes from
Ponsonby's. Some characters also mention that he is an extremely untidy and messy person when it comes to clothes and
hygiene. Michael calls him a "proto-hipster", because his clothes are never clean and never fit, and Lamar states that he is
always dirty and has a "smell of ass on the distance of three meters".
Skills and attributes
Because he is a former military aviation pilot, he is skilled in both combat and piloting aircraft like helicopters. In the mission
Game Informer saw, Trevor was the one that flew the team to the skyscraper they needed to get their target out of. In the
aftermath, as the team was pursued by law enforcement helicopters, he proved to be an able pilot under pressure. Trevor is also
the master of greed, ambition, and insanity (along with Michael and Franklin), and is seen in many GTA V screenshots
performing many challenging (and some illegal) stunts. Some of those stunts include base jumping, jet-skiing, murdering,
property destruction, and getting chased by the cops. Wade also said that Trevor is "good with numbers", implying that he has
good mathematical skills. Trevor has an excellent perception and intuition, being the only one to figure out that the brick of coke
Franklin and Lamar were buying was actually drywall.
Trevor's special ability is Invulnerability. While active, Trevor can take an excessive amount of damage without dying as well as a
special melee attack that he can perform. By enhancing this skill, you increase its maximum storage capacity, which directly
affects its duration. Trevor's Special skill lasts for 30 seconds when the Stat Bar for Special skill has been maxed out. While in the
ability, he can survive hits from trains, Rhino tank canon shots and being bitten by a mountain lion.











Trivia:
While a Naturalized American Citizen who almost never speaks of it, Trevor is the first Canadian character in the
Grand Theft Auto series. He is also shown he is sensitive of the fact as most of his rampages (3 out of 5) are started
by the mention of his nationality.
Trevor is the first protagonist to kill another protagonist on-screen, he kills Johnny Klebitz in his introduction mission.
While Michael De Santa and Franklin Clinton have the ability to kindly greet people when the player presses right on
the control pad, Trevor on the opposite hand can only taunt people, leading them to either run away or fight him.
If the player uses these taunts, they might notice that a second taunt is always the follow up to the first.
Trevor also gives unique taunts to gang members, overweight people, homeless people, hipsters, the LSPD and the
Elderly.
In Trevor's trailer there is a flag on the wall with the emblem of a special forces unit called the Special Airborne Unit
with the Latin motto 'Confide Nemini'. This could have been the unit that he was training in before his discharge.
Trevor can also buy a Lonewolf jacket from Suburban which has the same logo on the back.
'Confide Nemini' translates into English as "Trust no one".
Trevor gives several hints across the game that he enjoys older women. In the mission Hood Safari, if Trevor uses the
Seashark that the stunt woman is tied in, he says "thats why I prefer older women" when she starts to scream. In the
Strangers and Freaks mission Vinewood Souvenirs - The Last Act, he says to Al Di Napoli that "older woman should
be appreciated, like a fine cheese". Patricia Madrazo, the only woman in the game apart from his mother that he
really likes and respect, is clearly older than him. Mary-Ann Quinn is younger than him, but still pushing 40, and he
develops an instant attraction to her. On the other hand, Trevor can optionally set up booty calls with Ursula, a
random character who is much younger than he is, as well as strippers from the Vanilla Unicorn who likewise are in
their 20s.
Trevor is the first protagonist in the GTA series to have a drug addiction, not including Johnny Klebitz, as he
developed his addiction after the events of TLAD. His drug-taking, however, generally takes place off-screen and not
during normal gameplay, an exception being the Grass Roots side mission, and even then that doesn't involve
Trevor's actual drug of addiction. Only Franklin can actually be made to use drugs outside of missions (smoking pot in
his safehouses).
Trevor is the only one of the three protagonists in Grand Theft Auto V whose feet can never be seen, as he is always
wearing boots even while in his underwear.
He sometimes refers to his company's name as "Trevor Philips Industries" and "Trevor Philips Enterprises." Rarely, he
can be heard saying "TP Conglomerate" like in the mission Scouting the Port.
Sometimes when switching to Trevor, he can be found eating something out of a trashcan on El Rancho Boulevard.
He can also be found vomiting into a wall fountain at the winery in Tongva Hills mentioning that he swallowed a nose
ring in the 90's. In another vomiting scene, he says "Never eat Indian people!", implying his ailment came from either
consuming Indian food, or an Indian person.
He also seem to have random encounters with the police, having an automatic 2-star wanted level as he's escaping
from them.
Before obtaining the Vanilla Unicorn he may be found chasing strippers out of the place.
He may be found having been ejected by security from various high-class establishments around Los Santos, such as
casinos or hotels.
He will also randomly appear in his underwear, or for some reason, Trevor will appear in a dress.
He may also be encountered in the midst of a motor scooter convoy.
Also he can be found in his trailer sticking his head in the sink full of soapy water full of dishes.
In a more sinister vein, Trevor may be occasionally found burying a dead body in the desert, or trying to flush a
severed foot down the toilet in his trailer.
Trevor sleeps for the longest time of all the 3 characters. When saving the game as Trevor, the game skips ahead 12
hours. Franklin sleeps for 8, while Michael sleeps for 6.
Sometimes, the LSPD can be heard taunting Trevor personally over the loudspeaker, shouting things like "Get down
right now, Trevor!" This implies that he has had enough run-ins with the LSPD for them to know him personally.
Sometimes, when switching to Trevor, he will pick a fight with the muscular people at the beach, telling the muscular
guy to give his underwear back.
Sometimes, when visiting Sandy Shores as Franklin or Michael, he can appear in his yard drunk, drinking alcohol and
throwing Grenades.
Trevor's personality is likely based on the character Waingro from the movie Heat.
Trevor's signature color is orange. The selection of the protagonist's signature colors may also be a reflection of the
character's personalities and/or their individual story arcs. Orange is the color of amusement and madness,
reflecting Trevor's chaotic and eccentric lifestyle, his destructive habits and his persistent dark humor. Michael's is
blue, the color of control and depression and Franklin's is green, the color of education and wealth.
It is possible that Trevor may be an Aries as his Zodiac tattoo is a Ram.
Trevor can wear Patricia Madrazo's clothes, they are found in his wardrobe. They could be a symbol of remembrance
to him of Patricia. And/or the fact he wears dresses as well, so he might like wearing women's clothes too.
Dan Houser's Description of Trevor
"Trevor appeared to us pretty much out of nowhere as the embodiment of another side of criminality of freedom,
and of doing what you want. If Michael was meant to be the idea of some version of criminal control or some sort
of bourgeois criminal who tries to go straight and gets sucked back in what about the guy who didn't do that?
What about the opposite guy? What about the guy who just says f--- off every moment, is relentless, doesn't want
to stop taking drugs, doesn't want to stop partying, doesn't want to be told 'no' by anyone, and just completely
revels in chaos?"
"Trevor was the other side of the GTA coin, I suppose. He's the person who's driven purely by desire, resentment, no
thought for tomorrow whatsoever, completely id rather than ego-driven. Constant partying, constant madness. The
only thing he doesn't want to do is stop. He wants to keep going and ride it all to the end. Won't take an insult from
anybody. Kills without remorse, like a true psychopath, but very sentimental for the right reasons when it suits him.
That seemed like another side of the kind of GTA coin or the GTA world, but very rarely as the protagonist. That
seemed an interesting guy to have as a protagonist. Very unlike anyone we've had in a game before. If you began to
develop him and Michael and their previous relationships... We wanted this feeling where you start off thinking
one's good and the other's awful. Then you get spun the other way. Then you get spun back the first way, until you
can't decide."
