Trevor Philips

Trevor is known to have a generally reckless and very aggressive behavior, but he is also very loyal and deeply respects all those close to him. Trevor's story focuses on how his actions have consequences on both himself and his friends. Even as a child, he had a history of rage issues and violent impulses that ruined his attempts to fit into society. 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 sociopathic and relentless manner. 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. He is also quite insecure about being born in Canada. Even strangers who have seen very little of him can be put off by his presence. 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, Raine, Maude, Michael, and later on even Franklin and Lamar. In contrast with his heavily sociopathic behaviour, he has shown many times how needy he is for love and care. Despite his heartless behaviour, Trevor possesses an awareness for guilt. Trevor is shown to be disgusted by racism, misogyny, as well as self-righteous and hypocritical attitudes which he considers "fake". Trevor uses threats of sexual violence to show his dominance over other men, as well as enjoying making them uncomfortable. By the other hand, he respects and encourages bravery on his friends and partners in crime. During job preparations, he often tends to taunt and call out anyone who shows a sign of doubt, fear or weakness, and when they get back angrily at him, Trevor applauds and approves their reaction as a way to man them up. In direct contrast to his erratic and chaotic nature, Trevor also appears to be highly intelligent and somewhat cultured. Although seemingly lacking of refined tastes, Trevor speaks in the most eloquent manner out of his crew (Michael, Franklin, Raine), utilizing elaborate and complex vocabulary as well as displaying a surprisingly dry wit. It must be noted that having studied 4 years at a military academy, Trevor is the only GTA protagonist to date with a college degree, possibly explaining his use of complex vocabulary and hinting at a sophisticated nature that he might or might not be intentionally masking. Trevor is incredibly focused and professional on the jobs at hand, displaying a surprising capacity for calculation and planning, even under duress and in highly chaotic situations.
