Early on, he comments to Franklin on how much he enjoys working for Simeon and how much it's going to suck when Simeon eventually betrays them or asks them to do something completely sick [[EvenEvilHasStandards even by their standards]], forcing them to turn on him. Doubling as a MythologyGag, with that being the standard set up for a GTA game, he's sadly unaware of how unimportant he is to the story thanks to the presence of Mike and Trevor alongside Franklin.
** In possible Foreshadowing, he mentions this is Franklin's issue...Franklin tends to look for a way out FAST, and it blows up in his face.

* BasementDweller: He doesn't live in a basement, but he otherwise fits all the rest of this trope's definition, leeching off of his parents, living in their house on their dime, and refusing to grow up.
* CallingTheOldManOut: Is brave (or stupid) enough to call his retired gangster father an asshole right to his face. In fact, the ''first'' thing he does after being rescued from Michael's stolen yacht is the mention the dysfunction of their family.
* ComplainingAboutRescuesTheyDontLike: Mind you, he doesn't do it ''during'' the actual rescue, but after Mike and Frank save him from the guys stealing the Yacht, he does nothing but complain about how psychotic Mike is for engaging in that kind of behavior, killing those guys, instead of calling the cops.
* DumbassTeenageSon: Though no longer teenaged, he still fits the mold.

* {{Hypocrite}}: He criticizes[[note]]That word does not begin to convey the amount of shit he gives his father[[/note]] Michael for the same behavior that he admires Franklin and Trevor for committing.
* LazyBum: As Michael says while talking to his shrink, all Jimmy does is sit in his room all day smoking pot, masturbate, and play video games. Although Michael does get him out of the house from time to time.
* NWordPrivileges: He doesn't have them, but he still refers to himself as "nigga" when playing video games.
* PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy: He speaks in hip-hop slang that he heard on the radio, and wears a Fruntalot shirt (a parody of urban wear brands like Fubu). His father mocks him for it in one scene.

->"[[GangBangers Gangsta]] shit, [[NWordPrivileges nigga]]!"

->'''Voiced by:''' Slink Johnson

Franklin's "crazy" friend and fellow employee at Deluxe Premium Motorsport. Appears to bug Franklin about his attempts to leave the gang behind.
----
* CoolPet[=/=]RightHandAttackDog: Chop.
* DamnItFeelsGoodToBeAGangster[=/=]TheFatalist: Zigzagged -- while he expresses pride of his gangster "heritage", he also acknowledges that he, Franklin and the rest of their homies will never truly be able to escape that kind of life.
* {{Expy}}: Of [[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoSanAndreas Lance "Ryder" Wilson]], made explicit in the first few missions, which are a CallBack to ''San Andreas''. Specifically, the first thing he does is to tell you to get a haircut (calling it "raggedy-ass"), and then immediately botch a crime when his lame disguise is seen through.
* GangBanger: Unlike Franklin, he's proud of his "heritage", claiming it's the only thing they have.
* MixedAncestry: He has some Apache blood.
* NWordPrivileges
* OddFriendship: With Trevor. They are both crazy. Trever MUCH moreso.
* RedOniBlueOni: The red to Franklin's blue.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Lamar literally thinks of himself as a GTA Protagonist.
* TattooedCrook
* TooDumbToLive: [[spoiler: Yes Lamar, it's a brilliant idea to enter into a drug deal with a gangster you previously tried to kidnap in an abandoned warehouse. Nothing sketch about that.]]
* VitriolicBestBuds: Seems to have this relationship with Franklin, though with strong emphasis on "best buds". [[spoiler:His loyalty eventually pays off, even when Stretch betrays them to the Ballas. In fact, in the ''C Option'' ending, he even becomes your fourth man during the shootout at the foundry.]]
* WrongGenreSavvy: Early on, he comments to Franklin on how much he enjoys working for Simeon and how much it's going to suck when Simeon eventually betrays them or asks them to do something completely sick [[EvenEvilHasStandards even by their standards]], forcing them to turn on him. Doubling as a MythologyGag, with that being the standard set up for a GTA game, he's sadly unaware of how unimportant he is to the story thanks to the pressence of Mike and Trevor alongside Franklin.
** In possible Foreshadowing, he mentions this is Franklin's issue...Franklin tends to look for a way out FAST, and it blows up in his face.
** Lamar also says this shortly before LAMAR HIMSELF betrays Simeon, by stealing a bike.

->"[[ReallyGetsAround Come on, you horny little motherfucker.]] You need boot camp or some shit." -- Franklin

Lamar's trusty pet rottweiler, whom Lamar often brings along when he and Franklin go on repo jobs.
----
* AngryGuardDog
* CoolPet
* ReallyGetsAround: Animal version -- when walking Chop, he would occasionally hump any dog within sight, female ''and'' male alike.
** Gets into AnythingThatMoves territory when one of Lamar's [=LifeInvader=] posts says he fucked a cat!
*** A bit of TruthInTelevision, male dogs will hump damn near anything.
* RightHandAttackDog
* TeamPet
* UndyingLoyalty: To Franklin and Lamar.

[[folder:Simeon Yetarian]]
->"You tell me exactly what you want, and I will very carefully explain to you why it cannot be."

->'''Voiced by:''' Demosthenes Chrysan

The Armenian owner of Premium Deluxe Motorsport, the car dealership where Franklin and Lamar work, and a corrupt sleazeball who tricks yuppies into spending beyond their means on the fanciest cars on the lot, then dispatches Franklin and Lamar to repossess the cars when the payments stop coming in.
----
* BaldOfEvil: Well, Bald of Sleaze anyway.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive
* FakeNationality: Simeon is Armenian. His voice actor, Demosthenes Chrysan, is obviously a Greek.
* HonestJohnsDealership: He runs one.
* {{Jerkass}}
* LaserGuidedKarma: Michael catches Franklin repossessing his family SUV at Simeon's orders, holding him at gunpoint and making him crash through Premium Deluxe Motorsport's glass window. Cue Michael beating the shit out of Simeon ([[KickTheSonOfABitch with actual player control]]), then saying he really doesn't want to make a return visit before leaving.
* LoanShark
* NationalStereotypes: Of the Armenian diaspora, specifically of its unethical businessmen.
* SmugSnake
* StarterVillain: His main purpose is to get Franklin introduced to Michael. He lasts two missions before Franklin and Lamar leave him.
* WoundedGazelleGambit: Most of his ploys to get people to agree to his ridiculously expensive financing deal is to accuse them of being racist against him. The fact that he has two large, muscular black men working as his repo guys doesn't really help the poor shmucks he pulls it on.

!!Trevor's Friends, Family and Associates

[[folder:Ronald "Nervous Ron" Jakowski]]
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/FotoFlexer_Photo84_3439.jpg
->'''Voiced by:''' David Mogentale

Trevor's friend and next-door neighbor in the Blaine County trailer park where he lives. He is portrayed as a paranoid ConspiracyTheorist.
----
* TheChewToy: To Trevor.
* ConspiracyTheorist
* NervousWreck: You would be, too, if you lived next door to the most dangerous man in Blaine County.
* PutOnABus: Minor case. He spends much of the game handling Trevor's business while Trevor goes off and does stuff in Los Santos.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Wade Hebert]]

A highly dim-witted but loyal friend of Trevor’s.
----
* ButtMonkey: Puts up with a lot of shit ([[spoiler:at one point ''literally'']]) as one of Trevor’s favorite punching bags and being dragged along on his schemes.
* TheDitz: Very much so.
* HatesBaths
* {{Juggalo}}: Wears [[Music/InsaneClownPosse ICP]]-inspired clothing and occasionally face paint.
* KindheartedSimpleton: He’s not very smart, but his blissful ignorance gives him a rather friendly and cheerful disposition.
* ManChild
* VocalDissonance: His voice... doesn't really fit his looks.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Floyd Hebert]]

An easily intimidated and bumbling man who is the cousin of Wade.
----
* BreakTheCutie: The "cutie" part is debatable, but overall he's an honest man that believes in hard work, and is so soft spoken and spineless that it's almost endearing... and then Trevor does his best to utterly break him. Abusing him, hitting him, stealing from him, forcibly involving him in his criminal schemes, ''raping'' him, and [[spoiler: eventually killing him]], all the while trashing his home and turning it into a pigsty while he's too weak to do anything about it.
* ButtMonkey: Even more so than Wade. It appears to [[Main/ItRunsInTheFamily run in the family]].
* ExtremeDoormat: To both his overbearing girlfriend and to Trevor.
* [[spoiler:KilledOffForReal: Is brutally murdered in his apartment along with his girlfriend by Trevor, [[GoryDiscretionShot although exactly what Trevor did to them is left to the imagination]].]]
* KindheartedSimpleton
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Chef]]

An employee of Trevor Phillips Enterprises, Chef runs Trevor's methlab. When business slows, he doubles as a gunman on heists.
----
* {{Badass}}: In stark contrast to the rest of Trevor's friends, who are weaklings he bullies around, Chef is a certified badass. How bad? He's equal to Packie as a gunman.
* TheBrute: For Trevor Phillips Enterprises.
