History Characters / GrandTheftAutoVTrevorPhilips

** During the Paleto Score Setup, if you win the race back to the meth lab as Michael, Trevor [[PsychpathicManchild mockingly mimics Michael's sardonic "What took you so long?" in a whiny voice]].

* SoreLoser: While he's playing golf, there's at least a PrecisionFStrike when he gets a bogey. And he always [[UnsportsmanlikeGloating insults the winner]] after the game.

* InsistentTerminology: He's ''not'' a motherfucker. It's not legally "fucking" if you do not "penetrate".

* MooseAndMapleSyrup: [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial He is definitely not Canadian. OK, barely Canadian. In fact, he was born so close to the border that he probably doesn't count as Canadian at all.]] Long story short, he's deeply ashamed of his heritage, and bringing it up is a major BerserkButton. Merges a bit with ActorAllusion, since Steven Ogg himself is Canadian.

** Unknowingly, making fun of his [[CanadaEh Canadian heritage]].

* CanadaEh: [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial He is definitely not Canadian. OK, barely Canadian.

Merges a bit with ActorAllusion, since Steven Ogg himself is Canadian.
-->"'ABOOT'?! I DON'T EVEN SOUND THAT CANADIAN!"

** Whenever someone points out he's a [[CanadaEh Canadian on American soil,]] he reaches for whatever firearm is near him and starts spraying.

** [[spoiler:Patricia Madrazo, wife of ruthless Cartel boss Martin Madrazo. Despite his original intent to kidnap her and use her as leverage because Martin refused to pay him, ''the two genuinely ended up bonding''. Given how abusive Martin is with her, she likely loves him.]]

** The most noticeable example is racism and bigotry, as he is EqualOpportunityEvil.

** He can be surprisingly eloquent in his speech at times, and it's implied he knows quite a bit about economics.
** Despite his AxeCrazy behavior Trevor is actually quite perceptive when he wants to be. Hood Safari demonstrates this, where he immediately recognized foul play based on a drug dealer's specific way of showing off cocaine to hide the fact that the brick was fake.

* NiceMeanAndInBetween: ''Definitely'' the mean one. If you're being robbed by the three, he'll kill you for any reason, or no reason at all. In addition, his carjacking animation while unarmed has him bounce his unfortunate victim's face off the car's steering wheel before flinging them out the door.

** In "Fresh Meat", after tripping over Franklin's fence, Trevor responds to the former's laughter with an angry profane rant, threatening to put Franklin into the ground for laughing and ending it with calling him a "motherfucker", the one swear Trevor refuses to use or take from anybody. Him finally using it in his rage indicates the guilt he's feeling from leaving Michael to die to the Triads (or so he thinks).[[labelnote:*]]Although the real reason being that Steven Ogg [[ThrowItIn ad-libbed]] the whole rant due to tripping for real, likely forgetting about Trevor's aversion to the word.[[/labelnote]]

** Despite his insanity and immorality, he seems to genuinely care for Michael's children, or at least Tracey. He is infuriated when he learns that a television show plans to embarrass her in front of the nation, and she even seems happy to see him! [[spoiler:He even drives off Mr. K -- the guy he ''viciously'' tortured minutes earlier on Steve's orders -- to the airport, instead of killing him as Steve wanted, urging him to leave Los Santos for good.]]

* RageBreakingPoint: It's implied the combination of realizing Michael was still alive and Johnny calling him out for screwing Ashley is what was ultimately the final straw for Trevor's tentative truce with the Lost MC: while they were perfectly fine coexisting to some degree beforehand, those two events caused Trevor to [[spoiler:stomp Johnny to death, kill everyone in the Lost MC and most of the O'Neil brothers, and take over as the sole meth provider in Los Santos.]]

* SmarterThanYouLook: Despite his ugly, disheveled appearance and psychotic behavior, Trevor is actually very observant and cunning though also has no ability for the long-term planning that planning proper heists requires, which is why he ultimately needs guys like Michael and Lester around.

** Despite being best friends, he and Michael are constantly bickering with each other. [[spoiler:Subverted later on. He spends a good portion of the game wanting to kill Michael. It's just always one step down his list...]]
** Trevor also gets along surprisingly well with Lamar, who seems to be one of the few people not afraid of him - the two trade barbs and insults like clockwork.
