He would go on to run a crack cocaine empire [[North Holland Hustlers]], perhaps the largest operation of its type in [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]]. He claims on a friend activity that he had "entire apartments" full of money. At 19, he had a 13-year-old girlfriend [[Cherise Glover]], who he calls "the love of my fucking life". He also taught [[Playboy X]], who was then less than 10 years old, how to sell drugs. He owned the [[Triangle Club]] in [[Bohan]], but likely just as an investment considering Cherise. | He would go on to run a crack cocaine empire [[North Holland Hustlers]], perhaps the largest operation of its type in [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]].

Dwayne is assumed to have been arrested in very early 1994, and he mentions doing 15 years. He was snitched on by [[Jayvon Simson]], who would also steal his girlfriend in the next few years. Dwayne ran the gang from prison at first, also providing his girlfriend Cherise "cars, houses, apartments, bank accounts, everything!" while inside. In 1999 he was arrested for drug possession with intent to sell, possibly out on parole and reincarcerated, which was perceived as one 15-year stint. | Dwayne is assumed to have been arrested in very early 1994, and he mentions doing 15 years.

[[Playboy X]] (now an adult) assumed leadership of the gang during the 2000s, as many gangs matured from solely crack sales to wider drug sales, other organized crime and even legitimate avenues such as the music and real estate industries. Playboy paid his last prison visit to Dwayne in 2004, no longer having any interest in running with him. At an unknown time, his Triangle Club was taken over by [[Trunchez Brothers|Latino gangsters]]. | [[Playboy X]] (now an adult) assumed leadership of the gang during the 2000s, as many gangs matured from solely crack sales to wider drug sales, other organized crime and even legitimate avenues such as the music and real estate industries.

Dwayne is released from prison and immediately goes to see Playboy at his penthouse. Playboy X eventually pays [[Niko Bellic]] to appease Dwayne by working for him, but Niko genuinely connects with the man as both have been through a lot and have developed a distaste for others. | Dwayne is released from prison and immediately goes to see Playboy at his penthouse.

Niko helps him slowly put his life back together, by settling old grudges and reclaiming the Triangle Club.

However, Dwayne also begins to talk trash about Playboy, and Dwayne's reacquisition of the Triangle Club conflicts with Playboy's business interests. Dwayne knew the effect that his would have on Playboy, doing it anyway out of passive-aggressive angst for turning his back on him. According to Playboy, he offered Dwayne half of his old gang back and he did not accept, likely insulted as he started the gang and taught Playboy business when he was a mere child. Niko is subsequently hired by both men to assassinate one another, in the mission [[The Holland Play]]. Niko must choose whether to kill Forge or Playboy X. | ||
If Niko chooses to kill Dwayne, Forge accepts his fate in sorrow, turning his back to Niko and calling him "fake just like the rest of them!". Niko then shoots Dwayne in the back of the head. Playboy pays Niko, but, in apparent denial, calls him 'cold' for assassinating Playboy's old mentor, and the two never speak again. | If Niko chooses to kill Dwayne, Forge accepts his fate in sorrow, turning his back to Niko and calling him "fake just like the rest of them!".
