'''Builders''' are a type of NPC that are found in every game in the [[Grand Theft Auto]] series.
'''Builders''' are [[NPC]] [[pedestrians]] found around every city in every [[Grand Theft Auto]] game. They are most commonly found at industrial neighborhoods of cities and in [[Construction Sites|construction sites]]. In the [[GTA III Era]], most builders look very similar, some sharing the same pedestrian model, and usually wear common jackets and shirts, jeans and hard hats. Since the [[GTA IV Era]], builders appearances look more varied and are found doing lots of different activities.
As the name states, they are NPCs that act as builders. In [[Grand Theft Auto:Vice City]], Builders are commonly found in [[Viceport]] and around [[Avery Carrington]]'s construction site. The Builders in [[Vice City]] wear yellow helmets, white singlets, blue jeans and black shoes and look overweight. Builders are commonly seen driving around Viceport and Avery Carrington's construction site in construction and industrial related vehicles (mostly [[Mule|Mules]], [[Benson|Bensons]], [[Yankee|Yankees]], [[Burrito|Burritoes]], [[Rumpo|Rumpos]], [[Pony|Ponies]], [[Trashmaster|Trashmasters]], [[Packer|Packers]], [[Flatbed|flatbeds]], [[Bobcat|Bobcats]], [[Walton|Waltons]] and [[Securicar|Securicars]]. Some builders carry [[Hammer|Hammers]] and [[Screwdriver|Screwdrivers]]; the player can obtain one by killing the builder and stealing it.
