'''King Courtney''' is a character in the [[3D Universe]] who appears in [[Grand Theft Auto III]] and [[Grand Theft Auto Advance]]. He is the [[Gang Leaders|leader]] of the [[Jamaica]]n [[Uptown Yardies]] gang. He is voiced by [[Walter Mudu]] in GTA III.


In GTA III, he assigns [[Claude]] jobs from [[Staunton Island]], operating from a payphone located near [[Liberty Campus]]. The primary focus of his jobs are mostly related to attacks against rival gangs, with one of these mission requiring that Claude turn his back against the [[Diablos]] by [[Uzi Rider|killing]] several of its members. The final "job" involved Claude [[Kingdom Come|being lured into a trap]], where [[Catalina]] has dispatched vans of "[[SPANK]]-ed up madmen" suicide bombers to kill Claude, an act that subsequently fermented relationships between Claude and the Yardies. He is never seen in person in Grand Theft Auto III, but does during his appearances in Grand Theft Auto Advance.

King Courtney was born in Jamaica, but moved to [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]] sometime before 2000. There he joined the [[Uptown Yardies]] and began to rise through their ranks, eventually becoming the gang's leader and leading it to war with the [[Colombian Cartel]]. He operated out of his yacht docked in [[Newport]] and was prominently involved in several illegal activities, including street racing, loan sharking and drug dealing.


In Grand Theft Auto Advance, he appears as [[Mike|Mike's]] fourth boss. Involved in a turf war with the [[Colombian Cartel]], Courtney is also involved in illegal racing around Staunton Island. He and his gang would serve as another primary antagonist alongside the main antagonist [[Vinnie]] near the end of the storyline and he is supposedly killed in one mission but he makes an appearance in GTA III set 1 year after GTA A.

In 2000 Courtney sends his men to [[The Bar]] in the [[Red Light District]] of [[Portland]] to collect money he lent to the bar's owner, [[Jonnie]]. Jonnie is found murdered and the Yardies drive back to Courtney's Yacht to report. [[Mike]] who has followed the men, holds King at gunpoint believing him to be responsible. After everything is explained, Mike agrees to work for King in return for finding out who was behind [[Vinnie|Vinnie's]] [[Getaway|death]]. He employs Mike as a driver in a [[Race to Run|big race]] with the [[Yakuza]]. He then has him steal [[Latin Coffee|coffee cans]] belonging to the Colombian Cartel.

Character history

Life until 2000

King Courtney was born in Jamaica, but moved to Liberty City sometime before 2000. There he joined the Uptown Yardies and began to rise through their ranks, eventually becoming the gang's leader and leading it to war with the Colombian Cartel. He operated out of his yacht docked in Newport and was prominently involved in several illegal activities, including street racing, loan sharking and drug dealing.

2000

In 2000 Courtney sends his men to The Bar in the Red Light District of Portland to collect money he lent to the bar's owner, Jonnie. Jonnie is found murdered and the Yardies drive back to Courtney's Yacht to report. Mike who has followed the men, holds King at gunpoint believing him to be responsible. After everything is explained, Mike agrees to work for King in return for finding out who was behind Vinnie's death. He employs Mike as a driver in a big race with the Yakuza. He then has him steal coffee cans belonging to the Colombian Cartel.

Later, Courtney tries to convince him that the Cartel's leader Cisco was responsible for the murder. Though reluctant, Mike agrees to assassinate Cisco and assaults the Cartel at their meeting place. Killing several lieutants, but missing his target, Mike goes back to Courtney, who has by now managed to track down Cisco. Mike attacks the Colombians at a restaurant in Belleville Park but is convinced of Courtney's treachery and begins working for them.

About a week later, a new war sparks after the Yakuza discover that the Yardies have been supplying their restaurants with bad fish, resulting in several lawsuits. In spite of this, Courtney quickly ends his feud with the Cartel after learning of Cisco's death and tries to stay away from them so as to not relight the conflict.

After learning of the airport shootout, Courtney believed that Mike came into possession of all of Vinnie's money and started a city-wide manhunt for him. Mike finds out about this after questioning the Cartel's new leader and eliminates all the hitmen. He then attacks the Yardies' warehouse with the Yakuza. During the shootout, Mike was able to severly injure Courtney, but due to the arrival of the LCPD didn't have time to kill him and had to escape.

2001

He also employs Claude, contacting him through payphones and has him prove himself in a checkpoint race. Later, he orders Claude to kill some Diablos members after they insulted his girlfriend and collect gang cars from the Diablos, Leones and the Yakuza.
