Dwaine, at some point prior to [[1986]], had become a skilled mechanic working on marine engines along side best friend [[Jethro]] at their [[Boatyard|boatyard]] in [[Viceport]], [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]].<ref>From the mission ''[[Wear Flowers In Your Hair]]'':<br />'''The Truth''': "C'mon, man, there's these two guys I know - used to work on marine engines, 'til the mob bought their business over in Vice."</ref> The two, seemingly comfortable in Vice City, sell their business to [[Vercetti Gang|mob]] [[Gang Leaders|boss]] [[Tommy Vercetti]]. The two, prior to [[1989]], leave Vice City after they could no longer return to the boatyard and settled down in [[San Andreas in GTA III Era|San Andreas]]. The two attend the '89 Fierro Love In, located in [[San Fierro]], where they met [[The Truth]], an aging hippie who began selling them drugs from his farm in [[Leafy Hollow]].
===San Fierro===
Guppy, at an unknown time, joined the [[San Fierro Triads|Triads]], specifically the Mountain Cloud Boys sub-sect, and rose through the ranks, becoming the assistant to the gang's [[Gang Leaders|Dai Dai Lo]], Woozie. He and other Triads, help Woozie overcome his blindness, although they do allow him to win at various games and bets. He first meets protagonist [[Carl Johnson|Carl "CJ" Johnson]] at Carl's [[Doherty Garage|garage]] where he identifies local [[The Pleasure Domes Club|club owner]] and pimp [[Jizzy B.]] and [[San Fierro Rifa]] leader [[T-Bone Mendez|"T-Bone" Mendez]], although unable to identify the '[[Mike Toreno|leader de mysterio]]' of the [[Loco Syndicate]].


Dwayne, presumably unable to find work as a mechanic, began selling hotdogs from a [[Hotdog|hotdog van]] at the tram terminal in [[King's]], San Fierro. The Truth, having befriended [[Doherty Garage|garage]] owner [[Carl Johnson|Carl "CJ" Johnson]], suggests Dwayne and Jethro as good mechanics for the garage and both are later hired. Dwayne and Jethro continue to appear at Carl's garage, initially seen to be [[Deconstruction|working on a car]], [[Zeroing In|playing cards]] with Carl and his garage business partner [[Cesar Vialpando]], [[Test Drive|looking at a car]] and [[Puncture Wounds|sitting at a table]] with Carl.
Guppy meets Carl again when he first goes to the [[Wu Zi Mu's Betting Shop|betting shop]] owned by Woozie, initially not recognising him and then telling him of the boss' 'curse'. He continues to appear alongside Woozie when Carl [[Ran Fa Li (mission)|first meets]] the gang's [[Gang Leaders|Shuk Foo]], [[Ran Fa Li|Ran Fa "Farlie" Li]], and again when Carl acts as a decoy to allow Farlie to escape from Woozie's [[Wu Zi Mu's Apartment|apartment]]. After Farlie's escape, Guppy [[Mobile Phone|phones]] Carl to tell him of his escape.


==Trivia==
Woozie and Guppy later meet Carl as they leave Woozie's betting shop, when Woozie receives bad news. He tells Guppy to join [[Little Lion]] in attacking a [[Da Nang Boys]] freighter. Carl volunteers to take Guppy's place, a decision that saved Guppy's life as the helicopter they use to attack the ship is shot down, killing Little Lion and wounding Carl. Guppy later helps Carl and his ally [[Cesar Vialpando]] in storming the heavily guarded [[Pier 69]], allowing Carl and Cesar to [[Pier 69 (mission)|kill]] Mendez and Carl's former childhood friend [[Ryder|Lance "Ryder" Wilson]]. Guppy then accompanies Woozie when he visits Carl's garage when Woozie suggests destroying the Syndicate's [[Yay Factory|factory]].

Character history

San Fierro

Guppy, at an unknown time, joined the Triads, specifically the Mountain Cloud Boys sub-sect, and rose through the ranks, becoming the assistant to the gang's Dai Dai Lo, Woozie. He and other Triads, help Woozie overcome his blindness, although they do allow him to win at various games and bets. He first meets protagonist Carl "CJ" Johnson at Carl's garage where he identifies local club owner and pimp Jizzy B. and San Fierro Rifa leader "T-Bone" Mendez, although unable to identify the 'leader de mysterio' of the Loco Syndicate.

Guppy meets Carl again when he first goes to the betting shop owned by Woozie, initially not recognising him and then telling him of the boss' 'curse'. He continues to appear alongside Woozie when Carl first meets the gang's Shuk Foo, Ran Fa "Farlie" Li, and again when Carl acts as a decoy to allow Farlie to escape from Woozie's apartment. After Farlie's escape, Guppy phones Carl to tell him of his escape.

Woozie and Guppy later meet Carl as they leave Woozie's betting shop, when Woozie receives bad news. He tells Guppy to join Little Lion in attacking a Da Nang Boys freighter. Carl volunteers to take Guppy's place, a decision that saved Guppy's life as the helicopter they use to attack the ship is shot down, killing Little Lion and wounding Carl. Guppy later helps Carl and his ally Cesar Vialpando in storming the heavily guarded Pier 69, allowing Carl and Cesar to kill Mendez and Carl's former childhood friend Lance "Ryder" Wilson. Guppy then accompanies Woozie when he visits Carl's garage when Woozie suggests destroying the Syndicate's factory.

Las Venturas

Guppy then follows Woozie as he moves to Las Venturas to go over the final preparations for the opening of The Four Dragons Casino. Guppy and some Triads scare off some mob thugs attacking the casinos property, managing to capture one. Guppy tells Woozie, who orders Guppy to 'get rid of him' but Carl tells him to tie the mobster to the hood of a car, which Guppy does, allowing Carl to extract information from him. He then helps Woozie score a hole in one when playing miniature golf inside the casino, moving the cup to help Woozie and then moving the cup to prevent Carl getting a hole in one. He later takes the dynamite that Carl steals from Hunter Quarry.

Carl Johnson, Zero, Wu Zi Mu, Guppy and an un-named man discussing their plans of a casino heist, during Cop Wheels.

Guppy later brings two chips into Woozie's office at the casino, with Woozie guessing that one must be fake due to Guppy's tone. Carl later destroys a Sindacco Family plastic factory that made the fake chip, with Guppy meeting to Carl to find out for Woozie how it went. Carl then illegally takes a photograph of the plans to Caligula's Palace and takes the camera to Guppy, telling him to get the film developed. Guppy then receives a package, later identified as a security card reader, from electronics expert Zero and interupts Carl and Woozie while planning their planned casino heist, inadvertantly volunteering himself for the heist, although he is later shown to care more about the whereabouts of coffee and donuts than the actual plan.

Carl, after telling two eavesdroppers to 'fuck off', gains the attention and concentration of Guppy who later assists him in stealing police motorcycles by driving a car-carrying vehicle along the Julius Thruway to allow Carl to quickly leave the motorcycles and continue stealing more police motorcycles. Guppy later tells Carl of the 'sky cranes after they were described by Zero but refuses to fly them, resulting in Carl stealing the sky crane from a military site and stealing an armored van on his own.
