==Personality==
Tommy Vercetti is depicted as both intelligent but temperamental, easily angered and quick to resort to violence. He has no hesitation about killing, though many of his victims are in turn trying to kill Tommy as well, or have done something that reqires the need for them to be killed. The story does not require Tommy to kill innocent people. Tommy does also show a softer side as seen with his relations with [[Mercedes Cortez]] and [[Earnest Kelly]], who he views as a father figure due to childhood memories of working with his father at a printworks.
