	==Character history==		==Character history==
	===Early life===		===Early life===
	Ryder was born in [[Los Santos in GTA III Era\|Los Santos]], likely in [[Ganton]] due to his close relationship with [[Sweet]] and [[Carl Johnson]], and he later became a member of the [[Grove Street Families]]. He was once thrown out of school for beating up a teacher who was wearing [[Ballas]] colours, although Ryder claims this was because he was too intelligent for school. He rose up the ranks of the gang before becoming one of Sweet's closest allies, being helped by ~~the~~ departure ~~of Carl Johnson~~ in [[1987]] following his [[Brian Johnson\|~~brothers~~]] death. ~~The~~ Grove Street Families, however, began to lose influence, power and money to their arch rivals, the Ballas, due to their stance against the sale of drugs, which was fueling the Ballas' rise to prominence. ~~[[Big~~ Smoke]] attempted to convince Sweet about the benefits of selling drugs but failed, later meeting Ryder in his [[Ryder's House\|house]] where he convinces him to join his newly formed alliance with the Ballas. The alliance is later expanded to include the [[Los Santos Vagos]] and [[Russian Mafia]], while another was established with the [[Loco Syndicate]], who began supplying the new alliance with drugs from their base in [[San Fierro]], although they do not realize that an [[Mike Toreno\|undercover government agent]] is involved in the operation. Ryder and Smoke also played a part in the murder of [[Beverly Johnson]] ~~(the mother of Sweet and Carl)~~, which was committed by the Ballas using a green [[Sabre]], although they were aiming for Sweet.		Ryder was born in [[Los Santos in GTA III Era\|Los Santos]], likely in [[Ganton]] due to his close relationship with brothers and gang leaders [[Sweet\|Sean "Sweet" Johnson]] and [[Carl Johnson\|Carl "CJ" Johnson]], and he later became a member of the [[Grove Street Families]]. He was once thrown out of school for beating up a teacher who was wearing [[Ballas]] colours, although Ryder claims this was because he was too intelligent for school. He rose up the ranks of the gang before becoming one of Sweet's closest allies alongside childhood friend [[Big Smoke\|Melvin "Big Smoke" Harris]], being helped by Carl's departure in [[1987]] following his [[Brian Johnson\|brother Brian Johnson's]] death. Later, the Grove Street Families, however, began to lose influence, power and money to their arch rivals, the Ballas, due to their stance against the sale of drugs, which was fueling the Ballas' rise to prominence. Smoke attempted to convince Sweet about the benefits of selling drugs, having secretly formed an alliance with the Ballas under duress from corrupt C.R.A.S.H. officer [[Frank Tenpenny]], but failed, later meeting Ryder in his [[Ryder's House\|house]] where he convinces him to join his newly formed alliance with the Ballas. The alliance is later expanded to include the [[Los Santos Vagos]] and [[Russian Mafia]], while another was established with the [[Loco Syndicate]], who began supplying the new alliance with drugs from their base in [[San Fierro]], although they do not realize that an [[Mike Toreno\|undercover government agent]] is involved in the operation. Ryder and Smoke also played a part in the murder of Sweet's mother [[Beverly Johnson]], which was committed by the Ballas using a green [[Sabre]], although they were aiming for Sweet.

	===Life with Carl Johnson===		===Life with Carl Johnson===
	~~The~~ death ~~of Beverly Johnson~~ brings ~~her son,~~ Carl, back to Los Santos from [[Liberty City in GTA III Era\|Liberty City]]. Carl meets Ryder again shortly after ~~the~~ [[Sweet & Kendl\|funeral]] where they are attacked by a group of Ballas gangsters performing a drive-by shooting, destroying Smoke's [[Perennial\|vehicle]]. Carl, Sweet, Smoke and Ryder then use [[Bicycle\|bicycles]] to flee the area. The four cycle to [[Mulholland Intersection]] where Sweet breaks away from the group, drawing the Ballas vehicle, allowing Carl, Smoke and Ryder to escape. The three are briefly followed again by a Ballas car, although the Ballas do not aim their guns at Smoke and Ryder due to their alliance, a fact missed by the Johnson brothers. Smoke also refuses to shoot at a Ballas car performing a [[Drive-Thru\|drive-by shooting]], claiming he did not wish to waste the food they had just ordered, although Ryder does start shooting the Ballas.

	Ryder continues his life as normal with the Grove Street Families, often being seen with Sweet and Carl. He begins to hire Carl to do various tasks, the first being to drive to [[The Well Stacked Pizza Co.]] fast food restaurant in [[Idlewood]], where [[Ryder (mission)\|Ryder attempted to rob the store]] but was thwarted by the manager, using a [[shotgun]] in self-defense. Ryder later assists Carl to [[Cleaning the Hood\|kill a drug dealer]] and then a number of Ballas gangsters who were associated with the dealer in a home in Idlewood. Ryder also hires Carl to help him [[Home Invasion\|steal weapons]] from the home of [[Colonel Fuhrberger]] in [[East Beach]], [[Catalyst\|steal a weapons shipment]] from a [[Brown Streak Railroad\|train]] coming from [[Las Venturas]] and to [[Robbing Uncle Sam\|steal weapons]] from the [[National Guard Depot]] in [[Ocean Docks]].

	Ryder later accompanies Carl, Sweet and Smoke to the [[Cluckin' Bell]] fast food restaurant in [[Willowfield]], where they see a group Ballas attempt a drive-by shooting. The four survive and destroy the Ballas car. Ryder is again seen when the four [[Nines and AKs\|discuss the gangs weapons]] and later performs a number of drive-by shootings with the three in [[East Los Santos in GTA III Era\|East Los Santos]] and [[Jefferson, Los Santos\|Jefferson]]. He also attended a [[House Party\|party]] thrown by [[OG Loc]] in Grove Street.

	Sweet later arranges a [[Reuniting the Families\|meeting]] at the [[Jefferson Motel]] between the various sub-sects of the Grove Street Families, in an attempt to bring the factions back together to fight the Ballas. Ryder, upon arriving with Sweet, Carl and Smoke, criticizes the non-Grove Street gangsters, which Carl and Sweet do not realize is an attack on the gang rather than the sub-sects. Sweet enters the motel on his own and, when the [[LSPD in GTA III Era\|Los Santos Police Department]] ambush the meeting, Ryder and Smoke flee the scene in Sweet's [[Greenwood]]. The two, however, later re-appear at the side of the motel and drive away from the pursuing police, driving the car through a [[Sprunk]] billboard. The car explodes upon landing on the road below while the four, who had bailed out of the car, decide to go back home on their own.
