Playboy X: Difference between revisions

'''Trey Stewart''', known as '''Playboy X''' (born 1983, age 25), is a character in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]. He currently runs the African-American crack cocaine ring, the [[North Holland Hustlers]].

X began his criminal career as a crack dealer in [[Liberty City]], working for [[Dwayne Forge]]. Forge ran the Hustlers at the time, controlling the majority of crack cocaine in northern [[Algonquin]] and [[Bohan]]. When Forge went to prison in 1993, X took over the gang (at the age of 10), and brought it to new heights.

Playboy became one of the premier gangsters in the city, and his success earned him a penthouse in [[North Holland]]. Almost immediately Playboy began to turn away from the "old school" values taught to him by Forge and began the 21st century as a 'gangsta', favouring bling and increased reputation over loyalty. He also sought to expand his horizons, becoming friends with cocaine empress [[Elizabeta Torres]] and monitoring all drug deals in the city. Eventually he was introduced to [[Niko Bellic]] through a heroin deal and the two began a business relationship.

The major move between the two involved pressuring [[Yusuf Amir]], an entrepreneur from Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. Amir was under intense pressure to cooperate with the Mafia, who had shut down his construction site under the guise of a union strike in order to extort funds from him. X believed he could manoeuvre himself into Amir's favour by employing [[Niko Bellic]] to dispatch the mob gunmen besieging the site. Niko cleared out the site in the Playboy X mission "[[Deconstruction for Beginners]]", but Amir was unresponsive. Instead of rewarding X with shares in lucrative construction contracts, he permantently closed down the construction site in memory of those who had died.  

Eventually Dwayne Forge is released from prison and tensions rise between him and X almost immediately. Playboy ignores Forge and attempts to distance himself from his former mentor, leaving Forge feeling bitter, heartbroken and betrayed. Eventually Forge retakes his former base of operations, the Triangle Strip Club, from associates of Playboy's, the [[Trunchez Brothers]]. Playboy is furious and it is clear that the bad blood between the former partners is going to come to a head.

Playboy X drives a unique gold [[Patriot]] that cannot be found anywhere else in the game.
