3. Brucie Kibbutz
Brucie is another character from GTA IV who is a fitness enthusiast, a lifestyle coach and a luxury automotive entrepreneur, something that eventually leads Niko to begin stealing cars for him. Brucie used to be a 'fat loser', which is likely why he now injects himself with testosterone that is taken from Chilean Bull Sharks, which has helped him pump his body up into muscle, but has left him with severe bouts of 'roid rage, which accounts for some of the missions that he gives Niko, including the murders of police co-operators. Brucie is a great character for his complete and utter obsession with fitness and his unpredictable nature. He is very self-centered and impulsive and is the polar opposite of Niko when you first work with him, despite his inability to realise that Niko is not in fact Russian. In The Ballad of Gay Tony, Brucie's relationship with his older brother Mori, who constantly puts him down, is fleshed out. This adds a little backstory as to why Brucie is as arrogant as he is, with him struggling to break out from his brother's shadow, before he eventually breaks Mori's nose and they put their differences behind them. This change in the family dynamic that has made Brucie who he is could highly affect his personality, if he has now broken away from his brother as his own person, perhaps now he can appear in GTA V and embrace who he really is, as well as finally admitting to himself that he is bisexual, which could create a further interesting dynamic between Brucie and the three protagonist's of GTA V if he were to star in the game.
