This empathy ability allows them to approach a person and form a bond with him (or her). They can even “ switch” this empathy mode at will. So what about psychopath? The thing is, psychopath does have empathy and they are really good at that. We feel like we can understand that person’s pain and we can share this emotion with them. For example, when we see a person feels painful because of some sort of a sad event, we also sense the similar pain rising within us.
It basically gives a person a sense of understanding other people’s emotion, including pain and sadness. This is also the time we met the final member of the trio: Trevor Phillips – a so-called “ psychopath”.Įmpathy is another innate trait of every single human being. When we got introduced to Trevor, we saw a crazy, lunatic Trevor who found out that Michael still alive. His business involved in arms dealing and selling crystal methamphetamine. We then saw Trevor living in Sandy Shores, working with Ron Jakowski, Wade Hebert, and Chef in a small business called Trevor Phillips Enterprises. As we already knew, Michael faked his death, making Trevor believed that he was death. This led to the beginning of GTA 5 when Michael, Trevor, and other partners conducted a bank heist in North Yankton.
Although they still worked with each other, Trevor gradually wanted to leave Michael out of his business. When Michael fell in love with Amanda, their relationship started to have problem as Michael became… “soft”. After their encounter during a cargo escorting work across the border, they maintained their relationship as criminal partners. But as we all know, his “innocent” life did not last long when he finally met Michael. He did commit crimes but they were just petty crimes. However, he was discharged after his training due to his “mental instability”.Īfter his discharge, he returned to his wanderer life around the border. Prior to their faithful encounter, Trevor joined the air force after realizing he had talent in flying jets. Though we already know Trevor as a crazy criminal, he actually did not fully commit to criminal career until he met Michael. Trevor during the North Yankton heist (Source: Internet) And of course as we know, such a harsh childhood led to his harsh criminal path today. He also abandoned his school early, thus explaining why he lacked basic knowledge and had certain “language” issues. To make things worse, his father abandoned him in a shopping mall and he even burned down that entire mall as a sign of rebellion. While physical abuse was one thing, his mother was also emotionally abusive as she often deemed Trevor as an useless child who didn’t do anything to help his mom. To imagine how hard his life is, here’s what he described his life himself: “ grew up in five states, two countries, fourteen different homes, eight fathers, three care homes, two correctional facilities, one beautiful, damaged flower of a mother”. Trevor Phillips was born in Canada, near the Canada/United States border.
And considering his anger tendency, it’s safe to say his life is much, much tougher than Michael’s. Like Michael, Trevor also had an extremely tough childhood. If you have already known Michael’s childhood, you will see that Trevor also shares similar backstory (and probably that childhood similarity is why Trevor and Michael quickly become friends). And so, this time, let’s try to find out the guy! Birth of Insanity But from our perspective, he is actually more interesting than we may think. Many people would argue that Trevor isn’t the best character in GTA franchise since he is a straight-forward lunatic. And well, in game Trevor is arguably the most insane character, even other characters like Michael “scared” of him. When people describe Trevor, the most common word we often hear is “psychopath”. For those who haven’t played GTA 5 yet, Trevor Phillips is one of the 3 protagonists of Grand Theft Auto 5 besides Michael De Santa and Franklin Clinton.
