In Bully, Gary starts off as a friendly and helpful character, offering advice to the main protagonist, Jimmy. But things take a dark turn when Gary blames Jimmy for a conflict he orchestrated between different cliques in the school. Gary’s cunning manipulation and calculated attempt to sabotage Jimmy’s reputation make him a character to watch out for, especially for students at Bullworth Academy.

With his iron grip on the city and his cunning nature, even the protagonist, Tommy Vercetti, treads carefully around Diaz. Don’t let his explosive temper fool you; he’s also surprisingly crafty and clever, which is why nobody wants to find themselves on his bad side.

3. Agent Edgar Ross – Red Dead Redemption

Agent Edgar Ross - Red Dead Redemption

Agent Edgar Ross may be a minor antagonist in Red Dead Redemption 2, but it’s his actions in the first game that truly define him as a sneaky and merciless character. Ross relentlessly hunts down the members of the Van Der Linde gang, constantly pushing protagonist John Marston to capture his former comrades. John sacrifices everything to protect his family, only to be viciously betrayed by Ross, who orchestrates his brutal murder. Even years later, with no remorse for his actions, Ross remains cold-blooded and deceitful. If he can scare the members of the notorious Van Der Linde gang, he certainly deserves a spot on this list.

Dutch Van Der Linde, the charismatic leader of the Van Der Linde gang, may be an antagonist in Red Dead Redemption, but it’s his actions in Red Dead Redemption 2 that truly reveal his dangerous nature. Dutch’s ability to manipulate and charm his gang members is unparalleled. He preys on their vulnerabilities and convinces them that he’s their savior. However, when challenged by Arthur, Dutch’s true colors emerge. He betrays his closest allies, Arthur and John, revealing just how disloyal and treacherous he truly is. Dutch’s inclusion on this list serves as a reminder that loyalty isn’t always what it seems.

1. Trevor – Grand Theft Auto 5

Trevor - Grand Theft Auto 5

Out of all the characters in Rockstar games, Trevor takes the crown as the most dangerous. With a troubled past and an unstable psyche, Trevor has no regard for the consequences of his actions. He brutally attacks innocent civilians, insults powerful figures without a second thought, and even parades around in the most outrageous outfits. Trevor’s complete lack of empathy and his apparent death wish make him a truly unpredictable and fearsome character. Even his best friend, Michael, was afraid of him. Trevor’s raw aggression, violence, and recklessness make him the epitome of danger in the Rockstar universe.

Rockstar certainly knows how to create characters that leave a lasting impression. Whether they’re manipulating their friends, running dangerous drug cartels, or simply wreaking havoc, these characters add depth and excitement to Rockstar’s games.
