Summary
Trevor Philips is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series, appearing as one of the three protagonists, along with Michael De Santa and Franklin Clinton, in Grand Theft Auto V.
Trevor is a career criminal and former bank robber with a complicated past, who later founded his own company, Trevor Philips Enterprises, operating with drug dealing and weapon smuggling in Blaine County. He is friends with Ron Jakowski and Wade Hebert, who work for his company, as well as the oldest and best friend of Michael, whom he believed to be dead for almost a decade after he faked his death to retire from the criminal life. Trevor is known to have a generally reckless and very aggressive behaviour, but he is also very loyal and deeply respects all those close to him. Trevor's story focuses on how his actions have consequences on both himself and his friends, and him coming to terms with Michael's past actions. Trevor later also befriends Franklin, becoming somewhat of a mentor figure to him.

Capable of knocking down people with a single punch, can one-shot armored police officers with a blow to the stomach. All the protagonists can keep hitting cars and even helicopters to the point where they suffer from severe deformation and mechanical damage and can also kick them hard enough to shake them. Can shatter wooden doors and fences. Can fend off cougars, rottweilers and can easily beat them and cattle to death with his bare hands, including tiger sharks and killer whales if one can keep up with them. Can easily shatter bullet-resistant windshields with a few kicks and sometimes with a single stomp. He can send people flying several meters with his strikes and trade blows with those capable of harming him. All the protagonists are capable of one-shotting each other in sheer anger), higher with melee weapons, firearms, and heavy weapons (Can quickly kill armored humans in one shot and rapidly blow up cars and trucks with ease. Can cause a tank to explode with a few shots. Capable of quickly destroying reinforced bank saves and blowing up heavily-armored cars and even construction equipment, as seen in the many heists he, Franklin, and Michael took), higher with Red Mist (Strengthens both his armed and unarmed capabilities)
Speed: Peak Human with Subsonic+ combat speed and reactions (Can dodge RPG-7 fire at close range just by side-stepping, and RPG missiles can hit Mach 0.9. Can also avoid fast-moving oncoming traffic only by rolling. Can also perform extremely complex maneuvers in any aircraft at any given time and even outmaneuver highly-advanced homing missiles), higher with Red Mist (While it isn't on par with Michael and Franklin's abilities, Trevor's Red Mist nonetheless increases Trevor's perception to some extent). Subsonic with most vehicles and helicopters. Subsonic+ to Supersonic with most planes. Subsonic+ to Supersonic+ attack speed with firearms. Supersonic attack speed with Homing Launcher (The Homing Launcher in GTA 5 is based on a SA-7 Grail rocket launcher, whose missiles can easily hit 430-500 m/s)

Striking Strength: Wall level (Physically the strongest among the protagonist trio), higher with Red Mist
Durability: Wall level (He was beaten up savagely, and he was still able to fight. Can withstand collisions with cars and trucks going at high speed, while possibly being launched against walls after the impact. He can also survive being run over by 18-wheelers and being shot out of reinforced windshields at high speeds so long as collision with anything other than the road is avoided and can take a few rounds from the Heavy Sniper and its Mk. II variant before dying. Getting hit by cars also increases the amount of Red Mist he possesses. Even routinely survives other violent car crashes while driving them, smoothly brushing off extreme flips and ramming into walls and whatnot without bracing. Take shotgun blasts and high-caliber rounds that can penetrate thick body armour and easily destroy cars with a few shots to the face at point-blank range without issue. Can withstand being burned for extended periods. Should be able to withstand his own punches. Regularly takes on breathtaking stunts and withstands massive amounts of g-forces while using planes), higher with Standard Body Armour, higher with Red Mist (He is virtually invincible in the game; able to brush off animal maulings, train crashes, jumbo jet crashes, exploding blimps, and missiles from his weapons as if nothing happened to him)
Stamina: Superhuman initially (Could easily defeat hordes of enemies armed with weapons like baseball bats, knives and the like while extremely drunk), Infinite after maxing out the Stamina bar (Doing so nets Trevor infinite sprinting and swimming)
Range: Standard Melee Range normally and with brass knuckles, Extended Melee Range with melee weapons, Hundreds of Meters with most firearms, Several Kilometers with sniper rifles
Standard Equipment: Grenades (He always carries plenty of grenades when roaming the streets). He also steals others' weapons, such as Grenade Launcher, Assault Rifles, Micro-SMG, and Shotgun during Rampage missions. On a planned mission, he usually carries a Sniper Rifle, a pistol, and various other weapons, but otherwise, generally an arsenal of firearms
Intelligence: Above Average (Trevor appears to be highly intelligent. He enrolled at a military academy for four years, has a college degree from it, and is shown to be good at math, as he was able to calculate the worth of four tons of gold off the top of his head faster than someone could use a calculator to find out. He is focused and rational on the jobs at hand, displaying a capability for calculation and planning, even under chaotic situations. He can follow any detailed plans strictly, and also he has proven to have good ideas for grand heists. Trevor has also been shown to have good perception, as he was the only one who figured out that a brick of cocaine Franklin and Lamar were buying was actually drywall)
Weaknesses: Mentally unstable, suicidal, extremely short-tempered, highly impulsive, and addicted to meth (although this is no longer a problem by 2017 as Trevor becomes a lifestyle guru by then). He tends to be very immature and makes bafflingly nave errors, as he, Michael, and Franklin have gotten into serious trouble due to his mistakes, to the point where his poor planning from the Merryweather heist would've made them the most wanted criminals in the country had it not been for Lester returning the "super weapon" Trevor stole. Trevor has irrational fears of clowns. Prone to being blinded by anger and underestimating his opponents, preferring to try intimidating them at first. Among the many types of people he despises, hipsters, misogynists, and racists are at the top of his list. He has a soft spot for women, especially the elderly, and will lash out violently if they are insulted, including his mother, whom he adores the most. Trevor loves Michael's family as if they were his own and would do anything to keep them safe. The special ability only lasts for 30 seconds at most and can only be used on foot. During this time, explosions can push him back, making him vulnerable for a while and limiting how long he can use his unique ability.
