    Grand Theft Auto VI

    Brian Heder is a seasoned drug runner and boat yard owner in the Leonida Keys, featured in Grand Theft Auto VI.

    History

    Background

    Brian Heder hails from the golden age of drug smuggling in the Keys, a region known for its proximity to lucrative trafficking routes. Over the years, he has built a reputation as a classic drug runner, operating out of his boat yard and maintaining a hands-off approach as he lets others handle the day-to-day dirty work. His longevity in the business is notable, and he is currently married to his third wife, Lori.

His attitude is characterized by a sense of nostalgia for the "golden age" of smuggling and a practical, no-nonsense approach to criminal enterprise.

    Brian is likely respected (and perhaps feared) by peers and subordinates for his longevity and savvy in the underworld.
