I wanna lay my cards on the table. I don't give two f***s about who your family is or how many ninjas you got up your sleeve. Am I making myself clear?
~ Avery Duggan to Tao Cheng.

Avery Duggan is a major antagonist in Grand Theft Auto Online, serving as the main antagonist of The Diamond Casino & Resort, the overarching antagonist of The Diamond Casino Heist and a minor antagonist in The Criminal Enterprises.

It is unknown who voiced Avery Duggan, as the voice actor is never credited or mentioned.

Biography[]

Background[]

Avery comes from a corrupt family of Texas petrochemical magnates who want to buy The Diamond Casino & Resort, but first wants to destroy it, because it will significantly reduce the value of the property and allow him to buy everything at the lowest prices.

He is a wealthy businessman who helped the casino owners pay off their debt during construction because they fought financially.

He has two nephews, Thornton and Mason Duggan, with the former seemingly being his immediate successor to a family business. They both try to get along, because Thornton is often terrified by his uncle's uncompromising scale.

In 2019, Avery Duggan and his colleagues began to trouble the newly opened Diamond Casino & Resort in Los Santos, seeking a hostile takeover of the company. The new casino manager, Agatha Baker, as well as the casino owner, Tao Cheng thwart his attempts to force them into bankruptcy.

Events of The Diamond Casino & Resort[]

In 2019, Avery Duggan and his associates began causing trouble for the newly opened Diamond Casino & Resort in Los Santos, seeking a hostile takeover of the business. The protagonist is contacted by both the casino's new manager, Agatha Baker, and the casino's owner, Tao Cheng, for help in attempting to make peace with Avery and thwart his attempts to force them into bankruptcy.

In the mission Casino - House Keeping, Avery pays several thugs to assault casino patrons and vandalize casino property, which in turn hurts business. The Diamond's Head of Security, Vincent, asks the protagonist to help put a stop to this, and after doing so, they earn a ton of gratitude from Ms. Baker.

In the mission Casino - Strong Arm Tactics, Tao agrees to meet with Avery and his nephew Thornton, but is so high on testosterone when he gets there that the talks quickly go sour. Having lost his patience, Avery orders his henchmen to kill Tao, the protagonist, and Tao Cheng's Translator, but the three escape and make a getaway to the Pacific Bluffs Country Club to plan their next move.

Tao, now furious, decides to hire the protagonist to foil Avery's plans by any means necessary. In the mission Casino - Play to Win, the protagonist destroys most of Avery's assets in the oil and gas industries. This prompts him to retaliate in the mission Casino - Bad Beat, when his henchmen show up to the casino armed to the teeth and with attack helicopters. Thornton Duggan falls out with his uncle at this point and arrives at the casino shortly before Avery's mercenaries to warn everyone of the impending attack. After a grisly struggle, the attack is repelled by the protagonist.

The bad news doesn't stop there. Tao's uncle in Hong Kong contacts Ms. Baker and tells her to sell the casino immediately because there has been too much "drama" surrounding it. Because Tao's uncle provided most of the funding to renovate the casino, neither Ms. Baker nor Tao can refuse him. In the last mission Casino - Cashing out, as everyone is preparing to move their belongings and search for new jobs, Thornton suddenly shows up again with an offer. He proposes to to buy it out at full price from the Cheng family which will result in a transfer of ownership, and he'll keep running the place as it is. However, Thornton admits he won't have that amount of money to spend unless somebody kills his uncle, so he would get Avery's inheritance. Avery has rented the La Fuente Blanca ranch just outside the city limits and that's where he's currently holed up. Tao orders the protagonists to kill Avery once and for all. Avery ends up discovering them and is escorted into a Frogger helicopter, backed by numerous aerial escorts, but the protagonists kill him regardless. At the end Thornton becomes the proud new owner of the casino. He wants the casino to remain the way it is (expect for firing Vincent, the head security, as they could handle the security on their own). He then says that he is expecting twice the profit the casino is already making.

Personality[]

Avery is shown to be a man of many faces, he initially tries to be very calm and collective when he first meets Tao but is shown to quickly resort to having his adversaries killed. Avery also shows hints of racism such as when he tells Tao that he doesn’t care about how many ninjas he has at his disposal, even though ninjas originate from Japan and not China despite knowing that Tao is from China and not Japan. His idea of removing competition by forcing them to fold or by hiring goons to wipe them out or speed up the process is shown to be taken to excesses to the point where even his own nephew admitted he was taking things too far.

Trivia[]

  • Avery Duggan is an obvious parody of Avery Carrington, a real estate tycoon who appeared in the Grand Theft Auto games set in the 3D Universe, which preceded the current HD Universe (in which Grand Theft Auto Online is set). Both of them share the same first name and birthplace, they are successful Texan businessmen who resort to act illegally to achieve their goals and both ended up getting killed by a protagonist (Toni Cipriani and the GTA Online Protagonists) under the orders of their protegés (Donald Love and Thornton Duggan). The main difference being Avery Carrington never being the main antagonist whereas Avery Duggan is one.
  • Despite being the third major antagonist introduced in Grand Theft Auto Online, Avery Duggan is much less evil and weaker than Avon Hertz and Cliffford, the main and secondary antagonists of The Doomsday Heist DLC respectively. In addition, Avery only wanted to destroy the Casino and rebuild it in his own image whereas Avon was bent on wiping out all of mankind by inciting a nuclear war, with Clifford going a step further and trying to be worshipped as a god by lesser AI's.
