## Fact sheet

- Role: Protagonist
- Affiliation: Brian Heder's crew
- Based in: Leonida Keys
- First seen: Trailer 2 (May 2025)

Jason is one half of the duo the story follows. Rockstar's profile paints him as someone raised around small-time criminals who tried the Army as a way out and drifted back to what he knew: running errands for drug smugglers in the Keys.

He lives rent-free in a property owned by [Brian Heder](/en/characters/brian-heder/) in exchange for help with local shakedowns, and his friend [Cal Hampton](/en/characters/cal-hampton/) is part of the same circle. Meeting [Lucia](/en/characters/lucia-caminos/) is framed as the turning point of his story.

## What is confirmed

[GTA 6 has two protagonists, Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos.](https://thecity.gg/en/claims/protagonists/) (Confirmed)

He first appeared unnamed in Trailer 1; the name and biography arrived with Trailer 2.
