Jon Gravelli

Background

Jon Gravelli is the elderly boss of the Gambetti crime family, the most powerful of Liberty City's Mafia families in Grand Theft Auto IV. Old and in poor health, he still commands enormous influence and dislikes the Russians who have grown powerful in the city.

Events of Grand Theft Auto IV

Gravelli takes an interest in Niko late in the story, after Niko's work for other families has made him well known. He gives three missions. In Entourage Niko escorts Bobby Jefferson to City Hall and fights off attackers, in Dining Out he kills Kim Young-Guk in a restaurant, and in Liquidize the Assets he destroys Russian cocaine vans and kills their guards. Gravelli is impressed with Niko and approves of his work against the Russians.

Personality

Gravelli is old-school, measured and cynical about the younger generation of gangsters. He speaks slowly and with authority, and he treats violence as business.

Relationships

• He heads the Gambetti family and sits on the Mafia Commission that Jimmy Pegorino longs to join.

Trivia
