Ashley Butler

Background

Ashley "Ash" Butler grew up in Acter, Alderney, where she knew many members of The Lost MC's Alderney chapter from childhood, including Johnny Klebitz. She became Johnny's girlfriend and developed addictions to cocaine and crystal meth, which led to infidelity and their breakup. In The Lost and Damned, her drug debts and her affair with Ray Boccino drag Johnny into trouble repeatedly. One of those debts led to the kidnapping of Roman Bellic. She is voiced by Traci Godfrey.

Events of Grand Theft Auto V

Sometime between 2008 and 2013, Ashley moved to Blaine County with Johnny, Terry Thorpe, Clay Simons and other Lost members. There the gang turned to drugs and arms trading. She and Johnny reunited, and both were now hooked on meth. The gang's uneasy alliance with Trevor Philips was strained by Trevor's ongoing affair with Ashley.

In *Mr. Philips*, Johnny confronts Trevor about her. Trevor, newly aware that Michael De Santa is alive, kills Johnny in front of Ashley, Ron Jakowski and Wade Hebert, leaving her to grieve over the body. The player may choose to kill her too. If she is spared, a Weazel News report later says she died at a heroin party in a Paleto Bay condo with four older local men, found after neighbors complained of the smell.

Trivia

• Her look changes a lot between games: black hair and brown eyes in Liberty City, then red hair, blue eyes and a gaunter face in GTA V.
• Ron Jakowski mentions her in the GTA Online mission *Romance Isn't Dead*.
