Salvatore Leone

Salvatore "Sal" Leone is the Don of the Leone family.

He is Toni's main employer and gives Toni the most missions in the game.

In 1998, Salvatore Leone is leading the Leone family in an ongoing war for Mafia dominance against the Forelli family and the Sindacco family.

Paranoid and violent, Salvatore trusts very few people, which may be attributed to Carl Johnson's betrayal in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, which led to Salvatore's casino being robbed of millions of dollars, eventually, his paranoia leads him to his assassination.

Salvatore has many problems in 1998: On top of all of this, the smaller gangs of the city; Yardies, Diablos, Triads and Yakuzas have stepped up and have begun fightinga striking union which is blocking the port pass, which brings Portland Island to isolation from rest of Liberty City (Callahan Bridge is still under construction), which brings him to lose drug shipments, a mayor which stopped cooperating with him and now working with the Forreli's, and even the Sicilian Mafia, who have seemingly arrived to calm the Three Families down, but have really come to take over Liberty City for themselves. for control of the Leone's turf (most Leone turf in the game belongs to other gangs in GTA III).

Through all of this, Salvatore is able to trust Toni, who does anything the Don asks.

Salvatore eventually decides to "make" Toni, and even appoint him as his Caporegime (a position that Toni still has in GTA III).

Not everything goes the way the Leone family would wish, however.

The Mayor of Liberty City, Roger C. Hole, is on the payroll of the Forelli family, and is making life difficult for Salvatore.

After Toni assassinates the mayor in Belleville Park during the Mayor's morning jog, Salvatore knows of a friend who the people like and has the potential to be elected as the new Mayor, namely Donald Love.

With Donald Love in office, the Leone family can control the city.

However, the public learns of Love's connection with the Leone family, so he loses the election to Miles O'Donovan (who is mayor in GTA III).

The Gang War of 1998 comes to a peak when Salvatore is sentenced to prison.

He blames the Sindaccos and Forelli Families of snitching to the FBI the information about his business.

He demands that Don Paulie Sindacco be killed.

When Toni assassinates him for Salvatore, the Leone family have gained much power in the city, now with weakened Forelli's.

Salvatore is released on bail, and is optimistic that the charges on him will be dropped by Mayor O'Donovan.

Massimo Torini - the Caporegime of the Sicilian Mafia that is intending to take over - kidnaps the Mayor to stop this, but Salvatore and Toni kill Torini and rescue O'Donovan.

Salvatore tells O'Donovan that since they saved his life, he owes the Leone family.

O'Donovan agrees, and with the mayor's office in their hands, the Leone family become the main Mafia family in Liberty City.

Salvatore never fully trusts most people, and believes that he should betray others before they have the chance to betray him, even if they have no intention of doing so.

This may be due to Carl Johnson's betrayal of him in GTA San Andreas.

His paranoia persists in Grand Theft Auto III, which leads to his betrayal and attempted assassination of Claude, who survives and kills Salvatore in return.
