William "Willy" McTavish is the bassist for the Scottish hair metal band Love Fist. He is one of the few characters that appears in both the 3D Universe and HD Universe, in Grand Theft Auto:Vice City and Grand Theft Auto V.
Background and Events of GTA Vice City
Just like fellow Love Fist band members Dick and Percy, his name is a sex joke from Rockstar as it is a slang term for a penis. Willy is the only member of Love Fist that doesn't wear black gloves. According to Jezz Torrent, Willy wears women's underwear. During Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Willy did not make a physical appearance, although he was present in the mission Publicity Tour and can be heard speaking.
By 1992 either he or Percy had left the band, as seen in the billboard for their album "Clear the Custard" in Los Santos, San Andreas.
Events of GTA V
Willy (Willie in credits) appears physically (outside of cutscenes) for the first time in Grand Theft Auto V, in a Strangers and Freaks mission where Trevor Philips must knock out his gold tooth and bring it to a man named Nigel as a souvenir. While listening to Willy's dialogue with the fan, it appears that he is still touring with Love Fist. Furthermore, his gilet is similarly embroidered with the Love Fist logo on the back. Willy is also killable in this mission, and if Trevor does so, he will say "oops, sorry Love Fist fans".
If Trevor doesn't kill him, he will post a bleet in the Bleeter website after the mission, commenting about Trevor's attack.
