Biography

Saints Row

Troy along with Julius save Playa.

Troy along with Julius rescue Playa, who is caught up a in a gang turf war between the Vice Kings, Los Carnales and the Westside Rollerz while walking through Saint's Row. After murdering an unnamed Vice Kings gang member, Troy tries to urge Julius that they should get moving, while Julius offers Playa a chance to join the Saints and meet at the Saints Row Church. When Playa arrives at the church, Troy agrees with gang member Johnny Gat that Playa should be canonized, and after Playa is finished battling 3rd Street Saints members he is allowed in. Troy and Playa then go around the Row to clear out the gangs and takes him to a shop for a gun and they wipe out some Vice Kings members, and Troy then introduces Playa to Forgive and Forget, before getting him to drop him off at Freckle Bitch's. Troy along with Playa and Julius head to Harrowgate to wipe out remaining gang lieutenants, and finally reclaim the Saint's Row district. Back at the church when Julius reveals his plans to wipe out the gangs from Stilwater he appoints Troy to look into the Vice Kings but he refuses to Julius' annoyance, until Johnny volunteers to look into them and under the watch of Dex.

Troy still helps out during the takeover of Stilwater. During the wipe out of the Westside Rollerz Troy goes along with Playa in a race against them, taunting the Rollerz racers to put on their nitrous and set off bombs that are rigged in their cars. He also warns Julius when their leader Joseph Price is leading Westside Rollerz to the Row to destroy the Saints.

During the takedown of Los Carnales, Troy goes to look for their main drug plant for Dex and later along with Playa go to hijack the truck and bring it back to the Row. Before doing the job Troy tries to ask Dex why he wants the truck, although Dex refuses to reveal the rest of the plan until Troy and Playa go to get it, and also causes confusion to Dex for his constant questioning. After the death of Los Carnales leader Hector Lopez Troy suggests to Dex that they should kill the Colombian Cartel member Manuel Orejuela although Dex instead opted to talk to him. When Victor Rodriguez attacks the church, Troy, Julius, Dex and Playa protect it and Victor is killed by Playa. When Dex reveals a plan to attack the police department to get hold of the Carnales' seized drugs in order to work with the Columbians, Troy instead suggests to blow a hole in the wall to reduce police casualties, which Dex agrees to.

Troy drowns as sorrows, as Julius is arrested.

During the takedown of the Vice Kings, Troy sends 3rd Street Saints' members after Tanya Winters, unaware that Playa is driving her around, posing as a chauffeur in order to save Johnny, although he ends up losing them and saves her thanks to Julius warning him.

When Troy questions him angrily about the decision, Julius assures him the Saints are now finished..

Trivia

• In Saints Row, his surname is never mentioned in-game, but the Saints Row promotional website uses the name "Troy Bradshaw". In Saints Row 2, his surname is used in-game.
• Troy is the first member of law enforcement to be a member of the Saints. Others include Kinzie Kensington, SWAT Team homies, and cop followers.

Saints Row

• Although Troy is an undercover cop in Saints Row, his first action in the game is to murder a Vice Kings gang member. When he is a homie in both Saints Row and Saints Row 2, he does not hesitate to kill police officers, and sometimes brags about the kill after it is done.
• The very first clue that Troy is an undercover cop is the Saints Row manual, which is written from the perspective of an undercover cop in a gang. In the manual, they are called The Carnales, with the Los scribbled out - Troy always refers to The Carnales as "The Los Carnales". The newspaper article in the manual is labeled the "Trojan Horse", Troy's name is the same as the city the Horse entered in the myth.
• In several missions, there are hints indicating Troy is an undercover cop. Troy says in a Westside Rollerz mission in reference to Lin, "You roll with someone long enough, and soon you start thinking like 'em." There is also a hint during a plan in the second Carnales mission. While pointing on a map, Troy asks, "What if we came from here and here?" Dex responds, "No, cops try that shit all the time and it never works." He knows a lot about the abandoned police station. When getting the drugs back to The Carnales, Dex has a plan which involves taking out the police station, Troy refuses and suggests blowing a hole into the evidence room instead, lowering the cop body count.
• Another clue that shows Troy as an undercover cop, in Saints Row, is that he asks too many questions, members of the Saints also remark that he does. Dex also notices that in some cutscenes. This is a reference to real life cops asking too many questions.
• In Saints Row, Troy's appearance may pay homage to many characters: his appearance is similar to Paul Walker's character Brian O'Conner in The Fast and the Furious, from being an undercover cop down to hairstyle and facial hair; he is also similar to Leonardo DiCaprio's character William "Billy" Costigan Jr. in The Departed for his look and the fact he is undercover in a gang; Troy also bears a passing resemblance to actor Tim Roth, who is best known for playing Mr. Orange in Reservoir Dogs, who is another undercover cop and Jake Hoyt from Training Day.
• In Saints Row, he almost always has a cigarette, and once lights it off the burning body of Victor Rodriguez in the church. He does not smoke as often in Saints Row 2.
• Despite Troy staying out of the conflict with the Vice Kings, he murders a Vice Kings member during The Streets of Stilwater, and one of his groups attempts to kill Tanya Winters while Playa poses as her driver.^{[Reference needed]}

Saints Row 2

Two men debate about Troy still being a criminal.

• Troy's badge in Saints Row 2 says "Johnson" instead of "Bradshaw", despite his surname already being stated as Bradshaw on the Saints Row website in 2006.
• In The Anna Show cutscene, there is a clip of two men debating over Troy being a crook. This report is titled "Gangster Chief of Police". One of the men states Troy is a hero for putting the Saints behind bars and was only undercover, but the other man states that he was in the Saints a long time, and that three gangs had already taken their place. This report is displayed on computer screens in Saints Row: The Third.
• Playa occasionally says "I should drop by Troy's office some time, say hi" in a casual voice when idle, which is a hint about the bonus mission, Revelation.
• Unlike other homies, he never Sprints but just jogs like other police officers in the game.
• When Idle in Saints Row 2 with Troy as a homie, Troy may say "Just because you helped clean up the gangs, that doesn't mean we're best friends again." However, after fighting, he might also say "once a Saint, always a Saint".
• There is a model in a cabinet in the corner of Troy's office at the Police Headquarters, depicting a police officer brutally murdering a thief and offering the stolen piece of jewelry back to the victim, who stares at the body in horror.
• In Saints Row 2, Troy looks quite different from how he looked in Saints Row.
• Troy is quite corrupt. He spent a lot of money on keeping a mass murderer alive, he attacks and kills other police officers as a homie and is actively covering up the illegal activities the Saints are involved with. In Saints Row: The Third, it is revealed that Troy keeps the Saints out of prison.
• In Saints Row 2, he wears a cop medium-blue tie, whilst other cops wear a cop dark-blue tie.

Saints Row: The Third

• By Saints Row: The Third and beyond, Troy is one of the few earliest members of the Saints to still be alive.
• During the heist at Stilwater 1st National Bank, members of SWAT say "Troy can't bail you out of this one!".. It would then be the last mention of him in the entire game.
  • Despite The Syndicate paying off the Stilwater Police Department more than the Saints, Troy doesn't inform them in advance, as he is presumable unaware of the Syndicate's presence in Stilwater.

Saints Row IV

• There is a picture of Troy in the Church during Benjamin King's simulation alongside Julius, Dex, Lin, Johnny Gat and Alderman Hughes. There are images of Troy on monitors in the Virtual Steelport such as Kinzie's Warehouse, which shows him and Julius helping Playa during The Streets of Stilwater and a close up of Troy from the mission Canonized.
• Troy is indirectly mentioned by Johnny Gat in a conversation between him and a virtual Julius Little in which Johnny listed Julius' faults, one of them letting an undercover cop into the Saints.
