It’ll be a while before anyone can get their hands onGrand Theft Auto 6, though that certainly doesn’t mean there’s a shortage of activities to do inGrand Theft Auto Online, especially when it comes to theGTARP servers. Players can essentially become anyone they want, and in the case of some dedicated roleplayers, they take it a step further by donning familiar faces in video game pop culture. In the case of one player, they took to the streets of Los Santos as one of Mario’s signature antagonists, Wario.
In general,Grand Theft Auto OnlineRP servers are serious about players staying in character. It’s among one of the main rules players are taught when first participating in roleplay. While it doesn’t mean that players are limited to Los Santos-based characters, it does mean that players must maintain a certain level of dedication to the role that they’re playing. For Twitch streamer Burn, that meant fully embodying the character of Wario as he would be if he actually existed in Los Santos.

Burn isn’t new tothe TwitchGTARP scene. In the past, he brought a pretty neat rendition of Johnny Silverhand ofCyberpunk 2077into Los Santos. This time, Burn switched gears to portray a hilariously obnoxious Wario. As Mario’s arch-rival, the content creator has been causing all kinds of trouble, assaulting other roleplayers and drawing all kinds of police attention in his signature “kart.”
His dedication to the character is incredible to see, as the streamer even frequently exclaims Wario’s signature “Wah!” phrase. The antics grow even sillier as the video goes on, as Burn delays and antagonizes police all to the tune of power-ups fromMario Kart. Following three days in jail, Burn’s Wario still manages to cause more trouble and even teams up with a Waluigi RPer to fight off police. Not long after this Wario dies, and even so, he somehow gives some hospital RPers a bit of a hassle from beyond the grave.
The whole affair is fun to watch and serves as a wholesome contrast to thesometimes toxic antics ofGTARPers like xQc. Much like these fellow Twitch streamers, Burn doesn’t have any intention of giving other roleplayers an easy time on the streets of Los Santos. However, the fact that he does so under the guise of Wario makes it entertaining, even for the roleplayers he antagonizes. There’s no telling what popular character Burn may take on next, though it’s clear that he’ll knock it out of the park with flying colors.
