Elmo Wuhtahvit is played by Wade/LordMinion777.

## Background

> "*I just wanna be the boss!*"
>
>

Elmo used to live on Sesame Street before moving to Los Santos. He aspires to become the boss, in order to make up for years lost of being underpaid while living and working on Sesame Street.

Elmo has an apparent disdain for boxes, where after shooting each episode, his creators would store him in a box for hours upon end. Through a combination of dread and despair of being trapped in a box and, perhaps, the traumatic experience from the years of being controlled by others, Elmo sought revenge against them and fled after some unfortunate events took place on Sesame Street.

## List of Major Events

#### Post-Sesame Street Arc

Elmo later leaves with Damian to go to Grove Street, where Elmo gets severely injured by several gunshots and dog bites. From there, they drive to the Vanilla Unicorn, believing there are cookies, but leave empty handed. They stop by the Los Santos Police Department in Mission Row, asking people and police officers nearby for guns, permission to adopt their cars or to be his hostage, for help with robbing banks, for money, and how to become the boss. Impatient with the fact he needed a job, he hears from Damian that he can get rich quickly by gambling at the casino. They then head over to the casino, with Damian further enabling Elmo's gambling habit, in order to make enough money to buy guns, drugs, and cookies. After a surprising winning streak at blackjack, Chase Doe, a priest gave Elmo some Holy Water in a small bottle, stating it was "special water" in order to exorcise him. This results with Damian and Rory Winters rushing Elmo to Pillbox Medical Center. While there, doctors, EMS, and the police learn about Elmo's previous actions on Sesame Street, where he apparently tried to assassinate Big Bird with a shiv.
 **7/2/2021** | Elmo adopts a new car from PDM's parking lot and takes Jessey Lurky, his first willing hostage, on a joy ride around the city. He attempts to rob an ATM at the Pacific Standard Public Deposit Bank. Rather than stealing money, Jessey teaches Elmo how to use the ATM to withdraw money from his banking account. After withdrawing some cash, they drive over to AmmuNation, where Elmo buys a crowbar with the intent of robbing a convenience store. While searching for a store they can rob, an LSPD officer checks up on them. After Elmo explains what he was planning to do, and that Jessey was his hostage, a police chase ensues. Elmo drives around recklessly and ended up flipping the vehicle on its roof. He is promptly taken into custody.
Elmo was charged with evading a police officer, kidnapping, and a $14,500 fine he was unable to pay in full. He was then transported to Bolingbroke Penitentiary and served a 5 month sentence. Upon being released from prison, Elmo adopted another car that wasparked in the prison’s parking lot, and drove down to the casino, with the intent to steal money to help get him out of debt. With no one willing to help him, he returns to PDM telling others that he is in debt. McKenzie Williams, in an effort to save Elmo, uses a flashlight to knock him out cold. He ends the day, once more, crying himself to sleep in the PDM breakroom.

#### Redemption? Arc

While being searched and questioned by officers, one of the officers accidentally punches Elmo to the ground. The officers find some drugs on him, but return it to his possession. V introduces Elmo to alcohol and various drugs, including cocaine she tells Elmo is "sugar", which makes him feel like he's "THE BOSS", as he runs around, mellows out, and later faints. V offers to provide as much as Elmo needs, in order to help calm him down. Elmo soon meets Mike Jones from Tequi-La-Tony's, where he explains that in order for Elmo to be the boss, he'll need to work his way up, starting as either a bartender or on security. Mike decides that Elmo should work on security, assigning him with the role similar to that of a bounder, where he stops fights, but from inside the establishment. Elmo takes this literally and asks every person if they're fighting while offering to give guests various drugs he's received from others. Elmo meets Grandpa, where he encourages Elmo to sing to the guests present, and sings a song with lyrics containing how he becomes the boss. After the song concludes, Grandpa attempts to crowd surf, but Elmo considers this as fighting and carries him outside. Several discuss with Elmo to find out why he wants to be "the boss", and encourages him to one day become mayor of Los Santos, to be the "big boss". This appeals to Elmo to potentially get rid of boxes in the city and give out free "sugar" to citizens.
 **8/22/2021** | After a long slumber, Elmo wakes up in Tequi-La-Tony's DJ booth and walks to the parking lot behind the establishment. While there, he consumes "sugar" and various other substances, and attempts to adopt cars from locals. He runs into a man, asks if he can take his car or become his hostage, but is immediately refused. While chasing after him, Elmo runs into two police officers who begin questioning him, then as they begin to call for backup and figure out what to do, he flees. Hearing police sirens, he hides in the nearby Vinewood Hills area and contacts V, letting her know he wants to do some crime in order to "be a better boss". V mentions seeing something on Twitter and offers to be a hostage if needed, and arrange to meet up. Zeb and V arrive in Zeb's car, Zeb refuses to give Elmo his car, and V gives him cigarettes. Elmo mentions wants to rob a bank, and V mentions someone named Cerberus she saw on Twitter wanting to do crime. Outside Pillbox, Zeb and V provide him with various substances they call "severe sugar" and he consumes it. Later, he manages to adopt a new car, the car starts beeping, and learns how to calm the car down from V, by "shushing" it. After showing off his new car in front of Pillbox Hospital, Cerberus lets V know he'll meet Elmo outside of Matlock's office.
Following introductions, a gun "magically appears" in his pockets, and he is quickly initiated into Cerberus' group. They make plans to take a hostage and participate in a jewelry store heist. They stage their getaway vehicles at the Alta Construction Site, then search for an "involuntary" hostage. The group run into Damian, now a detective with the LSPD, asking if they're going to a costume party. They mention it's a house party, extending an invitation to Damian if he wanted to come, and promised to let him know where it's located then drive away. They find a hostage outside the Burger Shot and Elmo watches over the hostage. Before arriving at the jewelry store, Elmo adopts the nickname "Shmelmo" and a Chicago-style gangster accent. Outside of the jewelry store, they realized they've been tailed by Damian, and break into the store.
Elmo holds the hostage at gunpoint while Cerberus negotiated with Damian, making demands for no usage of spike strips, delivery of a donut, and only probationary police officers in Crown Victorias for the soon-to-be car chase. As negotiations continue, Cerberus changes the circumstances the heist as a criminal "training exercise" and a "reality TV show". Upon hearing the donuts will take a few minutes, and are being made fresh, they make their escape to the construction site, leaving their hostage behind and thanking her for her cooperation. Elmo is tazed as he attempts to get on the back of a motorcycle, has all of his weapons and "sugar" removed, and is detained.
On the way to Mission Row Police Department, Elmo demands a "do-over" and pleads he's only a trainee involved in a robbery training exercise. Elmo is charged with one count each of armed robbery, kidnapping, evading a peace officer, and possession of a controlled substance and a 40 month sentence to Bolingbroke Penitentiary. Before being transferred, the officers warn Elmo about The Cannibal at Bolingbroke, to steer clear of The Cannibal, and to call 911 if he needs help.
After being released from Bolingbroke, Elmo adopts a car in the parking lot, contacts V that he got abandoned by Cerberus' group, is severely in debt again, and needs to start all over again. He drives over the the PDM, stops next to a car asking the two occupants if they were his friends and they speed off. He also sees and briefly meets the same hostage they involuntarily kidnapped, walking down the street near the PDM. Elmo meets Betty, who was new to the city, recently got her car stolen from her, and invites her to drive around in his car. He learns she tried to rob a gas station, wasn't successful, arrested, the police took all the money she had away, and has a gun on her. She becomes Elmo's second friend, exchange phone numbers and a cigarette, and decide to work together in future criminal acts. They both meet V at the AmmuNation, where he gets a crowbar and gun for his self-defense, and then while at the PDM, V gifts him a red Declasse Asea sedan. He also becomes friends with Harmony Andrews, and briefly meets Deckard Bane, who states they are not friends and soon part ways. Elmo ends the day sleeping inside the PDM.
