=Personality=

Robhas a strong friendship with Johnny Gat, having known him the longest of any of the Saints since his initiation into the gang. Rob displays exceptional strength and durability throughout the series. During the conclusion of Saints Row he was caught in a point blank Rob and only suffered minor burns, though his coma lasted five years. Neither Mayor Hughes nor his men survived.[reference?] In the trailer for Saints Row Rob said his life changed after meeting Julius, desiring more and more power and money. While typically Rob reserves the bulk of their wrath for rival gang members or other foes, they still display a comical disregard for human life, not unlike most inhabitants of the Saints Row universe Rob does have a few heroic qualities despite his sadistic nature, such as going to extreme lengths for friends, leading by example and feeling regret for several actions such the burning of Shivington or if they allow Shaundi and Viola to die during the climax of Saints Row: the Third.

Rob kills their mentor Julius in cold blood. The former leader of the Saints tries to defend his actions and claims that Rob Boss too power-hungry, a charge which Rob confirms. However, Julius' motives remain questionable/ The social engineering by Dane Vogel left the original inhabitants of the Saints Row district homeless and destitute, and the betrayal of the Saints saw the majority of them dead or serving prison sentences while Julius lived a comfortable lifestyle. In Rob' eyes, Julius crossed the only line they never had, betraying one's friends.

=Saints Row=

When walking through the district of Saint's Row in the city of Stilwater, Rob Boss ignores a watch seller and walks up to a prostitute, but soon, he is caught up in a small turf war between the city's criminal factions. Despite trying to keep his distance, a Vice Kings gang member attempts to kill him after the violent battle. Julius Little and Troy Bradshaw, from the small-time street gang the 3rd Street Saints, save him from his execution, with Troy killing the small-time hoodlum. Julius invites him to meet the gang at the church in Saint's Row if he is interested, seeing as they need all the help they can get

At the Saints Row Church, Rob Boss is initiated into the gang by surviving a beatdown by Saints members. Julius informs the gang that it is time to take the fight to the three rival gangs: Los Carnales, Westside Rollerz, and the Vice Kings.

Though before Rob Boss gets to do any serious work done, he has to build up the Saint's Rep and showing they mean business, such as causing mayhem, holding-up stores, borrowing money from loan sharks, hijacking vehicles for money, collecting CDs, tagging places, assassinating people just for cash, stealing vehicles so he can take them to a chop shop, holding civilians hostage in their cars for money, killing pimps, stealing their hos, and taking them to a brothel, driving hookers around while avoiding paparazzi, IRS, significant others, and private investigators while the hooker has sex with a client, competing in illegal street races, and protecting drug dealers while they sell their product.

While trying to take the three main gangs out of commission, Rob Boss mainly works with the 4 Saint Lieutenants: Johnny Gat, who's a shoot first ask questions never kinda guy. Dex, who usually likes to plan 3 moves ahead. Lin, who somewhat unhappily uses her feminine side to her advantage. And Troy, who makes up his lack of expertise by his enthusiasm.

During the campaign against the Carnales, Rob takes down Hector and Angelo Lopez. While fighting the Vice Kings, Rob saves Benjamin King from Anthony Green, then helps him overthrow Tanya Winters. In the campaign against the Westside Rollerz, both William Sharp and Joseph Price meet their ends at the hands of Playa.

Rob gets to know Johnny Gat, Dex, Lin and Troy while helping take down the three gangs, and is appointed by Julius as his right hand man. Julius soon thereafter ends up being arrested by the police, and Rob thus becomes the de-facto leader of the gang.

Chief Monroe, a corrupt police chief, orders Rob, Dex and Johnny to do a little "community service" or he will kill Julius. Rob steals a campaign bus with Marshall Winslow inside and parks it on the train tracks.

During Winslow's funeral, Playa kills Monroe. Richard Hughes, Winslow's rival, phoned Rob to meet him on the Yacht. Richard's plan was to redevelop the Saints Row community, and was given the go ahead after the saints made a name for themselves. Rob was about to get killed by Hughes' men, but Julius pressed the remote setting off the explosives he planted, killing Hughes and putting Rob into a coma.

=Saints Row 2=

Five years after being put in a coma, Rob awakes inside a prison hospital. There he meets fellow convict Carlos Mendoza who got himself shanked to meet Playa and helps him escape the prison island. On the way, Carlos informs him that a lot of things have changed while Rob was comatose. Carlos explains that the Saints fell apart without anyone to lead them, and dropped their flags before they were killed, and the chaos allowed for new gangs to take control of the city, as well as the rise of the Ultor Corporation that practically took control of the inefficent and corrupt police force. He advises Rob to lay low for a while.

While having a beer in Tee'N'Ay, Rob watches a news broadcast about Johnny Gat, who is about to be executed for 387 murders as well as the attempted murder of Troy Bradshaw, who became chief of police. After breaking him out of his court appearance, he drops Johnny off at his girlfriend, Aisha's house, where they have a beer and plan on taking back their city once again by first taking over the condemned hotel under a mission house. Three new gangs have taken control: The Brotherhood of Stilwater controlling the south, the Sons of Samedi taking all central Stilwater, and the Ronin having a tight grip up north. Their first move is to get a new hideout. This time, it's an old underground hotel in Old Stilwater beneath an abandoned mission house. After "evicting the current tenants", they get new lieutenants and slowly take back what was once theirs, and defeat the three gangs.

During the conflict with the Ronin, Rob defeats the lieutenant Jyunichi in a sword fight for killing Aisha, helps Johnny Gat to get revenge on Shogo Akuji and leaves Kazuo Akuji to die on a burning boat.

As part of the struggle against The Brotherhood, Rob kills Carlos to put him out of his misery. He murders Matt, as well as Maeroin a final showdown in the Stilwater Arena.

While battling the Sons of Samedi, Rob murders Veteran Child, Mr. Sunshine, and The General.

After taking back the city, conflict ignites between Ultor and the Saints, starting when Rob is ambushed at a nightclub by a Masako Unit, and the lieutenants are kidnapped. After escaping the ambush and rescuing Shaundi and Pierce, they all meet up with Johnny Gat and plan to assault The Pyramid, Ultor's secret facility built underneath and in the perimeter of Mount Claflin. They hope to expose Ultor's rather dastardly plans for the city, and to destroy their weapons and warheads. Rob and Johnny head there, and the assault goes well. Soon, Pierce gives Roba hint that a luxury cruise ship in the middle of the ocean is where the Ultor executives are having a meeting. Playa goes there and kills all the Rob and guards, and shoots down some attack helicopters. This all happens in front of Dane Vogel's eyes, who watches from his top floor office in the Phillips Building.

Vogel holds a press conference outside the Saints Row Church about the incident, and Rob and Johnny plan an assassination. Johnny is spotted by a guard who followed him to the rooftop, and accidentally shoots the sniper rifle in the struggle, which alerts Vogel and his bodyguards. Rob rushes towards Vogel with a pistol, while Johnny takes down any resistance after throwing the guard off the rooftop. Rob jumps onto Vogel's limo, but is shaken off, and he is forced to assault Vogel by hijacking an attack helicopter, taking out the power stations on the Phillips Building, and eventually jumping off the helicopter's fuselage, onto the top floor of the Phillips Building, where he then confronts Dane. Vogel tries to reason with Rob, who responds by shooting him in the mouth, sending him backwards through the top floor window.

After Tobias arrives in his helicopter to pick up Shaundi, Pierce, and Rob, Pierce asks "So...what do we do now?", in which Rob responds "This is our city, we can do whatever the fuck we want to do." and they fly off into the city.

=Saints Row the Third=

Some years after the events in Saints Row 2, the 3rd Street Saints became a household name in Stilwater and partnered up with the Ultor Corporation. Rob's ascent to fame is first seen in Saints Row 2; the activities Fuzz, Trail Blazing and Crowd Control introduce him to entertainment industry figures, and his notoriety as a gang leader is enough that Stilwater pedestrians quickly recognize him and commented on his activities.

After many years on the top Rob, Johnny Gat, Shaundi, and an actor named Josh Birk rob the Stilwater 1st National Bank as a publicity stunt. The robbery goes wrong and they are arrested by SWAT.

Unbeknownst to them, the bank is owned by Phillipe Loren, the leader of Morningstar and the chairman of The Syndicate, so the Saints are taken to meet Loren onboard his Gawalek A36 jet over Steelport. After being given a chance to give a share of their profits to the Syndicate, they refuse and break free. Johnny takes control of the plane and fights off Phillipe, being killed in the process, allowing Shaundi and Rob time to jump out the plane. After fighting more members of the Morningstar in the air, they land in Steelport where Phillipe has Matt Miller, leader of the Deckers, hack into the Saints' accounts and empty them.

Rob and Shaundi raid the local Guard Armory and call Pierce to bring the Saints to Steelport. Rob and Pierce drive to get acquainted with the Steelport, and end up in a battle with a group of Morningstar members and their Brute. Rob later parachutes into a Morningstar penthouse to take it over and hurt the Syndicate, then chases a fleeing gang member with an Oppressor in order to disarm a bomb. After taking the Penthouse, Playa and Pierce begin buying property belonging to the Morningstar using deeds recovered from their lockbox.

After multiple encounters with the Morningstar, the Saints strike at their headquarters, the Syndicate Tower, and Phillipe is indirectly killed by Playa. During this they meet a test subject named Oleg whom the Syndicate were using to clone brutes, and he joins them to fight the Syndicate.

Rob and his crew return to Stilwater to bury Johnny, but are attacked by Luchadores working for Killbane, who destroy a memorial bridge the Saints are getting chased across, causing Rob, Shaundi, Pierce and Oleg to end up in the river. Oleg reveals the Saints are not ready to fight the Syndicate and he knows people that can help. When Rob arrives back in Steelport, along with Pierce and Shaundi he finds ex-FBI agent Kinzie Kensington who is being held by the Deckers, Zimos who was being held at Safeword in the "Pony Barn" and helping ex-Luchador member Angel De LaMuerte from Killbane's Luchadores

After recruiting the three new lieutenants, Rib gives the 3rd Street Saints a speech that the Syndicate will have to answer for what they have done. At the same time, Killbane takes over the Syndicate.

Rob is called to the Saints HQ by Shaundi when Pierce throws a party, which angers her due to Johnny's recent death and she voices displeasure, although Rob agrees with Pierce that they can't mourn Gat forever. During the party its revealed that the strippers are working for the Morningstar and try to kill the Saints, but Playa manages to fight them off and kill them. After this Rob goes to see Zimos at his crib and says its time to take down the Morningstar. Rob poses as a sex slave to be auctioned off at Safeword and once the Saints and Zimos get in, they disable the security to allow more Saints to takeover and wipe out the remaining Morningstar, and then claim Safeword as their own. After getting a tip off from Viola DeWynter, who was Loren's right hand, Playa and Zimos invade a Morningstar cargo ship to collect prostitutes being smuggled in. After getting the prostitutes Rob receives a phone call from Matt Miller offering to buy back the prostitutes, and the player has a choice to either keep them or bring them to the brothel at Saints HQ.

Rob and Oleg go to meet Viola at the park who offers to help the Saints in order to make Killbane suffer, but the meeting is interrupted by STAG who have been sent to take down the gangs of Steelport. Rob escapes back to the Saints HQ while Oleg fights off the STAG who are attacking. Playa begins fighting against STAG and starts by destroying their bases and kidnaps Josh Birk whose character Nyte Blayde is being used as a mascot for STAG. Playa attracts STAG to the Saints HQ for a massive fight, and at the end is approached by Cyrus Temple the leader of STAG who asks for them to return STAG and they will keep the attention off the Saints for the while. Whatever choice ROb makes, STAG begins destroying the Saints HQ. When Shaundi is captured by Cyrus' second-in-command, Kia to be taken for question, Playa uses Image As Designed to take on the appearance of Cyrus and takes Pierce and Viola as prisoners to the STAG's aircraft carrier the Thermopylae, where they rescue Shaundi and destroy the base. However this increases STAG presence as they declare martial law in Steelport. When Rob hijacks a plane containing new weapons that STAG is flying in, he uses Sonic Boom to try and get into the cockpit but ends up destroying it causing the plane to crash, so escapes in a Tank out the back and fights of attacking F-69 VTOLs attacking. After hijacking a second tank in midair, Rob crashes onto Arapice Island, but falling corpses and debris destroys containers in the Ultor Chemical and Waste Disposal Plant, which releases a green gas that turns the dead corpses into zombies. Rob and Viola go to see the Mayor of Steelport, who turns out to be Burt Reynolds, who asks for the Saints help in dealing with the zombie problem, which Rpb happily accepts. After arriving back on Arapice Island, Rob submerges three containers in the water, and after this is told to destroy a chemical truck by Reynolds, who offers to help the Saints and also SWAT Teams to being on their side as a favour for dealing with the problem, although Oleg phones and states that he can use the chemicals to create their own zombie army to help. Whatever choice is made, Cyrus arrives along with STAG to deal with the remaining zombies.

Rob and Shaundi find out from Kinzie that Killbane has set the Saints up for the attack on the memorial bridge back in Steelport and begins badmouthing the Saints name on air. Rob and Shaundi travel around Steelport to track down where the broadcast is coming from and then chase down Killbane's car in a helicopter, but before Shaundi can take a shot at him the helicopter malfunctions and crashes, causing Killbane to escape. Playa steals a powerful computer from STAG before Matt Miller's Deckers get a hold of it and then a chair from the Deckers in order to go up against them. After this Rob enters into the Decker's usernet and faces off against Matt Miller's avatar and finally takes him down, but spares Matt's life when he offers to hack into a

After the Murderbrawl match and Killbane's downfall, a war spirals out between the STAG and Killbane's Luchadores, so Rob, Pierce and Oleg travel around Steelport to help contain the attacks by killing off STAG and Luchadore members. During this Rob gets a phone call from Angel saying Killbane is attempting to flee Steelport, but then gets another call from Kia that a monument will be blown up, which has fellow Saints in it along with Shaundi, Viola and Burt.

When Rob goes to save Shaundi at the monument, he removes bombs planted around it with Sonic Boom before facing off with Kia who has Shaundi at gunpoint, but manages to kill Kia, saving Shaundi, Viola and Burt, and preventing the Saints being set up as terrorists by Stag.. After leaving the monument, Rob, Pierce and Shaundi are surrounded by photographers, and Cyrus attempts to have Playa arrested but Monica Hughes steps in declaring the Saints as heroes for saving the Monument, allowing them to walk. Cyrus warns Rob he will be back if the Saints slip up once more, and Rob leaves with Shaundi and Pierce after saying " I love you too .".

Rob is then showing leading a group of 3rd Street Saints on Mars, with a mission on going after Killbane in order to save the earth. Rob faces off with Killbane at his lair and defets him, but slips up during a monologue, revealing the scenario to just being a movie for Gangstas in Space, and they go for another take.

Rob and the Saints declared Stilwater and Steelport as an sovereign city-state, however when Rob becomes President. This changes.
