Story[edit | edit source]
Niko Bellic is an Eastern European immigrant in his early-thirties, who has come to Liberty City to pursue the "American Dream". Niko was persuaded to move to Liberty City by his cousin Roman, who claimed in multiple e-mails to Niko that he was living a fabulous life, with two women, four hot tubs and fifteen sports cars; but he was in fact telling lies to hide his own failures.
Roman is the only person Niko knows in Liberty City to begin with, and is one of his major connections in the first part of the game. Niko is a tough character, whereas Roman is friendlier. Roman, however, is heavily in debt and a lot of people are after him. In desperate need of help, Roman deceived Niko to move to Liberty City. However, most of the time they end up arguing over various issues. It is later revealed that Niko and Roman have been avoiding each other due to unknown problems at home.
