04.11.2019

Carl "CJ" Johnson

Having learned about the murder of his mother, Carl returns home from Liberty City to Los Santos. There he learns another news - the Grove Street Families, the Johnson family gang, which was one of the strongest groups in the city several years ago, has almost completely lost control over the streets. In addition, the police department wants to pin the murder of a police officer on Karl, which he did not commit. The main character will have to go through many trials and adventures in the vast state of San Andreas. Despite persecution from corrupt cops, betrayal of friends, death of loved ones and the insidious intentions of mafia bosses, Karl defends the honor of his family with dignity.

Sean "Sweet" Johnson

The older brother of the main character of the game - Carl Johnson. Sean holds Carl responsible for the death of their younger brother Brian. Sweet is the head of the Grove Street Families gang and is respected by the Grove Street Families. At the same time, he has many enemies in other groups. It is to him that CJ must prove his worth and the right to fight for the honor of the family.

Kendl Johnson

Sister Carla. Kendle constantly quarrels with her older brother Sean and is clearly not happy that Carl left for Liberty City, leaving the family at a difficult time. She is head over heels in love with Caesar Vialpando from an influential Latin group in Los Santos. After the death of her mother, Kendl fell on the shoulders of taking care of the house and brothers.

Melvin "Big Smoke" Harris

An old friend of the Johnson family, one of the most influential figures in the Orange Grove Families. Despite overweight, Smoke often carries out dirty operations that require physical strength and dexterity. Melvin is an independent figure in the gang, so he conducts his own business in San Fierro without the consent of Shawn Johnson.

Lance "Ryder" Wilson

Ryder is Carl's longtime friend and Shawn Johnson's right-hand man. He carries out all the bloody and important assignments in the gang and has a very high authority among the “Roshchinskys”. Together with Ryder, CJ will get into more than one scrape.

Cesar Vialpando

Almost all of Caesar's body is decorated with tattoos. Perhaps this is what helped him win the heart of Candle, Carl Johnson's sister. Caesar is obsessed with cars, he is especially interested in stealing expensive sports cars and extravagant ones. Vialpando is one of the authorities in the Los Santos group Varios Los Aztecas. Having overcome the initial hostility, Caesar and CJ become friends and do a lot of dirty deeds together.

Wu Zi Mu

Like most Asians, Wu is calm and focused. His friends call him simply “Woozie,” but underneath his frivolous nickname he is the ruthless leader of the Mountain Cloud Boys, the group that runs the affairs of San Fierro.

Even complete blindness does not hinder him. Over the years, he managed to adapt to the eternal darkness and seriously develop his other senses. Today Wu Zi Mu is known as one of the best racing drivers and a successful golfer. His goals: to develop the empire of his boss Ran Fa Ly, destroy his opponents from the Vietnamese gang The Da Nang Boys and lead the Red Gecko Tong triad.

Officer Frank Tenpenny

Frank Tenpenny is one of two corrupt Los Santos police officers who are trying in every possible way to ruin Karl's life. He is distinguished by his particular cruelty and disregard for everything except the criminal empire he created. Tenpenny is officially the head of C.R.A.S.H. - Department for Combating Organized Crime. Unofficially, he is engaged in underground business: racketeering, drug trafficking, bribery of officials, violence. Another cop helps him in this - officer Eddie Pulaski.

Officer Eddie Pulaski

Officer Pulaski is the second in command of C.R.A.S.H, and it is he who helps Frank Tenpenny run his shadow business. He hates Karl fiercely, which, however, does not prevent him from collaborating with the “boss”. Their latest operation is the murder of detective Pendelbury, who was trying to bring the criminal couple to clean water. It was this corpse that the corrupt cops “hung” on Carl Johnson.

Minor characters

Officer Jimmy Hernandez

Jimmy is a new employee of the C.R.A.S.H department. He strived to be an honest cop, but Pulaski and Tenpenny also involved him in their dirty deeds. Hernandez disagrees with his bosses' methods, but keeps his mouth shut. At the end of the game this will still count towards him.

Ran Fa Li

He is also "Farley", the head of the Red Gecko Tong, one of the largest triads in San Fierro. Ran Fa Ly's main enemies are the Vietnamese bandits from The Da Nang Boys, who have already managed to destroy one of the triads and are now targeting Red Gecko Tong. However, Farley also has ill-wishers among his allies...

Su Xi Mu

Also known by the nickname "Susie". Another person from the triads, the right hand of Wu Zi Mu. Su Zi Mu runs a bookmaker's office in San Fierro Chinatown. Su's main opponents are the Vietnamese from the gang The Da Nang Boys. Zero, the owner of an electronic toy store, was spotted among the contacts.

Zero

Owner of an electronic toy store in the Garcia district of San Fierro. However, Zero believes that he is not just selling toys, but smaller copies of real vehicles, controlled by remote control.

The Truth

The man's name says it all: a peaceful hippie quietly floating along the river of life. The Truth drives a stupid minivan called The Mothership and is friends with Jethro and Dwayne, both hippies like himself. Unfortunately, Pravda is doing business with Officer Tenpenny, and this, of course, will negatively affect his future fate.

Catalina

Caesar's cousin. Yes, yes, it was against her that we fought in Liberty City! As it turns out during the course of the game, betrayal, deceit, secrecy and thirst for money distinguished Catalina already in her youth. The aspiring bitch settled in a squalid shack in Red County, away from prying eyes. Her yard is a small cemetery. As we already know, Catalina's favorite pastime is organizing robberies.

As the plot progresses, she will involve the main character in her dirty deeds. Despite the boorish attitude that Catalina shows towards Carl, she truly loves him. Alas, a breakup is inevitable. Her next victory on the love front is... do you remember the main character? GTA 3? So, now we finally know his name - Claude. It is with him that Catalina intends to move to Liberty City.

Claude

Talented racing driver, also known as the "tongueless snake" and the main character GTA 3. This nickname is a constant reminder of his muteness. Together with Catalina, Claude intends to move to Liberty, and we already know how their story will end. There is absolutely no need for voice acting for obvious reasons.

Mark "B-Dup" Wayne

B-Dup recently moved to the Glen Park area - the territory of The Ballas gang. According to rumors, Mark has retired from criminal affairs, but in fact continues to be involved in drug trafficking. He often hangs out with Barry “Big Bear” Thorne.

Jeffery “OG Loc” Martin

Young rapper and member of the OGF gang. Jeffrey’s criminal career can hardly be called solid, but he has already been to prison. Once freed, OG Loc recorded a rap album called "Straight from Tha Streetz", and now Jeffrey's thoughts are all about music. Some claim that Martin is the worst rapper in history, others consider him a real discovery in the genre. Unfortunately, competition from Madd Dogg prevents him from becoming a full-fledged star.

Madd Dogg

Madd Dogg is a state legend, one of the best rappers and producers on the West Coast. After the tragic death of his manager, Dogg became depressed and quickly became addicted to alcohol and drugs. His luxurious villa in the hills of Vinewood costs a fortune. Madd Dogg has been linked to the Vagos gang, and was even forced to give up his mansion for drug debts. His most famous albums are “Huslin’ Like Gangstaz”, “Still Madd” and “Forty Dogg”. OJ Lock's main competitor and sworn enemy.

Rosenberg is another character familiar to us from Vice City. Having lost his job as a lawyer, Ken began to look for his old friends, but attempts to reach Tommy Vercetti were unsuccessful, and Ken fell under the influence of Don Salvatore Leone.

Rosenberg is now the manager of Caligula's Palace Casino in Las Venturas. His establishment found itself at the very center of the confrontation between the Leone, Sindacco and Forelli families, fighting for control of the gambling business in the city. Ken remains neutral, but if one side wins, the others will settle scores with him.

Salvatore Leone

Are you saying Leone is dead? Yes, this is true, but do not forget that events GTA: San Andreas takes place in 1992, almost a dozen years before GTA 3. Even then, Don Salvatore was an influential man. His clan is fighting with the Sindacco family for the right to control the Caligula's Palace casino in Las Venturas. Not long ago, the Forelli group also joined the conflict.

Jethro and Dwaine

After Tommy Vercetti bought their boathouse in Vice City, Jethro and Dwayne headed to San Andreas. Jethro became addicted to drugs, and Duane made a living selling hot dogs in San Fierro. Things weren't going well for the friends until C.J. showed up. Our hero offered them a job in one of the garages in the Dougherty area.

Mike Toreno

An undercover CIA agent who heads the Loco syndicate. This organization has nothing to do with protecting workers' rights, but is one of the state's criminal groups.

Jizzy B

Jizzy helps the Loco syndicate do shady business, but is unhappy with his share. In addition, he also has a personal business - the nightlife club Jizzy's Pleasure Domes in San Fierro. Most of his profits come from pimping. Seen in association with T-Bone Mendez, Mike Toreno and other drug traffickers.

T-Bone Mendez

Native to northern Mexico. Mendez does the dirty work for the Loco syndicate. This thug has several corpses to his name, so any conflicts with him can be fatal. T-Bone works primarily with Mike Toreno, but also has his own drug business with Latin gangs in San Fierro, heading up Rifa.

GTA: San Andreas is considered one of the most successful games in the series. The concept here is classic. The character gets into trouble with gangs who want to divide the city, and completes his tasks, improving his reputation among various crime clans. A lot of exciting missions, a large selection of cars with the possibility of tuning them, gang wars with the seizure of territory - this is not the whole list of what made another brainchild of Rockstar Games a truly cult game. But this list would not be complete without including such an important element as the characters of GTA: San Andreas. Many critics and gamers note the well-developed nature of their characters and their organic integration into the storyline. Rockstar created a city in which you really want to live, and each of its significant neighbors has its own unique destiny. But the original game did not stop its development, and over time many mods and additions appeared. GTA: San Andreas - mods - a few more additional pages in the great history of a criminal city in which you will not be bored.

A special feature of the game was the voice acting. All the main characters of GTA: San Andreas were voiced by iconic personalities. These are mainly rap musicians.

Who's in charge in San Andreas?

It is clear that there are plenty of criminal leaders in the game, but the main character is trying to be in no way inferior to them. The central character of the game is called (also abbreviated as CJ), and he, like most of the predecessors of the GTA series, has a lot of problems with the law in the Los Santos metropolis. After many attempts to change his failures with drugs and corruption scandals, the hero leaves his hometown and heads to Liberty City. The character of Karl was voiced by actor Yang My Lai. The prototype of the main character could very likely be the young vocalist of the band Faithless, Maxi Jazz.

Return to San Andreas

Five years later, Karl returns to his native place, and then, in fact, the game GTA San Andreas begins. The passage starts after preliminary communication with the police, to whom Karl remains indebted. Eddie Pulaski and Frank Tenpenny are corrupt cops who promise to keep an eye on him. The gangster atmosphere awaits the main character again.

After a successful first bike ride, Karla meets home, where he immediately learns of the murder charge. The native Grove street awaits new adventures that will now accompany the main character on every corner. CJ will not tolerate mistreatment of his family and therefore decides to return to business. Other important characters from GTA San Andreas will help him.

What new can CJ do?

In addition to fast driving in cars, bicycles and motorcycles, which has always been characteristic of GTA heroes, the main rebel of San Andreas has gained new skills that have not been seen before. Now Karl will be able to boast of the opportunity to swim and jump with a parachute. He will begin to master fashion trends, constantly changing clothes and trying on new haircuts. But most importantly, the game has new system, allowing you to train your character. By riding, shooting and fist fighting these skills will grow. Gym will allow you to throw it off extra pounds and improve strength characteristics.

Some mods complement the already wide capabilities of the main character of GTA: San Andreas. Character textures can also be changed thanks to additions.

Location of the game

San Andreas is a large fictional state through which the main character will move. The action begins in the city of Los Santos, where Karl's house is located. But after just a few missions it will be possible to move along the map. At the same time, there are no restrictions similar to those encountered in previous GTA games, practically none. A variety of cars for GTA: San Andreas will help you overcome the path between distant places. And there really will be plenty to choose from.

In the state, you will be able to visit and try out your capabilities in several cities, including: Los Santos, Las Venturas, Dillimore and Angel Pine. Different characters will be found in both urban and rural areas. But the main epicenter of events will still remain Grove Street in Los Santos.

The game's territories are surprisingly vast; it takes months to get acquainted with different corners this game world, where the unsurpassed characters of GTA: San Andreas await.

Fantastic Four

Charles would hardly have been able to advance further than Grove Street if not for his closest associates. The first part of the game ends with the four heroes (CJ, Sweet, Ryder and Big Smoke) faking their deaths by blowing up a car. These four most important GTA character: San Andreas will become a real storm in Los Santos. They are the pioneers, after which many new characters for GTA: San Andreas will appear.

Big brother

Sean Sweet Johnson, nicknamed Sweet Johnson, is one of the most respected members of the Grove gang. He, like Karl, often takes risks for the sake of his family and seeks a way to take revenge on the guilty members of the Ballas organization for the murder of his mother.

Since Karl left home 5 years ago, he and his brother severed their ties for a long time, and now the relationship is not so strong. But after CJ’s “big contribution” to the common cause, the friendship between the brothers again becomes strong and reliable. Sean has a rather serious character and often does not take the jokes of his comrades. The main goal of his life is to keep his family strong. He is wary of drug trafficking and is not very fond of Mexican gangs.

Sweet was voiced by FaizonLove, who is known for his voice in the series “Alf”

Carefree Rider

Lance Ryder Wilson doesn't like to rush. He is the Johnson family's next-door neighbor. He likes hip-hop artists from Easy-E from NWA. This character received the nickname Unpredictable because of his harsh character. Ryder holds a grudge against Carl for running away from the city during difficult times. He is constantly sarcastic about this topic. The main character first interacts with Lance during the robbery of a local restaurant chain, which is constantly represented in the games of the series Grand Theft Auto. The first attempt was unsuccessful, but that was just the beginning.

During the entire game, Ryder never took off his black glasses, and his trick is constantly smoking cigars. He constantly tries to demonstrate his level of intelligence, considering himself a genius (maybe because he once dropped out of school).

Where does Big Smoke come from?

Big Smoke is the name of the friends of Melvin Big Smoke Harris, who closes the fab four local gangsters. Smoke is a rather obese uncle who always doesn’t mind eating. His views on drugs differ from the Svitovs, and there are some plans to open a drug business near San Fierro. But this idea does not have the support of the rest of the gang. The intrigue remains whether Smoke will be able to resist the temptation of a big jackpot on the side. Melvin has a lot of ambitions and a lot of shops in the area under the hood. In Smoke's missions you will be able to try out a variety of cars for GTA: San Andreas.

A family is incomplete without women

Kendl Johnson is one of the few main female characters in the game. She is quite grumpy, but loves both brothers. True, Kendle cannot understand Sean's hostility towards Mexicans. By the way, he often has affairs with them. But when you need to speed up an important process or guide your brothers on the right path, she is right there! The sister does not participate in missions, but is a rather interesting character. One of the gangs that the guys from Grove Street oppose, the Orange Grove Families, is related to her because her boyfriend, Cesar Vialpando, is from there. Karl is trying in every possible way to change the situation and quarrel between the incompatible couple.

Other important characters

In fact, the game has a lot of both primary and characters who play a less prominent role. But in order to collect them all, an entire encyclopedia would be needed. Here we will try to add those who left a really important mark on the fate of C.J. and promotion storyline GTA. Based on the biographies of these characters, one can get an idea of the close connection of the game with African-American culture, and in particular with music. GTA: San Andreas mods also added several interesting characters to the game.

Parody of a gangsta rap singer

Og Loc (Jefferey OG Loc Martin), who appears a few missions into the game, really looks like a failed singer. He is hung with chains, wears a bandana, but does not stand out in anything special. Jeffrey is almost harmless, he has no problems with the police, except for a few. He is trying to create a unique style of music, which should mix hip-hop and reggae. In the game you can listen to what he composes. Og Lok is a comic parody of the image of a rapper in general.

Hermit Legend

Mad Dog (Madd Dogg) is the opposite of Martin, a legendary rap musician who broadcasts on one of the main radio stations - Radio Los Santos. He used to work hard and sell millions of records, but in the game he lives in solitude. Mad's mansion in Vinewood Hills will be an interesting object from an interesting mission in the style of stealth action. Mad no longer wants to participate in the turbulent life of local gangs and isolated himself in the wilderness. But there is also a dark side to the biography - now he is a slave to drugs and alcohol.

Old Rice

Old Reece is a good-natured man who owns a chain of hair salons. In each of them you can learn something new about life around you. And the barbershop, where Old Reece himself works, is a place where Karl is always ready not only to get a haircut, but also to talk. Rhys is especially warm towards Carl and is always ready to provide a little extra work if CJ needs it.

Failed love

CJ will have several affairs in the game. One of the most dangerous is Catalina. She is ready to shoot Karl and can immediately throw herself on his neck. A girl with a beautiful voice and amazing Mexican pronunciation, who is always ready to stand up for herself and even restore order in nearby settlements.

Catalina is the second important one female character in the game. Lives in the countryside, in a small van, in the hills. Karl will have to help her in several unforgettable tasks.

Bad Cop

Frank Tenpenny is one of the main villains of the game. Even though he wears a police badge. He absorbed all the stereotypes characteristic of a law enforcement officer in a black neighborhood. Constantly being sarcastic and playing a double game. He figures prominently throughout the storyline. And the part of the game after Karl's kidnapping is based on the insidious plans of this antagonist.

The voice of the character Tenpenny was done by the unsurpassed Samuel L. Jackson.

The game GTA: San Andreas, the passage of which is difficult to forget, created many amazing characters that will remain in the memory of fans of the series for a long time. There are many more funny, charismatic or simply naive characters waiting to be revealed, including Officer Pulaski (Tenpenny's partner), the anarchist Mike Toreno, the lucky Barry Thorne, the funny Woozy and the hate-filled Truth.
