Life is complicated; I killed people, smuggled people, sold people. Perhaps here, things will be different. -- Niko Bellic

Niko Bellic is an Eastern European (Serbian) that has come to America to find a better life, following the advice of his cousin Roman; however, when he arrives, he finds that Roman has been lying - he isn't rich, he isn't popular, and he's actually in a load of trouble. Niko has been duped to solve Roman's problems, and soon ends up in trouble himself. However, we soon find out that Niko isn't here in Liberty City just because of the supposed fortune and hot babes; he has ulterior motives...
