Who is niko bellic

Niko and Roman then drive back to the depot, and tells him about Ray Bulgarin, stating that Bulgarin is similar to Dardan, though is more powerful. After his second encounter with the Albanians at Roman's taxi depot, Roman asks Niko to drive Mallorie and her friend Michelle.

During the drive, Mallorie suggests that Niko and Michelle should date together. The two accept, and after Niko leaves the women, he calls to Roman, who tells him to go to the Russian clothing store on Mohawk.

After Niko buys new clothes, he sets a date with Michelle, which can be done before or after Niko final confrontion with the Albanians. Niko enters to Michelle's house, and the two drive to the carnival, called "funfair" by Niko. When the two arrive, Michelle notices that the carnival is closed, and the two decide to play bowling. After the game, Niko takes Michelle back to her house, and the two begin to date. After the defeat of the Albanians, Niko enters to Roman's depot, where he sees Vlad flirting with Mallorie.

Niko asks where is Roman, but Mallorie does not know. Vlad tells Niko to make him a coffee, but Niko refuses, making Vlad angry. Roman then enters to the office, where he is threatened by Vlad for not paying his debt. Roman then gets a phone call from a regular customer, Jermaine Andrews.

During the drive, Jermaine tells that there's a shipment of stolen auto parts in the lockup that he intends to resell; he just needs Niko's help in transporting them. The two are ambushed by the police, but Niko is able to escape them and drive away from the place, to Jermaine's place of job, Pay 'n' Spray.

A while later, Niko gets another taxi job from Roman, this time, to drive Roman's friend Little Jacob. Jacob asks Niko to watch out a meet with some Yardie drugs dealers, and gives Niko a pistol.

Little Jacob expects only one gang member, but three appear. They begin to shoot at Little Jacob, with Jacob and Niko open fire too. After the three men are killed, another gang member appears on the roof, but is killed by Niko. After all the gangsters have been killed Niko and Jacob escape the alley way, Little Jacob says that he is impressed at Niko's shooting skills and gives him his number so they can work together later on. Jacob then asks Niko to drive him to the Homebrew Cafe.

After their first meeting, Niko helps Jacob with a problem. The two head to an apartment where dealers that set up a drug deal with Jacob are living. As they arrive, Jacob sends Niko to search for the gangsters behind the apartment building, in case they will. It is proved to be true, and Niko kills the escaping hoods. The two then drives off to another apartment, where the next rival group is located. The two break out the house, killing every member at the house. Following this, Niko drives Jacob to the Cafe.

A few days later, Niko begins to work off his cousin's large debt by meeting Vlad at a local Russian bar called Comrades. Once Niko arrives, he starts to notice many of the Russians that hang out at the bar, such as a local drunk named Mel , who drunkenly stumbles into Niko while insulting the bar tender, Mickey.

Niko walks to the back of the bar where he sees Vlad hugging and saying goodbye to a business associate of his. Vlad then invites Niko to sit down with him and talk about a Chinese shop owner who owes Vlad protection money. Niko then leaves the bar and heads to the China shop on Compton Avenue and Dukes Street in Cerveza Heights , and has a choice of either taking a cab ride to the location, making this his first time using public transportation , or just driving to the location himself.

Once Niko arrives at the China shop, he scares the owner into giving him the protection money, having several different methods of doing so and heads back to Comrades. Niko heads back to Comrades a few days later to receive more work from Vlad. This time Niko hears Vlad talking to Mallorie. Niko warns Vlad to stay away from the her right before he get instructions from Vlad to go to a laundromat to make the shopowner pay his debts.

Niko heads out to the laundromat. Once he's there, the shopowner panics and then flees with Niko in pursuit. During the war, Niko faced many tragedies, including his squadron being ambushed, leading to only 3 survivors.

After the war, Niko turned to a life of crime, spending some time in prison. After his release from prison, he started working for a human trafficking ring led by Ray Bulgarin.

After a boat carrying human cargo sank in the Adriatic Sea during a smuggling run, Niko managed to swim to safety, but the boat and cargo were lost. Bulgarin believed Niko had betrayed him and stole his money, so Niko joined the merchant navy to escape his wrath. However, he quickly finds out Roman's lies about the life in Liberty City, and begins to understand the true way of life in the USA.

Niko is a serious, calm, self-reflective character and possesses a deep intellect and strong moral guidance. He is very confident in his abilities and does not question himself about a job if it pays enough. To avenge Kate's death, Niko, along with his friend Jacob Hughes, chases Pegorino throughout the city before confronting and killing him on Happiness Island. At the end of the game, a Weazel News report states that Niko is wanted for questioning by the police although not as a suspect for the events of his cousin's wedding.

Although Niko often protests that he "has his papers" while fleeing police, Roman says that Niko does not have a visa. This is further evidenced in a Liberty Tree article about the death of the Platypus's captain, Zorba Philippidis, which states that none of the crew possess visas.

If Niko chooses to do the deal with Dimitri, Niko likely gives up his life of crime and stays close to his friends as they are there for him. Also, Niko says to Mallorie that her child will need not to worry about being fatherless, hinting Niko will help take care of her child and assume a fatherly role. If Niko chooses to seek Revenge on Dimitri, Niko's love interest is killed, so all he has left is his cousin and friends.

He most likely gives up his life of crime and tries to live a normal one with Roman, as is hinted by the comments made about him in Grand Theft Auto V. It is hinted that he has completely given up a life of crime, and has now retired. While setting up for the first heist, Lester Crest mentioned to Michael De Santa that he knew "an Eastern European guy making moves in Liberty City", but dismissed the idea as "he went quiet".

This would hint that he'd continued his life as a career criminal for a few more years before leaving it, especially if he was able to gain such notoriety as recently as of Later while on a heist, if Packie was chosen for the job, he begins talking about his most successful job in Liberty City, and then mentions Niko, revealing that he doesn't even know what became of him, and that he is "probably dead".

It is possible though that Niko has cut all ties to his previous criminal lifestyle and is retired. If Michael survives the game, one potential scenario in his house sees his family gathered around the dining room table.

Jimmy, Michael's son, is viewing a Lifeinvader page on a laptop. By using a camera to zoom in, the page is revealed to be that of Niko Bellic, complete with an image of the character. He now lives in Broker, still working as a taxi driver for Bellic Cab Service, and still in contact with Mallorie Bardas, Little Jacob, and Brucie Kibbutz who all liked his latest status, and a Happy Birthday note for Roman which was posted recently.

A wanted poster for Niko can be seen on the porch of a house just west of Sandy Shores. This, with his Lifeinvader activity, leaves the possibility that Niko may still be alive.

Niko has brown hair and hazel eyes. He has facial hair that resembles a "scruffy" looking 5 o'clock shadow, which fits his 'thug' appearance very well. Niko isn't as heavily muscled as Luis or Johnny and he's more slender than both of them. Still, Niko has enough physical strength to hold his own in a fistfight and he's capable of pulling himself up on a ledge after hanging by his straight arms. Niko has a scar running through his left brow.

He most likely got the scar during the war, however, this has not been confirmed. Niko's body is of 'average' build, but characters like Bernie Crane mention that "Niko is still in great shape.

People consider him to be "above average" build despite his slender appearance. Niko is very protective of his family and loved ones, particularly his cousin Roman, whom Niko constantly has to worry about due to his gambling habit.

Roman has an indiscrete nature of frequently getting the pair into trouble. He is withdrawn among strangers, but has good manners, and shows a softer side with love interests like Kate McReary and Michelle.

That said, the horrors of war, both witnessed and perpetrated by Niko, have given him a great sense of guilt, and an ambivalence about the value of human life — he warns away pursuers and expresses regret over his past violence, but also feels that killing is all that he can do, readily taking on jobs which necessarily involve murder. Niko is prone to violence after being angered and he has an explosive temper when he is betrayed, manipulated, or his loyalty is questioned, but he is also quick to help the defenseless and unfortunate, even those he merely meets in passing; he apparently possesses a sense of idealism which was wounded by his wartime experiences.

Unfortunately, such a split attitude leads to hypocrisy — Niko, for example, appears to genuinely sympathize with the McRearys' grief over the demise of one of their brothers either Derrick McReary or Francis McReary , despite having secretly committed that murder himself. This makes it highly possible that Niko is a pessimist.

Niko's bitterness at the murder of his friends during the war has consumed him, and he is unable to let it go, taking on several highly dangerous jobs merely to enable his quest for vengeance.

Several of his friends, most notably Roman, urge him to find a new reason to live, and there are many morality choices for Niko to emphasize his trait. Niko's business-like manner usually leads him to behave more maturely and cautiously than his acquaintances, although with acquaintances like Brucie Kibbutz, Bernie Crane and Roman, this is no surprise.

He has an apparent distaste for illegal drugs, much like Carl Johnson and Victor Vance. He frequently turns down Little Jacob's offers for marijuana and warns Packie about his cocaine habit. He also finds it distasteful to traffic in cocaine and particularly heroin, although this may be due to the heavy jail sentences they attract as much as any moral qualms.

He is skeptical of American mainstream culture, which he sees as "shallow" and "hypocritical" and has trouble relating to Roman's fascination with the country. However, he reasons that being in America is far better than back in Serbia due to the country's instability and misery.

Niko also exhibits dislike for American conservative politicians, whom he considers to be hypocrites. An example is Bryce Dawkins, whom Niko says is a "bullshitter" for giving homophobic speeches and preaching about family values to gain political power when he himself is bisexual. However, a conversation between Niko and Kiki Jenkins reveals he considers himself neither liberal nor conservative, and that the war gave him a highly cynical view of politicians in general.

Niko has a certain degree of empathy for other people, even random strangers, and feels obliged to help others who cannot help themselves.
