niko and roman bellic

Niko Bellic is an Eastern European who previously fought in the Yugoslav Wars as part of a Fifteen Man Squad, possibly for Republika Srpska, although it is unclear which side he fought on. He is moved to Liberty City by promises of living the American Dream from his cousin Roman Bellic, but when his plans go sour, he turns to the seedy underworld of Liberty City to build his way to the top. Niko is a serious, calm, self-reflective character and possesses a deeper intellect and a strong moral guidance. He has been trained extensively in weapon use and hand-to-hand fighting skills. He often argues with his cousin Roman because he always gets into trouble which Niko has to save him from, and because Niko's violent actions often send underworld figures to Roman's way. Niko grew up in Yugoslavia, where he fought in the Yugoslav Wars. He later worked for organized crime syndicates as a hired-gun in Liberty City. Ever since the wars ended, Niko's main goal in life was to find and kill one of two men: Florian Cravic or Darko Brevic, for one of them betrayed his military unit during the wars and nearly killed him. Niko is the younger cousin of Roman Bellic and the son of Milica Bellic. Niko has a buzzcut, stubble and a tough guy look. He usually wears a tracksuit and leather jacket.

Roman Bellic is Niko Bellic's cousin who has lived in Liberty City for 10 years. Roman claims to be living the "American Dream" and that he has two women, four hot tubs and fifteen sports cars, but in reality he owns a gritty taxi firm in Broker and lives in a small apartment. Roman is also heavily in debt thanks to his gambling habit. When Niko arrives, everything seems to go wrong at once, but together they work their way up. Roman is often harassed and intimidated by the various criminal figures he owes money to. Roman was born in the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and moved to Liberty City in 1998, aged twenty-one. He later claims to be living the "American Dream" and that he has two women, four hot tubs and fifteen sports cars. This encourages Niko to join him in America, where Niko discovers that Roman lied about living in paradise; his cousin is actually the owner of a small, gritty taxi firm, a small, roach infested apartment in Broker, and has large gambling debts, owed to the Albanians and Vladimir Glebov. Roman is married to Mallorie Bardas. He is the nephew of Milica Bellic. Roman is fat, has tidy short hair and a circle beard. He is naive and high on life.
