Shaundi

She’s a part of "The Third Street Saints"

Shaundi matures emotionally and in terms of combat skill compared to the drugged-out, apathetic, hedonistic "hippie" archetype she was originally attributed. Shaundi has become much more sensible, and takes her tasks very seriously. Shaundi expresses her feelings very strongly, and has no problem with demeaning other people, regardless if they're friends or not.

the former hippie has become more focused, both on the Saints and her celebrity status. In line with the expansion of the Saints' brand, she now has moved from drug trafficking to having her own TV dating show and a new look that is distinctly more professional than her previous bohemian style. She attributes her new focus and sobriety to her new reality show, "I Wanna Sleep with Shaundi"; she simply didn't have the time to smoke up anymore.

Her main obsession after arriving in Steelport is destroying The Syndicate, the loss of Johnny having affected her deeply and continues to do so for the rest of the game, prioritizing his revenge against Loren. As the Saints settle into Steelport, Shaundi becomes angry with how long it is taking to find and kill Phillipe Loren, and, when informed about Powder by Playa, she was threatening to burn it to the ground, much to Playa's surprise. When they get there, Pierce and Playa arguing about entering the place pushes Shaundi's patience to her limit and she quickly shoots the guards before leading the way to the back. Shaundi hacks the computer in the building to get the details, while Playa and Pierce deal with the Morningstar. Afterwards, the three Saints return to the Saints HQ to load up on weapons before heading to the Syndicate Tower to kill Loren, proving successful thanks to Playa's quick thinking. Before they leave, Shaundi tells the crew that they should destroy the building to send a message, although Oleg Kirrlov reasons that keeping the building would be useful.

After killing Loren, the Saints head back to Stilwater to deal with Johnny's funeral, but are ambushed by Killbane's Luchadores, angering Shaundi again, and she goes with Playa and Pierce to help get others, although she gets annoyed by the fact that their first new recruit,Kinzie Kensington, is a former FBI agent. After Kinzie is rescued, Shaundi gets her to safety.

When Pierce throws a party, Shaundi threatens to kill him over the phone, annoyed that they are partying while the Syndicate is still out there, and that Playa was defending him. When at the party, she gets close to losing her cool with Pierce and Zimos, and when Playa and Pierce tell her that she needs to move on, she storms out frustrated at the other Saints' seeming lack of compassion.

Shaundi spends her time in Steelport assisting Playa in bringing down the Syndicate and, when Kinzie informs her and Playa about Killbane tarnishing the Saints' reputation, the two of them track down Killbane and Shaundi almost assassinated him, but Matt Miller hit their chopper with an EMP and crashed their helicopter. She also has to deal with watching Josh Birk after he is kidnapped from under STAG's watch, much to her displeasure.

When Shaundi gets kidnapped by STAG, Playa has surgery in an attempt to rescue Shaundi, taking on the appearance of Cyrus Temple, and travels to Thermopylae, taking Pierce and Viola DeWynter as "captives". The four escape, but not before blowing up the aircraft carrier, angering STAG and making them instate martial law in the city.

Later, Playa receives a call from Angel De LaMuerte. Killbane is at the airport, fleeing the city. Halfway through the call another call comes through, this one from Kia, informing them that Shaundi and Viola are strapped to bombs at the base of the Steelport monument, and that she plans to kill them in the explosion so that when their bodies are found, the Saints will be viewed as terrorists. The player must choose between saving the girls or annihilating the last member of the Syndicate

they travel to the Magarac Island where the three are being held. After disabling the bombs and fighting through waves of STAG soldiers, Playa reaches Kia at the top of the statue, who holds Shaundi as a Human Shield. Playa however, is able to kill Kia and save the hostages, and leaves with Shaundi and Pierce to go film Gangstas in Space.

Backstory:

Shaundi grew up with older siblings and parents that were busy with work. Christmas was her favorite time of year as it was the one time when the whole family got together. As she got older, her siblings moved away and her parents divorced. She still believed in Santa, later saying "I needed Santa" and that she'd never had a good Christmas after her family left, as she was either stoned or "with awful boyfriends who never really cared".

Shaundi was once a student at Stilwater University, during which she visited Steelport while on spring break. She had relations with countless men, including Steelport's famous pimp Zimos, and frequently mentions "one of my exes" as her source of information. She also served a brief stint in prison, where she met Laura and Johnny Gat.

She was a big fan of Keith David and had a crush on him; she was also a fan of the film They Live, which she mistook for a realistic film.

In the future, she'd regret a number of her boyfriends and say that they never really cared about her. She'd particularly regret Veteran Child, who threw a limited edition Feed Dogs vinyl on the fire once. They dated when he was already a high-ranking Sons of Samedi member.

Shaundi becomes a member of the Saints after Playa impresses her with some Stunt Jumps. She is later made a lieutenant and put in charge of gathering information on the Sons of Samedi, a job she is initially reluctant to undertake.

She quickly begins undermining the Sons of Samedi's drug operations by learning the recipe for replicating Loa Dust, with the assistance of Playa and Laura, and telling the gang the location of the Samedi's main drug farm. The Sons of Samedi, angry at the attack on their business, send DJ Veteran Child (who told her about the farm when they were dating) to deal with the problem. Veteran Child finds Shaundi alone in the Saints Hideout, and, after knocking her out, kidnaps her and takes her to On Track, a dance club. Once Playa arrives, Veteran Child tries to use the hostage lieutenant as a shield, but Playa finds a way to take him out and helps Shaundi out of the club, leaving the DJ's corpse on the dance floor.

As Veteran Child had bested her, Playa doubted Shaundi's ability to hold her own. It isn't until she announces her plan to bug the city's traffic cameras that Playa allows her to come along, due to the fact that Playa has no idea how to hack into the police computer.

Once the Saints track The General down, Shaundi and Playa attack him at the Rounds Square Shopping Center, fighting their way through dozens of The General's gang members before finally taking out the Sons of Samedi leader.

She also assists against the Brotherhood, much to the annoyance of Pierce, as she keeps getting the tactician role ahead of him. One time, she gives Playa intelligence that Pierce told her about.

Shaundi is unlocked as a Homie after completing the Sons of Samedi arc. When she is called using the Cellphone, she arrives in a Voyage, wielding a K6 Krukov.
