Carmen Ortiz is a dateable character in Grand Theft Auto IV. She is also a minor character in The Lost and Damned, and is mentioned in The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Description[]

Carmen can be found on Love-Meet.net, where she uses the username SoBoHoe. She is a nurse but often talks of her ambitions to be a television presenter. She lives in an apartment on Valdez Avenue in Fortside, Bohan, but seems unhappy there, as she will randomly ask Niko to buy her a place in Algonquin: however, Niko always refuses. Her profile on the LCPD Database also states that she is a nymphomaniac.

Personality[]

CarmenOrtiz-GTAIV

Carmen in the street

Carmen usually refers to herself in third person, e.g. 'She' and 'Carmen'. She also considers herself very attractive, and upon entering strip clubs will say, "My tit job is so much better than the ones these girls have got." She also sometimes has her nails and hair done. Her sexuality on Lovemeet is put as "free spirit", and she can be seen suggestively dancing with Elizabeta Torres at a party during the Blow Your Cover mission. She claims to be in several different no-strings attached relationships with men as well as Niko, and says she will never settle down "like her mama." She also has problems with her father, whom he berates her for her lifestyle.

Carmen is a very sexually forward character. On almost every date with Niko, she will make a reference to sex. Examples include when Niko takes her to play pool, she will comment, "Let's see how good you are with your stick", this will alter depending on whether Niko wins or loses. If he takes her to eat at a diner, she will ask Niko "you ain't gonna try and get with me in the restroom are you?" Also, when Niko asks to sleep with her, she demands that he come inside.

Her personality is very similar to Brucie Kibbutz, as she is very vain about her appearances and in fact states that she loves looking good. However, she is sometimes insecure about her appearance. During an interaction with Niko, she briefly questions her attractiveness, as she claims that attractive women are destined for television. Similarly, she also asks Niko if her teeth need to be whitened. Each time, Niko reassures her that she looks great, which Carmen appreciates.

Consistent with her desire to move up in life, Carmen wishes to be a television presenter. She thinks it would be great to host the TV show I'm Rich. Niko asks how that would be meaningful, so Carmen explains that she would find meaning from fame. When Niko inquires about her potentially leaving Liberty City, she states that there is nowhere else to live, except Los Santos, likely because she could achieve success in Vinewood.

At one point, she asks Niko why they never meet any important people, saying that she met Mayor Julio Ochoa while he opened a new hospital ward. Apparently, she could tell that Ochoa wanted to sleep with her, but she didn't do it because of her relationship with Niko. If true, this demonstrates that she develops some loyalty to Niko. However, Carmen establishes that she has no issue seeing other men.

Dating Preferences[]

Carmen likes expensive clothing from Modo or Perseus and likes Niko to wear different clothes on each date. Carmen is wilder than the other girlfriends as she enjoys it when Niko drives fast or gets a wanted level. Escaping from the cops is an ideal way to raise her fondness. She prefers to visit bars or strip clubs for early dates and restaurants for later dates. She likes expensive luxury/sports cars and coupes, and also enjoys motorcycles, saying "my friend drives a bike, too, Niko."

Rewards[]

Once Niko's relationship level gets high enough, Niko will gain the ability to call Carmen for medical advice and a quick health boost. This will only work if you haven't been shot since the last time you were healed by eating or paramedics, since she cannot tell you how to treat gunshot wounds.
