10 Most Evil Grand Theft Auto Characters

10. Catalina

In a franchise brimming with backstabbers, few do it quite so religiously as this drug cartel menace.

In San Andreas, Catalina often serves as a darkly hilarious figure, putting protagonist CJ through the wringer time and time again. Unsurprisingly, the pair's tortured romance comes to an end, with Catalina winding up with GTA III protagonist, Claude.

The eerily silent Claude's grim betrayal and subsequent revenge odyssey against Catalina make up much of the beloved series' third instalment. For those who played GTA III before San Andreas though, it can be quite jarring to witness just how different Catalina is beforehand.

GTA III shows off her wicked side with gusto, something that's only really matched by the bloodthirsty cruelty of Claude himself. Later on in the game, now in danger thanks to her bitter ex-lover, Catalina goes ahead and betrays another associate, gunning down her partner in crime, Miguel.

Like so many of her actions in the game, betraying Miguel comes back to bite her when the hapless crook is tortured beyond belief to give up information about her crimes.
