Los Santos

Thank you for choosing Los Santos, California for your vacationing needs. We are the fastest growing city in the United States, and the most fun too! Sunny, warm, and bustling, you’ll never have a dull moment here. Instead of a Mayor, Los Santos is run by the Three Families; Skultzer, Murdoc, and Crowe. Providing protection to the masses, the Families maintain order in Los Santos all the while engaging in a mostly friendly struggle for power!

Need some transportation? Take one of our many, seedy, dangerous, but fun, subways! Routes wind all throughout Los Santos, even taking you to remote locations like deserts or plains! Or, take the bus; our drivers are full of wisdom and personality. Where else can you learn secret Marine Corps kill moves?

If you’re looking for a good time to have on your vacation, look no further. Los Santos is the place to be for excitement. Interested in some surf and turf? Beach Babes? [or Beach Hunks?] Come on down to Lucha Beach. Here, you can partake in the perfect ocean view and work on your tan, all at the same time. Swing by ‘Headshot’ Arcade and engage in one of Los Santos’ prized virtual reality games. Or, maybe your idea of fun is shopping until you drop? Have no fear, Los Santos is very fashion conscious, your money won’t last in that pocket of yours for a second! Like sports? Head on down to Santos Stadium, and watch the Los Santos Diablos take on all challengers.


If you’re interested in a more…bloody form of entertainment, purchase yourself a ticket to one of the many Three Families sponsored ranking fights. In these fights, powerful warriors from all around Los Santos battle one of the ten Bloodberries in order to be realized as one of the strongest in the city. It’s an exhilarating battle between souls! Just keep in mind that the Families cannot be held responsible from any wounds, or fatalities you may receive while spectating on a Ranking Fight.


Los Santos is a city with over two hundred years of history. Founded way back in 1806 by Thaddeus P.F. Skultzer it began as a humble township with one rule, and one rule only: the strong survive. That rule holds true even today, manifesting in tests of strength and fortitude that are the city’s numerous festivals. Mr. Los Santos, The Iron Gut Contest, and the annual Ro-Sham-Bo tourney are only a few of the notable festivities.

If you have a thirst for the unknown, take the challenge of visiting each of the Seven Wonders of Los Santos. These range from the illustrious Cannonball Point, a giant hill located in a barren property close to the city’s Mexican Border, said to be wher Thaddeus Skultzer himself stood against invading British. To enigmatic Dimensional Rifts that can be spotted on full moons, said to lead to realms completely different to our own. Ooooooooh spooky!

The information you read in this brochure is just the tip of the sand dune! Come on down to Los Santos!




So, you want to know about the Bloodberry Bureau? That’s like asking what is Los Santos. See, on paper, Los Santos is run by the Three Families. But in actuality, they're all just bowing at the feet of the Bureau. The Families’ homes, weapons, and even their goons are all courtesy of Bloodberry. It’s said that the Bureau’s activity isn’t limited to only Los Santos either…their tentacles are all up in world affairs. What’s there goal though you ask? Simple. The Bureau is in the business of war; their only goal is to foster as much chaos as possible. When chaos is around, people buy only one thing; weapons. And that my friend is the Bureau’s specialty.

The Ranking Fights in Los Santos? The Bureau’s proudest achievement next to the city itself. Each of the ten Bloodberries are part of the Bureau. They’re cold-blooded killers bred specifically for war. It’s said, that these ten men and women aren’t even human, and all who have challenged them have found their innards decorating the halls of the Bureau’s skyscraper. They are ranked in order of strength, with Number One being the highest. The Bloodberries’ rankings are not permanent however…

To the common man, the existence of the Bloodberry Bureau is nothing but an urban legend, chalked up to be number one on the list of Los Santos’ 7 Wonders. Those smarter than that seek the truth of the organization, and its role in their lives…I guess that’s you huh? Heh.



It's Kill Or Be Killed

The Ranking Fights in Los Santos are a popular form of entertainment in the violent paradise. They sell out faster than Diablos basketball games, and when one of the fights is on television, not a single dial is turned from the channel. Now, while there are only ten Bloodberries, there’s a whole mess of competitors, and, thus, the need for a strict set of rules and regulations.



Every season of the Ranking Tourney, only those chosen are allowed to become Challengers. Challengers are the only citizens of Los Santos allowed to enter a Ranking Fight against a Bloodberry. It’s very simple to become a Challenger. One must only commit one murder during the Pre-Season [October-November].

The murder needed to become a Challenger can be of anyone, so long as it is human, and not a Bloodberry. The Pre-Season is the most dangerous time in Los Santos. Many citizens do not leave the house, in fear that their life might be taken as someone’s entry fee into the tourney.

Upon slaying their entry fee, an agent from the Battle Committee contacts the Challenger, informing them of their entry into the tourney.



To prevent ‘needless bloodshed’ Bloodberries are granted immunity when they are not in battle. If a Challenger exerts any physical force on a Bloodberry outside of a Ranking Fight, they are immediately disqualified from the tournament.

*Disqualification = Death



When a Challenger is entered into the Ranking Tournament, you are branded with a barcode that has your entry number. Entry numbers are based solely on the difficulty of that Challenger’s entry fee kill. Your number is your only identity to the Battle Committee. You may have a name, or even a title, but they don’t care.



As a Challenger, your life is in constant danger. Both in, and out of Ranking Fights. Outside of Ranking Fights, you could fall prey to another Challenger looking to lessen the competition. In Ranking Fights you now not only have the competition, but the Bloodberries to deal with. Be prepared, and remember, fight, fight, fight!



Designated weeks throughout the Season will be dedicated to Ranking Fights against each one of the ten Bloodberries. Starting from number 10, and ending with number 1. With the start of the week, a riddle will be issued to the Challengers; this riddle details the location of that particular Bloodberry.
The Challengers’ goal during these weeks is easy enough: locate and kill the Bloodberry. But knowing your goal, and completing it are two different things you know? Traps, henchmen, mazes, they all stand in the Challengers’ way as they hunt down their mark.

Points are awarded to each Challenger over the course of the Season based on performance and kills, big points are awarded if a Challenger happens to slay a Bloodberry. At the end of the Season, the Challenger with the highest amount of points is crowned Champion, and granted one very special gift.

What is the gift? It’s been said that it’s riches, or women, or even a lifetime supply of food. But the only real source of knowledge on the Champion’s gift, the previous winners, are gone. Each year, the winner of the Rankings Tournament disappears.

Never to be heard from again.



The deadliest of the deadly. The cream of the crop. The chocolate chips in the cookie.
These ten fighters are quite possibly, the most dangerous men and women the world has to offer. For your convenience, the Battle Committee has comprised this dossier on the ten Bloodberries.

If you want to play a Bloodberry, let me know. If you play as a Bloodberry though, I recommend you have a second character, since Bloodberry's are pre-made, and not very active for the bulk of the story.

It's December 31st 2011, New Years Eve, and the last day of Dead Head Fred's tournament week. Nobody's even come close to his position in Los Santos' graveyard. Either his legion of undead, or the small force them back. You are a Challenger, and have had enough of this stalemate. Knowing that tonight is your last chance to take down the Bloodberry, you're giving this last rush your all.

Take up your sword, slice off some heads, and always remember to save the game, because death is just a breath away in Holy Los Santos.
