Karen Daniels

Background

Karen Daniels is an American agent of the International Affairs Agency (IAA), born around 1981. She says she grew up in the Midwest. The agency appears to have pressured her into its service in exchange for "giving her life back", which hints at a criminal past. In 2008 in Liberty City, working for the United Liberty Paper front, she went undercover as "Michelle" to keep watch on Niko Bellic. She later moved to Los Santos. She is voiced by Rebecca Henderson.

Events of Grand Theft Auto V

Karen appears in Three's Company, where the IAA is holding Mr. K in its Los Santos offices. She beats his hands with a flashlight and threatens worse. Before she can go further, Michael De Santa crashes through the office window as part of the FIB extraction, and Franklin Clinton gives cover with a sniper rifle from a nearby building. Karen gets out unhurt and calls for backup, but the prisoner is gone. She does not appear again in the story.

Role in GTA Online

Now a senior IAA agent, she meets the heist crew in the first setup of The Humane Labs Raid to hand over access codes. An FIB ambush cuts the handoff short. After the finale she gives the crew a grenade to destroy the evidence.

Trivia

• Her IAA badge in GTA V reads "Michelle ABC" rather than her real name.
• She first appeared in GTA IV as one of Niko's girlfriends.
