While not seen in the main story of GTA San Andreas, these characters made quite an impact.
Summary Five Important Unseen Characters from GTA San Andreas #5 – Beverly Johnson #4 – Berkley #3 – Brian Johnson #2 – Ralph Pendelbury #1 – Defeated GSF MembersSeveral of these invisible characters appear in a flashback or are mentioned in casual dialogue. Their importance to the overall story varies, but they left a lasting impression on GTA San Andreas.
Notably, the vast majority of them have already passed away by the events of the game.
GTA San Andreas highlights several interesting characters. However, many of them are influenced (directly or indirectly) by characters who are unable to share the spotlight with them. Whether it's a member of the Johnson family or a minor antagonist, they still leave an impression.
Five important unseen characters from GTA San Andreas
# 5 – Beverly Johnson
When Ballas attacked Grove Street Families (GSF) in 1992, Beverly Johnson was the unfortunate victim of a drive-by. Her death is what brings CJ back into the fold as he takes a flight from Liberty City to Los Santos.
There are several mysteries about Bevery Johnson, such as her involvement with the GSF and whether her ghost roams the area. What is clear is that her family was devastated by the loss of their mother. This leads to several tense moments between CJ and Sweet at the start of GTA San Andreas.
A portrait of her can be found inside the Johnson residence. GTA players will notice that she shares her in-game model with a random pedestrian. Despite her lack of airtime, her death is what sets the entire plot into motion.
# 4 – Berkley
Berkley is an invisible rival of Zero, who runs a rival hobby shop. These two electronic specialists are bitter enemies to the end. Ever since Zero won first place at a science fair, Berkley has made it his mission to take him down. For most GTA players, it's as ridiculous as it sounds.
Unlike most of the game's antagonists, Berkley is never seen in person. He prefers to let his henchmen do the dirty work. Berkley dates back to the times when GTA 3 and Vice City had unseen enemies such as the ruler of Uptown Yardies, King Courtney.
GTA players have to help Zero chase his longtime rival from San Fierro. Through a series of difficult missions, players will put their RC skills to the test. Without admitting defeat, he later interfered in an ongoing casino robbery at the end of the story.

# 3 – Brian Johnson
Not much is known about the younger brother Johnson in GTA San Andreas. What is known is that Brian's death resulted in CJ moving to Liberty City. The circumstances of his death remain unknown, but apparently CJ didn't do enough to save him. Sweet brings this up constantly.
Brian had a close relationship with CJ during his childhood. It's a shame what ended up happening to him. Whether Brian was involved in gang activity (like his brothers) remains a mystery.
It is possible that Brian had some physical resemblance to CJ. In one mission, small arms dealer Emmet originally confused the latter with the former.
#2 - Ralph Pendulumbury
The former member of CRASH was only seen briefly in the introductory video for GTA San Andreas. Otherwise, he is only mentioned by name in the base game itself. Ralph Pendelbury was considered an example by Frank Tenpenny, who saw him as a small obstacle to overcome.
Ultimately, CJ is framed for the Pendelbury murder (despite having just landed at Liberty City airport). Tenpenny blackmails CJ into getting his hands dirty for CRASH This lasts through the entire first act of GTA San Andreas, before Tenppeny uses other methods to get CJ work.
Pendelbury set off a chain reaction that would eventually lead to the deaths of every member of CRASH involved in his murder.
#1 – Defeated GSF Members
When CJ was in Liberty City, these were the troops that held the line while he was away. Having been away for the past five years, CJ returns to attend his mother's funeral. His brother Sweet isn't too happy to see him again.
He called CJ for his lack of assistance in times of need.
Grove Street had to bury many bodies in Vinewood Cemetery. Sweet brings up how bad their situation is as she takes a good look at the nearby headstones. Several key members of the GSF fell. This includes Tony, Big Devil and Little Devil, all of whom are presumably loyal members of the gang.
They did everything they could to defend their territory. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough. At this point in GTA San Andreas, the Ballas invaded the oldest territories.
