Barbara Schternvart



Barbara Schternvart is a police officer who lives in the desert of Las Venturas and can become one of Carl Johnson's girlfriends. She can be found outside the El Quebrados Police Station and prefers Carl to be fat, although this is not necessary if sex appeal is at maximum. Players can take her out on dates between 00:00 and 06:00.

Whilst dating Barbara, Carl does not lose his weapons after being Busted. When their relationship reaches 50%, Carl gains access to her Ranger, and at 100%, a police uniform is delivered to Carl's wardrobe. She will ask Carl in for 'coffee' when their relationship reaches 60%.

Barbara was voiced by Danielle Lee Greaves.

Driving date
While on a driving date, Barbara prefers CJ to drive at roughly the same speed as regular traffic.

Food date
While on a food date, Barbara prefers to go to diners. The closest diner is the one just southwest of where Barbara lives, along the highway connecting Las Venturas and San Fierro. It is marked by a pink drink icon.

Dancing date
The closest dance club, marked with a music record, is the one near The Camel's Toe in Las Venturas, another option is the Gaydar Station in San Fierro. The player will need 3000 or more points to have a successful date. Both clubs are a considerable distance from Barbara's home, and require quick travel to make it before Barbara gives up on the date.

(Tip: To get to a dance club really quickly, you may want to get a Maverick by either sneaking past through the guard at SFPD's helipad or at the Bayside.)

Trivia

 * Barbara has two children, who are unseen in game, and she claims "that she used to be married to a real bastard", which would explain why Barbara is possible to date. However, another quote, "My husband called me a control freak", suggests that she is dating CJ secretly, however another quote, "Hi, I'm Barbara. I'm divorced and have two children. You interested?" declares that she is actually divorced, but still refers to her ex as her husband.
 * If the player doesn't meet her preferrences (fat over 50%), she may refuse to date him, just like Helena Wankstein does.
 * Barbara's Ranger's license plate reads CUFFS.
 * Barbara is the only female officer in the GTA series.
 * There is a glitch that occurs after she is done fighting a person, where she will pull out a gun and start shooting the player.
 * Sometimes, Barbara talks about a plane crash near The Big Ear. This could be a reference to the mission Dam and Blast, which involves bailing out of a plane, causing it to crash near the Big Ear.
 * Since she gives Carl a LSPD uniform after getting 100%, it is possible that her husband or Barbara herself used to work for LSPD.
