Lucia is the first female protagonist? Perhaps the first well-developed one, but the classic 2D GTA universe had its own female protagonists, albeit without personalities (like all other characters).
Candy (GTA 2, Game Boy Color ver.), Divine (GTA 1997), Mikki (GTA 1997), Lucia Caminos (GTA 6), Katie (GTA 1997), Ulrica (GTA 1997), Gretchen (GTA 2, Game Boy Color ver.).
Btw Idk there were two more girls in GTA 2. And I had a hard time recreating their appearances from the original 2-pixel picture, so these are mostly headcanons. Specifically, Candy looks more like my gender bender version of Claude in GTA 3 (I can actually see her with short hair), and Gretchen was based on her german name, so she looks like my gender bender Leo Kasper already :D
