Castro's Mistress, (sometimes referred to as "Castro's Human Shield") was a minor character in Call of Duty: Black Ops. She was seen in the mission "Operation 40".
When she and Castro's double were found in Carlos' old plantation, the double took her as a human shield. The player can either choose to try and spare her by going for the double's head, or the player can simply shoot through her. If she lives through the assassination, she will pick up a KS-23 from the bed and try to kill Woods and Mason. At which point, she is either killed by Woods or the player, depending on who fires first.

Trivia
- Her gown is rendered separately from her body. This can be seen via clipping through her after she is dead, which can be done on consoles by going prone. This is different from all other NPCs, who have their bodies rendered with their clothes as their skin. This suggests Treyarch orrginally were going to have her naked.
- She cannot be gibbed.
- The Call of Duty: Black Ops official game guide refers to her as a prostitute.
