Even if you win, the characters involved lose, especially since many of them end up dying in Red Dead Redemption, which takes place chronologically after the sequel.
Let's see who doesn't make it out of this game alive though. All of these characters appear in Red Dead Redemption, so it's no surprise that they survive the horrible tragedy of Red Dead Redemption 2. No matter what you do, Arthur Morgan dies. There's currently no secret ending where he somewhat survives, fading into the mists of time under a new name. As noted in the endings above, he either dies from his tuberculosis, a bullet to the head, or a knife in the back.
The life and death of an outlaw. The Irish wild card of the Van der Linde is saved from the government early on, only to take an errant bullet in Chapter 3. Sean is the first real character death in Red Dead Redemption 2, getting shot in the head while the crew is walking through the town of Rhodes.
The former member of the O'Driscoll gang is ultimately captured by his old crew. They decapitate him and put his headless body back on his horse as an opening salvo against the Van der Linde gang. The Van der Linde Gang's elder statesman urges Dutch and crew to leave the outlaw life behind again and again.
In the Saint Denis' bank heist, Hosea is captured by the Pinkertons. Agent Milton shoots Hosea in the chest in front of the entire gang as a warning. One of the more well-loved new characters in Red Dead Redemption 2 thanks to one memorable mission, Lenny dies in the Saint Denis' bank heist.
As Arthur and Lenny run across the rooftops looking for a way out, Lenny is shot by waiting Pinkertons. A young woman in love with Dutch, Molly dies in the game's fifth chapter. After being ignored by Dutch and Arthur for much of the game, Molly returns drunk and angry. Molly says that she told Milton and Ross about the Saint Denis job.
Miss Grimshaw shoots her through the chest with a shotgun to end Chapter 5. It's later found that Molly never actually ratted Dutch out. The lead agent of the Pinkertons spends his time hunting down the entire Van der Linde gang, though all he really wants is Dutch. Towards the end of the game, most believe John Marston is all but dead and Milton has kidnapped Abigail.
Dutch and Micah want to keep riding with their money, but Arthur and Sadie go to save Abigail, refusing to let Jack grow up as an orphan. In a struggle with Milton, Arthur is losing until Abigail shoots Milton in the head.
For her backbone, she gets shot in the gut and dies, then and there. Sadie joins the gang in Red Dead Redemption 2's opening chapter, transitioning to a proper gun-wielding outlaw in Chapter 3. Sadie ends up helping Arthur in some of the endgame missions, after Arthur has split from Dutch. When not working on his various projects, acting as Screen Rant's gaming editor, or spending time with his family, Christopher J. Teuton mostly enjoys playing with dogs and climbing on trees.
By Christopher J. Teuton Published Jan 12, Share Share Tweet Email 0. Arthur saw Hosea as a father figure, much like Dutch , and looked up to him.
Even admitting that he likes Hosea more. He often played along with Hosea's shenanigans, such as the role of the "idiot brother" to "The Clown" played by Hosea when the two were giving away moonshine at the Saloon in Rhodes , albeit Arthur did so reluctantly, indicating that he and Hosea have done this before.
Arthur and Hosea also went hunting for a Legendary bear , although they failed to kill him together, and they went fishing with Dutch where they shared anecdotes about their past together. Hosea often calls for Arthur's backing when he is having disputes with Dutch, and even with some fellow gang members such as Bill.
He also taught Arthur how to read, along side Dutch. Hosea summed up his relationship with Dutch and Arthur as "the curious couple with their unruly child. Enraged over Hosea's death, Arthur and the gang proceed to kill several Pinkertons before escaping. At camp Hosea is one of the gang members Arthur can play Dominoes with. Hosea can request Arthur to find him American Ginseng and in return he will leave a bottle of Potent Medicine beside his tent.
He can also ask him to find a book called "Shrew in the Fog" and will regularly provide Arthur with predator bait at his tent. Hosea can occasionally come up to Arthur and talk to him around camp. Arthur and Bill were originally on good terms and worked well together, but due to the latter's recklessness and stupidity Arthur would often hold Bill in poor regards. This is first highlighted early in the story when Bill has the job of planting explosives when the gang intends to rob a train, however, the explosives fail to detonate and the crew is forced to improvise.
Arthur would begin to make jokes at Bill's expense over this. Nonetheless, Arthur still sees Bill as a capable member of the gang and continued to bring him along on heists, such as when Uncle reveals he has a lead on a stagecoach, and the two often work surprisingly well together. Arthur is also willing to take part in Bill's plans, like robbing the bank in Valentine. Bill would try and rib Arthur for the shootout that occurred in Valentine that put a temporary halt on his, and Karen 's, plan to rob the bank.
Highlighting that when Arthur messes up it is just "one of them things. Their relationship, however, is soured when Bill unintentionally lures Arthur, Sean and Micah into an ambush that ends with Sean being killed.
Bill is shocked when he sees that Arthur is losing faith in Dutch and tells Arthur, whilst robbing some dynamites in Van Horn , that he believes he has gone soft. He admits that he respected Arthur once before, but he now considers Arthur, along with John and Charles , traitors and hopes they get whats coming to them. He further demonstrates his hostility by calling Arthur a turncoat after Bill goes at Abigail and Uncle. Arthur points out that he is loyal and Bill is too dumb to realise the reality of the situation.
He also points his gun at the pair, although doesn't try to chase them down after the Pinkertons interrupt. At the camp Bill can ask Arthur for some hair pomade and in return will leave Arthur repeater ammo beside his tent.
Bill is another gang member who doesn't try to talk to Arthur around camp. Arthur and Javier have respect for each other and worked together to rescue John when he had gone missing. They both robbed a homestead and went fishing together, with Javier providing some tips and bait to help Arthur's fishing woes. But after their return from Guarma Javier starts to lose respect for Arthur because he has lost faith in Dutch , this is highlighted when Arthur tries to talk Javier about Dutch's erratic behaviour only for him to brush it off and refuse to talk, stating he has nothing to say to him whilst simultaneously questioning Arthur's loyalty.
At one point he makes it clear that he only thinks Arthur is around for money instead of loyalty to the gang, or Dutch. Arthur retorts that if he only cared about money he would be long gone. He begins to notice that Javier is having a hard time taking in everything that has happened to the gang, as he constantly questions the loyalty of Abigail , Charles , Uncle and even John. Whilst at camp Javier can ask Arthur to find him some Oleander , and in return he will regularly leave throwing knives at his tent.
At camp Javier doesn't go up to Arthur for random conversations. Arthur openly dislikes Micah because of his negative influence on the gang , and Dutch specifically. His tendency to engage in extreme violence, such as when Arthur rescues him in Strawberry and Micah massacres the whole town to retrieve his " precious guns " irks Arthur greatly, seeing him as someone that cannot keep his head in tense situations.
Despite their poor relationship, the two work well enough together to get a job done. Arthur is aware of Micah's skills as a fighter and shooter, and Micah appears to respect Arthur for his shooting abilities in return, as well as saying that he finds it "fun" riding with Arthur. However, Micah's skill as a shooter perhaps makes Arthur even more concerned about his influence on Dutch. Arthur is often vocal, and scornful, about the things Micah does around camp such as ridiculing Swanson , taunting Javier , Lenny and Charles because they are a different race, harassing Abigail at camp and even kicking Jack's dog, Cain.
Arthur's dislike of Micah grew when he took advantage of Hosea 's death to get close to Dutch and have a greater influence on him. Once it becomes apparent that Arthur is sick, through his persistent coughing, Micah starts to regularly mock him and refers to him as "black lung". Before Arthur's illness, Micah rarely tried to annoy Arthur and often tried to be friendly with Arthur, respecting him and likely wishing that they could be friends. At one point Micah tells Arthur, when he needed his help, that he looked up to him, however he was very likely lying given the circumstances.
Micah eventually begins to gain some superiority over Arthur and the other members through his closeness with Dutch. Micah convinces Dutch that Arthur and John have become disloyal which begins to strain Arthur's, and the gang's, relationship with Dutch.
Later, Arthur learns that Micah is a rat and has been talking to the Pinkertons since their return from Guarma , infuriating Arthur to such an extent that, instead of running away with Abigail and Sadie, he confronts Micah at the camp and holds him at gunpoint to proclaim to everyone that he is a traitor. Regardless of the player's choices, Arthur and Micah will have one last fight, either a knife fight or a fistfight. If Arthur does decide to go back for the "money", it is likely that he instead wished to have one last showdown with Micah, evidenced by the fact that he will shout his name and ask him to show himself, even admitting that he went for the money because of "unfinished business" he had with him, showing the intense hatred between the two.
In the fight, Micah will say that he has been waiting a long time to kill Arthur, and will do so, if the player's honor is low. If the player has high honor, Micah will instead leave Arthur to die. At camp Arthur cannot really have pleasant interactions with Micah and no matter what the player does, every conversation devolves into sarcastic disputes between the two.
Micah is one of the camp members Arthur can play Five Finger Fillet with. He will also occasionally come up to Arthur for a chat, often with the intent of being semi-friendly although Micah instead decides to taunt and Arthur by the time he has tuberculosis , but Arthur usually brushes him off and never wishes to talk to Micah. Arthur grew close to Lenny after the two got drunk together in Valentine after Dutch tells him to show Lenny a good time.
They also pulled jobs together, such as robbing the bank in Valentine and stealing a wagon full of weapons and explosives from the Lemoyne Raiders at Shady Belle , it was because of this job that the gang knew of Shady Belle and could use it as their next camping spot.
Lenny's performance and competency impressed Arthur to such an extent that he declares he will ride with Lenny anytime. When Lenny revealed his concern at being so far south in Lemoyne because of its history of racism, having been filled with slave plantation farms before the war, Arthur expressed his sympathy and acknowledged that it couldn't be easy for him.
However, Arthur would reassure Lenny that he has friends and that he should not try to impress everyone in the gang because the people that matter himself, Dutch and Hosea are aware of the effort he puts in. During a botched bank job in Saint Denis Lenny is shot and killed whilst the gang tries to escape across the rooftops.
Arthur takes a moment over his body, mourning the loss of his friend. Arthur saw Lenny as a very bright kid and talented member of the gang, he would often stand up for Lenny whenever Micah taunted him. Lenny can request Arthur to find him a pocket watch and in return will leave Arthur a stick of dynamite at his tent. Lenny does not come up to Arthur for a spontaneous chat around camp. Sean was like the annoying younger brother to Arthur.
He would often insult and berate him for his over exuberant mannerisms. He viewed Sean as a lowly member of the gang due to being prone to mistakes, such as when John , Sean, Arthur and Charles were robbing a train and Sean got himself pistol whipped.
However, Arthur and Sean would banter over this incident. Before the job starts, Sean antagonises Arthur by telling him he should sleep with his eyes open for mocking him, Arthur quickly, and rather aggressively, tells Sean he'll be sleeping with his chest open if he is not careful.
Sean backs down and tells Arthur that he loves him, perhaps genuinely so, because of his no nonsense approach. After the failed job at Blackwater , Sean got himself captured and whilst being handed over to a group of bounty hunters Arthur, Javier and Charles, with help from Trelawny , saved him. Sean interpreted this as proof that Arthur and the gang missed him with Arthur not wholeheartedly disputing this.
Arthur would help Sean when robbing a small cabin and when they set fire to the Gray Family 's fields. Arthur later compliments Sean for his performance when destroying the fields.
Though Sean frequently annoyed Arthur, he was greatly saddened when Sean was killed in an ambush by the Grays, affectionately saying what fun times they had together and that he never realised how much he actually cared about him until he was dead. He held Bill in slight contempt for his recklessness that led to Sean being killed. Sean is another member of the gang who doesn't have spontaneous conversations with Arthur around camp.
Arthur was Leopold Strauss' strongman when he loaned out money to desperate people. This line of work, although lucrative, disgusted Arthur and would often bemoan Strauss' habit of loaning to people he very well knew could not pay the debt back.
Strauss", or on some occasions, "Herr Strauss". Arthur would often engage in polite conversation with Strauss and would save him in Valentine when he, along with John , were held at gunpoint by Leviticus Cornwall 's men. Strauss was shot in the leg in this encounter and Arthur, John and Dutch worked to get him to safety.
Should Arthur have completed most of the debt missions, and depending on the his decisions in the last two, Arthur, who by this point has gained a higher sense of morality, confronts Strauss and kicks him out of the camp. Strauss protests this by saying the sick delude themselves, a reference to Arthur's worsening illness, and that he was Arthur's friend. Arthur retorts that although he and Strauss are not good men, the people who Strauss was loan sharking to were.
He tells Strauss to get a job and gives him some money to leave, with Strauss doing so, never to be seen again. At camp Strauss never had random conversations with Arthur and instead would be seen working on his ledger or reading the paper at his tent.
Arthur pitied Swanson's proclivity for drunkenness. He was often quick to point out this poor habit and the foolish situations he got himself into, forcing Arthur, at one point, to save him from getting killed by an oncoming train after he gets his foot stuck in the tracks. As times goes on Swanson gets his act together and becomes sober, surprising even Arthur. He decides to leave the gang and, should Arthur not help the nun in Saint Denis, will meet Swanson at the train station after dropping off Captain Monroe.
Arthur will ask Swanson questions about his decision to leave with him trying to explain himself. Depending on Arthur's honour level he will either get the dialogue option where Swanson reassures Arthur to keep fighting and to never change, and ultimately accept his flaws. The alternative dialogue will have Swanson tell Arthur that he is a good person who should, and will, save the right people with what little time he has left.
The two then bid each other farewell, with mutual respect, this being the last time they see each other. Throughout the game, at camp, Swanson often goes to Arthur to speak about his tendency to drink too much and his insecurities about the events taking place, asking Arthur at one point if the Pinkertons are finally going to kill them, Arthur responds that they probably will with Swanson expressing his worry.
Initially, Arthur was antagonistic, and arguably cruel, towards Kieran because he had originally been an O'Driscoll at the time Arthur captured him. At the start of the story Kieran is held prisoner by the gang and was mostly tied to a tree. However, Kieran gives up details on a possible whereabouts of Colm O'Driscoll and Dutch decides that he should go along with Arthur, John and Bill to show them where.
Once the gang arrives and finds the area crawling with O'Driscolls a shootout begins that ends with all the O'Driscolls being killed. Arthur goes to check on the cabin only to be surprised and held at gun point, however, Kieran saves his life by shooting the O'Driscoll first. Because Kieran saved Arthur he was granted camp freedom and had the job of caring for the horses. Arthur never showed his gratitude for Kieran openly, and whenever Kieran mentions it Arthur responds that they are even because he allows another day to go buy without killing him.
In reality, however, Arthur was thankful for Kieran saving his life. He becomes more friendly to him and now refers to him as "O'Driscoll" in jest rather than out of scorn. When Kieran invites Arthur on a fishing trip he opens up about his past and reveals that his parents died from cholera when he was young and ended up joining the O'Driscoll Boys, albeit reluctantly.
Arthur comforts him and tells him that he no longer has to worry about being alone again. He goes missing for a while when the gang moves to Shady Belle and his body soon turns up at camp on top of his horse with his decapitated head in his hands and his eyes poked out. This is followed by an assault on the gang's hideout by the O'Driscolls. Arthur is filled with remorse over this, with Kieran having saved his life once but Arthur having been unable to save his.
At camp, Kieran never goes up to Arthur to engage in a conversation. He will, however, ask Arthur for some Burdock Roots in order to help the horses he is caring for, in return he will leave Horse Medicine at Arthur's tent. Arthur, along with Dutch and Micah , rescued Sadie early on in the story when the O'Driscoll Boys ransacked her home and killed her husband. Micah was initially aggressive towards her but Dutch and Arthur were able to calm her and take her back to camp.
She took time to adjust to her new life with the Van der Linde gang and would mostly be with Abigail. Arthur was one of the first to welcome Sadie into the group and he would try to offer his condolences for what she has been through, with Sadie mostly pushing Arthur away.
When she got caught up in an argument with Pearson , the camp's cook, whilst working for him, Arthur intervened and Sadie explained that she and her husband would share all the work, rather than being given only domestic, household work.
Arthur empathized with her and decided to take her out with him to collect supplies. On the way back to camp they were bushwhacked by the Lemoyne Raiders. It was here Sadie proved herself, being completely fearless and dominant in the shootout. This clearly impressed Arthur as he would later admit as much to Lenny , saying that she did "Fine, more than fine, in fact.
They bonded over jokes about Pearson and his letter to his aunt that he asked them to deliver, with Sadie mocking his false claims about traversing the world, far and wide, and that although he has yet to marry he is not short of suitors. Their bond further grew as Sadie continued to prove herself as a fearless gunslinger, such as when the O'Driscolls assaulted Shady Belle , she disobeyed Arthur's orders to get inside the manor and instead slaughtered dozens of enemies.
After Arthur, Dutch, Javier , Bill and Micah return from Guarma , Arthur is surprised to discover that it was Sadie who rounded up the gang members after the failed bank job in Saint Denis and got them to safety and have since been waiting for them to return.
This gains both his and Dutch's admiration and respect, to the point where even Dutch reprimanded Bill for not respecting Sadie. Arthur and Sadie worked on jobs with each other, specifically rescuing John from prison. She enjoys Arthur's company and was amused when she surprised him with a hot air balloon to scout the prison yard from the air.
They successfully broke John out of prison but at the same time annoyed Dutch for disobeying his orders, however, Sadie's loyalty is to Arthur and isn't too fazed by Dutch's frustration with them. Sadie builds up enough trust in Arthur that she asks for his help to hunt the last of the O'Driscoll Boys, bluntly telling Arthur that he is the only one out of all the fools in the gang she trusts.
Should the player accept, Arthur will attack the ranch. The fight ends with Sadie killing the O'Driscoll's last leader and opening up to him about how much she misses her husband. Here she also admits to Arthur that, aside from her husband, Arthur is the best man she has ever known.
