History Characters / RedDeadRedemptionNewAustin

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: When John first asks for Marshal's help with getting Bill Williamson, Marshal states he can't at the moment, but only because there are many other criminals causing troubles, so the Marshal and his deputies have their hands full. After John assists them by tagging along and taking out outlaws with them, the lawmen finally have time to go after Williamson.

* TheSheriff: Leigh's a Marshal, but the trope more-or-less fits since. He's the head lawman of Armadillo.

* VagueAge: She says she's 27 in 1911 as does some official out-of-universe material, but one of the in-universe newspapers claim she's 29; as there's more mentions of the former and Bonnie would knows her own age more than a newspaper writer, it's assumed she's 27.

* ThoseTwoGuys: Jonah is introduced in a mission first, but when Eli is introduced in a later mission, they would always appear together from then on.

* TheSheriff: He's a Marshal, but the trope more-or-less fits.

Two deputies in Armadillo. They are loyal to Marshal Johnson and take part in a few New Austin missions.

* PoliticallyIncorrectHero: Jonah doesn't view Native Americans very fondly, though this is shown to mostly be ignorance, he's never met one, and all he's heard are that they are "savages".

A {{Rancher}} that helps out John in New Austin and later does business with him.

* AllLoveIsUnrequited: It's implied that by the last time she meets John, she develops a crush on him. However it seems that she's moved on by the epilogue, where it's stated that she's married.

Bonnie's father and the head of the [=MacFarlane=] ranch.

* FireForgedFriends: With John, especially after John saves his daughter from outlaws.

* AtLeastIAdmitIt: He knows full well that he's a swindling cheat and prides himself on his transparency, at least when customers aren't around.

** During the assault itself, Nigel bravely enters the fort (which is full of armed criminals) and makes one of his grandiose speeches, buying the rest of the group time to get prepared. When the firefight begins, Nigel is right alongside the others, firing a pistol without flinching.

* HiddenDepths: He might be a treasure-crazed, cadaver-befriending wretch, but he had a wife, kids and business before he went mad. It makes you wonder about the man before the map. And he shows a surprisingly honorable side when he holds up his end of the deal, helping John get into Fort Mercer even after [[spoiler: the treasure is discovered to be worthless to him]]. Granted, John wasn't going to let him back out regardless, but Seth didn't make any attempt to dispute it or skip town.

** [[spoiler: Ultimately subverted. A newspaper that can be read after the epilogue shows that he ended up finding treasure after all, and has returned to his family and reopened his business.]]

* YoungerThanTheyLook: You'd be forgiven for thinking he's maybe in his mid-late 40's or so. But he's actually around his ''late thirties''. All those months of digging graves and looking for treasure hasn't been kind to him.

* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: He's only ever referred to as "Irish".

* WithFriendsLikeThese: When John meets him for the first time, Irish is tortured and nearly killed by two other guys named Welsh and French. After John kills them, Irish thanks him and he later explains that those two people were his ''best friends''. Later on, Irish says that he has another friend named Shaky, but their conversations aren't friendly at all as Irish constantly makes fun of his stuttering while Shaky constantly swears at him.

* RobbingTheDead: In his search for treasure, Seth would loot graves to see if the corpses have anything useful in them. When John meets Seth for the first time, he's in the middle checking a deceased in a graveyard. In "A Gentle Drive with Friends", Seth stole several bodies before checking what they have, then throw each of the bodies away.

--> '''Irish''': ''You're an angry and a feck ugly man, [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre but not a bad one]]''.

* DamselInDistress: After "The Burning", Williamson's gang kidnaps Bonnie. In "Hanging Bonnie [=MacFarlane=]", the gang demand that the Marshal release one of their gang members, or else Bonnie will be raped and killed. John and the lawmen attempt to make the exchange. A fight breaks out, but the heroes fight off the gang, rescuing Bonnie.

* WithFriendsLikeThese: When John meets him for the first time, Irish is tortured and nearly killed by two other guys Welsh and French. After John kills them, Irish thanks him and he later explains that those two people were his ''best friends''. Later on, Irish says that he has another friend named Shaky, but their conversations aren't friendly at all as Irish constantly makes fun of his stuttering while Shaky constantly swears at him.

* SnakeOilSalesman: A classic example - though his tonic does actually make John's Deadeye go up, suggesting it may be RealAfterAll.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Subverted; while robbing a grave he expresses disgust at one of the corpses he exhumes [[BrotherSisterIncest laying with his sister]]... but that's just because he doesn't like women, full stop.

* RobbingTheDead: In his search for treasure, Seth would loot graves to see if the corpses have anything useful in them. When John meets Seth for the first time, he's in the middle checking a deceased in a graveyard. In one of his missions for John, Seth stole several bodies before checking what they have, then throw each of the bodies away.

* WhatTheHellHero: Considering Irish a hero is a bit of a stretch but he is on John's side. When John meets up with him at Thieves Landing, Irish is in the middle of harassing a pair of nuns with his gun. John gives Irish a vicious DopeSlap before calling him out on attempting to hurt the nuns.
* WithFriendsLikeThese: When John meets him for the first time, Irish is interrogated and nearly killed by two other guys(Welsh and French). After John kills them, Irish thanks him and he later explains that those two people were his ''best friends''. Later on, Irish says that he has another friend named Shaky, but their conversations don't come across as friendly at all as Irish constantly makes fun of his stuttering while Shaky constantly swears at him.
