Emily Ross

 is a Minor character featured in Red Dead Redemption. She appears in the Stranger side-mission "Remember My Family".

Background
She is the wife of Bureau of Investigation agent Edgar Ross. As far as her character is concerned, Emily appears to be a rather matronly, kind and somewhat worrisome elderly woman. It is clear she cares for her husband very much.

Interactions
Emily makes her first and last appearance in the final mission of the game, when Jack Marston sets out to find Edgar Ross. The government agent Jack first talks to in Blackwater directs him to Ross' cabin out on Lake Don Julio, where he is spending his retirement years with his wife. Jack first meets Emily on the cabin's porch, where she vents her worries to him about her husband. Jack asks where Ross is now and Emily tells him that he had gone duck hunting with his brother down by the San Luis River. Before leaving, Jack somewhat ominously assures Emily the he's sure her husband will be "just fine", foreshadowing Ross' imminent fate.

Trivia

 * The protagonist can kill Emily without failing the stranger task (this can also be done by shooting the lamp above her head for a more cruel death).
