My favourite random citizens? Oh, I've got quite a few. First off, I must agree that Carnelious Wolfe is the most badass character in Red Dead Redemption. But I've got a few other badasses you missed:

1 - Diarmuid O'Keefe

Badass Irishman, often seen in the pubs of Blackwater and especially Thieves' Landing. He gambles, fights, frequents the brothel, and is always ready to insult anyone close enough to hear him. He talks tough, and puts up quite the fight. Plus, he's bloody Irish!

2 - Gus McCallum

This guy is the epitome of a badass. Fresh off the boat from Scotland, he roams the West in search of a good place to get piss drunk and gamble. Get in a fight with this guy, and you're "messin' with a mad Scotsman!"

3 - Jacques Billeray

Toughest Frenchman in all the West. Shoot him dead in the streets of Blackwater, he'll challenge you to a fight at MacFarlane's Ranch. Not only that, but when the dead overrun Thieves' Landing, what does he do? He only takes command of the survivors there and holds off the undead hordes!

4 - Grady Underwood

You may see Grady window-shopping in Blackwater, or walking to the saloon at Armadillo, and he appears normal enough. However, as one mission showed us, this guy is an awesome gangster. First off, he's part of a gang. Second, they're based in Thieves' Landing. Third, he interrogates people. With his fists. None of this 'asking questions' bollocks. He'll punch you 'till you tell him what he wants.

5 - Randy Haskins

We've got a budding philosopher here! He lives in Manzanita Post, sleeps in a tent, chops wood, hunts, and then finishes the day by resting on a bench and spouting philosophical sayings. You may overhear him question society's use of money, or proclaim that the government won't bring any good. That's just a portion of Randy's wisdom.

And, as an added bonus:

6 - Reid Kinsey

He plays the piano at the Armadillo saloon, got in a fight with Walton's Gang, and now cowardly resides in Armadillo. Shoot at him, and he'll flee in terror. Swing a fist at him, and he'll flee in terror. Knock over a chair, and - take a guess at what he'll do. Such an outstanding man definitely deserves some form of recognition!
