Charles Kinnear

Charles Kinnear is a supporting character in Red Dead Redemption. John Marston (or Jack Marston) found him in Mexico near Roca de Madera with an incomplete glider. He had come to this location to test the glider but needed some more parts to complete it. Fetching the parts completed the stranger quest "Deadalus and Son". He requires 5 Beaver fur, 20 bird feathers (of any type, in any combination), and 10 red sage.

Upon fetching the materials for the glider Kinnear enthusiastically thanks Marston for his contributions. The player is instructed to return to the spot a few days later.

When Marston meets Kinnear again, with a now completed glider, Kinnear presents Marston with a small spiel about the inborn ability of birds to fly and the difficulty man has of replicating it. He gives John a final thumbs up, screaming "into the wild blue yonder, Marston!" before leaping off the cliff-face laughing maniacally only to quickly discover his glider was not properly constructed, after a final isolated gasp 'oh dear' he crashes into the ground below. Though his corpse is not found in the wreck of the glider he most assuredly died on impact.
