Characters in Redemption

Characters in Red Dead Redemption all possess different personalities, habits and individual routines. Despite the fact that in the game the era known as the "wild" West is coming to an end, most of the characters seem to retain most of the traits, values, and personalities that are synonymous with this period. John Marston meets and interacts with a variety of different characters in the game. IM A TUMOR

Characters are classified into these categories

Central Characters: These are characters without whom the story would not even occur. They transcend any particular section of the story because they have a larger overall importance due to their actions before the story begins.

Major Characters: All of the folks the player will interact with that move the story forward - these are the mission-givers.

Supporting Characters: These are characters that have a larger role in the story but not quite to the level of a mission-giver.

Minor Characters: Characters that play very little part in the story or are unnecessary to meet to move the story forward.
