Victor Melendez

 is a Minor character featured in Red Dead Redemption.

Background
Victor is a rebel fighting for Abraham Reyes. He is the most involved rebel of the lot and appears in multiple missions in both minor and supporting roles.

Red Dead Redemption
Victor is first encountered after John Marston rescues Abraham Reyes from his execution. He meets Marston as soon as they leave El Presidio. He leads John and Abraham to the docks where Luisa Fortuna is waiting.

Victor is seen again discussing a tactic with Abraham Reyes at the Rebel camp at Agave Viejo before Reyes and Marston leave.

He is then encountered leading the rebels along with Marston to take down Captain Vincente de Santa at Sepulcro; he and his men assist John in killing De Santa's soldiers, and he then tells John that De Santa is running away while they are still fighting. John recovers De Santa and beats him to hear the location of Javier Escuella. When finished, he asked Marston if he and his men can kill De Santa or if he would like to do it himself. The two of them then ride to Casa Madrugada where De Santa told them Javier Escuella would be. It turns out to be an army trap. They hold out against the attacks and eventually succeed.

He is last 'officially seen' after Reyes and Marston kill Bill Williamson and Colonel Agustin Allende. It is unknown if he survived the revolution at the capital but it is likely because he can still be seen in Escalera.

Undead Nightmare
In Undead Nightmare, despite his involvement in the rebel movement and his belief that he was helping the Mexican people, Victor can commonly be seen attempting to rob survivors of their supplies out of desperation. He can be allowed to go through with his robbery, which usually ends in him murdering his victim. However, if the player chooses, he can be hogtied or killed in order to stop his robbery.

He can also be seen as the survivor leader in Nosalida, where he will be standing at the end of one of the docks, fending off the Undead despite an ammo shortage. After the town has been cleared, he may be found sitting around a campfire with the other survivor. He can be heard sarcastically noting that the reign of Abraham Reyes has not got off to a good start.
