Carlos is a minor character featured in Red Dead Redemption.
History[]
Background[]
Carlos lives in El Matadero in 1911 and works as a butcher and operator of the local slaughterhouse. His willingness to help rescue a dissident from Army custody, despite the fact that doing so means risking his own life, suggests that he is either sympathetic to the cause of the rebels or has been secretly aiding them.
Events of Red Dead Redemption[]
Carlos appears during the mission "Landon Ricketts Rides Again". Landon Ricketts and John Marston are told to look for him in connection to the abduction of Luisa Fortuna by the Mexican Army for questioning.
Once they meet him, Carlos agrees to take Ricketts and Marston to the caves where Luisa is being kept. He successfully distracts the soldiers guarding the entrance, allowing the pair to enter and free Luisa. Upon the mission's completion, Carlos takes Luisa back home on horseback. He is never seen again in the story after that, and his ultimate fate is unknown.
Undead Nightmare[]
Carlos briefly appears during the opening cutscene of "Biographies and Lies," where he is saved from the Undead by Ricketts.

Trivia[]
- Carlos angers the guards and draws them away by telling them that they have "pretty boots" and that his sister has the same pair.
- Carlos lures the guards away from El Matadero, running northwards. Eventually the three men stop at a small camp south of Mesa del Sol.
- After rescuing Luisa from her cell, Marston and Ricketts make for the entrance. They find three horses, left by Carlos for their escape. Presumably the third is for Luisa, even though she is actually unconscious and is stowed on Rickett's horse.
