Colonel Henry Favours is a character and an antagonist in Red Dead Redemption 2.

History

Background

Henry Favours fought for the Union in the American Civil War, though rumor has it that his career was anything but successful, and his nickname implies that he ran from battle. At some point, he was stationed at Fort Wallace in Ambarino to oversee the Wapiti Indians.

Events of Red Dead Redemption 2

Colonel Favours and his men are stationed at Fort Wallace. They are withholding crucial supplies, and are harassing the Wapiti Indians in an attempt to drive them from their land, which is allegedly oil-rich

Favors eventually agrees to meet with Rains Fall to discuss peace terms. However, a gunfight unfolds shortly after Rains Fall leaves the negotiations, with Colonel Favours no-where to be seen.

He later commands the defense of Cornwall Kerosene & Tar, which is being assaulted by both the Wapiti Indians and the Van der Linde gang. When Eagle Flies saves Arthur from being killed by Favours' men, Favours himself makes a sudden appearance and fatally shoots Eagle Flies. The colonel, however, is promptly killed by Arthur mere seconds later.

Character

Personality

Favours is condescending and proud. While his underhanded treatment of the Wapiti Indians is at least partially motivated by Cornwall, it has also been suggested that Favours is trying to make up for his past inadequacies by goading the Indians into fighting, so he can have at least one successful battle under his belt before retirement.

Appearance

Favours is an old man with gray hair, a mustache, and chops.
