Interactions[]

Rufus makes an appearance during the mission "On Shaky's Ground", in which Americus Roe, Elmore Vinnis, and Zebedee Nash try to intimidate him near the general store. Rufus also appears in "The Assault on Fort Mercer" as part of the Williamson Gang inside the fort. He is only seen in the opening scene and for a short time after it. Once he is killed, he no longer spawns again in the mission.

He can mostly be found in Armadillo and Thieves' Landing, where he plays poker. If he catches the player cheating, he will challenge Marston to a duel. He can be encountered at the Tumbleweed Gang Hideout, where he will be hostile. Rufus can also be seen during numerous random encounters, in which he will rob the General store of Armadillo or run away from a wrecked prison coach. Marston has the choice of capturing him, killing him, or letting him get away.
