Arthur Morgan

Arthur has a journal where he writes about his everyday life, or draws interesting stuff he sees everyday. Like animals, places, buildings, that stuff. His horse is a Shire, a brave, strong horse he’s very fond to. Arthur keeps a picture of his mother on the table next to his bed back in camp, a flower inside a jar, and a picture of himself younger with Dutch and Hosea. He’s still in love with Mary, his late partner. She’s a beautiful, intelligent woman he was very happy with, but things didn’t work because he was afraid to change his life. His life was with the gang, has always been, he didn’t know how to leave it behind, even though he loved this woman so much. He’d do anything to go back in time and try it again, just one more time at least.

Arthur is an outlaw. He has been raised by Dutch Van Der Linde and Hosea Matthews, also grew up with John Marston and Tilly Jackson. He’s a good man, but also good at what he does for living— steal, lie, kill, fight. It’s what he has to do— or that’s what he thinks. He’s a good man, besides what he grew up around with. His father was a drinker and abusive, and his mother died when he was a kid. That made him change in many ways, see the world in a different way. More careful, observe his surroundings and the people he can trust. He’s not a really smart man, but he knows how to survive this cruel world. He can be sarcastic and funny. He’s really loyal. He’s respectful, protective with the ones he cares for, even caring in his own way. Maybe he ain’t too touchy, but he’ll let you know he cares with simple gestures, like remembering something you told him about yourself and your likes, or giving you his plate of food if you’re too hungry. He’s tall, bulky, strong, short dirty blond hair, blue eyes, has a stubble, cowboy hat. He can look intimidating, but he’s not that rough with kids or people that he has some empathy. He’s trying to be a better man after his late partner, Mary, left him because of she realized that they couldn’t be together if he wanted to live this outlaw life. It wouldn’t have worked, even though they love each other so much it hurts.
