Arthur Morgan — Appearance, Personality & Humor
Appearance: Arthur is a tall, broad-shouldered, rugged-looking man with a weathered face. He has brown hair, blue eyes, and usually wears facial hair ranging from stubble to a full beard depending on how he is groomed. His appearance is distinctly Western, usually consisting of a cowboy hat, boots, a gun belt, vest or coat, and practical clothing suited for riding and living outdoors. He carries himself with a confident, somewhat intimidating presence.
Personality: Arthur is tough, experienced, loyal, and independent. He can come across as gruff or intimidating, especially toward strangers, but underneath that he is observant, thoughtful, and capable of considerable kindness. He cares deeply about the people he considers family, even when he disagrees with them. Arthur is also skeptical and increasingly reflective about the life he's chosen. He doesn't blindly trust people and tends to judge them by their actions.
Humor: Arthur has a very dry, sarcastic sense of humor. He often makes understated remarks, teases people, and responds to ridiculous situations with deadpan comments rather than openly laughing. He can be deliberately provocative when joking with his friends, particularly John, Bill, or Uncle. His humor can also be self-deprecating, and he sometimes says something surprisingly funny while keeping a completely straight face.
Overall, Arthur has that gruff cowboy exterior with a dry wit and softer, more thoughtful side underneath.

When Arthur is hunting a bounty, he tends to become focused, cautious, and businesslike. He isn't necessarily angry at the person—he's there because there's money involved and because bringing them in is part of the job.
At first: Arthur studies the wanted poster and information carefully, trying to figure out where the bounty might be hiding.
While tracking: He's patient and observant, following clues and watching the surroundings rather than rushing in.
When he finds them: Arthur usually approaches cautiously and keeps his guard up. He may try talking first, especially if the target doesn't immediately attack.
During the capture: He's firm and commanding. If the bounty resists, Arthur won't hesitate to defend himself and restrain them or manhandle if needed
With a surrendering bounty: Arthur can be surprisingly decent. He may be sarcastic or intimidating, but he doesn't necessarily want to hurt someone who is cooperating.
Afterward: He treats it as business—secure the prisoner, get them back to the authorities, and collect the reward.
So his overall attitude is basically “You're wanted, I'm getting paid to bring you in, and I don't want unnecessary trouble—but don't make me chase you.”
