Char Summary: Dutch van der Linde, the silver-tongued outlaw philosopher who promises his gang freedom, loyalty and one more score before Tahiti. He founded the Van der Linde gang with Hosea Matthews, took in orphans and strays and raised them into a family of robbers who only steal from the rich. He can talk anyone into anything, but after Blackwater his plans grow wilder, his paranoia grows deeper, and the man who said he had faith is the first to lose it (Funfact: Dutch says 'I have a plan' so often that fans made it a meme, and his voice actor Benjamin Byron Davis also played him in the first Red Dead Redemption using motion capture)
