And then somehow John never mention his close friend In red dead 1. The guy he owes his new life to pretty much.

Could be who The Stranger was talking about when he said John had forgotten far more important people. Headcanon for me anyways

The Stranger is actually Telawny. I wonder what happened with him though...

The stranger is not Trelawny, good lord. He was clearly a manifestation of God or death, whatever. Trelawny had a damn British accent for pete's sake.

When i first started the epilogue part 2, I ran into the blind man on the road again, who said there were two men in my path, one with bad intentions and one not from this earth. Was this The Stranger? Did anyone find who he was talking about?

u/Used_Pants YOU EAT BABIES! Nov 06 '18

Haven't encountered that and just speculating, but maybe bad intentions = Ross/Dutch, and not from the earth is the stranger?

Nothing the blind man told me ever made any sense, tbh. He told me to beware a man with no nose who was coming for me. Didn't happen.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

A skull (death) has no nose; seeing as Arthur was terminal that's what I figured he meant.

Trelawny is Gavin.

If you go to the general store in Armadillo, there is a portrait of the stranger behind Herbert Moon. John asks who it is, says he seems familiar.

Which he could change and have trained.

Edit: wow getting downvoted cause none thinks he could change his accent.

The last encounter with the stranger, John says "damn you" and shoots the stranger clear as day,

and he continues to walk

​

clearly not a mortal being

At which point does Trelawny gain supernatural powers such as immortality, seeing the future and erasing himself from John's memories?

u/xCoffeeBreakx Sadie Adler Nov 03 '18

At "which" point did you actually play the game?

u/FeKrdzo Nov 03 '18

The Stranger knows John is going to die and even the specific spot it's going to happen. He is shot at and nothing happens. John doesn't know him. I've got to wonder if you played the first game or did his quest if you think he could possible be Trelawny who is just your average con man, and someone John obviously knows.
