Arthur Morgan

Arthur Morgan is a character and the main playable protagonist of the video game ''Red Dead Redemption 2''. A high-ranking member of the Van der Linde gang, Arthur deals with the decline of the Wild West while attempting to survive against government forces and other adversaries in a fictionalized representation of the American frontier. He is portrayed by Roger Clark through performance capture.

Rockstar Games decided to focus the game on one character to follow him more personally, finding it more appropriate for a Western's narrative structure. Subverting narrative tropes, Arthur begins strong and has his worldview challenged. Clark wanted to play Arthur in a manner complex enough for the player to choose any path and still make sense. He took inspiration from actors such as Toshiro Mifune, John Wayne, and Rob Wiethoff, who played John Marston in the game and its predecessor.

Arthur received acclaim from critics, with his complexity and path to redemption most frequently the subject of praise. Reviewers lauded him for bringing the world and other characters to life, and ranked him among the most iconic video game characters. For his work, Clark accrued numerous nominations and was awarded Best Performance at the Game Awards. Provided by Wikipedia
