Notatki gracza
Skinner Brothers to wędrowna grupa zabójców i szabrowników, polująca na zwierzęta oraz ludzi. Przemieszczają się między prymitywnymi obozami, które zakładają sami albo odbierają ofiarom. Pieniądze niewiele ich obchodzą, a od osiadłego społeczeństwa trzymają się z dala. Noszą zniszczone ubrania, często mają długie, zaniedbane brody. Ich napady wiążą się z torturami i okaleczaniem, w tym ze skalpowaniem, obdzieraniem ze skóry i rozczłonkowywaniem. W 1898 roku pojawiają się w Ambarino w Red Dead Online. Do 1905 roku działają w Tall Trees, West Elizabeth.
Gdy John Marston zaczyna budowę Beecher's Hope, Charles Smith mówi, że Skinners od około dwóch lat terroryzują Tall Trees. W "The Tool Box" urządzają zasadzkę na Johna, Charlesa i wynajętych robotników nieopodal Manzanita Post. Mężczyźni odpierają atak, po czym znajdują martwego strażnika, Willarda Wayne'a, z nożem wbitym w oko. Charles grzebie Willarda, a następnie wraca z Johnem i Uncle'em do Beecher's Hope, by rozpocząć budowę rancza.
Po ukończeniu domu Skinners atakują ponownie w "Uncle's Bad Day". Porywają Uncle'a i przypalają mu plecy nad otwartym ogniem. John i Charles tropią grupę do jej obozu, zabijają porywaczy i odwożą Uncle'a do domu. Charles uważa, że poniesione straty powinny odsunąć Skinners od rancza. John może później ścigać Otisa Skinnera i Eliasa Greena jako cele listów gończych, zabić ich albo dostarczyć żywych do Blackwater, gdzie jeńcy zostają powieszeni. Gang pozostaje aktywny około 1907 roku.
Ciekawostki
- ◆The Skinner Brothers perform sadistic acts on their victims similar to that of the Murfree Brood gang which are located in Roanoke Ridge, as well as the Night Folk, found across Bayou Nwa and Bluewater Marsh in Lemoyne. All three gangs horrifically mutilate, torture and murder their victims and often attack and kill people seemingly just for the enjoyment of it.
- ◆Many members of the Skinner Brothers wear similar clothing to Dutch's Gang in Red Dead Redemption; some are also of native origin, which further adds to the similarities. Additionally, the Skinners are endemic to Tall Trees, which is where Dutch is mentioned to have been sighted and later operates his gang in.
- ◆Unlike other outlaw gangs, the Skinner Brothers don't have a main hideout that players can attack.
- ◆The Skinner Brothers are unique in they are the only characters besides Charles Smith, Eagle Flies, the Night Folk and the player character to use bows - many of their victims are seen with multiple arrows embedded into them and they often fight the player using bows rather than guns. Aside from this, their camps can be recognized by gruesome decorations, such as hanging corpses, mutilated bodies, scattered human parts, and blood trails.
- ◆In addition to the rogue hunters, the Skinner brothers have a large number of Indians (probably exiled from their tribes) who see many of them and use their bows.
- ◆If the player kills a lot of the Skinner Brothers in Red Dead Redemption 2, they will actually fear the player, who can overhear them sharing their worries in their enemy camps, saying things such as "He can slit us in our sleep for all we know".
- ◆The Skinner Brothers are most likely based on the Harpe brothers, a pair of serial killers and gang members from the early American frontier, who also mutilated their victims.
- ◆Borodin's Gang, encountered in the Yukon Nik Borodin legendary bounty mission in Red Dead Online share the same PED models and dialogue as members of the Skinner Brothers.
- ◆Despite Charles Smith's comment in "Uncle's Bad Day" stating that the gang arrived in Tall Trees two years prior to 1907, they can be encountered as enemies in the region as well as the Great Plains in Red Dead Online.
- ◆In the telegram mission "Strange Tales of The Wilderness," they have a very large fort in Tall Trees. It does not appear outside of the mission, despite it's large size.
- ◆If one can overhear the Skinners' conversations without being noticed, as well as through special mods (thanks to a player who is investigating the game's mysteries), it becomes clear that their actions, although brutal, are also being directed by someone, even though they are consciously committing their crimes. For example, they talk about a "man in a hat" who is not always pleased with their "harvest," and they try to please him. If this is likely to be the Strange Man, it suggests that he has influenced or enchanted them to hunt humans. (It is possible that they were early trappers, but now they have changed their "target" for hunting, just like the former residents of Bayou Nwa, who became members of the "Night Gang" and did not touch the hut of a Strange Man.)
