In Red Dead Redemption and Red Dead Redemption 2, one of the biggest mysteries has been the identity of the strange man. A mysterious and other character, the strange man appears for the first time in rdr1, knowing somehow a lot about John Mars ton and the past of him with the band of Van Her Linde. Naturally, this takes John with his guard low, since he has no idea who the character is. In Red Dead Redemption 2, the strange man appears again, and the cameo of him is even stranger. [Spoilers Ahead].

During the epilogue, playing as John, players can visit an abandoned hut with unfinished painting. As players visit this place again, the painting is slowly filled until it shows a portrait of the strange man, which then appears behind John in the mirror, however, when John turns around, there is no one there. Beyond this, there are some NPC dialogues that inside the character, but that's it.

Who is the strange man, Rockstar Games has not yet revealed it, but a player believes he has discovered it, and the theory is wild, but surprisingly convincing. About Reddit, a publication has become viral for arguing that the strange man is Cain of the Bible, condemned to walk on earth by eternity, marked by God for everyone to recognize him.

Then the following evidence / speculation is provided:

After killing his brother Abel, Cain is marked by God, so that everyone recognizes him, and anyone who hurts him will have a revenge on them seven times. That's why John Mars ton recognizes him, but he can not say where, and it's also the reason something else, more about that later. He was the first murderer, that's why in rdr2, if he photographs his house, the image will be titled serial killer. The strange man seems to have an incalculable amount of life experience, which would make sense if he was Cain, since he would have been alive since before Noah's flood. That is why he seems to know everything. The town of Tumbleweed is abandoned, which could be due in part to the presence of it. He is condemned to roam the earth for eternity, and God even says: When you cultivate the Earth, you will no longer give you your strength; You will be a vagabond and a vagabond on earth. Cain is damn, it brings death and misfortune to anyone with whom he interacts, and he is condemned to roam the earth for eternity. When John Mars ton says Tell me your name, or I will not be responsible for my actions, he answers Oh, but you will. You will be responsible ». This could be a reference to the curse of it and how John Mars ton faces him. When John Mars ton says Damn Seas! He answers yes, many have done it. He is condemned to walk on the ground for eternity, so this answer has perfect sense. After this, John Mars ton shoots him 3 times. In the Bible, it is said that those who seek to destroy Cain will have a seven-time revenge. When John Mars ton meets him, shooting about 21 times, 7 times the bullets that he shot the strange man.

Based on the theory, Reddit's user, Basketball juice, continues noting that Cain is also the name of Jack Mars ton's dog, which, well, is a very interesting name to give a dog.

For now, all this is pure and absolute speculation, but it is, by far, the best theory of a strange man so far.
