Rdr2 Bessie Headcanons - Tumblr Posts

So I got bored... Again.

My headcanon for Bessie is that She was an orphan who worked in the factories just to get by. She eventually had to quit her job in her 30s due to her health rapidly deteriorating, which led to her moving out into the middle of the woods. Her health made a recovery being away from the factory, and she started to write books about research she did on America's wildlife to get some money, but eventually decided to live a life constantly moving from one place to another, living off the land while documenting new things she discovered. She was especially interested in birds. I imagine one day She was just minding over own business at her campsite in the Grizzlies, when Hosea suddenly rides by, being chased by some bounty hunters. And Bessie offers to help hide him until the bounty hunters leave.

She wasnt in the best health, but she thrived out in the wilderness, away from society. And was the sweetest person to be around.

Hosea and Bessie were 100% the sweetest couple.... the sweetest couple who is very capable of either robbing you of everything you have or killing you.

I just wanted to ramble about this; I hate the design I gave Bessie. Its fine, but It doesent really give off the vibe I want her to have. Also that hairstyle is 🤢

Also, I realized her backstory doesent make sense. Atleast not to me.

Trying to redesign her again, but she's being difficult so it might take a few days considering I also have to work and my motivation for drawing has been pretty bad for years (hence why I can only finish headshots)
