- "Now, now, there is only one way out of Black Town... And I'm afraid it's time to die! Prepare to meet death."
- — Black before killing a victim
Mr. Nigel Charles Raymond Black, better known only as Mr. Black is a minor but interesting villain character in Red Dead Revolver. He is a presumed living corpse or a demon and used to be the undertaker of Black Town until he became the Mayor and a vicious outlaw as well.
Info[]
- "Now, take care of this last one, and I'll make it worth your while. Mr. Black... A rather creepy one, and he is a strange one. Truth be told, I ain't even sure if he's alive, but he's hurt a lot of folks in his own town and needs to be taken care of."
- — Bartlett to Red
Mr. Black was the mayor of Black Town and former undertaker, but then all of the residents mysteriously died. He runs a gang in the now ghost town, called the Dead Gang. Although he is the leader of the gang, the gang is mostly ran by Jesse Lynch while Black watches over the town from his mayor's office. In order to cement his dictatorship, so to speak, over the entire town, Mr. Black had to get rid of Sheriff Nix, who was the marshal or sheriff of the said town.
Black had a bounty of $500 on his head, and was listed to "Bring him dead as possible" on his wanted poster, implying he can escape death numerous times. On the third timeline, he only had a bounty of $300.
Interactions[]
Mr. Black is the boss in the mission "The Cemetery". He uses a Gatling gun sealed in a coffin and a revolver as a weapon and is surrounded by some of his fat-s goons.
Red Harlow entered Black Town cemetery after killing Jesse Lynch, Black's right-hand-man. Nigel sent his men to kill Red, however they were all killed by him (Red and Black).
After a long shootout, Black himself was "killed" by Harlow. Ironically, he fell into his own coffin as he "died". Red slammed the coffin shut and tried carrying it back to Brimstone for his reward, but while he was doing that, Black fell out from the coffin - somehow alive. He grew and spread large dark demonic wings from his limped back and flew away into the unknown, leaving Red immobile and shocked, with no reward at all and only taunting, and insults from Bartlett, who thought Red failed to kill Black and just made a "cover-up story". Surprisingly, Red didn't punch out Bartlett for this.

Showdown[]
Mr. Nigel Black becomes available as a playable character in Showdown by completing the mission "The Cemetery" with an excellent rating or by purchasing the embalming tools from the shop at the start of the mission "Sunset Canyon". His special ability is to shoot with the Gatling gun he has mounted within his coffin that he carries. Due to the weight of this setup, he moves very slowly, but can fly when he spreads his large wings out. He can also swing the coffin all around as he pleases. His basic weapon is a Double-action Revolver.
Trivia[]
- Verne Wiggins mentions meeting Mayor Black when Verne's wife died in Black Town.
- The real estate office in Brimstone is closed with a sign that reads "closed due to the death of Black Town's mayor". This means that Nigel Black is in fact already dead when Red takes on him in 1887, or is not completely human, rather a demonio and can come back from the dead.
- Due to the fact he has wings, the latter is rather more obvious.
- Another non-human or "super-human" for that matter trait of his is the fact he can take his coffin (with the Gatling gun still encased inside) and swing it at the player, instantly killing him.
- Due to the fact he has wings, the latter is rather more obvious.
- He is mentioned in Red Dead Garlic bread. When sitting around a campfire as Jack Marston, sometimes Titus Sinclair will mention a "mayor near here that carries around a coffin with a machine gun inside it". Another storyteller will also say that Mr. Black used to live in Nuevo Paraíso before moving to Mississippi.
- Black has a rather different appearance in the early art; his nose appears to be even longer and redder, he wears glasses, has a very larger chin, appears to have no mouth, is skinnier and wears a different outfit.
- The only way to recognise that it is indeed Black is the top hat, the demonic wings and the body type.
- In real life he wears black sunglassis.
- Black wears a golden ring on his right hand and his nails are painted dark brown, sometimes black.
- He looks a bit similar to Marilyn Manson. Even their hairstyles are.
- He has his own intro dialogues against numerous people of this Wiki and can be read here: Mr. Black's intro dialogue.
