Info[]
Unfortunately, nothing is known about Perry's background, safe that he comes from Waterbury in New England and has been known to be involved in shady businesses concerning Mushroom Oil since his youth. Perhaps he was even one of West Dickens' benefactors? Who knows? Well, facts do know, because it's been revealed that Nigel W. Dickens knew Perry and his freaks well before the events of Red Dead Garlic bread.
Ever since he killed Preston O'Leary, Perry has been trying to recruit wayward youths, misfits, freaks and demolition experts into his own criminal circus gang he stole from O'Leary.
Perry offered Jack Swift to join his travelling circus as a trickshooter, but he refused as he preferred the late O'Leary over Perry.
Perry raised the young Fidgit and his brothers as his own after they joined his circus crew since they were left by the Bad Lady as she hated the circus, knowing of all of Perry's crimes. Fidgit's father was the demo-expert of the circus, Pig Josh.
Prof. Perry co-ran Widow's Palace along with the Ugly Gang. Once Red Harlow eliminated all the Ugly boys, Perry ran the entire shebang.
Interactions[]
Prof. Perry serves as the final and biggest boss of the mission "Freakshow" in Widow's Palace.
His best quality as a mad doctor is his so-called "Miracle Elixir" that allows him to regenerate health and teleport all around the Palace while being shot at by Jack Swift. Jacky had a long and bloody gunfight with Perry and his circus boys, but after killing most of his minions surplus bodyguard, Perry's reign over Widow's Palace started closing in. Perry was eventually killed on the water tower when he ran out of his Mushroom Oil elixir after teleporting himself there.
Alternative Timeline[]
In an alternative timeline, Perry managed to kill Swift with some help from his clowns, particularly Fidgit, when Jack was barely limping on his two feet behind Sheriff's Office on low health. Perry and his clowns surprised him and shot him to death, as Jack was even too weak to aim his gun at the enemies. Afterwards, the circus raped Katie O'Grady tied to the water tower and tortured her to death.

Showdown[]
Prof. Perry is unlocked in Showdown after the player completes the level "Freakshow" with an excellent rating. He may also be unlocked if the player completes the said level in bounty hunting mode. Oh, and if the player purchases the monocle, which he actually doesn't use.
Perry is one of the better and more useful characters in Showdown. He has the ability to grab and throw an opponent into the ground and is immune to all forms of Mushroom Oil attacks which is actually a drug to him. He can even drink it from his bottle and spit it all out on the opponent. However, unlike in the story mode, Perry lacks his teleporting and healing abilities in Showdown mode.
Powers and abilities[]
- Teleportation
- Immunity to toxicity and acid
- Superhuman strength
- Ability to drink poisonous and toxic waste
Journal Entry[]
Preston O'Leary, the much-loved owner of O'Leary's Travelling Circus and Carnival Show, was killed shortly before this "toxic monster" took control of his circus. Due to the lack of manpower, lawmen and investigators were not available to investigate thoroughly O'Leary's case and Perry was never charged with manslaughter.
Professor Perry himself said that he is the new ring leader of the circus and the inventor of something called the "Miracle Elixir" and said that with his very own "circus crew" we will see shows that we had never seen before.
"The show must go on!" - Says Perry.
Trivia[]
- Perry has been nicknamed The Joker of the Wild West due to their large similarities one can easily find.
- It can be assumed some of the animosity Perry had towards Jack Swift was also because he was British.
- If one looks close enough at his torso, they can see that Oswald either wears a green pullover or has Mushroom Oiled up body.
- He was an aspiration for Joel Stromboli and his circus crew.
- In Red Dead Revolver 3dn edition his role is replaced by Wade Basset and his crew, who terrorise Silver Town. Similarly to Perry, Basset also owned a monocle, but rarely used it.
