Capitan (actually medic) Vincente Hector de Santa is a major character and a supporting or secondary villain featured in Red Dead Redemption, part II, The Mexican Revolution and part IV, Undead Nightmare (tho he has a minor role in the latter).
With the addition of the 'Mexicans and Others' DLC pack, De Santa is also a multiplayer character that may be selected in the "Mexicans" section of the outfitter.
He also serves a minor enemy role in Red Dead Revolver 3dn edition.
Info[]
De Santa is a medico in the Mexican Army, serving under Colonel Agustin Allende. He was born sometime in March, 1852.
Ambitious and unprincipled, De Santa knows that he is fighting a war, and he has to win as the rebels have placed a price on his head. He will do anything for the Army and kill anyone that tries to stop him.
De Santa is portrayed as a cruel, abusive, and sadistic man. Regular he personally participates in the slaughter of civilians that support the rebels and willingly kidnaps women to satisfy the sexual appetite of his commander, Allende himself. He is also a vicious sycophant, but is not above sending competitors on suicide missions for personal gain; he even made a man dig his own grave before shooting him. Despite Allende's abuse or perhaps because of it, De Santa seems to genuinely admire and look up to Allende, seeing him as a saviour of the Mexican way of life and her people. He is also a homosexual. In several missions, he is seen looking flamboyantly at Quincy Montemayor, a waiter, and can be seen with his arms around him later in the game and then they have sex.
Interactions[]
Revolver[]
De Santa is a boss of a chapter; mission 18 of the game named "The Mine", where Jack Marston meets with him and Javier Escuella before he could leave the mine inside Plata Grande. Not much is known of Vincente here apart from his name, and that he is especially good with molotov cocktails and used a potion of Wade Basset's to help his partner to get up when injuries are severe enough to cause death - similarly, Javier, Santa's partner will do the same if De falls to the ground almost lifeless, despite Javier having no medical knowledge, unlike De Santo.
De Santa is indeed very good at throwing fire Bottles and as you approach the edge of the mine, distracted, you will get hit by a rain of fire which almost makes you lose your full life. Similarly, when Javier falls out as a dejected teammate, De Santa exits the bottom of the mine by firing at you on the ground with all that he has.
Mexican Revolution[]
De Santa works alongside John Marston after his first visit to Escalera, sending him on various tasks, oftentimes personally helping Jhon do these tasks despite his cowardly nature. John grows to like him, seeing how most of the tasks involve burning down innocent people's homes and capturing young women to give to Allende and the other soldiers. John also obviously loves the idea of a dictatorship, seeing how he supported governmental control. De Santa appears to have tried to get John killed a few times, sending John on many missions with incompetent soldiers against large armies of rebels under the command of Espizona.
Eventually, De Santa betrays John by claiming that the Mexican army has captured Javier Escuella and Bill Williamson, and insists they are being held in the church at Chuparosa. However, upon reaching the said church, John is knocked unconscious by a rifle as to the head by Aurelio Canizales. Upon coming to, he is on the ground on knees, his hands tied behind his back. As he is about to be executed, a lone bullet, fired by Abraham Reys, whizzes through the air and prevents a seemingly imminent death. In the confusion, a large group of rebels attack, covering John's escape. Rushing over to Reys, John has the ropes binding his wrists cut, and hurries back to get his weapons stashed at the fountain. Unfortunately for Marston and the rebels, De Santa escapes, running back to the safety of Escalera.
In the Laura Fortuna's mission, "Doctor De Santa's Downfall", Laura explains that De Santa was sent to oversee a massacre in Sepulcro. She asks Marston to ride out with a group of rebels and finish him once and for all. Surely enough, John (with the help of his rebel friends) quickly dispatches all the Mexican army soldiers before beating De Santa to a bloody pulp. Under intense interrogation, the brutalised De Santa tells John that Javier Escuella is hiding at Casa Madrugada. In the end, John and the rebels coldly kill De Santa with shots to the head and stomach.
Medic De Santa's information about Casa Madrugada turns out to be a final lie, as only an ambush of Mexican soldiers awaited Marston and Victor Melendez.
De Santa's grave is to the far left of Sepulcro when the player enters from the side facing Las Hermanas.
Undead Nightmare[]
During the mission "Mother Inferior Blues", the player will be asked to clear out Sepulcro. Once the coffins have been burned and most of the undead cleared out, De Santa will emerge from his grave. As he rises, he will mumble: "Mehico loves you, Mr. Mar-ston", in an eerily distorted voice. The player must kill or otherwise disable the Captain to complete the cemetery; you can either kill or hogtie his ass.

- His tombstone reads; "Hombre Tierno, Medico Feroz", translating into "Tender man, fierce medic".
