Will the Witness
Level 5 Quest Giver · Red Gulch
In Desperados Destiny, Will the Witness is a level 5 quest giver — an early-game threat, reachable in your first sessions.
Field notes
An old drunk who saw something at the Red Gulch depot one night three years ago and has been worth killing ever since. Goes by Will. Lives at the Golden Spur because Whiskey Pete pours him a glass on the house and lets him sleep in the back room. The regulars protect him because nobody wants to be next.
What you are walking into
Will the Witness is level 5, carries 100 health, and is classed Vulture. That makes it an early-game threat, reachable in your first sessions. It fights straightforwardly, which makes it a clean read on whether your current build actually works. Every exchange resolves through the Destiny Deck: you draw five cards, choose what to hold, and the resulting poker hand decides how the action lands. Suit matches amplify the result, so the same fight against Will the Witness plays out differently each time you take it on.
Where to find Will the Witness
Will the Witness is encountered at Red Gulch. You will need to have discovered and travelled to that location before it can appear as a target, and travel between regions carries its own risks — routes are rolled for interception, and a bad roll puts an encounter between you and your destination. The full entry for Red Gulch covers what else is there.
