Interactions
Red Dead Redemption
Alma can be found at MacFarlane's Ranch, going about her daily business. She can appear sweeping the ground with a broom, either near the camping cauldron or around it. She can also be encountered working in the General Store, sweeping the floors, cutting vegetables or inspecting the grains.
At nights, she may sit around with the other residents of the ranch at the campfire and exchange chatter.
During the mission "Spare the Rod, Spoil the Bandit" Alma (or a character with her same model) is among the bodies discovered in the barn at Ridgewood Farm, having been murdered by the Williamson Gang before the posse arrives.
During the mission "Great Men are Not Always Wise" she is being held as one of the hostages by Dutch's Gang in the First National Bank of Blackwater. Alma and several other citizens are trapped in the safe on the ground floor, where one of the bandits holds a gun to her head whilst she struggles. When Marston frees them, he tells them all to "head to the town hall", after which she is not seen again.
Alma witnesses Marston, Edgar Ross and Archer Fordham drive through Blackwater in an armoured car during the mission "And You Will Know The Truth". She and other onlookers are astounded at the sight of it.
Alma, referred to as "the rancher's daughter", is also held hostage by Walton's gang at the Twin Rocks hideout. She is locked in the main building's back room and threatened at gunpoint by Woody Swenson.
