Biography in RDR 2 (click to enlarge)

Sadie grew up in a harsh environment and learned to hunt animals and ride horses in her youth. In September 1896, she became married to Jake Adler. The couple lived on a ranch in the state of Ambarino, where they shared the work evenly between them and had a happy marriage.

Events of Red Dead Online
When the player first arrives at the Adler Ranch, they meet Jake, who initially believes that they have come to rob him, but eventually deduces that they are actually looking for work. Sadie walks in moments later, having just completed a supply run, and is shocked to see the player, holding them at gunpoint. Although Jake clarifies that the player is only there to help, Sadie continues to act suspiciously and warns the player that should they betray her or Jake, she would kill them without a second thought. Still, Sadie is appreciative of the player's assistance.

The player can then visit the Adlers again and receive more missions from them. Sadie will give missions during nighttime, while her husband is available during the daytime. Their mission gives positive honor.

Events of Red Dead Redemption 2
Colter Chapter
Mere days before the game's opening, their house was robbed by the O'Driscoll Boys, who killed Jake. Sadie hid in the cellar for days in order to avoid the same fate. Members of the Van der Linde gang: Micah, Dutch, and Arthur, lifelong enemies of the O'Driscoll gang, come across the homestead that Sadie is hiding in, trying to find supplies. Dutch goes to negotiate with the owners, but they turn out to be O'Driscolls, who are killed by the trio after guns were drawn. After hearing the gunfire, Sadie comes out of the cellar to find Micah looting her house, and the two get into a confrontation leading to her threatening him with a knife and him knocking a lantern over and setting fire to the house, before Dutch and Arthur calm both of them down. Dutch decides to take her back to their camp, and despite their wanted status, she decides to stay with them.

If Arthur visits the non-fighting members' cabin, he can see Mary-Beth trying to comfort Sadie over her losses. Arthur can also offer Sadie food, but Sadie will reject the offer. In "The Aftermath of Genesis", Charles and Arthur express their sympathy for her, and suspect she will be reluctant to eat.


By 1907, some of Sadie's vengeful hatred and recklessness subsided. She appears much calmer when speaking to John, with whom she has maintained a good relationship; she even offers some bounty hunting jobs to help him pay back his mortgage for Beecher's Hope. However, Sadie still retains a streak of brutality and a no-nonsense attitude while dealing with criminals, and she unbendingly desired vengeance against Micah - to the point where she was prepared to put her life on the line for revenge. During a job, Sadie confesses to John that she had developed a slight death wish over time.
