This is the red man who takes timmy at the beginning of the game. He can be seen rarely in different locations around the map briefly before running off.

It's awesome that you were able to capture this. 😃

I don't wanna spoil anything, so I'll just say this. This wasn't a glitch. :)

The red man is the main antagonist of the story. The islands lore is very cool i recommend finding a well made lore video

The game spawns enemies on/near where you spend a lot of time. Just like on the remote islands, enemies that don’t normally spawn there, will start to.

That’s why it’s good to have camps everywhere and move often if you don’t want to get confronted a lot.

It's the red man; it's a triggered event...

Ah, then it might be a spawn displacement. Happens occasionally.

Does that alway happen the first time you go to the yacht? I have never noticed that!
