Why hello there, m'friend and welcome to the Hub. Let me introduce m'self, they call me 'Dan The Brahmin Man!' I wheel and deal with all the merchants around here, offer'n my humble services for a low, low price. So now, what can I do ya' for.

Dan, Dan the brahmin Man,[1] or Danny,[2] is one of the earliest brahmin barons and the largest brahmin dealer in the Hub, located near the entrance around 2161. He can be found in the building just to the left from the entrance.

Background[]

When it comes to caravans, the merchant houses need two things: brahmin and wagon carts. Dan has pretty much monopolized the market when it comes to these two commodities. As a result, the Big Three (Crimson Caravan, Far Go Traders, and Water Merchants) deal with him exclusively. Dan also works closely with a lot of smaller caravan outfits throughout the wastes.[3] Although his outfit isn't looking for workers he will point those who are looking for work to the Big Three and the job post in the Merchant Market.[4]

He has an unmistakable Wild West manner of speaking and is generally a pretty easy going person to work with. That is, as long as you aren't a kid put into his care, like Billy, who was found stealing and put under Dan's watch as part of the rehabilitation process. Given the fact that the alternative was prison or exile, Dan's actually a pretty forgiving sentence.[5]
