“I'm Joe Porter. I make sure folks around here can get a meal when they need it.”
Joe Porter is a merchant in Canterbury Commons in 2277.
Background[]
Joe Porter, or "Porter Joe" as the name he prefers to go by, was once a loader-for-hire at a caravan. However, when he first arrived at Canterbury Commons, the idea of having a permanent base of operations and a steady community was very appealing to him. He settled down there with his dog, Ol' Mule, in about 2271 and has been working as an unloader, a basic cook, and a basic repairman since then. Since the death of his dog, he has been minding the town diner, the center of chatter in this settlement.[Non-game 1]

- ↑ The Lone Wanderer: "Do you know anything about the AntAgonizer or the Mechanist?"
Joe Porter: "You mean, apart from having cheesy names? Actually, I think I might know something useful. One of the traders told me she sounded like a girl he used to know. Girl's whole family was wiped out by ants, not long before she showed up here. But they never found any trace of her body. Said her name was 'Tanya Christoff.' That might just be our little AntAgonizer."
