Dan (Fallout)

Dan is one of the earliest brahmin Barons and the largest brahmin dealer in the Hub in Fallout.

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.

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, a kid 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. <!--

{120}{}{Damn yourself, you brahmin freak.} {123}{}{Bramin freak? Is that an attempt at insult'n me? I would be a little more polite to the people ya' meet, stranger. I could care less, but this city is filled with all sorts of cutthroats that wouldn't hesitate to slit yer throat if ya look at'm wrong.} {127}{}{Damn, you're one ugly son of a bitch!} {129}{}{Well at least I don't have a mutated hind for a face. Yer mother must have been a brahmin and yer daddy a rat; that's the only way ya' could have come out so damn ugly. Hell, yer uglier than me!} {130}{}{No one talks about my mother like that! Prepare to die!} {131}{}{Yeah, not bad. Well I got places to go and people to beat. See ya', Dan.} {132}{}{Yeah right, that's an okay line, but everyone uses it. Yer kiddin' right? Ya' wouldn't lay a hand on poor ol' Dan.} {133}{}{Line? Hand? You wish. I'll lay much more than my hand on your soon to be dead carcass.} {134}{}{Ha! Had you going though, didn't I?} {135}{}{Yeah, a little maybe. You're not too bad, kid. But just remember to keep that mouth of yours under control. I'd hate to see a good mouth go to waste.} {136}{}{Sure, whatever you say. See ya', Dan.}

{145}{}{Which way to the Merchant Market?} {150}{}{So where's this Merchant Market?} {151}{}{Just go straight down this road. It's smack dab in the center of the Hub -- ya' can't miss it.}

{176}{}{I've killed lots of things!} {177}{}{I'm sorry, I've misjudged you.} {178}{}{You should have just killed the brat!} {179}{}{Well, maybe you could be just a little nicer to him. I think he's trying.} {180}{}{You should give him a good whipping!} {181}{}{Ya' think killing people solves the real problem?} {182}{}{Yep!} {183}{}{It's been working for me so far!} {184}{}{Hmmm, maybe not.} {185}{}{I don't know.} {186}{}{You disappoint me. You seemed to have a good head on your shoulders. Killing them might get rid of the problem temporarily, but you've got to get at the root of the problem to really make a difference.} {187}{}{Yeah, whatever.} {188}{}{Uh, okay. Bye.} {189}{}{You're an idiot.} {190}{}{Well (he pauses looking off into space). . . maybe yer right, partner. I'll keep that in mind but I ain't promisin' ya' anything.} {191}{}{Are ya' kiddin'? That'd just make'm more defiant! My ways may not be perfect but at least I know it'll make'm stronger and more responsible.} {192}{}{Damn straight. Kill'n the person with the disease isn't the best way. You've gotta find the cure because it's bound to surface again.}

{198}{}{Billy! Ya' better not be screw'n around, ya' little shit!} {199}{}{Billy! Ya' better make sure those brahmin are kept warm tonight or it'll be yer hide!}
