Bubba Gimme
The bikers' trader, found in Little Italy, who runs the shelter shop once the Shady Lady charter backs you.
Who he is
Bubba Gimme is the survivor most tightly bound to the Shady Lady Bikers, and the roster's only dedicated trader. You find him in Little Italy during the suburbs stretch of Act 1. The names Bubba and Gimme refer to a single character rather than two recruits, so treat him as one survivor. His real value is economic: he is the link between your shelter and the biker charter's wartime market.
How to recruit and use him
Because Bubba is tied to the bikers, keeping the Shady Lady charter friendly makes recruiting him and getting the most out of him far smoother. Once the bikers back you, their representative Honest Joe sends Bubba to open a shop inside Urban Shelter, and his stock improves as your standing with the charter rises. That makes him less a frontline fighter and more a standing upgrade to your economy, so protect him and lean on the trade access he unlocks rather than throwing him into heavy combat.
