John Adams
A survivor recruited at the Courthouse during Act 1.
Who he is
John Adams is a recruit found at the Courthouse, one of the Act 1 maps, and he is a separate survivor rather than part of any combined name. The game confirms his name and where he is found; beyond that, his role in your militia is largely what you make of it. He shares the Adams surname with several figures tied to the shelter, though his exact connection is not spelled out.
How to use him
Because attributes and specializations grow through use, John can be shaped into whatever your squad is missing when you reach him. Clear the Courthouse, bring him back, and decide whether you want another ranged fighter, a melee body or a utility survivor. Every extra recruit widens the pool you can rotate through the county's maps and, eventually, the final defense of Urban Shelter.
