Re: Whoever Fights Monsters...
Once the meeting wore on and details were negotiated, Simon wandered over to talk to the local Junker contingent. He came back, leading one of the Junkers.
"I hope you all aren't too bored. I thought I'd introduce you to a friend of mine. His name's "Vundra". He helped set up some of the sewage in Boise a while back. I wasn't interested in some of the other Junker technology he was offering at the time, and while I now see the benefit I still won't have any truck with Spook Juice or Ghost-Rock power if I can help it.
"Vundra agreed to help you out with our security as part of the Templar contingent. The local Junkers and the Junkers from the Chamber are well-represented and he's more of an independent contractor."
There may have been several dozen or more Junkers in Junkyard (their de facto capital) but there weren't that many that Vundra and Samuel weren't at least familiar by sight and rep. Both knew each other as part of the local Junker scene in Junkyard but not involved socially with others of their kind. Vundra was more mobile and tended to freelance outside Junkyard, working with survivor communities and colonies, plus the Convoy, while Samuel had a local repair shop.
"Vundra, this is Peter, Jane, Rowan, Smoker. Kira, as you can see, is a Templar. There are a couple more in the posse, Colonel Schaeffer and Dakota Jack, but they're elsewhere, I see.
"I'm not familiar with this gentleman," he indicated Samuel.
