Rene is a latecomer on the 'caravan' of people to Providence from Sedro-Woolley; I haven't established how long he was there except that it was long enough to be a contributor to the well-being of it. On the tail of others he arrives approximately the weekend of April 19th with a wagon full of Stuff(tm) he's salvaged on the way. Let me know if there is anything your character might be interested in getting, because we could even use it for scene fodder! He essentially finds stuff he can sell, or things he can trade; anything from books to machine parts, provided he knows what it is. Some things are just interesting, though.
The bigger thing for me, however, is hashing out where he stands with various Providence residents/Remnant members. If you live in Providence or are a part of the Remnant militia, I'd like to set up some basic stuff, like 1 on 1 dynamics, any history, that kind of thing. NPCs count too, if you like.
Safe Zone wise, he might have known you if you were a fence or criminal type, but I am not as invested in those; might be fun to make some new friends! ;)
