Uncle Roe

Uncle Roe is a person found in Canterbury Commons. Upon entering Canterbury Commons for the first time you will witness a scuffle between The AntAgonizer and The Mechanist. He will reveal some brief history of his town and the constant menace fighting between the two. After further questioning he will offer the The Superhuman Gambit quest, in which the player will have to settle the disagreements between the AntAgonizer and the Mechanist.

Uncle Roe also offers dialogue options regarding organization of the Caravan Merchants. He presents the player with a map showing the paths and stop locations that the Caravan Merchants follow.

Unmarked quest: Merchant Empire
You also have the ability to invest into his caravans and choose if you would like to see more weapons, armors, or food/chem's. The first time you invest in a caravan it will cost 200 caps, then another investment of 500 caps is possible.

Note
Be wary about investing into the various Caravan Merchant's stocks as they have been known to die in the waste, falling prey to random encounters. It has been confirmed that sometimes the caravan merchants get killed by the random chaos of the wasteland.
