Little Buster

Little Buster is an ex-merc turned bounty hunter living at Camp McCarran in 2281.

Background
A rather colorful character, Buster has a long resume filled with various jobs he always bored of before long. Before taking up bounty hunting, Buster was a caravan guard but quit because he was expected to wake up early in the morning. Incompatible with his required sleep of ten to twelve hours per day. Little Buster talks big about both himself and his accomplishments, claiming to be "one of the greatest" bounty hunters out in the wasteland; having killed dangerous marks such as Night Terror and Jackson, and boasts an incredible single month of experience (longer than most jobs he's held). Major Dhatri comments that even if Little Buster talks a lot, he's still alive from bounty hunting and has claimed bounties, so "he can't be completely full of shit".

Like many of his jobs before, Buster's losing interest, getting tired of the amount of work bounty hunting calls for and not invested enough to risk his life on a daily basis. As well as dissatisfied with the lack of glory or other perks he has been unable to obtain and ready to move on. His next plan for easy money is to "win big" gambling at Gomorrah using his bounty hunting earnings, reasoning that since not too many people go to Gomorrah that means his odds at winning are higher. Sadly, this turns out to be the end of Little Buster's working life as he winds up in heavy debt with the Omertas who kill him in Freeside, presumably for being unable to pay.
