Primm Slim is the guard robot and caretaker of the Vikki and Vance Casino. Primm Slim is also a huge source of information for the player and will speak at great lengths about Primm, Vikki, Vance, and the casino.
My Kind of Town: After Deputy Beagle is rescued from the escaped convicts, Primm Slim can be reprogrammed through a dialogue option (Science 30) or with the application of 3 fission batteries and 4 conductors to become the new Sheriff of Primm. If he becomes sheriff, Beagle will resign, stating that Slim is guided too much by cold logic and the letter of the law.
Primm Slim has a ridiculous amount of health that increases with the player's level. In fact, he is the single most durable character in the game.
Despite being durable, Slim lacks an attack mode, which renders him defenseless. However, attacking him will cause the rest of the Primm citizens to become hostile.
If Primm Slim is made sheriff, he can be heard on Radio New Vegas. Humorously, he does not appear to know the name of the town he is sheriff of, due to missing data.
Once made sheriff, he will make one patrol around Primm and then stand near the Bison Steve Hotel for the rest of the game. (To the right, underneath the coaster tracks by a garbage bin)
If the player did not kill the convicts on the roller coaster near the Bison Steve hotel, they may attack Primm Slim after his patrol; Slim may eventually die since he cannot attack back.
He may also be found wandering the Mojave Wasteland, though this is rare.
After taking Vance's 9mm SMG, he will say "Always good to see you, pardner! Anything I can help you with?", but he won't initiate conversation. If this occurs before a sheriff is chosen by the player, it may remove Primm Slim as a candidate.
Primm Slim is one of the few robots in Fallout: New Vegas that has clothing in its inventory. Another example being Doctor Orderly MD PHD DDS from Old World Blues, which carries a Valence radii-accentuator.
