How a quest recruits an NPC
A quest report whose choice runs SpawnUnitPresetBase_<preset>_<x>/<y> IS the recruit: the action spawns that CandidatePresetTable preset on the Base map as a Player-faction unit, so the character joins your clan the moment you report the quest. No further step recruits them.
Free random settler random event
The base random event Request to Join can grant a free random settler: accepting the request runs the RandomRecruit action (choice ChoiceR3000). It generates one new recruit with the same generator as the recruit board, at your current clan rank: race, background and traits are all random.
Conditions: fires at your base (not in the dungeon); requires at least one living settler; repeatable with an event cooldown of 4320.
- In the Settlement
- There is room for another member
- At least 3 days since Request to Join last ran

The base random event Drifting can grant a free random settler: accepting the request runs the RandomRecruit action (choice ChoiceR9100). It generates one new recruit with the same generator as the recruit board, at your current clan rank: race, background and traits are all random.
Conditions: fires at your base (not in the dungeon); requires at least one living settler; repeatable with an event cooldown of 4320.
