This is why the community often comes up with these non-unique characters that feel unique. The list on the wiki is based on actual game data, anyone on that list is a unique recruit, and anyone not on it is not. Unless a patch has added a new one recently, which is unlikely since they only do bugfixes these days.

It's not on the wiki, but it seems he certainly is.

If you can recruit him, any same character, twice or more then he's not unique recruit. Except for Yamdu, assuming he's only unique recruit that is cloned after recruiting.
