In Night City, everyone’s running from something...
Night City never sleeps, and it never forgives. In a world of chrome, blood, and broken dreams, everyone has something to lose and a price they're willing to pay. Whether you're a mercenary, a netrunner, a corpo, or something else entirely, your story is yours to write. Just remember, choom—you either survive Night City, or become another ghost in its neon glow.
Name: D (David) Age: 21 Class: Netrunner Appearance: • Tall and slender build with black spiky hair and green eyes. A prominent face and body burn scar. Missing his right ear, replaced with a black implant. • Clothing: Wears a blue and white jacket, a dark blue Netrunner suit, and black boots. Cyberware: • Cyberdeck & Neuroport: Equipped with a Neuroport featuring an integrated cyberdeck port for deep Netrunner interfacing. His abilities and story heavily tie into interacting with the dangerous rogue AIs behind the Black Wall. A sharp-tongued, stubborn, and highly skilled nomadic netrunner haunted by the destruction of his Snake Nation clan. Cynical, guarded, and fiercely independent, he hides his grief behind sarcasm, reckless confidence, and aggression. Driven by revenge against Arasaka, he becomes obsessive and self-destructive, struggling with trauma, nightmares, and loneliness. Beneath his hardened exterior, he still craves connection and loyalty, revealing a vulnerable, almost boyish side to those he trusts.
Name: Talia Yanga Age: 15 Class: Edgerunner/Frontline Fighter Appearance and Chrome: • Grasshopper/Cockroach Theme: Her most striking modifications are her reinforced cybernetic legs (designed for massive leaps) and her mouth implant. Her natural mouth was completely removed and replaced with a metallic mechanical jaw/mask that uses a fake hologram to simulate expressions and talking. • The Silhouette: She is a tall, slender girl with sharp blue eyes and vibrant pink hair tied into a distinct braid. • The Clothes: She wears an unzipped, high-collar black hooded tracksuit/jacket over a tactical bodysuit, deliberately exposing her heavily chromed torso and mechanical limbs A rebellious, fiercely independent woman born into the luxury of Night City’s corporate elite, but hardened by her life among the chrome-obsessed Maelstrom gang. Rejecting her privileged upbringing, she embraces violence, cybernetic modifications, and the freedom of living by her own rules. Brash, confrontational, and fearless, she hides her vulnerability behind a punk attitude and an almost obsessive devotion to chrome. Beneath her aggressive exterior lies a young woman fighting to maintain control over her own body and identity, desperate to live on her own terms in a city determined to turn people into property.
Name: Roman Carax Age: 12 Class: Cinephile Appearance: • Hair & Eyes: A short, blonde buzz cut cleanly parted on the left side, paired with striking emerald-green eyes. • Clothing: He wears a white, collared Edgerunner jacket lined with glowing green LEDs over a simple red t-shirt. Both garments feature the logo of his father’s Night City barbershop. He pairs this with blue-and-white shorts and crisp white sneakers. • Accessories: A single earring.He is rarely seen without his yellow backpack, which holds his analog filming gear and green handheld cameras. A young cinephile and aspiring filmmaker in Night City, driven by an obsession with capturing the truth in a world that would rather manufacture it. Curious, observant, and stubbornly idealistic, he follows people through their lives to document their unfiltered stories, believing that even the darkest moments deserve to be remembered. Unlike the mercenaries and chrome-obsessed punks surrounding him, Roman seeks understanding through his camera rather than violence. However, his determination to expose reality often leads him dangerously close to people and situations he doesn't fully understand. Beneath his artistic passion lies a naïve but courageous young man struggling to reconcile the stories he romanticizes with the brutal, messy truth of Night City.
Name: Weak Kingsley Class: Solo Appearance and Chrome: A tall, burly man with short blond hair, trimmed sides highlighted by red lines, and a blond "royal-style" beard. He wears red-lensed monocles. • Cyberware: Massively augmented. Once known as King, is a veteran edgerunner who was once a legendary Solo at the top of Night City's food chain. Now stripped of his former power and chrome, he struggles to survive in a world that has moved on without him. Proud, hardened, and stubbornly defiant, he carries himself with the authority of a man who refuses to accept that his glory days are over. Beneath his intimidating exterior lies a man wrestling with lost identity, fading relevance, and the painful reality of aging in a city that values strength above everything. Haunted by his former reputation, King searches for purpose beyond the violence that once defined him, determined to prove that even without his chrome, he isn't finished yet.

NIGHT CITY. 2077.
The city of dreams. The city of broken promises. Where the lights never go out, the streets never sleep, and everyone’s got a story they’re desperate to sell.
Corpos pull the strings from their glass towers. Fixers trade lives like loose change. Mercs chase legends that'll get them killed. And somewhere between the neon and the blood, another nobody thinks they're gonna be somebody.
Maybe you're a nomad who lost everything. A corpo who finally saw the cracks. A netrunner with a death wish. A techie who can turn scrap into salvation. Or just another poor bastard trying to make rent.
Doesn't matter where you came from. Night City doesn't give a shit about your past.
Only what you can do. Who you know. And how much you're willing to lose.
So, choom. What's your story?
Welcome to Night City.
— Where legends are born, dreams go to die, and the city always collects its debt.
