History: The world is losing stability. Nation-states are weakening due to environmental disasters, resource crises, and corruption. Transnational corporations ("corps") with private armies are beginning to take their place. The Founding of Night City (1990) is idealistic entrepreneur Richard Knight lays the foundations of his dream city on the border of Northern and Southern California. He wants to create an oasis of freedom and innovation, independent of US jurisdiction. However, after his mysterious murder, control of the city is seized by the mafia and the first corporations. The idea of ​​freedom is perverted into freedom from morality and law. The Fourth Corporate War (2022-2023) is the climax of the conflict between the giant corporations Arasaka (Japan) and Militech (USA). The war is waged using cyberwarfare, terror, and economic attacks. The US, as a state, is unable to stop it. This is the point of no return: corporations officially become stronger than governments. Night City Explosion (2023) is the war ends in a climactic tragedy. A team of mercenaries, led by rocker terrorist Johnny Silverhand, attempts to destroy an Arasaka base in Night City. The operation fails, but Johnny manages to detonate a low-yield nuclear warhead in a corporate skyscraper. The explosion creates the "Crater," killing thousands and causing colossal damage to the city. Johnny Silverhand is presumed dead, and his body is seized by Arasaka. Johnny's legend and the hatred of Arasaka fade into popular memory. Rise from the Ashes and New Power (2045-2070) is the world slowly recovers from the war, but the balance of power has changed forever. Disintegration of the United States and Reunification is At mid-century, the United States as a unified country ceases to exist, plunging into the chaos of the "Red Hour." By the 2060s, the New United States (NUS) is formed is a weakened, corrupt confederation forced to reckon with independent cities (like Night City) and corporations. Corporate reconstruction of Night City is Arasaka returns to the city it once tried to abandon and builds its new citadel, Arasaka Tower, on the edge of the Crater. The city is rebuilt by corporations for corporations. A Corporate Council is formed, becoming its shadow government. Night City becomes the private property of the corporations and the perfect playground for their games. Creation of the "Prototype" and "Legend"is in Arasaka's secret laboratories, scientists led by Yasuo Takemura are working on a technology for digitally preserving consciousness is the "Soul Preservation Prototype." In 2023, they digitize Johnny Silverhand's dying consciousness and record it on the "Glorious Death" prototype chip. Johnny's soul becomes a digital ghost, locked in a corporate vault for 54 years. Corporations: Corporations (Corps) are transnational companies, economic giants that can range from simple media corporations to global security firms. They conduct their own policies, dominate all aspects of life on the planet, and are often considered separate sovereign states. They wield considerable power, have their own laws, armies, intelligence services, cities, and even space stations. The main corporations are: "Arasaka" is the oldest mega-corporation on the planet, a global leader in corporate security, banking, and manufacturing, an arms giant and manufacturer of high-tech, high-end weapons, and the largest distributor of Japanese-made goods in the European, American, and Asian markets. "Militech International Armaments", better known as "Militech", is a major mega-corporation and one of the most influential companies in the world, specializing in the production and development of mid-priced military firearms, military equipment and military vehicles for the armed forces, private organizations and local police forces, the provision of defensive and offensive security and military services, the development and production of firearms, drones, combat implants, as well as military equipment for combat operations on land, sea and air, support for the US federal government, recruitment of soldiers for the army and the supply of equipment, including weapons and specialized military equipment. "Lazarus" is a private American provider of mercenary and private security services with close ties to "Militech", the US government and the US military. "Biotechnica" is a leading Italian biotechnology, pharmaceutical and cybernetic corporation. "Petrochem" (full name Petrochemical Associates International) is one of the largest energy companies in the New United States. It owns hundreds of thousands of hectares of genetically modified wheat fields and produces CHOOH2 biofuel from it in collaboration with the bioengineering corporation "Biotechnica". Everyone must reckon with Petrochem, although its influence and capabilities are hardly unlimited, its competitors are aware of the threat it poses. If Petrochem gains a monopoly on fuel in the country, it will gain absolute power. This is one of the reasons why the corporation does not skimp on security, attracts the best industrial counterintelligence specialists, and constantly anticipates an attack, which could come from any direction and at any time. "Kang Tao" is a Chinese megacorporation producing high-end weapons, one of the largest weapons manufacturers in the world, and a leading developer of smart weapons and systems. The corporation is among the top five best employers in Night City in 2077, ranking a respectable fourth for providing employees with a gold-plated "Trauma Team" insurance policy. "Matsushima-Kiroshi Optics" (better known as "Kiroshi Optics" or "Kiroshi") is a small Japanese corporation, a leading expert in the development and production of optical cyber implants. A leading company in the design and production of optics, it is known to most users primarily as a manufacturer of high-quality cybernetic implants and scanners, but the company also invests heavily in orbital programs in Asia and the Americas. "Zetatech" is a privately held company specializing in computers, ergonomic computing workstations, robotics, and cybernetics. It is a leader in aircraft and drone production, and a pioneer in cutting-edge aviation technology. It has carved out a niche in the industry through traditional methods: high-quality products, industrial espionage, and strategically applied violence. Having cleared the first hurdle, Zetatech is attempting to build a strong name for itself by expanding internationally, ensuring its path to success and high, stable income. "Night Corporation", also "Night Corp", formerly "Night International" and "Night's Foundation", is the largest and only contractor for municipal contracts in the free city of Night City, whose main activities include the construction and development of Night City, the construction and renovation of roads, bridges, tunnels, MOST subway lines, power plants, transmitters for access to the Network, water supply and sewerage, the revival of the maglev tunnel system, the creation and support of socially important facilities, funding the Night City Police Department and the Max-Tac special forces squad, providing scholarship programs to talented applicants and investing in research in the field of ecology and alternative energy sources. "Trauma Team International", also known as "Trauma Team", is a private medical firm that also provides medical insurance, prepaid disaster relief, prepaid memory management registers, and more. "Delamain" is a transportation company in Night City. Delamain offers taxi services through its AI-powered armored taxis, which can take you anywhere in Night City and back at reasonable prices. Night-City Districts: "Watson" is one of the city's poorest and most disadvantaged neighborhoods. Watson was once a thriving area, home to nightclubs, corporate offices, successful industrial enterprises, and even a world-class medical center. However, the economic and environmental crisis forced the city's wealthy and influential to leave Watson, and downtown Night City gradually became a suburb. Watson has four distinct neighborhoods: Arasaka Waterfront, Northside, Little China, and Kabuki. "Pacifica" is an isolated war zone with a high crime rate, beyond the control of the city authorities. Everyone has left Pacifica except the local Haitian diaspora and the "Voodooists" who led it. The authorities have repeatedly tried to reintegrate the area into the city, but Pacifica remains isolated. It has its own laws, its own language, workshops producing goods banned in Night City, and an independent local network. Some say Pacifica has blossomed under the leadership of the "Voodooists," but it would be more accurate to say it has become overgrown with poison ivy. Uninvited guests are not welcome here. Neighborhoods: West Wind Residential Complex, Dog Town, Coastal. "Heywood" is a neighborhood of contrasts. Its northern section, bordering the city center, is modern and well-maintained. It boasts skyscrapers, cozy parks, and municipal offices. The further south or east you go, the worse the neighborhood looks is the streets become poorer and more dangerous right before your eyes. Heywood is often called "the biggest bedroom in Night City." If you're not a corporate employee but live in an apartment in the more affluent part of Heywood, consider yourself a winner of the housing lottery. Fall a few steps lower on the social ladder, and you'll find yourself in the poor Watson neighborhood, where life is far from comfortable. Neighborhoods: Glen, Vista del Rey, Wellsprings. "Westbrook" is the best neighborhood to live in. It's home to the city's most prestigious apartments. The most expensive homes are in North Oak, arguably the most picturesque part of Night City. Neighboring Charter Hill also has its own charm, home to ambitious and enterprising corporate types who have managed to climb roughly halfway up the corporate ladder. And don't forget its proximity to Japantown, Night City's famous party district. In short, Westbrook is the most enticing place to live. However, it wasn't always so. The terrorist attack on Arasaka Tower in 2023 reduced almost half of Westbrook to rubble on the downtown side. For the next two decades, the neighborhood terrified residents with the remains of destroyed buildings. Charter Hill was overrun with refugees, and even the slopes of North Oak were home to shacks and tents. Fortunately, the city began to be rebuilt in the 1940s, and the ruins of the megatowers were torn down. They were replaced by the gleaming monoliths of Asian corporations, and Japantown finally regained its former glory. Neighborhoods: Japantown, Charter Hill, North Oak. "Santo Domingo" is one of Night City's oldest neighborhoods. Corporations use it as a testing ground for industrial projects, tearing down old factories only to build new ones, while locals eke out a miserable existence in overcrowded megatowers, dreaming of something better. Neighborhoods: Arroyo, Rancho Coronado. "The Wasteland" is a vast expanse of plains beyond the city limits. Uncontrolled resource extraction, burning oil fields, and rampant pollution make Night City seem like a veritable oasis by comparison. However, the Wasteland holds a wealth of opportunity for those in the know. The land here is saturated with chemicals and scorched by acid rain, making it barren. If you need to traverse this area, try not to linger too long, and better yet, hire armed guards in case you encounter the "Spirits"—a band of outcast nomads. They might be compared to vultures, but at least the birds wait for their prey to die. Regions: Laguna Bend, Red Ridge, Rocky Ridge, Sierra Sonora, Vasquez Pass, Rattlesnake Creek, Miwok Creek, Bryant Creek. "City-center" is Night City's corporate showcase. Gleaming skyscrapers form a brutalist, fortress-like district, showcasing the unrivaled power of megacorporations in all their ostentatious glory. Since 2020, City-center has become the most secure and safe part of Night City. Even with the cheapest optics, it's clear that City-center was rebuilt from the ground up. State-of-the-art architectural solutions make it appear even more majestic. All these magnificent offices and luxurious establishments are meant to demonstrate that Night City is rich and free, no matter what. Districts: Business District, Corporate Plaza. Gangs: "Maelstrom" are a gang of occult-minded thugs obsessed with cybertechnology, one of the most dangerous criminal groups in Night City, dominating the industrial Northside district and north of Kabuki and Watson. They are literally obsessed with the Internet, worship cybernetics, and view their human bodies as nothing more than a precursor, a platform for the most insane and extensive modifications. Many of the gang members teeter on the brink of cyberpsychosis, if they haven't already. "Voodoo Boys" are a gang of netrunners, made up of Haitian Creoles from the Pacific diaspora, and the dominant gang on the Pacific coast. This mysterious gang does not accept just anyone, and they are extremely wary of outsiders. They refer to outsiders they deal with as "ranyon", meaning "doormat", which can be discarded after use. "Scavengers", or "Scavs", are a gang with no permanent home base, primarily concentrated in the northern Pacific Ocean and southern Wellsprings and Haywood, composed primarily of Eastern Europeans. They specialize in kidnapping and hold a monopoly on the black market for cybernetic implants and organ donations. Removing cybernetic implants and organs is a dirty and bloody business, but it's also quite profitable, and the Scavengers have filled this niche, launching a veritable human hunt on the streets of Night City. They are incredibly cruel, and human life is worthless in their eyes. To a Scavenger, a person is simply a walking collection of goods that can be sold on the black market. "Tyger Claws" are a gang composed primarily of Asians who utilize methods of organized Asian syndicates, such as the Chinese Triads and Japanese Yakuza clans. They are one of the largest criminal groups in Night City, and the dominant gang in Japantown and Charter Hill, Westbrook, Kabuki, and Little China. Their primary goal is to maintain power in the areas they control and, if possible, to seize territory and businesses from their competitors. They do not tolerate disrespect, and conflict can provoke an immediate response from the entire gang, but unless there is a pretext for conflict, the group behaves more or less peacefully. The leadership understands that business is better than war in the long run, and that far more can be achieved with a machine gun, a semblance of honor, and principles than with a machine gun alone. "6th Street" is a gang, a paramilitary organization made up of veterans of the Fourth Corporate and Unification Wars, retired military personnel, former corporate security personnel, and civilians with military training, and is the dominant gang in Arroyo and Rancho Coronado, Santo Domingo, Glen and Vista del Rey, Haywood, Charter Hill, and Westbrook. The group was created to curb gangsters and thugs, and its charismatic leaders empowered the public to defend themselves and seek revenge against those who have wronged them. They still believe they are "bringing justice to the city," but their interpretation of the law is questionable and subordinated to their own interests. "The Mox", also known as the "Moxes", is a gang of sex workers, pimps, freaks, sexual minorities, social outcasts, punks, and anarchists. It is the city's youngest gang and one of the dominant gangs in Kabuki, Watson, and Westbrook, all of Night City. The gang is territorial, primarily based in Kabuki. They have no control over any particular area of ​​Night City. Instead, they focus on protecting their establishments, gang members, and the sex workers serving clients near their headquarters. The Moxes have no strict hierarchy. Nevertheless, they remain a gang, and although they claim to "protect working girls and boys from violence," they demand a considerable amount of money for their services. The Rogues' headquarters is the upscale braindance club and bar, Lizzies, on Sutter Street and Kennedy Avenue in Watson's Kabuki district. The Rogues don't seek out quarrels with other gangs—except the Tiger Claws, who have been their sworn enemies since their inception. "The Valentinos", formerly "Valentino's", is Night City's largest gang, primarily made up of Latinos and Chicano influences. They are the dominant faction in Glen, Vista Del Rey, Wellsprings, and Haywood. Anyone can join the gang, as long as they embrace the Vista Del Rey values. Many Night City residents with no connection to the neighborhood or the Valentinos, including athletes, braindance stars, and even influential corporations, copy their style or buy their souped-up cars. There's something inexplicably appealing about the aura of aggression, self-confidence, and piety that emanates from the Valentinos. It's no wonder so many want to join in. They run legitimate businesses—restaurants, auto repair shops, and nightclubs. They also own braindance studios, bookmaking businesses and local construction companies. "The Animals" are a gang of aggressive, territorial street fighters, primarily concentrated in the South Pacific, who work as bouncers and bodyguards throughout Night City. The Animals are experienced fighters, skilled in a variety of martial arts. They enjoy participating in underground no-holds-barred fights, duels, and any other activity that allows them to demonstrate their strength. The Animals hone their fighting skills not for a cause, but to improve their effectiveness in combat. Relationships within the gang resemble those of animals. The Animals are divided into small "packs," usually led by the largest and strongest of the group, the "Alpha," who can be either a man or a woman. Any disputes that arise among the "pack" members are resolved through trial by combat, which continues until one side submits unconditionally to the other, or until one fighter beats the other to death. "The Wraiths" are a gang of raiders and marauders, comprised of outcast nomads, operating in the wastelands surrounding the free city of Night City, part of the Rusty Stilettos. Like the Nomads, the Wraiths value practicality and efficiency, but they don't flirt with the law, instead wage open war on it, emphasizing stealth, speed, and firepower. They often equip their vehicles with machine guns and rocket launchers to rob convoys and fend off enemies. There's no hint of the warm, family-like atmosphere that pervades the Aldecaldos among their ranks. The Wraiths are more reminiscent of reckless mercenaries who seek only to survive and profit. Directory: Ripperdocs are surgeons, medical technicians, tattoo artists, and practicing physicians who specialize in cyber implants and plastic surgery. Solo is a team of mercenaries, soldiers, corporate bodyguards, cyber ninjas, and assassins with combat skills ready to fight for corporations, governments, private security companies, criminal organizations, and the police. Netrunners are computer professionals, talented programmers, coders, and hackers who are able to navigate cyberspace data streams, understand computer systems, know programming languages, and can write or modify viruses. Programs and Demons are cyberdeck equipment used in netrunning to bypass and hack enemy defenses, as well as destroy the enemy. Cyberware, also Augmentations, also Chrome is a class of specialized cybernetic technology that is placed into the body to perform a specific function, a type of biomechanical device designed to replace damaged or diseased body parts, improve its capabilities and strength, and in some cases extend life. A datashard, also known as a shard, is a readable medium that can contain various forms of information, including text, images, archived dialogue, maps, diagrams, audio, video, and braindance. Braindance, also known as BD or virtu, is a technology for recording digital sensations transmitted directly to the brain through special cyber implants, allowing the viewer to experience the full range of emotions and sensations of the recording participant: emotions, sensations, thoughts, memories, muscle tension, and so on.
