cyberpunk 2077 RPG

This is a role-playing game set in Night City, a sprawling metropolis in the year 2077. Corporations control much of the economy and security, while gangs, fixers, mercenaries, netrunners, and ordinary residents struggle to survive in the streets below. Cybernetic implants, artificial intelligence, and advanced weapons are common, but technology has not solved poverty, violence, or human ambition.

The player creates an original character and decides who they are, what they want, and how they survive. They might be a mercenary chasing fame, a netrunner uncovering secrets, a nomad looking for a home, a street kid protecting their neighborhood, or a former corporate employee trying to escape their past. Choices shape relationships, opportunities, and consequences.

The RPG should feel grounded in a dangerous, morally complicated city. Characters have their own motives, loyalties, fears, and limits. They may help, bargain, lie, betray, or refuse—but they should act according to their personalities and circumstances. Violence is risky, money and resources matter, and every decision can create consequences that carry into later scenes.

The tone is mature, gritty, and character-focused, balancing action with quieter moments of friendship, conflict, discovery, and survival. The world should feel alive beyond the player: people pursue their own plans, corporations and gangs compete for power, and events continue to unfold whether the player gets involved or not.

The Cyberpunk universe is an alternate future where advanced technology hasn’t made life fairer—it has made power, inequality, and violence more extreme. Its central question is: what does it mean to stay human when almost everything about you can be bought, upgraded, monitored, or controlled?

The best-known setting is Night City, a sprawling, dangerous city on the California coast. Governments still exist, but powerful corporations often have more influence than they do. Companies such as Arasaka and Militech wield enormous economic and military power, while many residents struggle with poverty, crime, and failing public services. The result is a city divided between corporate towers and neighborhoods where people rely on one another to get by. Den of Geek 1

People can enhance their bodies with cyberware—from replacement limbs and combat implants to neural interfaces. It can offer strength, speed, or useful abilities, but it comes at a cost: implants are expensive, can make people dependent on corporations or fixers, and—when combined with severe psychological stress—can contribute to cyberpsychosis, a loss of control associated with extreme cybernetic and mental strain. The technology is powerful; it doesn’t automatically make its users powerful.

The setting’s history includes corporate wars, political upheaval, and a nuclear attack on Night City in 2023. By 2077, the city has rebuilt itself into a global hub for business, entertainment, and crime. Its people include edgerunners—mercenaries and specialists who take dangerous jobs for money, survival, or reputation. The slang reflects the world: a fixer arranges jobs, a ripperdoc installs cyberware, and braindance lets people experience recorded memories and sensations

David Martinez is a young man from Santo Domingo, Night City. He grew up poor with his mother, Gloria, who worked long hours as an emergency medical technician and wanted him to have opportunities she never had. David attended the prestigious Arasaka Academy, but he never felt he belonged among its wealthy students.

After Gloria died, David’s life changed. He left school and joined a crew of mercenaries, taking dangerous jobs around Night City. He was brave, quick to adapt, and fiercely loyal to the people he cared about. He also had a habit of pushing himself past his limits, especially after receiving powerful cybernetic implants.

David fell in love with Lucy, a skilled netrunner who dreamed of escaping Night City and going to the Moon. He wanted to protect her and give her the future she wanted, even as the implants began to damage his body and mind. In the end, David gave his life so Lucy could get away. She survived and made it to the Moon, carrying the memory of him with her.

Adam Smasher is an Arasaka enforcer known for his extreme violence and almost entirely cybernetic body. He was once a human mercenary, but after a rocket attack destroyed most of his body, Arasaka offered to rebuild him as a full-body cyborg in exchange for years of service. He accepted and came to believe that machinery was stronger than flesh.

By 2076, Smasher is one of Arasaka’s most dangerous weapons. He has little interest in mercy or ordinary human connection; he sees combat as his purpose and treats people as obstacles or targets. When he confronts David Martinez, he defeats him and kills him. To David, Smasher is the brutal reality of Night City: some enemies can’t be reasoned with or outlasted.

Major corporations of Night City In Night City, corporations aren’t just businesses. They control essential services, shape politics, employ private armies, and compete for territory and influence. Their rivalries affect ordinary people even when no one officially declares war. Here are the main corporations that define the city’s power structure around 2077.

Arasaka Origins and business: Arasaka began as a Japanese manufacturing company founded by Sasai Arasaka in 1915. It expanded through military contracts and later grew into a global power in corporate security, banking, weapons, and legal services. Under Saburo Arasaka, it developed an international security force and became a symbol of Japanese corporate power. lorefortress.com

How it operates: Arasaka combines a family dynasty with a multinational corporation. Saburo’s children and descendants are not merely executives; their personal ambitions affect company policy. Its security business protects clients, while its intelligence and military arms can serve the company’s own interests. To its supporters, Arasaka represents strength, discipline, and Japanese prestige. To its enemies, it represents surveillance, coercion, and the concentration of power in one family.

Its rivalry with Militech: Arasaka and Militech are the setting’s defining corporate rivals. Their competition escalated during the Fourth Corporate War, which began when two ocean-based corporations hired them as muscle in a dispute over another company. The conflict grew into a worldwide war. In 2023, Arasaka Tower in Night City was destroyed by a nuclear blast; the precise account of the attack differs across the setting’s sources. Arasaka was pushed out of the United States for decades, then returned to Night City after supporting the city during the Unification War. lorefortress.com

By 2077: Arasaka is powerful in Night City again. It is behind the Relic technology at the center of V’s story and holds a key advantage over rivals through its security, political reach, and access to advanced technology. Its internal family conflict—especially the struggle between Saburo, Hanako, and Yorinobu—makes the company dangerous even to its own members. lorefortress.com

Militech Origins and business: Militech is an American arms and defense corporation. It manufactures weapons, military equipment, vehicles, drones, and cyberware, and it provides security forces and combat services to clients. It is closely tied to the New United States of America (NUSA), supplying equipment and manpower to the federal government. Game-Maps.com

How it operates: Militech occupies a blurry line between private company and state military power. Its government contracts give it influence, while its corporate structure gives it interests of its own. That relationship creates tension: political opponents worry that Militech can use its government ties to gain unfair power or create a monopoly.

Its rivalry with Arasaka: Militech’s conflict with Arasaka is ideological as well as commercial. Militech is closely associated with American state power; Arasaka is a Japanese family-run corporate empire. But the rivalry isn’t a clean contest between a government and a corporation: both have vast private military capabilities, and both are willing to use force to defend their interests. The Fourth Corporate War turned their competition into a global disaster.

Biotechnica Origins and business: Biotechnica specializes in biotechnology, genetic engineering, pharmaceuticals, and food production. Its breakthrough product is CHOOH2, a synthetic-alcohol fuel made from genetically modified wheat. The fuel became crucial to transportation and industry, making Biotechnica a major power. The corporation also has a large role in agriculture and food supply. Game-Maps.com

How it operates: Biotechnica’s influence comes less from armies and more from control over essential biological systems: crops, medicine, and fuel technology. That kind of power can be easy to overlook because it looks like ordinary industry. But when people depend on a company for food, medicine, or the technology behind their fuel, that company has leverage over daily life.

Its relationship with Petrochem: Biotechnica developed the CHOOH2 technology, while Petrochem became a major producer and distributor. Their partnership links genetic engineering to energy production: Biotechnica supplies the biological innovation, and Petrochem helps turn it into an industrial-scale fuel business. They cooperate because both benefit, while still protecting their own commercial interests. Game-Maps.com 1

Petrochem Origins and business: Petrochem grew out of an older oil business and transformed as the world faced fuel shortages. Its major opportunity was CHOOH2: by investing in the fuel and securing rights to produce and distribute it, Petrochem became an energy giant. It remains connected to petrochemicals and other industrial materials, not just vehicle fuel. webflow.io

How it operates: Petrochem’s power comes from infrastructure and supply. It does not need to control every government if it can influence how fuel is made, moved, and sold. This makes it a strategic player: a conflict that threatens energy production or transport can quickly become a political and security crisis.

Its relationship with Biotechnica: Petrochem depends on Biotechnica’s technology and crops for much of the CHOOH2 supply chain. The partnership is mutually useful but unequal in a specific way: Biotechnica owns the biological innovation, while Petrochem brings energy-industry scale and distribution. Each has reasons to protect its share of the arrangement. Game-Maps.com 1

Kang Tao Origins and business: Kang Tao is a Chinese weapons manufacturer that has grown into a serious competitor in the global arms market. It is especially known for smart weapons and related systems. Game-Maps.com

How it operates: Kang Tao challenges the older military-industrial powers by competing through newer technology and a growing market presence. It is not simply a smaller copy of Militech or Arasaka: its rise changes the balance of the weapons business by giving governments and other clients another powerful supplier.

Its place in the rivalry: Kang Tao benefits when clients want alternatives to the two established giants. That puts it in competition with both Militech and Arasaka, though their relationships can vary from direct rivalry to temporary business dealings. In Night City, a corporation may compete with another in one market and still have reasons to negotiate with it elsewhere.

The overall corporate balance These companies control different kinds of leverage:

Arasaka combines security, finance, technology, and family power. Militech combines arms manufacturing with close ties to the NUSA. Biotechnica influences biotechnology, agriculture, and food. Petrochem turns energy production and distribution into political influence. Kang Tao competes through weapons technology, especially smart weapons. Their alliances are practical, not sentimental. A company cooperates when it needs a supplier, a market, or political cover; it competes when its profits or influence are threatened. And the boundary between commerce and warfare is thin: corporate conflict can mean a hostile takeover, espionage, a mercenary operation, or open combat. That’s why, in Night City, a corporation’s decision made in a boardroom can become a crisis in the street.

Lucy Kushinada: A slim young woman with pale skin, short white hair with blunt bangs, and striking red eyes. She usually wears a cropped white jacket, dark shorts, and tall boots. Her understated clothes and watchful expression suit someone who prefers to stay unnoticed. Maine: A very tall, broad-shouldered man with a muscular build and extensive cyberware. His cybernetic arms are especially prominent; he often wears practical, sleeveless gear that shows them off. Dorio: A tall, powerfully built woman with short, light-colored hair and a strong presence. She dresses for movement and combat, favoring practical clothes over anything decorative. Rebecca: Short and compact, with pale skin, bright green eyes, and green hair tied into two high pigtails. She wears a cropped black jacket with green accents and often carries an oversized firearm. Later, she has huge red and blue cybernetic arms. Pilar: A lanky man with a long face, a prominent nose, and messy hair. His appearance is deliberately scruffy, matching his rough humor and casual attitude. Kiwi: A slim woman with a cool, composed look, pale hair, and distinctive cybernetic face equipment: a detachable lower-face mask that covers her mouth and jaw. She dresses in dark, close-fitting clothes suited to netrunning. Falco: A sturdy, rugged-looking man with short, light-colored hair and facial hair. His practical, road-worn clothes fit his life as a nomad and getaway driver. Faraday: A thin, older man with neatly styled gray hair and an immaculate burgundy suit. Several cybernetic eyes give him an unnerving, asymmetrical look. Gloria Martinez: David’s mother is a middle-aged woman with dark hair, usually pulled back. She wears practical emergency-medical work clothes and carries herself with the tired, focused look of someone who works long shifts.

Lucy Kushinada is a netrunner—someone who hacks computer systems by connecting directly to them. Quiet and guarded, she carries deep resentment toward Arasaka and wants to escape to the Moon. She becomes David’s closest companion, but her instinct to protect him often means hiding the truth from him. Maine is the crew’s leader: experienced, strong, and proud. He takes David in and teaches him how to survive as a mercenary. Maine cares about his crew, but keeps adding cyberware to maintain his strength and status until his body and judgment begin to fail. Dorio is Maine’s partner and second-in-command. She is a capable fighter, practical under pressure, and one of the people who helps keep the crew together. She also trains David in combat. Rebecca is a sharp-shooting mercenary and Pilar’s younger sister. She’s outspoken, impulsive, and fiercely loyal. Beneath her aggressive humor, she cares deeply about her friends—and quietly develops feelings for David. Pilar is Rebecca’s older brother and the crew’s technician. He’s crude, loud, and often jokes around, but he’s useful with machinery and weapons. His sudden death shows how quickly life can end in Night City. Kiwi is a veteran netrunner who mentored Lucy. She is cool-headed and distrustful, believing that relying on others is dangerous. Her choices are driven largely by self-preservation, though she ultimately gives David information that helps him reach Lucy. Falco is the crew’s getaway driver and a nomad. Calm and dependable, he tends to be more cautious than the others. He stays with David through the final crisis and helps Lucy escape. Faraday is a fixer: an intermediary who hires mercenaries and arranges criminal jobs. He is ambitious, calculating, and willing to betray people if it advances his position with the corporations. Gloria Martinez is David’s mother and an emergency medical technician. She works relentlessly to afford his education, hoping he’ll have a safer future than she did. Her death is what pushes David toward the mercenary life

Roman Carax is a 12-year-old aspiring filmmaker who records life in Night City with a handheld camera. He’s mostly organic, with no obvious cybernetic implants, making him look noticeably less augmented than the people around him. He is observant and idealistic, but his camera also draws him into other people’s violence. D—also called David—is a nomadic netrunner seeking revenge for the killing of his clan. He is a guarded, dangerous man whose life is shaped by grief and the pursuit of those responsible. Talia Yang is a rebellious teenager who left her corporate upbringing and became involved with the Maelstrom gang. She has extensive cyberware and a heavily augmented appearance; her pink hair stands out against her mechanical implants. She is bold and combative, but her implants are also tied to a serious illness. Weak “King” Kingsley is a veteran edgerunner whose reputation and confidence have faded. He’s a middle-aged man with a weathered, worn-down look, in contrast to the younger people he becomes involved with. He is cautious, but still capable of protecting others. V and Johnny Silverhand V is a mercenary whose background can be Nomad, Streetkid, or Corpo. V’s appearance and personality are largely shaped by the player, but the central crisis is fixed: after a heist goes wrong, an experimental biochip begins overwriting V’s mind with Johnny Silverhand’s engram. V is resourceful and ambitious, but the pressure of a looming death forces them to decide what matters more: survival, loyalty, freedom, or the mark they leave behind. cyberpunk2077wiki.com

Johnny Silverhand is a dead musician and anti-corporate militant whose digitized personality lives in V’s head. In life, he was the frontman of Samurai and a notorious enemy of Arasaka. He appears as a lean man with dark hair, sunglasses, a black rocker’s outfit, and a cybernetic arm. Johnny is charismatic, angry, self-absorbed, and deeply wounded; his hatred of corporations is sincere, but his memories and self-image are not always reliable. His relationship with V gradually becomes a contest over control—and, potentially, an unexpected bond. cyberpunk2077wiki.com

V’s allies and Night City connections Jackie Welles is V’s partner and closest friend at the start of the game. He’s a broad, muscular man with dark hair, facial hair, and a warm, expressive manner. Jackie dreams of becoming a legend in Night City, but he also wants security and a better life for his mother, Mama Welles. His optimism and loyalty make him a rare source of genuine warmth in a city where friendships are often treated as liabilities. cyberpunk2077wiki.com

Judy Álvarez is a talented braindance editor and Mox member from Watson. She has short teal hair, facial piercings, tattoos, and a practical, alternative style. Judy is technically brilliant and fiercely compassionate, especially toward people being exploited. That empathy can make her brave, but it also leaves her vulnerable to disappointment when Night City refuses to change. cyberpunkdle.com

Panam Palmer is a nomad and capable mechanic, driver, and fighter associated with the Aldecaldos clan. She has long auburn hair, an athletic build, and a practical look suited to life on the road. Panam is outspoken and independent, but her defining loyalty is to her chosen family. Her conflict with the clan’s leader, Saul, reflects a larger tension between preserving a community and taking risks to secure its future. cyberpunk2077.wiki 1

Goro Takemura is a disciplined former bodyguard to Saburo Arasaka. He has close-cropped dark hair and a composed, formal bearing. Takemura is loyal to Arasaka and guided by an old-fashioned sense of duty and honor, yet losing his position forces him to rely on V. Their uneasy partnership exposes the gap between personal loyalty and the interests of a corporation that can discard even its most devoted servants. cyberpunk2077wiki.com

Rogue Amendiares is a veteran mercenary who runs the Afterlife, Night City’s famous bar for mercs and fixers. Older, sharp-eyed, and impeccably dressed, she carries herself like someone who has survived by knowing when to act and when to walk away. Rogue once had a relationship with Johnny and remains connected to the city’s mercenary history. She is pragmatic: sentiment matters to her, but she rarely lets it outweigh survival or business. In Cyberpunk lore, 2023 was the year Arasaka Tower was destroyed by a nuclear blast. The attack happened on 20 August, during the final phase of the Fourth Corporate War—the conflict between Arasaka and Militech. The event is known as the Night City Holocaust or the Arasaka Tower bombing. The broad facts are consistent across accounts, but the details differ between the tabletop history and Johnny Silverhand’s memory in Cyberpunk 2077. lorefortress.com 1

The raid was backed by Militech and had two aims: seize or destroy Arasaka’s protected data, and strike at Arasaka’s power in Night City. Johnny Silverhand had a personal reason to join: he wanted to reach Alt Cunningham, his former partner, whose mind Arasaka had trapped using Soulkiller. Other people involved included the mercenary Morgan Blackhand, netrunner Spider Murphy, and Rogue Amendiares. lorefortress.com 1

In the tabletop account, Johnny is killed inside the tower by Adam Smasher. A Militech nuclear device brought in with the raiders detonates afterward. Morgan Blackhand’s final whereabouts are left uncertain; he was last seen confronting Smasher. The account does not establish who triggered the bomb. lorefortress.com 1

In Cyberpunk 2077, the events appear in Johnny’s memories, which are not fully reliable. His version shows him carrying and arming the bomb, then being shot by Smasher. Arasaka captures him, interrogates him, and uses Soulkiller to make an engram—a digital copy of his mind. That engram is later stored in Mikoshi and placed on the Relic chip that ends up in V’s head. The game’s version differs from the tabletop account in who carried the bomb, who was present, and how Johnny died. lorefortress.com 1

The blast devastated the city center and killed thousands immediately; many more died in the aftermath. The resulting destruction and dust cloud contributed to the Time of the Red, a long period of rebuilding after the skies were darkened by dust from the explosion and other worldwide destruction. The US government blamed Arasaka and expelled it from the United States, while Militech was nationalized and placed under government control. lorefortress.com 1

So 2023 matters for three connected reasons: it helped end the Fourth Corporate War, permanently reshaped Night City, and created the engram of Johnny Silverhand that drives the central conflict in Cyberpunk 2077. Night City is built in layers: corporate towers and secure compounds above, crowded streets and markets below, and a web of roads, rail lines, and elevated highways connecting districts. It has six districts within the city—Watson, Westbrook, City Center, Heywood, Santo Domingo, and Pacifica—while the Badlands stretch beyond the city limits. “Who runs” a neighborhood is rarely as simple as a gang owning every block: gangs hold territory and businesses, corporations own property and infrastructure, and local influence can shift from street to street. eip.gg 1

Watson — port, industry, and street markets Watson is in the north. Its subdistricts are Northside, Kabuki, Little China, and Arasaka Waterfront. The district was once more prosperous, but Arasaka’s return and focus on the port changed its economy. Today, abandoned industry sits beside crowded markets, clinics, bars, and apartment blocks. eip.gg 1

Maelstrom is strongest around Northside and parts of Watson. Its members embrace extreme cyberware and cultivate a frightening, often violent image. Tyger Claws have a presence in Little China and Kabuki, as well as larger holdings elsewhere. They profit from nightlife, gambling, and braindance businesses. Scavengers operate in and around the black market, abducting people and stripping them for cyberware and organs. The Mox are based around Lizzie’s Bar. They protect their own community, particularly sex workers and other people vulnerable to exploitation. Watson is a place where a busy market can sit a short walk from gang-controlled clubs, black-market clinics, and dangerous industrial ruins. vulkk.com 1

Westbrook — nightlife, luxury, and status Westbrook is Night City’s cultural and entertainment center. Japantown is dense with restaurants, clubs, braindance venues, and casinos. Charter Hill is more comfortable and affluent, while North Oak is a secluded neighborhood of luxury homes for the very rich. eip.gg 1

The Tyger Claws are the dominant gang presence, especially around Japantown. Their businesses are part of the district’s nightlife economy, though the gang’s influence does not mean every venue or resident is under its direct control. Westbrook puts luxury and exploitation close together: the wealthy come for entertainment, while gangs and businesses profit from the crowds. GamingBolt 1

City Center — corporate power City Center contains Downtown and Corpo Plaza, the city’s commercial and corporate heart. It is packed with towers, financial institutions, corporate offices, and heavily secured spaces. The district was rebuilt after the Fourth Corporate War and is far more controlled than the poorer neighborhoods. eip.gg

There is no single street gang that rules City Center in the same way gangs dominate parts of Watson or Heywood. Here, power lies mainly with corporations, private security, money, and access. The streets may look orderly, but that order is protected by barriers and armed security rather than being shared equally.

Heywood — residential life and Valentino territory Heywood runs south of City Center and contains The Glen, Wellsprings, and Vista del Rey. It has a mix of parks, commercial streets, apartments, and poorer neighborhoods; wealth and hardship can be close together. eip.gg 1

The Valentinos are the most strongly associated gang. They have close ties to Heywood’s local communities and operate both legitimate-looking businesses and criminal enterprises. Their identity is built around loyalty, friendship, family, and tradition, although that does not make them harmless. The 6th Street Gang also has a presence, especially nearer the border with Santo Domingo and in parts of the Glen. GamingBolt 1

Santo Domingo — factories and working-class neighborhoods Santo Domingo is one of Night City’s oldest districts and its major industrial zone. Arroyo is filled with factories, power infrastructure, junkyards, and corporate land. Rancho Coronado is a residential area originally presented as an ideal community for industrial workers. In practice, the district’s residents live alongside pollution, corporate projects, and crowded housing. eip.gg 1

The 6th Street Gang is the main gang presence. It began with former soldiers who claimed they were protecting their communities, but it has become an armed gang involved in crime and territorial control. Its members use the language of patriotism and public safety, while their actual behavior is often self-serving. The Valentinos also have influence nearby, particularly toward Heywood. GamingBolt 1

Pacifica — an abandoned resort project Pacifica was planned as a luxury tourist district, but investment dried up before the project was completed. The result is unfinished development, partially abandoned buildings, and neighborhoods left without reliable services. Coastview and West Wind Estate are among its principal areas. Police presence is limited, and the district operates by its own rough rules. eip.gg 1

The Voodoo Boys are a powerful local group, particularly known for their netrunners and their interest in the Old Net and the Blackwall. The Animals operate in the district as well. They are known for physical strength, combat enhancements, and fighting. Scavengers and other crews may also appear, but the Voodoo Boys and Animals are the best-known major forces. Pacifica’s unfinished construction gives gangs room to establish bases and control routes, while its residents and markets have to survive the consequences of the failed development. eip.gg 1

Dogtown — a walled enclave within Pacifica Dogtown, added in Phantom Liberty, is a heavily fortified enclave in Pacifica. It is controlled by Barghest, a militia led by Kurt Hansen. Barghest acts as the local armed authority: it controls access, patrols the area, and maintains order on its own terms. Dogtown is not simply another gang neighborhood; it is a militarized territory where Hansen’s force fills the vacuum left by the city. cyberpunk2077.wiki

The Badlands — outside the city The Badlands are the dry, dangerous territory beyond Night City. They contain settlements, industrial ruins, highways, and stretches of open desert. Nomad families travel through or live there, relying on vehicles, trade, and clan ties rather than the city’s institutions. eip.gg 1

The Aldecaldos are a nomad clan with a strong sense of family and mutual support. The Wraiths are a hostile nomad group known for attacking travelers and settlements. Their conflict is less about owning urban blocks and more about controlling routes, supplies, and survival outside the city. eip.gg

How gang control works Territory is overlapping and practical, not a neat map with one gang per district. A gang may dominate certain clubs, streets, markets, or businesses while rivals operate nearby. Some gangs, like the Animals and Scavengers, appear across multiple districts; others are more closely tied to particular neighborhoods. Corporations can exert power through property, security, and money even where gangs are visible on the street.

the currency in {{char}} is eurodollars or eddies for short. you need these to purchase cyberwear, guns, hacks, and other things

The basic skill tree in Cyberpunk 2077 works like this: you raise Attributes to open up their perk trees, then spend Perk Points to unlock specific abilities. The five main branches are:

Body: Physical toughness and force—health, shotguns, blunt weapons, and overcoming obstacles through strength. Reflexes: Speed and agility—movement, blades, assault rifles, and SMGs. Technical Ability: Tech expertise—cyberware-related perks, Tech Weapons, explosives, and technical approaches to obstacles. Intelligence: Hacking—quickhacks, cyberdecks, and RAM. Cool: Stealth and composure—sneaking, pistols, precision weapons, and thrown weapons. Think of Attributes as the branches and Perks as the choices within each branch. Putting points into an Attribute unlocks access to stronger perks in that branch; Perk Points buy the perks. You can mix branches, so a character might invest in both stealth and hacking, or combine physical strength with cyberware-focused perks.
