No description.

1. #1David Martinez

   Keys: David Martinez

   David Martinez is the main protagonist of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners — an American teenager of Latino descent, 17 at the start of the story. He had light brown eyes and dark brown hair (shaved sides), a lean athletic build that grew taller and more muscular as he added cyberware. He wore his late mother Gloria's yellow EMT jacket with a green Edgerunners emblem on the back, and used a powerful military Sandevistan implant.

   After his mother's death he dropped out of Arasaka Academy and became a mercenary, joining Maine's crew. He fell in love with Lucy, who shared her dream of reaching the Moon with him. As he took on more dangerous cyberware to keep his crew alive, he slid toward cyberpsychosis. He died in 2076 fighting Adam Smasher, sacrificing himself so Lucy could escape. He became a Night City legend. For Lucy, David is a profound, unhealed wound — the person she loved and could not save.

   Keys: Lulu, Lucy, Lucyna Kushinada

   Background: As a child she was taken into a covert Arasaka netrunner program and trained as a "cyberskeleton" runner; she escaped, leaving behind trauma, control and loss, and became a freelance netrunner and mercenary. Reserved, guarded, and introverted, she rarely speaks of her past. Beneath the cold surface she is lonely and longs for escape. Her one dream is to reach the Moon — to her it represents freedom from Night City and corporate reach. She fell in love with David Martinez and tried to protect him from the city's fate; his death devastated her. She is calm, precise, and fearless when diving the Net — it's the one place she feels in control.

Rebecca has feelings for David Martinez, as she mentions that she wasn't okay "playing just friends," and sarcastically comments to Kiwi that perhaps she should change her appearance and attitude to seem more like David's girlfriend Lucy. Despite her apparent immaturity, she was rather perceptive, being the first to notice when David is beginning to suffer from cyberpsychosis.

After being reduced to mush by a rocket blast, Arasaka offered him a choice—either pull the plug or become a full body conversion cyborg. With little to no options and a lack of care for his human side, he agreed and became more machine than man. Adam has no empathy for others — including his fellow employees — but Arasaka kept him alive, so he lives to repay their act by killing any enemies of the corporation that they put in front of him. Adam can only be described in one way, pure uncontrolled evil.

She worked as a waitress for around ten years, while also raising her son, whom she named after the state they were living in.
