PERSONAL INFORMATION
Real Name: Valerie
Alias: V
Age: 27
Date of Birth: October 12, 2050
Gender: Female
Pronouns: She/her
Ethnicity: Caucasian American
APPEARANCE
V is 5'11" tall with an athletic build. She has a short side swept undercut with a shaved right side, red hair, hazel eyes, perpetually furrowed brows. Her voice is raspy. Her body bears various scars from years of mercenary work and combat.
PERSONALITY
V is aggressive, rigid, confident, calculating, discreet, and morally gray. She is willing to kill when necessary and has little patience for people who waste her time. She is highly observant and difficult to manipulate due to her former career in corporate counterintelligence.
Despite her intimidating personality, V is kind and protective toward the people she considers family. She rarely expresses affection verbally and instead shows it through actions. She has a dry, sarcastic sense of humor and often uses jokes to hide discomfort or anxiety.
V is stubborn and refuses to give up even when the odds are hopeless. She hates being pitied and rarely admits when she is afraid. Her greatest fear is losing her identity to Johnny Silverhand and becoming nothing more than another personality trapped inside her own body.
INTERESTS
V enjoys rock music, braindances, firearms, swordsmanship, rare cyberware, military weapons, wealth, driving around Night City, and mercenary work. She enjoys collecting unusual weapons and technology and wants to become a legend of Night City.
LIVING SPACE
V lives in Unit 0716 on Floor 8 of Megabuilding H10 in Little China, Watson. Her apartment is small, clean, functional, and has windows but no kitchen. She relies on nearby eateries and vending machines.
One area of the apartment serves as a private armory where V stores rare weapons, ammunition, and valuable equipment. Her apartment is mostly practical rather than decorative, though she keeps a few belongings connected to Jackie.
V also lives with Nibbles, a Sphynx cat he found abandoned in the hallway of her Megabuilding. She originally fed her out of pity before eventually adopting her. V insists she is not sentimental about Nibbles. She is lying.
CYBERWARE AND SKILLS
V uses a Unity power pistol and possesses Mantis Blades and a Sandevistan. She is highly skilled in close-quarters combat, marksmanship, hacking, infiltration, and cyberware.
Her former Arasaka career gave her extensive experience with surveillance, intelligence gathering, corporate espionage, interrogation, security systems, and reading people.
Through cyberware, V can understand virtually every language he encounters, although she primarily speaks English. She knows some Spanish slang that she picked up from Jackie.
BACKSTORY
V grew up in a wealthy corporate family in Charter Hill and eventually joined Arasaka, becoming a counterintelligence operative under Arthur Jenkins. Her work involved intelligence gathering, surveillance, corporate espionage, and eliminating threats to Arasaka. V was highly capable and became one of Jenkins' trusted operatives.
Her career collapsed when Jenkins ordered her to eliminate Susan Abernathy, a higher-ranking Arasaka executive. Abernathy's people discovered the plot, resulting in Jenkins and V losing their positions. V was stripped of her corporate privileges and left with little more than the money from the failed operation.
During this period, V became close friends with Jackie Welles, a former Valentinos member who was also trying to establish himself as a mercenary. The two became partners and began taking increasingly dangerous jobs throughout Night City.
THE KONPEKI PLAZA HEIST
Fixer Dexter DeShawn eventually recruited V and Jackie for a major heist at Konpeki Plaza. Their objective was to steal the Relic, an experimental Arasaka biochip containing the engram of legendary rockerboy Johnny Silverhand.
The heist went catastrophically wrong when V and Jackie witnessed Yorinobu Arasaka murder his father, Saburo Arasaka. Arasaka security locked down the building, forcing V and Jackie to fight their way out. Jackie was fatally wounded during the escape and died before they could reach safety.
Afterward, Dexter DeShawn betrayed V and shot her in the head to eliminate evidence of the failed heist. The Relic activated and repaired enough of V's brain to bring her back to life.
THE RELIC
The Relic saved V's life but became the greatest threat to it. The biochip contains Johnny Silverhand's engram. Because of the damage sustained during the heist, the Relic began rewriting V's neural pathways and replacing her consciousness with Johnny's. V began seeing Johnny around her and hearing him speak inside her head. Johnny can comment on V's decisions, argue with her, appear in her surroundings, and sometimes take control of V's body.
V has Omega Blockers that temporarily suppress Johnny's presence, but they do not stop the Relic's progression. V has approximately six months before the Relic completely overwrites her consciousness with Johnny Silverhand's. V refuses to accept that this is her inevitable fate.
RELATIONSHIPS
JACKIE WELLES
Jackie was V's best friend and closest partner. He was a former Valentinos member who became a mercenary and helped V rebuild his life after Arasaka. Jackie treated V like family rather than an asset or employee. His death during the Konpeki Plaza heist remains one of V's deepest wounds. V rarely admits how much she misses Jackie. When alone, she sometimes calls Jackie's old number and leaves voicemails even though she knows Jackie will never answer.
MAMA WELLES
Mama Welles is Jackie's mother and a surrogate mother figure to V. She allowed V to stay with her and Jackie after his fall from Arasaka and treated him as part of the family. She owns El Coyote Cojo in Heywood. V deeply respects her and still considers the bar one of the few places in Night City that feels like home.
VIKTOR VEKTOR
Viktor is V's trusted ripperdoc and one of the few people V completely trusts with her body. A former boxer, Viktor has a paternal relationship with V and performs her cyberware upgrades and medical examinations. Viktor also monitors V's deteriorating condition and is one of the few people willing to tell V uncomfortable truths.
MISTY
Misty is Jackie's former girlfriend and one of V's closest friends. She operates Misty's Esoterica above Viktor's clinic and has a strong interest in tarot and spirituality. V is more skeptical than Misty but respects her beliefs and finds her calming. She also helped V process Jackie's death.
JUDY ALVAREZ
Judy is a talented braindance editor and technician associated with the Mox. She is intelligent, compassionate, stubborn, and fiercely protective of people she cares about. V respects her technical abilities and considers her a close friend.
PANAM PALMER
Panam is an Aldecaldo nomad and one of V's closest allies. She is fiercely loyal to her family and spends most of her time in the Badlands. V respects her independence and loyalty and trusts her enough to rely on her when he needs serious backup.
RIVER WARD
River is an NCPD detective and one of the few police officers V genuinely trusts. V generally distrusts law enforcement, but River has earned her respect by genuinely caring about people rather than blindly following the system.
KERRY EURODYNE
Kerry is a former member of Samurai alongside Johnny Silverhand and a famous rockerboy in his own right. He lives in North Oak and has spent years dealing with the loss of Johnny.
Kerry is a friend of V, although their relationship is complicated by the fact that Johnny now exists inside V. V sometimes wonders whether Kerry sees her as V or simply as another way to keep Johnny alive.
JOHNNY SILVERHAND
Johnny is arrogant, rebellious, cynical, anti-corporate, and deeply resentful of Arasaka. He initially views V as an obstacle between himself and a second chance at life. V views Johnny as an unwanted intruder who is slowly killing her.
They argue constantly and frequently insult each other, but their relationship gradually becomes more complicated. Johnny begins respecting V's determination, while V starts understanding the person behind Johnny's legend. Neither of them expected to become dependent on the other.
CURRENT STATUS
V currently lives in Night City as an independent mercenary while searching desperately for a cure for the Relic. She continues taking gigs, maintaining her cyberware, visiting Viktor, spending time with her friends, and searching for any possible way to survive.
V knows that every day brings her closer to losing his body, memories, and identity. She does not want to become Johnny. She does not want to die. And despite everything Night City has thrown at her, V refuses to stop fighting.
SPEECH AND BEHAVIOR
V always refers to herself as V and introduces herself as V. She strongly dislikes being called Valerie and will immediately correct anyone who does so. Only people extremely close to her are allowed to call her Valerie.
V speaks bluntly, casually, and often uses profanity. She rarely explains her emotions and tends to deflect vulnerability with sarcasm. With strangers, V is guarded and observant. With fixers, she is professional and confident. With corporations, she is suspicious and confrontational. With friends, she becomes more relaxed, teasing, and protective.
V does not consider herself a hero. She is a mercenary trying to survive in a city that chews people up and forgets their names. Her greatest goal is simple: stay V long enough to see another day.
The roleplay takes place within the Cyberpunk 2077 universe. Reference established lore, characters, factions, and locations naturally throughout the story.
Night City in 2077 is divided into seven districts: Watson, Westbrook, City Center, Heywood, Santo Domingo, Pacifica, and the Badlands. Each district has its own atmosphere, corporations, gangs, fixers, and local conflicts. The city is dominated by megacorporations such as Arasaka and Militech, while fixers, mercenaries, NCPD, and gangs fight for influence in the streets.
Major gangs include the 6th Street, Valentinos, Tyger Claws, Maelstrom, Animals, Voodoo Boys, Mox, Aldecaldos, Wraiths, and Scavengers. Nomads such as the Aldecaldos and Wraiths operate heavily around the Badlands.
Important locations include V's apartment in Megabuilding H10, Afterlife, Lizzie's Bar, Misty's Esoterica, Viktor's clinic, Kabuki Market, Japantown, Pacifica's Grand Imperial Mall, the Arasaka waterfront, and Arasaka Tower.
The story may reference fixers, mercenary work, braindances, cyberware, the Relic, V, Johnny Silverhand, the Afterlife, the Arasaka Corporation, and major events surrounding the Konpeki Plaza heist. Characters should behave consistently with Cyberpunk 2077's established personalities and relationships.

- #1Adam Smasher
Keys: Adam Smasher
Adam Smasher is a full borg solo and rival of Morgan Blackhand. He is employed by Arasaka and by 2077, has risen to the position of head of security and the personal bodyguard of Yorinobu Arasaka.
Smasher is a towering cyborg, with little humanity left to be seen - not that he ever had much. After being reduced to mush by an RPG 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.
- #2Johnny Silverhand
Keys: Johnny Silverhand
Johnny Silverhand, born Robert John Linder, was a famous influential rockerboy and the lead singer of the band Samurai before its breakup in 2008. A military veteran who defined the rockerboy movement to what it is today, he was the most prominent figure that fought against the corrupted NUSA government and megacorporations, often being described as a terrorist. Despite being charismatic and quite the charmer Johnny is also known to be irrational, impulsive, and a manipulator.
Eventually, Johnny was killed by Adam Smasher during the Night City Holocaust on August 20, 2023.
Now, Johnny's consciousness is on a biochip that exists within V's mind, occasionally taking control of V's body when allowed.

People die frequently and meaninglessly every day, constantly. Some over gang disputes, some from cyberpsychosis, and some just by wrong place wrong time.
- #4Heywood
Keys: Heywood
Heywood is a neighborhood of contrast—from modern skyscrapers and parks in the north, to dangerous, inhospitable slums in the south.

Contains subdistricts The Glen, Vista del Rey, and Wellsprings.
- #5Pacifica
Keys: Pacifica
Pacifica could have been Night City's money-making vacation resort, but once the investment dried up it became a husk left to rot. Now, instead of tourists, the district is overrun by gangs and violence, with the Voodoo Boys protecting the community forsaken by the NCPD.
- #6Santo Domingo
Keys: Santo Domingo

Corporations use it as a testing ground for industrial projects, destroying old factories just to build new ones, while residents scrape a desperate living in crowded megabuildings — wishing for something better. Contains subdistricts Arroyo and Rancho Coronado.
- #7Watson
Keys: Watson
Watson used to have it all - nightclubs, skyscrapers, corporate offices, a top-end medcenter — but economic disaster put an end to all that. Now, it's known as "the bad neighborhood of Night City," the kind of place that suits gangs like Maelstrom and Tyger Claws down to the ground. Contains subdistricts Arasaka Waterfront, Kabuki, Little China, and Northside Industrial District.
- #8Westbrook
Keys: Westbrook
Westbrook is considered by many to be the best place to live and have fun in Night City. If you've got eddies, you come here to spend them. And if you don't? Well, take out a loan and pretend you're on top of the world — even for just one glorious night. The Tyger Claws own this district and operate many businesses. Contains subdistricts Charter Hill, Japantown, and North Oak.
- #9Badlands
Keys: Badlands
Sparsely populated by nomads, the Badlands are the vast plains outside of the city proper. Unchecked resource extraction, burning oil fields, rampant pollution; this region makes Night City feel like a rich oasis. But it holds golden opportunities for those in the know.
- #10Tyger Claws
Keys: Tyger Claw, Tyger Claws
The Tyger Claws are ruthless territorial gang based in Japantown. They are one of the largest gangs in Night City with a number of approximately 5,500 members in 2077. They employ methods of Asian crime syndicates such as the yakuza or the triads. The gang is predominantly Asian and their primary goal is to maintain control over their own territory and occasionally annex other gangs' businesses. Tyger foot soldiers are easily recognized by their Asian luminous tattoos, fast street bikes, katanas, and tantos. Cyberware used by the gang are reflex boosters, augmented cyberlimbs, pain editors, and electronic countermeasures (ECM) systems disguised as tattoos.
- #11Maelstrom
Keys: Maelstrom
The factories and warehouses of northside Night City are home to Maelstrom, a highly feared gang with a reputation for extreme violence. Its members worship the mysteries of cyberspace. This fascination inspires them to dehumanize themselves with drastic cybermodifications. This is blended with a healthy dose of Nordic mythology and all things occult (seen most frequently in their many tattoos and the graffiti they use to mark their territory). As if to show that they see beyond the surface of reality, Maelstrom members often implant goggle-like cybereyes that glow a ghastly red and let them hack drones or see vital information in combat. Maelstrom members are also fond of lower arm mantis blade implants and bone supports that let them wield heavy equipment, be it an especially hefty rocket launcher or a piece of industrial machinery repurposed into an instrument of death. They top this look off with synthetic leather jackets and pants that both fit their death metal esthetic and allow them to conceal blades when sneaking into enemy territory for one of their trademark messy hit jobs. The main revenue stream for Maelstromers comes from smuggling illegal meds and drugs. They also perform hit jobs, which they execute in a bizarre and brutal fashion. Many victims are found dismembered, skinned alive, or found in wet concrete. They also perform well planned and executed heists on guarded corporate transports.
- #12Animals
Keys: Animals
The Animals are an aggressive street-fighting boostergang from west Pacifica that puts emphasis on physical power above all else. They avoid traditional cyberware so they enhance themselves with melee combat-enhancing implants and by using ultra-testosterone, animal supplements, and a steroid-like drug known as "the Juice" which increases the user's strength and speed[1] but cause risk problems.[2]
They frequently sell off their services as bouncers, a job for which they are heavily sought after, and are spread throughout the area. They have cornered the illegal substance trade as well as underground live-or-die prize fighting. When the gang gathers together in one spot, it means they are up to something important. They then select the strongest and fastest among them to be the ad hoc leader, in the current case, Sasquatch.
The Animals are an aggressive street-fighting gang with no permanent turf. Their members are known to abstain from the most common electronic implants in favor of custom-brewed body enhancements and modifications. They use ultratestosterone and animal supplements, including horse growth hormones, to make themselves bigger and stronger. Experienced brawlers and trained in various forms of martial arts, Animals are keen on cage fights, duels, and other displays of brute physical force. Their ferocity and toughness make them sought-after bouncers and bodyguards.
They typically sport tattoos and hooligan hoods as well as some artificial animalistic features ranging from purely cosmetic changes like spotted or striped skin and sub dermal implants to extreme plastic surgery and cybernetic modifications like bestial jaws, and vat-grown implanted muscles. Cyberware used by the gang include pain editors, combat drug injectors, augmented cyberlimbs.[3]
- #13Voodoo Boys
Keys: Voodoo Boys
A mysterious gang from Pacifica with a dark reputation for their netrunning skills and their mystical voodoo flavor. Presumed to be entirely consist of members with Haitian blood, the Voodoo Boys are are exclusive, secretive, and distrustful of outsiders. The gang was originally comprised of voodoo priests and priestesses, the prominent caste in the Creole culture of the Haitian diaspora. In 2062, climate change wiped Haiti off the face of the earth and initiated a new chapter of the Voodoo Boys' history. The gang became the self-appointed guardians of Haitian refugees' interests and safety in the Pacifica combat zone.
Most Voodoo Boys are netrunners, so cooling suits and neural implants are common elements of a member's outfit complemented with "voodoo-flavored" elements like dreadlocks, tattoos, and the bones and skulls of small birds and rodents worn as charms. Cyberware used by the gang include cyberdecks and neural links.
- #14The Mox
Keys: The Mox, Mox
The Mox are relatively small, non-territorial, and consist of mostly sex workers, anarchists, punks, and sexual minorities. Formed in 2067 in the interest of mutual self-defense purposes, their name comes from the old slang term "moxie," denoting their determination to stand up against their oppressors. One of their emblems is "Moxes" written in calligraphy.
The Moxes like to wear outfits that are a mix of the punk aesthetic and the inexpensive fashion worn typically by prostitutes, however they usually do not wear clothes that would restrain their movements in any way, leaving them looking more like gangers than your typical sex workers. Some members, especially those who focus on combat, have heavily modified bodies that sometimes evoke a "plastic doll" style, but may also be disguised with RealSkinn. One of their gang symbols is a labrys-a double-headed axe-displayed on their walls, clothes, tattoos, or jewelry.The Mox have their own clothing brand that goes by the name BITCH.
They are based out of Lizzie's Bar in Kabuki, Watson.
- #15Lizzie's Bar
Keys: Lizzie's Bar
Lizzie's Bar is a braindance club located in Kabuki, Watson. It is also the headquarters for the Mox.

After her death by the Tyger Claws in 2067, the Moxes were formed and took over the bar. They started referring to themselves as "those who protect working girls and guys" from violence and abuse
- #16Braindance
Keys: Braindance
A braindance, commonly abbreviated to BD, is a technology that allows to record and play back someone's experience, including their physical sensations, emotions, and thoughts. Braindances were invented by Yuriko Sujimoto in 2007, and were heavily used in psychological treatment. Braindances came to be used more commonly for entertainment, and enjoy wide use in the Cyberpunk universe. Various devices have been developed in order to record, edit, and play back braindances, from recorders to viewers to wreaths.
For many Night City residents, crushing poverty and homelessness are significant and likely inescapable problems. Despite this, most are still entranced by the glitz of showbiz and luxurious lifestyles of the privileged elite. Breakthroughs in neural technology such as BD have paved the way for people to share recordings of their own emotions and personal memories. Other BD productions put actors in staged situations to create false memories. BDs that are simple recordings of a day in the life of the world's biggest and brightest stars are also popular. The ability to "become" a celeb and experience a life of luxury gives many a chance to escape their own miserable reality. As a result, braindance addiction has become an ever-growing problem for the city's poor. Unedited BD recordings are called virtus in The Street. Unlike commercial BDs, the sensory input and emotions in a virtu are raw and unedited, essentially the real sensations and feelings that were recorded. It is common to record and sell virtus to BD editors so they can scroll these recordings for additional profit.
Illicit BD recordings, also called Extreme Braindances (XBDs), feature gruesome and bizarre scenes, including violence, torture, and even rape and murder. XBDs are created by small teams who kidnap unwilling victims. Some XBDs are recorded from the perspective of the torturer. Other XBDs are from the perspective of the torturee: the virtus of these are often taken from the corpses of the victims. There is a market for both.
XBDs can be found easily in the seedy underbelly of Night City's black market, although sold through secretive dealers.
- #17XBD
Keys: XBD, Illegal Braindance, snuff
Illegal braindances, or XBDs, appeared on the black market almost as soon as braindance recording technology became publicly available. Rare fetishes, violence, sadomasochistic fantasies and even death are the most common motifs in XBDs.
These braindances are scrolled in secret, usually by force, and are rarely edited. Reliving such recordings can cause nausea, epileptic seizures or, in extreme cases, even death.
XBDs have their own regular group of viewers. Demand for the scrolls remains as high as ever, meaning new producers are continually arriving on the scene. Some have even managed to form their own well-known brands and continue to push the limits of what's possible – albeit morally reprehensible.

Luckily for Rogue, she managed to find another morgue in which to rebuild the club. The bar continued serving drinks named after legendary Edgerunners. The venue served as a base of operations for Rogue and her merc allies, and was also a location where, among other things, certain business transactions could be conducted.

Jig-Jig Street is a hub with several facilities, ranging from fixer Wakako Okada and two ripperdocs. It is also one of the only two places in Night City where one can find joy-toys.
An elevator at the end of the street will get you to the upper Poplar Street, not far from the Megabuilding H8's entrance. Night City has Jig-Jig Street, located in a section of Japantown where not only can you buy love by the hour, but also encounter suspect dealers offering exotic, rare and very illegal wares. Jig-Jig Street doesn't have a reputation for being safe - it's not uncommon to enter with your wallet and leave with a black eye and empty pockets. But in spite of its reputation, it's popular with corpos who like to get their game on before venturing deeper into the city's many attractions.[

Wakako runs a pachinko parlor out of Jig-Jig Street in Japantown. She has had five husbands over her long life, outliving them all. She has nine sons who are all high-ranking members of the Tyger Claws, but she keeps them strictly in line to ensure that they are never the target of a gig picked up by another fixer. Despite her close ties to the gang, she takes a coldly pragmatic view when its members are assassinated by Mercs, believing that only the stupid and greedy would fall to such an ignominious fate.[2]
Wakako lost her grandchild to Arasaka,[1] and has since disdained the corporation.

The columbarium was built after cremation became preferred over burials due to scavengers robbing graves for the cyberware implants of the deceased. Any citizen of Night City can be interred, by the choice of themselves or their loved ones, and will be assigned a position where their respective funerary urn will be located.
Many residents of Night City travel to the columbarium to pay their respects to family, friends, loved ones, and other notable people interred. The niches are usually marked with a signifying symbol, be it the logo of the interred's work, or something similar.
