First:

Brudi, I built a whole jungle beach and you almost see nothing of it when I took the pics lol. Anyhow I have my own private big jungle beach now bc I managed after a few fails to save it as a preset! Idk if I can edit it afterwards but I'll find out. It's funny bc while creating/building it didn't seem so big/huge/wide but when taking photos it's like the water is 150m away from their place they had set up the chairs lol. I just pretend it was falling tide, alright.

Here's a behind the scenes of it:

somehow I imagine V to do this all day in his net world. Like he has a program similar like Minecraft but more realistic where he constantly builds stuff like that but with a vaporwave-y touch ofc.

Now back to the pics: Yes, even my boys are sometimes just boys!

Also still. Yes! Ryder goes out into the sun. Yes, he's got more of a tan than Vijay and yes, Ryder likes this colorful pride floatie. And yes, Ryder has a good time. This is me trying to show more that Ry is not always the angry cool raver dude™ in all black. I still think he's interpreted a bit wrongly by most, like I know everyone sees a different Ryder than I do. With the right people aka closest friends around he is having a good time as he trained to ignore Beast away and as long as the mood is good, Ry feels good (ofc he keeps also playing fine a lot).

Also Vijay on the orca floatie is GOALS, okay!

PS.: It was not V who built that perfect sand castle — it was Ryder who refined it bc V's base was more like some piles of sand (he's more keen to built stuff like that in the net rather than in real life).

And the water is not blue because well … Night City is a fucking hell of a polluted city …

How Brianne operates as an Arasaka director with more benign tactics:

Brianne is a legacy hire, channeled into position after position since she started her Arasaka career. Her father is a big wig in Arasaka (COO of Arasaka Bank, ECC). Her uncle is the president of the London branch. Her position was assured and seemingly untouchable in her branch, especially if you didn’t want to provoke the ire of higher ups.

Her wealth bracket put her a step ahead with a top of the line education. Boarding schools, tutors, graduate school and securing several internships under her father before being contracted. She still worked her way up the corporate ladder as others, but with assurances in place it was a far easier stride.

She is a restless worker. First in the office, last to leave. She keeps her dept in order, makes other depts accountable for their actions (even Counterintel), delegates and defines what needs to be done and it’s gained her recognition and promotions.

Instead of threats, Brianne hands out favors. Brianne’s empathy contributes to this approach. Whenever Brianne discovers someone is needlessly struggling (during evaluations, for instance), she tries to help. Whether that is by pulling some internal strings, reworking evaluations to offset some flags and alleviate pressure, or tapping into her connections. But these favors are like cards. It might not have a price set on it, but they are dealt if her position is threatened.  

She collects dirt on everyone. She employs a fixer (and in 2077 hires mercs directly) to periodically supply her intel on other higher ups and their and her own immediate subordinates. Anyone who could prove the most threatening to her position. Anything valuable is kept on file to use as collateral if necessary for blackmail. She doesn’t make the first move, but she’s ready to counter theirs.

Knowing their secrets reminds her to keep her own life and relations bleach clean and limited so her competitors have nothing to use against her or twist. It really dictates her social life or lack there of. And the lack thereof also stems from the lack of free time a corpo actually has when considering long work hours, especially as a higher up (100+ a week).

The Old Blood: Vampire Hunters of Night City

Based on my Cyberpunk RED 2076-2077-era campaign: The Old Blood: Vampires of Night City, based entirely on Maximum Mike's conspiracy rantings from Morro Rock Radio, featuring such 'original' ideas as:

Vampires

Werewolves

Vampire Hunters

Corpos being secretly vampires

Nomads who are secretly werewolves

Cops who are convinced the vampires are just very cannibalistic cyberpsychos and proceed to lose entire MAX-TAC squads to these preternatural monsters.

Several done to death tropes as seen in pop culture including: The Vampire Diaries, Dracula, Twilight and other pulpy supernatural nonsense.

Wow, very original, very unique.

My bs Jimmy Kurosaki bs (backstory obvs) ✨✌️✨

Notes: Jimmy's debut in canon is 2076. Age is unknown, but I'm basing his age off his appearance on the assumption that he doesn't have any implants that slow his physical aging. Looking at Kerry and Rogue in Cyberpunk 2077, they appear to be in their 50s to 60s, but they're both in their late 80s, walking around like 30-somethings. Of course, Jimmy may have had some additional cosmetic surgery done other to his face, other than his nose and chin 🤷‍♀️. To me, he looks to be 35 - 45, tho I'm taking the middle age, so 40.

Jimmy was born in Japantown, Night City, to a couple who were a part of the Tyger Claws. His parents were mainly braindance (BD) editors, tho his mother was more focused on trafficking for extreme braindances (XBDs), drug production and being a hooligan on the streets. His father was the expert at producing the edits for the XBDs. Due to his mother's drug addiction, he was mainly raised by his father, often accompanying him to work. Jimmy often witnessed his father being abused at work. Most of the time he would be entertained by member of Tyger Claws or was given BDs to watch while his father was busy with work. When he was around five years old, his.mother died of a drug overdose.

From the age of six, he was taught how to edit braindances by his father, much to his father's dismay, as he did not want to expose his son directly and emotionally to the violent and sexual nature of the braindances he had to edit. To compromise, Jimmy was taught to edit more tame BDs such as Tyger Claw highway getaways and chases, and the occasional act of physical violence, like a person mugging and beating them up. His talents were soon recognised by high ranking members, and wanted Jimmy to focus on editing and tuning XBDs - his age was no longer considered despite his father's protests. They were widely successful.

When he was around ten, his father quietly stole from Tyger Claws, attempting to sell Jimmy's edits so that he could make enough money to have him and Jimmy leave Night City, and in turn, Tyger Claws. Realising that his edits were sold for rather high prices due to their demand, Jimmy believed in his own talents and believed he could carve his own path to success, not live in poor conditions with his father. Within six months of his father selling some of Jimmy's edits, certain Tyger Claw heads found out. One day, whilst the two were editing, his father was approached by a couple members and escorted out of the studio. That was the last time Jimmy ever saw him again. Orphaned at ten, Jimmy took residence with his cousin and family, members of Tyger Claws.

Staying on their good side, Jimmy gave into their exploitation of him, continuously producing quality BDs and XBDs alike that was quickly sought after. He eventually returned to his childhood home when he was fifteen and finally started being paid for his work. His desire to leave and become successful never left him. Whilst creating XBD edits for Tyger Claws, he would create one version for Tyger Claws and a separate version for himself, ones which he would sell off under the alias of Mr Kurosaki. His plan was to eventually leave the Tyger Claws, Night City and run run his own private studio, creating successful commercial BDs before delving into custom BDs and even XBDs. He even let his cousin know about his plans as he knew he shared the same desire to eventually leave as well.

During a little mission, his cousin managed to retrieve a scroll from a cyberpsycho killed and harvested. Instead of passing this to the producer to view, he passed this to Jimmy who then edited the BD and sold it on the black market. It became successful to the point it caught the attention of high ranking Tyger Claws members, particularly the producer. They eventually learn that the XBD edit was created by Jimmy, soon learning that the other BDs under his alias was made by him as well. They decided not to execute him due to his talent, however, he still received punishment. He was escorted to and from him the studio to his apartment and has had TC members keep an eye on him since. All profits he gained were stripped from him, having him survive on an allowance of 300 Eurobucks a week. And took to top it all off, he was also handed an XBD scroll of his cousin's execution to edit.

After his cousin's passing, Jimmy did his best to butter up to the higher ranking members, even going as far as pretending to not care about his cousin's death, trying his best to gain the their trust again. Despite his efforts, he was still treated horribly and exploited for his talents.

Until one day, at twenty years old, enough was enough. He managed to sneak an XBD he created (was already on the market) in exchange for an EMP grenade. When he entered the studio the next day, when he was sure everyone was distracted, he set off the grenade, affecting those within the vicinity of the explosion. He made a run for it. As he exited the building, some of Tyger Claw members chase after him. As Jimmy runs for his life thru Japantown, he collides into Monsoon who was happily walking the streets eating ramen.

Dax "Zero" Renner (OC)

This is a long (but in a nutshell) description on my OC, Dax, hopefully he would go well within the world of Cyberpunk. (I like to make up stories on the lives of random NPCs and also make a custom headcannon for my own V variants, it helps me maintain a working mind haha. All photos are taken by me.

Anyway, please enjoy this little description on this character! 💛

Early Life

Dax "Zero" Renner was born in 2047 in the gritty streets of Heywood, Night City, into the world of gangs, smuggling, and crime. Raised by a single mother who worked long shifts as a waitress in Kabuki, Dax grew up fending for himself and quickly learned the value of loyalty, respect, and survival in the urban jungle. His natural talent for negotiation, combined with his fearless demeanor, attracted the attention of the local Tyger Claw gang at a young age.

By the time he was 18, Dax had earned his stripes with the Claws, rising through the ranks as an efficient enforcer and tactician. He gained the street name "Zero" for his precision and cold demeanor during assignments—his hits were clean, his negotiations airtight, and his presence left a lasting impact.

Major Turning Point

Jun was a bright spot in Dax's otherwise grim world. A soft-spoken artist and netrunner, Jun offered Dax a glimpse of a life outside of gang violence. They met in Kabuki’s underbelly, and against all odds, their bond deepened. Jun saw past Dax’s violent persona, and in return, Dax found in Jun a sense of belonging he had never experienced with the Tyger Claws.

For a few years, Dax attempted to balance his dual life as a Tyger Claw enforcer and a lover seeking peace in Jun’s arms. But in a world like Night City’s, happiness was a fragile, fleeting thing.

The turning point in Dax’s life came in 2074, when Jun was brutally murdered. The circumstances surrounding Jun’s death were never fully clear, but one thing was: the Tyger Claws were responsible. Some say Jun had uncovered secrets about the Claws' growing interest in illicit cyberware and black-market operations that were too dangerous to let slide. Others whispered it was a message sent directly to Dax, warning him about his growing independence.

Heartbroken and filled with rage, Dax severed all ties with the Tyger Claws. He hunted down those responsible for Jun's death, eliminating key Claw members in a violent spree. In the aftermath, he burned his former gang connections and disappeared from the scene for over a year, adopting the moniker “Zero” in full—a man with nothing left to lose.

Rise as a Fixer

By 2076, Dax reemerged in Kabuki, but this time as a Fixer. Using the connections and street smarts he had developed during his time with the Tyger Claws, Zero quickly established himself as a neutral force in Kabuki's underworld. Though his network wasn’t as large as some of the more well-known Fixers, Dax’s reputation for getting things done and maintaining order in the chaotic district of Kabuki grew rapidly.

Dax uses his position not just to broker deals and contracts but also to destabilize the Tyger Claws' operations in Kabuki. Behind the scenes, he wages a personal war against the gang, striking their operations whenever he sees an opportunity. Though no longer the cold, calculating enforcer of his youth, Dax still uses violence when necessary, targeting any Tyger Claw member who steps out of line or tries to gain too much influence in his territory.

As of 2079, Dax continues to hold sway in Kabuki, quietly ensuring that the Tyger Claws never fully regain their grip on the district. While some consider him a hero for standing up against the gang, others see him as just another Fixer playing the long game. Regardless, Dax’s name is spoken in hushed tones throughout the city, a reminder that even in a place like Night City, some people still fight for something more than just power.

His vendetta against the Tyger Claws remains ongoing, and though he’s often questioned whether his war is worth it, the memory of Jun’s death is a constant reminder of what he lost—and what he’s willing to destroy.

me casually collecting verse ideas for gabriel, for the first time;

verse where firelight is more than just a hacker / online identity, but a fully fledged vigilante

verse with the Bad Ending, where for /reasons/, gabriel becomes the green goblin of 2099

just a general cyberpunk 2076 au, where gabriel is a netrunner, since it's such a perfect fit tgyhuj
