Never Fade Away - Learn Cyberpunk 2020 With Johnny Silverhand

Creating your character

We will be using pregenerated characters of Johnny Silverhand and his crew. Prior to the session start, players should DM me ranking all four characters in order of how much they want to play them, with 1 being the one you want to play most. Not everyone can play Silverhand, but I'll assign characters so everyone gets to play someone they're interested in. The characters are... Johhny Silverhand - Ex-Central American vet, now Rockerboy, Johnny is the leader of a cult punk rock band called Samurai. He's known for his musical skill, his compelling songs, and a history of trashed relationships. Thompson - A top reporter for World News Service, Thompson has a running feud with the infamous Arasaka Corporation, whom he suspects of having murdered his wife. He will do anything to get the elusive security firm, anything. Thompson also served as a correspondent in the same war as Johnny, and followed his platoon for a while. Rogue Amendiares - This hard-bitten solo and her partner Santiago, are edgerunners. In fact, the word on the Street is that they're the best. Rogue and Johnny were an item for a few months before their clashing lifestyles, egos, and tendencies for violence erupted in a breakup that got Samurai blacklisted from a certain venue in Atlanta. Rogue sure as hell hasn't forgiven Johnny for his behavior, but she also regrets her own part in the affair, and isn't likely to turn down a chance for them both to make amends and earn some redemption. Santiago Palmer - Santiago is a Nomad who runs with the Aldecaldo Pack; displaced farmers thrown off their land by the Corporations. Santiago has a reputation as a paramour, chasing women, men, and anyone else he finds attractive. Pursuing Rogue right after her very public breakup was not the brightest idea Santiago has ever had, it nearly got him shot. On the plus side, it also got him a job as Rogues business partner, and the two have become good friends.

Preparing for the session

You will need a discord account and either the desktop app or browser extension installed, as well as a microphone. Video is not required. I will provide invite links to a discord group for the campaign, which players will need to join. You will need an account of Roll20, I will provide a link to create an account via DM and on the discord. You do not need to know any of the rules of Cyberpunk 2020 beforehand, I will be teaching you as we play. Prior to the session start, players should DM me ranking all four characters in order of how much they want to play them, with 1 being the one you want to play most. Not everyone can play Silverhand, but I'll assign characters so everyone gets to play someone they're interested in.

What Gwilym Evans brings to the table

I have custom maps and tokens of Roll20 for the one-shot. My GMing style emphasizes the rule of cool. In Cyberpunk, looking good while doing something is just as important as actually doing it. I want to encourage players to take risks and play stylishly.

How Gwilym Evans creates a safe table

I will ask all players for their lines and veils, hard and soft boundaries when it comes to topics covered in the campaign. During sessions, players will be able to inform me if we are approaching or crossing one of their boundaries with an X, M, or O in chat, or using an anonymous alternative that I will have set up. We will take a 15 minute break about 2 hours into the session, in addition, players are welcome to step away whenever they need without judgement.
