About the adventure

Night City isn’t just the City of Dreams, it’s a city of stories. Grand adventures. Nukes in Arasaka Tower. Cyberpsychos rampaging while the NCPD turns a blind eye. Corpos tearing off their masks. These are the stories everyone knows, the ones that make the headlines and light up the screamsheets. But not every story shakes the city to its core. No one talks about the edgerunner who fought off a gang to protect their block. The one who saved a kid from a ganger's wrath. To Night City, that’s nothing. Just another day. But to that child? That edgerunner didn’t just save their life they saved their entire world. That’s what Hope Reborn is about. It’s not about toppling megacorps or rewriting history. It’s about fighting for the forgotten, the people who need you most. The city won’t remember your name. But the people you save? They will. Your choices will echo in their lives long after the smoke clears. Because in Night City, fighting the corps is one thing. Fighting for the small things, for the people, for those whose whole world is what you’re fighting for, that’s something else entirely. And sometimes, that’s the only fight that matters.

About me

Hey! My name is Sam, I've been playing TTRPG's for awhile now, mostly in Westmarches but I've always wanted to try proper campaigns. I have GMed for DND 5e, Arcane Arcade Fallout, Mutants and Masterminds, Call of Cthulhu and most recently Cyberpunk Red. Hopefully we can all have fun, that's what really matters. I don't like photo's of myself so here's my cat! If you need more cat photos before making your decision I have loads, and his name is Emmet! I also have a Katy!

I had the pleasure of joining Sam for a short Cyberpunk module and found it to be a very welcoming experience. He always approached his game with a calm, relaxed manner where fun was paramount. He ran a well-paced, entertaining adventure with an emphasis on the Rule of Cool™ and cheerfully allowed the players free reign to make hilariously terrible choices! Overall, a very fun and engaging GM whom I would recommend to any player!

Enjoyable games, especially if you don't mind a bit of silly off topic discussion.

I've roleplayed with this guy for years, he's actually quite good! His roleplays are a bit complex at first, but he's really good at helping you learn!

Character creation
Creating your character

Character Creation can be completed before Session 0, if not I will help anyone with completing their character during session 0, or after it if needed. All books will be available and I can provide any you might need, except for the Edgerunners Mission Kit and Breaking Your Stuff DLC, which we will not be using.

What to expect
Preparing for the session

All that's needed is a mic, discord, and you! Everything else can be sorted out after you get here, but if you want to be prepared, reading through the corebook, a character idea, and a Roll20 account all help, but I can do that with you when you arrive!

What Sam brings to the table

Art, art, art. I really, really like art. I've collected a lot, and I mean a lot of art for characters, NPC's, animals and even some maps. Do you want to be a military man, or NCPD I've got it, you want to be an exec I've got it, you name it, I've got it, and if I don't I will get it. Alongside that, I also have a few pregen characters, and concepts, so if you don't have any ideas, don't worry I will. Cyberpunk Red leans very much into rule of cool, if you can explain how you want to do something, then you can do it, maybe with a roll. As long as there is a way, you can do it. Well I am a fan of custom items/inventions and will have some available do not feel a need to use them, you can use what you want, and if you want to try and invent something just bring it to me.

Homebrew rules

Homebrew rules will be discussed during Session 0. Some that will be discussed include whether we will be using Night City Tarots, or how we will use Luck.

How Sam creates a safe table

I always intend to keep my messages open for whenever you or someone else needs to tell me of anything whether before, after or during a session, I always want you to feel comfortable while on or off my table. We will also be discussing any lines, limits, triggers during session 0.
