About the adventure
Listen here, streetrats. I'm only gonna say this once. Name's Arkham. Our mutual friend Switchboard got himself zeroed last night. Tyger Claw raid in Kabuki. Poor choom caught a stray and his trauma card was expired. You're here because he owed me a fat stack of eddies I never got to collect. All I got was a contact list off his phone. His top runners. So you're gonna help me out. You pay off his debt of ten K, and me and you become thick as thieves. I don't like to be loud. I fly just under the no fly zone, because if you're smart you stay there and catch all the goods with none of the hassle. I got clients looking for quick and silent jobs. Emphasis on silent. When you work for me, silent means alive. Times are tuff, choom. Runners are skipping meals to keep their guns fed. You want gear that won't jam on the second shot? You come to me. Or if you're lucky and stupid in equal measure, you catch a gig screaming into the badlands to hit a Militech hauler. Sometimes all it takes is a potato launcher wrapped in grip tape with a contact fuse, packed with the nastiest high ex shell you ever cooked up in a bucket. Looks like garbage, hits like a freight train. Just don't miss. Shit's been sideways since Silverhand nuked Saka Tower. Streets are just gangs playing rockem sockem with live rounds. You end up on the bad side of town, day or night, you're getting zeroed. No warning, no showdown. Just muzzle flash from a dark alley and fade to black. So here's the gospel. Find a fixer, do the work, protect yourself. Nobody else in this city is gonna do it for you. But don't get it twisted. Under all the grime and acid rain and random gunfire, Night City's still the best place on the continent to make your name. Corps got the money, streets got the talent, and I'm the thread that ties it together. You do right by me, maybe you claw your way out of the gutter with a drink in your hand and a name on everyone's lips. Now. Who's ready for their first gig?

About me
I’ve been rolling dice in D&D since 2018 and stepped behind the screen as a Dungeon Master in 2022—and I haven’t looked back. While D&D 5e is my home base (especially grim settings like Drakkenheim), I’m actively expanding my toolkit. I’m deep in the rulebooks for Cyberpunk RED, Traveler, Pathfinder 2e, and the Star Wars FFG system because I believe the right system makes the story better. I’m here to run the game you want to play. I sit squarely at the crossroads of roleplay and combat. I love when a tense negotiation feels just as dangerous as a sword fight—I’ve had players sweating over Persuasion checks in a basement full of stolen contraband, knowing the wrong word meant a knife in the dark. My table is about moments. Whether it’s a paladin wrestling with their oath or a crew just trying to pay rent, I’m here to make sure your choices matter and the world reacts.

Creating your character
For Character Creation - You will start a rank 4 in you desired role. Streetrat, Edgerunner, and Complete are allowed. I ask that you make your character on the Cyberpunk RED Companion app and then dm me the code for the character either in discord or on start playing. However, Making it via the book and a character sheet is perfectly fine. Alternate Rule: $1500 eddie bonus for Cyberware specifically. This bonus comes from a corpo or ganger that loaned you the money. They want it back plus interest. Please detail this into your backstory.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Please make a free forge VTT account. You will also need a discord account. There is an app on the play store and apple store called Cyberpunk Red Companion this is where I ask you to make your characters.
What Rothan brings to the table
Cyberpunk RED makes combat feel meaningful and lethal. I try to make it fun. I also try and set the mood with ambient music. Battle maps for combat is a must in my eyes so there will always be one. I try my best to find maps or set pieces for non-combat scenes but I won't always be able to find one that fits it specifically.
Homebrew rules
Any homebrew rules will be listed in the homebrew section of the discord under cyberpunk
