NO COVERAGE | Cyberpunk RED Trauma Team Campaign

Creating your character

Character creation will be done together over Discord as well as during a Session 0. A questionnaire will be handed out to help you flesh your character's story out. We will be using Edgerunner or "Complete Package" systems to create our characters with a lot of options and customization.

Preparing for the session

Before the first session, players should: * Join the campaign Discord server * Complete the RPG consent checklist * Read the campaign primer * Fill out the character questionnaire. You do not need to own the Cyberpunk RED books. Rules explanations, character-creation assistance, maps, tokens, and campaign materials will be provided. A microphone is required. Webcams are not used.

What Dopefish brings to the table

Character Voices: I bring Night City's characters to life with distinct voices, personalities, motives, and attitudes. Patients, gang leaders, corporate representatives, neighborhood organizers, and fixers will remember how you treated them. Rule of Cool: I respect the rules, but I prioritize fun, creativity, and the brutal style of Cyberpunk. Clever plans and memorable ideas will always be given a fair chance to work. Improvisation: The campaign will respond to your decisions. Calls can be refused, patients can become allies or enemies, and entire neighborhoods may change depending on who you save and what you expose. Beginner-Friendly: New to Cyberpunk RED? No problem. I will help with character creation and teach the rules during play without expecting you to memorize the system beforehand. Custom Maps and Tokens: Expect custom battlemaps, location art, character tokens, handouts, vehicles, and visual material designed specifically for the campaign. Tactical Combat: Combat will reward positioning, preparation, cover, teamwork, and knowing when to retreat. Many encounters will involve protecting or extracting someone rather than simply eliminating every enemy. Emergency-Response Mechanics: The campaign will include bespoke systems for dispatch calls, patient conditions, triage, medical supplies, ambulance upgrades, neighborhood access, and the reputation of NO COVERAGE. A Living Night City: The people you rescue will survive, remember you, and continue living their lives. Enemies may become patients, patients may become contacts, and a single decision can reshape the crew's relationship with an entire neighborhood.

How Dopefish creates a safe table

I use an RPG Consent Checklist before the game to establish boundaries, lines, and veils. This helps make sure everyone is on the same page about tone and content from the start. At the table, I run an open-door policy - if something makes you uncomfortable, you can reach out to me at any time. It's always my intention for everyone at the table to be comfortable with the campaign. I also support simple in-game check-ins (message, chat, or speaking up) if something needs to be adjusted in the moment. We'll go over expectations in Session 0, including tone, boundaries, and how to communicate if something isn't working. Aftercare is available as needed. If a session hits heavy themes, we tend to have a quick debrief after the session as a check-in, and adjust as needed.
