Four 6s means you got a critical XD
What did you manage to get? I'm imagining your OC doing a Sailor Moon pose and firing her iron into a mook now XD
I didn't get a chance to RP a pose or throw in a cool one liner 馃槄. Combat went so fast that my character just
upholstered her Hello Cutie
did an Aimed Shot at the booster who fired at out Rockerboy (held action)
turned and fired another shot into the booster currently brawling with our Rockerboy (1st in line for the next combat round)
Combat over
Our DM awarded me reputation cos she and my party members thought my Netrunner looked very badass when she defended her choom 馃槄
I passed the DV for a head shot on the first booster and rolled 4x6s, so I got to inflict crit brain injury (the NPC actually kinda flatlined so...)
I rolled 2x6, 4, 3 for the second booster, so I managed to dismember his arm 馃榾
My character is built for aimed shots, I'm not surprised I hit. But I didn't expect 4x6s 馃槀
Tumblr media
No, it's just our Rockerboy using his Brawling skill 馃槄
Our party was supposed to meet with a Media at the Afterlife (Media is our 7th occasionally present party member). A gang of boosters appeared and challenged our Rockerboy to a one on one brawl using just cyberware
^ my Netrunner was 100% against this. I told him to decline but he wouldn't listen. Like, they told you to leave your guns on the table and you frigging listened to them??
^ the entire party didn't take the boosters seriously too. Instead of rolling initiative they were RPing 馃槕. Their characters were literally taking bets on who would win the fight 馃槕. I was the only one on standby with a held action 馃槕
^ Exec is such a huge asshat that he even told the boosters Rockerboy was recovering from a stab wound... so guess where Rockerboy got hit/shot 馃槕
If you're worried about our Rockerboy, don't bother. He's fine 馃槕
My friend forgot to swap out his higher SP jacket after a job (it doesn't look as fashionable as his casual jacket), so the bullet didn't really hurt him that badly
My Netrunner even kicked his gunshot wound to show how annoyed at him she is and he's still alive 馃槕

Could you share some Johnny (and/or V) headcanons? In exchange here are some of mine:
I see Johnny as being the kind of dude who is incredibly particular about some things involving himself but not so much about other. Like he obsessively takes care of his hair but will forget to eat for a few days sometimes.
He definitely paints his nails (only black or rly dark colors) and wears eyeliner. My v personally does her makeup every day and she offers to do eyeshadow on him and he loves it 10/10 and learns how to do it on himself.
He snores (and sleep mumbles sometimes). I also see him sleeping all spread out and taking up as much room as possible. Or sometimes all he wants to do is hold onto V as tightly as possible. You may have talked about this before, but I鈥檓 not sure. Love your posts btw!!
Ahhhhh thank you so much!!!!!! And I love these headcanons so muchhhhhh!!!!
And I deffo agree with Johnny + fingernail polish + eyeliner; just rockerboy aesthetic whatcha gonna do. I additionally, think he did some sloppy eyeliner as a teenager and then post him coming back from his time in the army; he obviously didn鈥檛 really wear it then. So, definitely as he came back after and got back to Samurai and hanging out with the band. Kerry especially, but Denny and Nancy as well helped him with putting it on better so it didn鈥檛 look so half assed and faded. My V also likes makeup and plays with putting it on Johnny,聽
I definitely think Johnny is a little protective of the length of his hair, (though that may be me projecting my love of his long hair) but I also just gonna say it; probably a little greasy. Concerts, shows, especially in small cramped dives, make you sweat like a motherfucker. And Johnny mostly uses cheapo bath products, shampoo, conditioner; or stuff he stole from motels. Our boy imo could afford to use some nicer stuff; my V also gives him so much shit for still having dirt on his engram form, probably smelling more than a little like sweat and smoke since his engram seems to mostly be based on his status midst the attack on the tower. My V threatens to hose him down like a mud covered dog a lot and given he uhhh jumps into the shower with her a few times as an engram; she鈥檚 now fully convinced he鈥檚 holding onto the dirt on his engram form out of spite for her complaining.聽
While not every night or constant, I do think Johnny struggles with nightmares sometimes. Between his war service, losing Alt, losing his arm, and mikoshi, then everything with V, the man has had some serious trauma that sometimes comes to him when he sleeps. They range from memories of stuff he endured to dreams of things he fears happening. In those cases, he doesn鈥檛 get as much sleep and definitely clings to V a bit tighter.聽
V can basically always tell when Johnny鈥檚 getting a little frustrated and agitated, and learns how to get to him before that bubbles up. Because usually, when he鈥檚 starting to feel tense, uncomfortable, agitated; he鈥檒l start doing his head bumps against the wall is the big one. (Like how he does it before he goes aggro on V in the beginning, where he just repeatedly thumps his head back against the wall) if he鈥檚 not against a wall or near one, his need to do something with his hands gets worse, he starts fidgeting with his rings more, with his old friend鈥檚 dogtags or if V鈥檚 given it to him, the bullet necklace. He鈥檚 always someone who generally has to be doing something with his hands most of the time, but when he鈥檚 starting to feel tense or uneasy, you can see that getting worse and more fidgety.聽
Worst guy to play games with; card games, board games, or competitive vidya games. He cheats like its his job, not above smacking or disconneting someone鈥檚 controller in mario party, and is constantly taunting and teasing people. If he hasn鈥檛 been yelled at by everyone by the end of game night, it was a waste.聽
I feel like he鈥檚 not a huge fan of sweets; he likes his junk food as much as the next person and does not eat healthy by any stretch of the imagination. But he prefers salty or savory garbage. He doesn鈥檛 mind chocolate now and again (either milk or dark chocolate preferred)聽 but for the most part he鈥檚 grabbing chips and synth beef jerky over a candy bar. (Meanwhile my V loves marshmallows, honey, whip cream, and everything sugary sweet and he hates it)聽
I hate to do this to my fellow Johnny simps; but Johnny鈥檚 the kind of guy who鈥檇 have no shame pissing in the shower. Has probably pissed in a fair amount of sinks too. Just, look at him, you know I鈥檓 right.聽

I don't like where things are going in my Cyberpunk Red campaign 馃槪
Our party's Exec is still shell-shocked cos his only 2 friends (his bodyguard NPC and the exec NPC from the same department as him) got executed in front of him by enforcers from our own corp...
He can cry if he wants, but do it AFTER we're safe. I will NOT allow him to drag the party to their deaths with him. I need him to tell me what's going on so I can at least cover our tracks if needed
I managed to knock some sense into him and got a vague summary of the situation:
I guess was kinda right, his 2 friend were framed by his superior for a crime against Arasaka they didn't commit
I don't know the full details, but his superior (the same superior I caught Exec tipping off during our job) throw Exec's friends under the bus to protect himself
When Exec lead the enforcers to us, he thought the enforcers were supposed to back his friend and his hired mercs (Rockerboy and Solo??) up
But instead of doing that, they opened fire on everyone, then charged his friend with treason against Arasaka and eliminated him
^ based on that, I know our party isn't in immediate danger cos this wasn't an attack aimed at us. Rockerboy and Solo just unfortunately got caught in the crossfire
Exec isn't in danger too cos his superior gave him a promotion for a "job well done"
What I'm worried about is Exec's reaction to this situation. Now that the shock is starting to fade... he's seething 馃槪
He asked me to arrange another meeting with my big bro... I know what he's thinking 馃槪. He wants to switch departments and work for my sponsor/dad now 馃槪
Arasaka is full of infighting at the lower ranks, he's out for revenge against his superior... but I don't want him to get involved with my big bro and dad 馃槪
My dad expects perfection and absolute loyalty... if Exec messes up my bro will remove him
Like sorry for not wanting my choom to get flatlined??
I didn't want to arrange a meeting, but Exec threatened to tell Rockerboy who my dad is, and he said he'll also tell my brother I left Night City with Rockerboy last week @_@
I'm stuck, I got to do what he says or my bro will go berserk @_@. I left the city without permission and I'm hanging out with a rockerboy, my bro will kill someone @_@
