Cyberpunk:2096
SEOUL, 2096. The Kirisawa Group controls access, medical care, and transportation authentication in the city.
At the Mapo reception center, past midnight. The slip printed with your identification reads: Access rights scheduled to expire at 06:00. The screen next to it displays an even stranger record: 00:06, the objection filed in your name has been withdrawn.
Cherry, the woman who sent you a copy of the reservation. She claims this withdrawal record is the first she's ever seen. Will you trust the copy, suspect her, or file a new official objection? Nothing has been decided yet.
WHERE DO YOU COME FROMCorporate Insider — A pretext to access Gangnam's internal inquiry and audit logs. However, traces of your access will remain.
Cyberpunk Street Technician — The time of replication and witnesses within Seongdong's mesh network. You must verify the source before revealing your colleagues.
Nomad Clan — The movement logs and offline contact network of Guro/Geumcheon. You need consent to use residents' records.
Your origin can be decided later. You decide your name, gender, relationships, and your first action.
SEVEN PEOPLE OF SEOUL
CHERRY · 29 · Former Kirisawa Auditor Recovery Specialist
The first companion, holding a copy of the deletion request. She tells you what was sent, but not who withdrew it.
SORA · 34 · Yeongdeungpo Clinic Director
Paper medical records that remain even when the city network goes down. She protects not only evidence but also patients' names.
SEKYUNG · 31 · Yongsan Independent Records Manager
Preserves a different timeline from corporate records. Someone who precisely identifies the scope of what records can prove.
NOISE · Seongdong Mesh Network Techie
Connects the sources of replicated times. More important than quick access is not exposing colleagues.
LOOP · Guro/Geumcheon Route Broker
Knows the paths that remain even when the city gates are closed. Handles movement logs and people's consent together.
JINWOOK · 38 · Kirisawa Internal Auditor
Clues to trace the reception lines within the company. A single piece he holds does not confirm the responsible party.
REN · 43 · Kirisawa Data Operations Head
A corporate executive facing the responsibility line for deletion requests. Between his wife and negotiations, written records are needed more than words.
The new intro, 〈The Night the City Erases You〉, begins at the Mapo reception center at 00:07. Respond to Cherry's questions as you normally would.
“Let's check the withdrawal process first.” / “Where did you get your copy?” / “Can I file a new objection now?”
You can continue the investigation even if you suspect her or refuse her companionship. A city chase where you compare records, meet people, and decide whether to reveal or protect evidence. Being declared dead means the termination of city service access rights, not physical death.
