Approach

What interests you most about playing this character in this game?
I've been itching to play Vincent again for a while and I really miss rping. I really enjoy the setting here and the marrying and yet split of technology and magic. A lot of the themes of the game are a lot of the themes I like to play around with when it comes to my Cyberpunks in general. Most of the primary arcs I work towards for them is overcoming and healing the immense amounts of trauma they have from Night City and their previous lifestyles, and learning how to trust people and just become their healthiest and most able selves. For Vincent in particular he will have to deal with with losing Johnny as well and that's always fun, and figuring out who he is again without Johnny since they had become so entwined over the course of the game. A lot of the themes of the game and the general setting just feels good with relation to Vincent and I'm just excited to be here.

How do you see your character adjusting to/approaching the game world?
He will definitely be approaching the game world as someone who grew up in the streets of Night City: he'll feel more at home in criminally active areas and red light districts and the like. Other than that, he will definitely find this to be simultaneously familiar while also being completely alien. The technology and neon and dense city is something he's very comfortable with, but the magic is new and the fact that there are so many plants and the place is so clean. He definitely thinks that the niceness in terms of how pretty things are and the general starting accommodations are a facade over a rotted core like Night City and its denizens. He'll play nice until he figures out his position in this society and then adjust accordingly.

What do you see your character finding most interesting about the setting/game premise?
As much as Vincent pretends he doesn't care about politics, he'll find the push and pull between magic and tech, tradition and the future really interesting. It will be interesting to see how they interact with each other, especially in the context of the different institutions. He is less aware of this but he will also be interested in the stratification of wealth in this city and how it takes care of its poor and disadvantaged, since Night City laughs at and spits in the face of the poor.

Anything else?

Re: weapons, I plan for him to only show up with his pistol (no ammunition, SMART capability doesn't matter since his cyberware's all inactive per nerfing) and for him to otherwise arrive with his cat.
