Character Profile

[netrunnerzero]

Zero Sinclair is an original character created for the game Cyberpunk Red. That's right, the same Cyberpunk that Projekt Red made a videogame out of and Netflix made an Anime out of. You can find out more about the Cyberpunk Universe here.

Zero was conceived as an Orbital (neither lead nor bad guy, but prominent throughout) and Confidante NPC to a player character, Marcus Stane, a young member of a wealthy Corpo family.  Making a journal for him was to help me get back into more writing and role playing.  He's a netrunner and sometime triggerman to the Stane Family.

 

1. Backstory: In crafting a character profile, you should be able to answer this list of questions: What is your character’s full name? What is their place of birth and birth date? Who are the family members who shaped this character’s life? When you think of key family members, give them their own profile including the character’s name, origins, and backstory

2. Physical description: You should know a lot about your character’s appearance and how their looks shape their interactions with others. Physical traits to mention include: eye color, hair color, hair style, physical mannerisms, body type, distinguishing features, coordination or lack thereof, fitness, and key weaknesses (like a maimed hand or an aversion to Kryptonite)

3. Personality traits: In addition to your character’s outward appearance, you need to know what makes them tick. What is their personality type? Are they funny? Do they have a temper? Are they motivated to protect a loved one—perhaps even an unrequited love? Do they have particular virtues? Bad habits? Any fears or phobias

4. Typical routine: As part of your brainstorm, you’ll also want to fill in information about your character’s daily routine. What kind of activities does your character like? Who are their best friends? Their enemies? What’s their marital status? What’s their favorite food, favorite book, and favorite movie?
