Hi. A friend told me to see you. I hear you need stuff, right?

Sure, yes, all right. Don’t be so shy, chombatta. Keep cool. This little thingy makes it impossible to overhear us. Relax! But then you don’t look like you are after Dowers. I guess you need Speed, Man. Am I right? I have it all. ALL. You just need to tell me what you want.

– at a corner near you.

This is the ultimate and complete “BIG BOOK OF DRUGS” based on Ocelot’s Drug Lab 101. I guess it can be used with normal Cyberpunk 2020, too. Check it out!

My tip: If your characters won’t use drugs ‘coz their players are just some middle class pussies, give your Boosters all those nice drugs. As NPCs they don’t really have to worry about side effects. If little 10-year-old Billy high on Lace shoots faster then the partys solo, your players will reconsider… Especially if little Bill is one hell of a shooter with his drug-boosted REF… Remember: Drugs are the poor mans cyberware.
