The four Horsemen – A Cyberpunk 2020 Adventure

THE FOUR HORSEMEN

Author: unknown

Note: This adventure works best if one of the PCs has made friends with a nomad pack or there is a nomad in the group.
As the group is licking their wounds from the last job, they will be approached By what appears to be a humanoid dragon (exotic). The Nomad, or friend of nomads, will recognize this person as Dragon, a member of the Totem Warriors and currently helping the player’s nomad friends. After introductions, Dragon will get down to business.
Apparently, about two weeks ago, a group from the pack had disappeared from the camp. For these four, leaving unanounced was not uncommon, but the length of time they’ve been gone is. The leader of the pack wants to hire the PC to help Dragon find their missing companions. They do not have much money, but they are willing to pay 200eb per day and help with any minor medical problems.
If the PCs agree (Any nomads from that pack will automatically agree to help), Dragon will take them to the nomad camp immediatly. Continue reading “The four Horsemen – A Cyberpunk 2020 Adventure”

Playback Time.

Author: Mexal <mcrobertson@cix.compulink.co.uk>
The players are approached by a man who says that he runs a small pharmaceutical business, but his chief chemist has absconded and is selling the company’s drugs on a freelance basis. Could they please find and return him, plus any formulae and drugs in his possession. The man is an Amerind, dressed in a respectable business suit, and gives the name Rising Moon.Assuming the players accept the job – Rising Moon is offering 1000 euro plus expenses per head, with a bonus (unspecified) for success – he tells them that the rogue chemist is known as ‘Retort’ although his real name is Rick Hammond. He is mid-30s, with spiky blond hair. The main drug he has stolen is normally marketed as a psychiatric drug which gives the patient a feeling of relaxation and cessation of their worries; it is also sometimes used in post-operative recovery when the patient is anxious about his condition. It is called Relaxon. However, Moon believes Retort is selling it as a ‘recreational drug’ and is calling it ‘Foretaste’. Continue reading “Playback Time. – A Cyberpunk 2020 Adventure”

A Matter of Trust – A Cyberpunk 2020 Adventure

A Matter of Trust

Author: Mexal <mcrobertson@cix.compulink.co.uk>
The players are ostensibly hired to make a series of ‘hits’ in a Mafiosi dispute – or so their fixer tells them. Apparently, the leading ‘Godfather’ in [whatever city the game is set in] – one Guiseppe “Pistachio Nut” Castiglione, is having trouble with some of the young bloods in his Family and thinks that eliminating a few will keep the rest in line. Unsure of the loyalty of all his soldiers, he’s turned to outside help – he thinks it will ensure no lingering resentments within Family ranks. Well, that’s the story, and the money is good.
In actuality, the players are being sucked into an internal corporate struggle. The corporation in question, Alfatek, has many divisions world-wide, and is controlled by three people – Salvatore Scarlatti, Greg Gibson and Anthony Gillham. The corporate HQ is in Rome, Italy, where Scarlatti – the oldest of the three – lives; but the major commercial and R&D facility is based in [the city the game is run in]. This ‘flagship’ operation is Alfatek Small Arms, run by Gibson; and this is both the best known and probably the most profitable part of the entire corporation.

Not the Anti-Christ….Honest! – A Cyberpunk 2020 Adventure

Not the Anti-Christ….Honest!

Author: Mexal <mcrobertson@cix.compulink.co.uk>

One of the players suddenly finds himself under attack – a group of religious fanatics have decided that he is the Anti-Christ and so want to get rid of him. Fanatic group – Servants of the Twilight, one of these apocalyptic bunches. Very determined, but given to getting carried away – i.e. adequate plans tend to go awry in the execution. Hard core of dedicated types and a substantial number of woolly adherents.

The identification of the player as the Anti-Christ is based on a 17th century manuscript about the Last Times which is illustrated with a picture that looks very much like the player in question.

The first event will be a chance meeting in the street with a cultist who has a photographic memory. This individual stops, stares momentarily in horror and then legs it. It will be very obvious who has upset her. If she’s chased and caught, she will be incoherent with terror, babbling “It’s him”. If just followed, she goes straight to the cult’s compound.

Adventure Ideas for Cyberpunk 2020

Adventure Ideas

Author: various

Short ideas: Over time I’ve collected various little adventuring ideas and hooks, but I’ve lost their authors’ names and addresses. All this stuff is copied without permission. Those with an asterisk are my own.

  1. City tour: good for a new city. the chars are given a guided tour of the city, hitting all the low spots of course. Whoever is sponsoring the tour can lead to branch-off adventures, and may even set situations up to test the characters during the tour.
  2. Gang cleanup: Orders are out to completely take out a boostergang, but semi-discretely (i.e. either legally or non-tracable). Of course the gang is funded by a corperation, either a rival corp wants/needs them iced or the funding corp has decided to terminate business. Continue reading “Adventure Ideas for Cyberpunk 2020”

2. No profit is made from redistribution or modification.

This is not meant to be a fully fleshed-out adventure. There are many gaping holes, that you, the GM, are gonna have to fill. My intention was to create a framework which was sufficiently fleshed out to be useful, but flexible enough to be adapted to your campaign.

If you find this adventure useful, please let me know. It would really make me psyched. Also, if you have additions, corrections, side-plots, other characters, etc., that you use in running “Jericho Jones”, or that you think would fit nicely in the story, please send ’em this way. I’ll incorporate them and publish them in the second edition.

Thanks, and enjoy. Continue reading “Jericho Jones – A Cyberpunk 2020 Adventure”

Background

We have a big deal running, several billion Euros big – mayor redo of the telecommunication networks in Malaysia. Contenders are Digitel (USA), SMS (Germany/the country your players are from) and Arnot (France). SMS made the best offer to the Malaysians, we are only days till the contract will be signed. What is unknown to most, SMS made the deal because they knew exactly what the other companies were offering at a given time. To reach that goal, the SMS espionage office used freelance netrunners. The netrunner who penetrated the datafortress of Digitel is called Ikarus. In the past he hacked the passwords of their datafortess and sold them to Ariadne. Ariadne is a spy, controlled by Holzmacher, who directs SMS espionage agency. Continue reading “Ikarus – A Cyberpunk 2020 Adventure”

Datahaven – A Cyberpunk 2020 Adventure

Datahaven

by Christian Conkle

Referee’s Introduction:

Edgar Jaymes, see Euro-Trash, is the Vice President of Research and Development of Night City EBM, but he wants more. He has his eyes set on being the head-honcho of his division. Unfortunately, Freidrich Schumann, the current Divisional Vice President, shows no sign of quitting in the near future. And even if he did, chances are Schumann would not appoint Jaymes his successor. Therefore Jaymes has taken matters into his own hands. He didn’t get to where he is by waiting for a promotion and he’s not going to stop now. Continue reading “Datahaven – A Cyberpunk 2020 Adventure”
