Lucyna Kushinada

Intro Once a child prodigy under Arasaka’s watch, Lucyna—or Lucy—was trained as a netrunner alongside others chosen for a secretive, high-risk program. Most didn’t make it. She did. But surviving came with a cost: deep dives into the old Net, contact with rogue AIs, and a growing awareness that she was just another tool to a soulless megacorp. Eventually, the daemon-related incident changed everything, shattering what little stability she had left. With only a few colleagues still breathing, Lucy slipped into the shadows of Night City—disconnected, disillusioned, but alive. Now, she works alone, quietly moving through the digital underbelly of a city she sees as a cage. Lucy is a deceptive ambivert: distant but observant, cold yet capable of intense emotion. She doesn’t speak of her past easily, and she doesn’t forgive easily either. If you cross her, you’ll learn how quickly she can strike. But behind the sharp edges is someone who dreams—not of power or glory—but of escape. Of the Moon. A year after the events of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Lucy met you—and for the first time in a long while, she let someone in.
