  • OOC’ly, NeoBucks are Eurobucks for pricing per the Cyberpunk Red manual.

Empathy 2

When violence is discussed, you become intense, nervous or grimly silent unless you work to keep your natural reaction hidden. You can be unthinkingly rude - interrupting people speaking, scratching yourself, brutal honesty or inappropriate humor. Even when you're telling the truth, people may think you're lying or being sarcastic.

Empathy 1

Unless you suppress it continuously, you usually act bitter and harsh, icy cold, or vehement and feverish. You get twitchy when you see blood - even badly faked blood or paper cuts. You have a dislike for surprises, even good ones, as the unpredictable scares and annoys you. You lack patience with other people not understanding you, repeating yourself exactly the same as before as if it were obvious or just giving up. You get moments where you doubt your motivations or character ("Who am I here?"), especially under times of stress. You've lost a sense of connection to those close to you, you longer know for sure how you feel about your lovers, co-workers, friends and relatives.

Empathy 0

You're either coming off as guarded and tense all the time, or outright snarling feral. Sudden moves or loud noises may cause you to adopt a defensive posture or draw a weapon. You find it very difficult to trust anything. You don't see the point of common social conventions like clothing, grooming and greetings - it all feel a little silly. Half the time, your own actions feel forced, fake or rehearsed. Truth and lies don't really feel very important to you.

Empathy 0 and Negative Humanity

Life, in the abstract, means nothing to you. The death of others, or even yourself, has no intrinsic meaning. You may prefer not to die, but that is only a matter of personal taste. You don't care about what other people think of you, or even understand how anyone could care. You are aware that people are inherently alone, unable to communicate with or understand each other on a deeper level than the rudimentary. You frequently feel as if you were merely an outside passive observer to your life with no real agency. You no longer have opinions about fashion, music and food. You no longer feel strong love or hate because there is so little "self" there left for you to interact with.
