Note from the Author:
Hi there! :DDD This is a quick note for anyone curious about the nature of this project.
What you're reading is a story set in the Cyberpunk 2020 universe (the board game that inspired 2077 and Edgerunners)! This story is inspired and based on a custom campaign I played. Although it ended, it was so fun that it inspired me to bring it to completion by writing it out and sharing it online!
One thing to note: you don't need any prior knowledge of the universe or franchise to enjoy this story!
Though it technically qualifies as fanfiction, I see it more as a web novel. The reason is because many established characters and much of the original Cyberpunk lore have been significantly altered or removed. You'll also find a mix of original characters and new factions alongside familiar ones. Think of Cyberpunk 2021 as an alternate timeline from the source material or perhaps even just a whole new universe altogether.
For Cyberpunk fans, you'll recognize many names but you might be surprised with the directions I take them in. If you're new to the world, you'll still get the full experience, I promise! :)))
I'll do my best to stay consistent with chapter uploads. My goal right now is to release new chapters every week, but if that's not possible, I'll aim for biweekly updates! I'm still fairly new to writing and this process as a whole, so bear with me hahaha. I hope you enjoy the journey!
By the way, special thanks to:
