CHARACTER INFO
• Character Name: Johnny Silverhand
• Character Age: 34
• Character Canon: Cyberpunk 2077
• Canon Point: Don't Fear the Reaper
• Character History: Here
• Character Personality:
— Charming: Johnny is an incredibly charming man. Because of his no-holds-barred demeanor, he gets along well with others and is enjoyable to talk to. As the front man of Samurai, Night City's most iconic rock band, he possesses an irresistible attraction that draws people in. It doesn't hurt that Johnny is rather attractive in his own way. He understands how to take advantage of other people's fascination with him. Despite his pent-up anger and frustration with the world at large, Johnny remains a rather captivating fellow. Johnny is so charming sometimes that he can make others almost forget how much of an asshole he is. This demonstrates how easily he can sweet talk the player if given the opportunity. He's a humorous guy, and as V grows closer to Johnny, his sense of humor becomes more apparent. The rocker boy is quite playful at times, even brotherly. Johnny can be pretty adorable when the mood strikes him, giving hilarious narrations of V's experiences in-game or hinting at satire whenever things go wrong. Johnny is just a funny guy that is addictive and entertaining to be around. By the time Johnny needs to leave, you truly miss him, despite his rough and tumble nature.
— Introspective: While Johnny is mostly a selfish and impetuous asshole, there are moments in Cyberpunk 2077 when he understands what a monster he is. For many of the quests that remain following the Chippin In gig, Johnny now understands the significance of his actions and how they effect people in his life. He becomes more introspective about his past and goes out of his way to make amends with people he left behind. This is also seen in the Phantom Liberty story, shortly after V is appointed as an honorary secret agent by President Myers. He speaks openly with V about the shortcomings of the government, frequently telling him not to become another pawn in their game. Johnny seemed to understand all too well the consequences of unquestioning loyalty and the hell that could come from it. He also shows remorse for ever joining the military in the first place, especially since it cost the life of Milt's son (his old ripperdoc's kid). Despite his unnecessary attitude, Johnny is extremely concerned about the world's woes and how late-stage capitalism has damaged everything for humanity as a whole. His animosity for Arasaka stemmed not just from a dislike for the megacorporation, but also from the fact that they represent everything that is wrong with the world.
— Dedicated: Johnny consistently follows through on what he sets out to do. He is dedicated to a fault, whether it is to a person, his principles, or the band itself, and he will accomplish his goals. While the journey might be a little messy in the long run, Johnny is always dedicated to himself and his ideals. We see this multiple times during the game, as Johnny holds firm in his convictions despite the pressure. He is not the type of person to suddenly abandon his convictions for the sake of a paycheck. Johnny goes out of his way to chastise Kerry for selling out by becoming a tool for the record labels, and if you start out as a corpo in your V origins, he will punish you if you make any decisions that contradict his ideals. Johnny is the kind of guy who see things through. Even after dying and coming back as an engram, Johnny still strives to see his goals through. His dedication lines right up with his brutal honesty.
— Irrational: Sometimes dealing with Johnny is a bit of a struggle. A full-fledged conflict, if you will, particularly when he has made up his mind about something. He can be pleasant and thoughtful one moment and absolutely insane the next, hellfire flashing in his eyes. Johnny occasionally becomes outright hostile, almost to the verge of lunacy. His irrational nature makes him extremely unpredictable, almost as if you were walking through a minefield. Johnny can go from 0 to 100 in the blink of an eye. This is most likely because he is a cyberpsycho. His irrational behavior is pretty much why Johnny's relationship with Kerry (his former bandmate) was so strained. When Johnny decided to leave SAMURAI, this decision came out of the blue without any of his bandmates knowing. This crushed Kerry's spirits. Johnny and him had an off-and-on relationship throughout their time in the band, and Johnny's sudden decision to leave them ruined everything. While Kerry was eventually able to move on from the band as a solo act, he always lived in both the shadow of SAMURAI and Johnny Silverhand. Johnny's irrational decision to leave everything behind sparked so much drama, so much of which he needed to set right decades later.
— Impulsive: Johnny's impulsive tendency has resulted in the literal deaths of several of his closest friends, including his own demise. He is not the type of man who seeks permission; he prefers to storm into a meeting without an invitation and expect to be treated like a king. In all honesty, he can be rather bratty at times, nearly to the point of ridiculousness. Johnny just blithely does whatever he wants until someone yells at him or gets in his face. While he frequently allows his impulsive desires to get the best of him, Johnny understands when to stop. Johnny's impulsiveness shows up several times in the game, such as him weaseling his way into Rogue's meeting with the nomad/merc Santiago, or his reckless decision in the "Never Fade Away" questline to save Alt (his former girlfriend) from Arasaka. His impulsiveness comes with consequences and they usually hurt those he loves. Hell, you could even use Johnny's sudden departure from the band as a show of his impulsiveness. Johnny sometimes doesn't think about anyone else other than himself. He's horribly selfish like that.
— Manipulative: Despite his charming personality, Johnny can be a really manipulative bastard at times. Johnny goes out of his way to get what he wants, even if it means manipulating others. It's a passive skill of his that Johnny isn't always aware he's doing. He knows how to get under people's skin. He's like a snake; once he hooks his teeth into you, it's over. While being deceptive is not always viewed negatively, Johnny understands how to wield his influence as a weapon. It comes with the territory, especially given his status as a well-known rocker boy. The scope of Johnny's manipulation begins the moment V, the player character, meets him. For the most of the game, Johnny is simply toying with V in the hopes of receiving a second chance at life. He advises V to start smoking, drink excessively, and be as reckless as possible in order to reclaim their body. Johnny's manipulation is subtle but consistent. This is even evident in situations in which Johnny attempts to influence Rogue, an old friend turned information broker. He understands that her weakness is him, and because she has always had a thing on Johnny, he knew she would do whatever V requested as long as V said Johnny sent him.
• Character Skills:
• Trained Musician/Singer
• Firearms Handling
• High Stamina
• High Combat Efficiency
• Hotwiring a car
• Character Inventory:
— ITEM ONE: The Malorian 3516 is a power pistol made by the manufacturer named Malorian Arms. It was originally a prototype that was gifted to Johnny Silverhand by the owner of the company. However, the gun now is nothing more than a glorified Glock at best. Those armor-piercing bullets that make bad guys "explode" into meat chunks no longer pack that kind of heat.
— ITEM TWO: The DeLuze Orphean is the name of Silverhand's prized guitar. It's an all-black electric guitar with silver embellishments in the form of little cartoon-stylized bombs along the neck of the guitar and various stickers plastered across the case. The guitar is loosely based off the Jackson Dinky series with several modifiers for aesthetics, such as the "Fuck Tyrants" quote etched into the wood paneling. Unfortunately, this electric guitar doesn't work right without electricity.
— ITEM THREE: Johnny's military dog tags are more of a sentimental item than practical. They list his true name, "Robert John Linder," along with his date of birth, blood type, and other personal information.
• Important Notes: Johnny acquired his nickname from his silver left arm. He does, in fact, require his prosthetic since he can't function normally without it. He lost his left arm while in the military, and it's an important element of his persona, especially since he uses the "Hand" to excuse his violent streak. However, his prosthetic is going to be rather barebones at best. That means he won't be able to punch through walls or pick up people by the throat with it. He'll be essentially just a one-armed dude with an average prosthetic.
