Line 35:

===Lifepaths===

The player then selects V's [[Lifepath]] background, by choosing [[Nomad (Lifepath)|Nomad]], [[Streetkid (Lifepath)|Streetkid]], or [[Corpo (Lifepath)|~~Corporate~~]]. Each Lifepath will begin in a different starting location around [[Night City]], and V will be in a different place in life overall.

The player then selects V's [[Lifepath]] background, by choosing [[Nomad (Lifepath)|Nomad]], [[Streetkid (Lifepath)|Streetkid]], or [[Corpo (Lifepath)|Corpo]]. Each Lifepath will begin in a different starting location around [[Night City]], and V will be in a different place in life overall.

The player will have a different introductory questline ([[The Nomad]], [[The Streetkid]], or [[The Corpo-Rat]]) and equipment, which will be connected to V's specific origin story and will be introduced to the character differently. Lifepaths will stretch the entirety of the game, and not only will it open up different dialogue options, but you will also unlock a specific side quest based off your Lifepath.

Line 45:

Depending on the chosen [[Lifepath]], V will have one out of three backgrounds which all lead to the same narrative path.

{{Condition|~~text=~~If V has the [[Nomad (Lifepath)|Nomad]] Lifepath}}

:V grew up in the American wilderness, having been part of the [[Bakkers]] [[nomad]] family.<ref name="FTR">[[Following the River]]</ref> At the age of 16, they made their first kill when [[Raffen Shiv]] scouts assaulted their camp, with V killing one of them with a single shot to the eye.<ref name="YKMN">[[You Know My Name]], phone message with Alex (lifepath dependent)</ref>

:They left the family after it merged with [[Snake Nation]], leading them to search for a new life. Not long after, V made contact with [[Jackie Welles]], who needed a nomad in order to smuggle [[Arasaka]] contraband across the Californian border to [[Night City]].

Line 51:

:V finally made contact with Jackie, and once they loaded the cargo on the Rattler, they went directly to the [[Border Crossing]]. They manage to cross without a hitch, but discovered it was all a trap. An Arasaka convoy was waiting for them on the other side of the border, forcing V and Jackie to flee at top speed with the Rattler through the [[Biotechnica Flats]]. After losing their tail and taking refuge in an abandoned garage, V and Jackie discovered that they were smuggling a living iguana. Though originally he planned on ditching them without their money, Jackie offered to help V set up in Night City and split their profit by selling the iguana to another party, which they accepted, leading to their friendship.<ref name="Nomad">[[The Nomad]]</ref>

{{Condition|~~text=~~If V has the [[Streetkid (Lifepath)|Streetkid]] lifepath}}

:V was raised by the streets of [[Heywood (2077)|Heywood]], [[Night City]].<ref name="FTR" /> At the age of 13, a junkie tried to knife one of their chooms. V reacted and stabbed him first, becoming their first kill. V knew him from before, as the junkie had always been begging on the streets, and was fond of him.<ref name="YKMN" />

:Though V initially left for [[Atlanta]] two years ago, they returned to Night City after realizing it was not going to work out.

Line 57:

:As they managed to enter and start the car, V was stopped by [[Jackie Welles]], who was also attempting to steal the vehicle. However, they were quickly surrounded by the [[Night City Police Department|NCPD]], led by officer [[Henry Stints]], and were arrested. Though ordered to be executed by the vehicle's owner - [[Kaoru Fujioka]] - they were instead knocked out and left bloodied in an alleyway of [[Heywood (2077)|Heywood]]. After the ordeal, V and Jackie were properly introduced, the latter revealing that Kirk's threats were actually empty. When he invited them for a meal, V hesitantly accepted, leading to their friendship.<ref>[[The Streetkid]]</ref>

:Over a two-year period of active duty, V completed six defensive and five offensive operations. Their last assignment was a full reconnaissance of an Arasaka facility in [[Watson (2077)|Watson]], which led to tracking and intercepting a spy from [[Baskin Undercover]], who was suspected to have been working under [[Militech]] orders. With that mission, V proved they were an effective autonomous operative; clever and ambitious, they were always committed to completing the assignments and never showed disloyalty to Arasaka. However, they showed high levels of stress.

:During the [[Frankfurt]] leak, Jenkins was tasked with dealing with the situation after assassinating a number of [[European Space Council|ESC]] representatives without the official approval of his superior, [[Susan Abernathy]]. V was tasked by Jenkins to ~~assassinate~~ Abernathy, who he claimed had stolen his position. V called their street contact and old friend [[Jackie Welles]] to meet at [[Lizzie's Bar]]. While there V discussed the details of the job, however Jackie was unwilling to do it, and did not want V to go through with it either. During the conversation, the two were ~~cornered~~ by Arasaka agents under Abernathy's command, they stripped V of their corporate status and took the information regarding Jenkins.

Line 84:

Given some time to be alone, V and Johnny contemplated what [[Endings|options]] they had. Finally, V made their last call and decided what they were going to do.

:V went with Arasaka, eventually succeeding in their quest of ousting Yorinobu and removing V's biochip. While unconscious, V met with Johnny who told they had made a terrible choice and by extracting the chip V would lose a part of themselves. After spending some weeks of recovery time on a clinic in the [[Arasaka Orbital Station]] in space, either Hellman or Takemura brought news that the operation hadn't work out in the end and that V only has six months left to live. Takemura was more specific mentioning that V won't live to see the winter. Nevertheless, a proposition was made for V. The difficult choice of accepting or refusing an offer from Arasaka.

::{{Condition|~~text=~~If V accepted the contract}} V decided to become an [[engram]]. Their psyche will be locked in Mikoshi until a suitable body is found for them.

{{Condition|If V followed Johnny's advice or if V chose to assault the tower all alone}}

:After giving control over their body, Johnny made a strike team with [[Rogue Amendiares]] and [[Crispin Weyland]], crashing into [[Arasaka Tower]] with an AV, and reaching [[Mikoshi]] after fighting their way down. Otherwise, V entered Arasaka Tower by the front door and fought their way down to Mikoshi all by themselves.

:{{Condition|~~text=~~If V is defeated in combat}}

:{{Condition|If V is defeated in combat}}

:V dies if they are defeated in combat during the assault on Arasaka Tower in [[(Don't Fear) The Reaper]], where it will play out the same as the "Suicide" ending.

:Once in [[the Net]], V and Johnny met with [[Alt Cunningham]], who told them that even though they had been finally separated, the biochip had changed too much of V's brain, and if they returned they would die after six months. Instead she advised Johnny to go back as the body wouldn't reject his psyche.

::{{Condition|~~text=~~If Johnny stays with V's body}} V followed Alt beyond the [[Blackwall]]. A few months after those events, Johnny chose to leave Night City, feeling grateful to live again but sad for how things turned out in regards to V's fate.

At some point during the next two months, a mysterious person known as [[Mr. Blue Eyes]] hired V to arrange a heist on the [[Crystal Palace]]. The day V left to space, Mr. B promised them that if they are successful in their mission, they will gain more than they can even imagine.

:V spent the night with the [[Aldecaldos]] after being inducted into the clan. The next morning the nomad convoy assaulted the [[Maglev Tunnel Construction Site]] in order to access the tunnel. Using a TBM, the group reached the lower levels of [[Arasaka Tower]], eventually finding Mikoshi.

::{{Condition|~~text=~~If V returns to their body}} Johnny followed Alt beyond the Blackwall. At least a month after the assault, most of the Aldecaldos had crossed the border into SoCal with heaps of Arasaka tech. V and the few Aldecaldos who hadn't left yet were ready to leave Night City too. Panam and Mitch told V they have contacts in [[Arizona]] who might be able to help with their condition. V joined the Aldecaldos in their journey to the city of [[Tucson]].

[[Solomon Reed|Reed]] will arrange for an AV to take V to Langley. During the Journey, V and Johnny will have a final conversation before the former is injected anesthesia, causing them to fall unconscious. V will wake up in hospital being greeted by Reed. Reed explains that V has been in a coma for two years, and while the surgery was a success, the damage done to V's nervous system means that their body can no longer handle most forms of cyberware. V demands to go back to Night City. V has the option to call some of their friends first but discovers most of them have moved on with their lives, some even leaving Night City all together. After V calls the nurse, they return to Night City. V will take a Delemain cab to [[Misty's Esoterica|Misty's ~~Estoerica~~]], which is now a [[Zetatech]] Network Clinic. After Viktor confirms V's diagnosis, another client of his walks in and V leaves. While walking back to Delemains cab, V is accosted by a pair of thugs. Without their combat implants, V is unable to fight back and severely beaten. They are found by [[Misty Olszewski|Misty]]. After a short conversation about V's future, Misty informs them that she's leaving Night City for good, but that V should come visit her should they ever find themselves in Poland. After walking Misty to her ride, V looks up and gives a slight smile and, accepting they must now live as a normal civilian, disappears into a crowd.

:V decided to toss the pills off the roof, much to Johnny's confusion. V then explained that it will be the cleanest and least bloody way as if they do anything else, people will die. Johnny told V that people die, and it is the way of things, which V asked if they are worth their sacrifice, which Johnny remained quiet. V also stated that at least they will be aware of death. He then sat near V, asking if they are sure, which V answered that as long as Johnny does not have anything against it. Johnny agreed to this and after looking over Night City one last time and say their goodbyes, the camera pans away from Night City as a gunshot rings out, signaling that V has committed suicide.

The character of V was unveiled at the E3 2018 show, where [[CD Projekt RED]] revealed the game for the first time since 2013. Players were going to find themselves in the role of V, an up and coming cyberpunk in Night City. Rather than having a pre-defined character, similar to [[w:c:witcher:Geralt of Rivia|Geralt of Rivia]] from the [[w:c:witcher|''Witcher'' franchise]], CDPR elected to allow players to define their own character.

Line 289:

*During the Prologue, Act 1 and the first quests of Act 2, Jackie writes the quest descriptions in V's journal. Early in Act 2 Johnny takes his place. They often use second-person language for side quests and switch to first when they are directly involved. This is similar to the ''[[w:c:witcher:Witcher Wiki|Witcher series]]'' of games, also developed by [[CD Projekt RED]], where the bard [[w:c:witcher:Dandelion|Dandelion]] writes all the journal entries for quests using second person language and switching to first when the quest involves him.

*According to Jackie, V has a tendency to be forgetful.<ref>[[The Ripperdoc]]</ref>

*V prefers text messages over calls.<ref name="LMR">[[Lucretia My Reflection]] ~~(Conversation at Capitan Caliente)~~</ref>

*V prefers text messages over calls.<ref name="LMR">[[Lucretia My Reflection]]</ref>

*V does not seem to be familiar with some outdated technology. For example, while trying to call [[Solomon Reed]] on an older payphone, Johnny Silverhand had to demonstrate how to hold the receiver for them.<ref name="LMR" />

*V does not seem to be familiar with some outdated technology. For example, while trying to call [[Solomon Reed]] on an older payphone, Johnny Silverhand had to demonstrate how to hold the receiver for them.<ref name="LMR"/>

*Despite V claiming that only people close to them can use their ~~full~~ name, no one, including friends and potential romantic partners, will ever ~~use it~~.

*Despite V claiming that only people close to them can use their first name, no one, including friends and potential romantic partners, will ever call them by their first name. Only during [[Automatic Love]] will [[Skye]] or [[Angel (2077)|Angel]] call V by their first name.

**In ''[[~~Phantom Liberty~~]]'', ~~Johnny Silverhand might mention~~ V's ~~full~~ name ~~during~~ [[Who Wants To Live Forever]].

**In {{CP|PL}}, when V first meets with [[Solomon Reed]] during [[Lucretia My Reflection]], V's first name appears in the FIA profile displayed in the vehicle. During [[Who Wants to Live Forever]], Johnny Silverhand will call V by their first name.

==Trivia==

*According to [[Mike Pondsmith]], his son Cody and him were really amused that the voice for female V sounded similar to his daughter, stating there was more than a passing physical resemblance between V and her.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/cyberpunkgame/comments/9bfh9e/female_v_is_an_adorable_murderpuppy/e52zlv6/?~~context=3~~ Mike Pondsmith on Reddit 1]</ref><ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/cyberpunkgame/comments/efypm5/they_must_really_like_female_vs_design/fc3gcqh/?~~context=3~~ Mike Pondsmith on Reddit 2]</ref>

 The character of V was unveiled at the E3 2018 show, where [[CD Projekt RED]] revealed the game for the first time since 2013. Players were going to find themselves in the role of V, an up and coming cyberpunk in Night City. Rather than having a pre-defined character, similar to [[w:c:witcher:Geralt of Rivia|Geralt of Rivia]] from the [[w:c:witcher|''Witcher'' franchise]], CDPR elected to allow players to define their own character.
