Stats

Body - 4

Cool - 4

Intellegence - 6

Reflex - 4

Technical - 7

Ego - -3

Okay, there is a lot to unpack here. What the fuck is Ego and why is it in the negatives. Focusing on it she received a form of telepathic communication. Not so much as an explanation, more like she knew already, but only by focusing on it did she remember it.

Well that explains it. Something went wrong when I reincarnated and my memories and the system were sealed until now and when I began to remember the system reinitialized and my personality from then and memories were mixed together in such a way that I’m doubting myself and reality. At least it seems recoverable but its locking me out of a lot of functions until it reaches a value of 1 and I’m going to have psychological issues until it does.

Reviewing the rest of his stats it seemed not everything was bad news.

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

My initial stats aren’t bad, I’m 2 points higher than you start with in 2077, but I don’t get to manually allocate the points. I guess it makes sense, I don’t get a character creation screen and I probably won’t get to respec later on. Its probably a pretty accurate representation of me. Wonder what these life paths are and what they do.

Looking at the first listed as ??? he got a further description.

???- A surprise you must discover for the effects to be revealed

Well that's not ominous at all. Sarcasm permeated her thoughts.

Also tells me nothing. With a mental shrug she moved on to the rest easily completing the same mental exercise to get details of their nature and effects.

Corpo born (Former)- you were born corpo and received the best of the best when your genes were spliced, modded and perfected and your development was closely controlled with regular biosculpting visits while still in utero. While no further enhancements were made you have become the best of what your human parentage could achieve (Increases total natural stat potential to 11 where 10 is the normal natural limit of what humans can achieve)

That is a major bonus, and also explains a lot about how executives maintained their intergenerational power.

Gifted -You are naturally better in all stats from the start but suffer an initial penalty to skills (Negative traits negated by CoSELE)

CoSELE(grade 5)- you received 5 years of Corpo science exec level education from the age of 3. This is not corpo school education. This is what corpo education wishes it was. Corpo science exec level education(CoSELE) is a combination of nero-enhancers, special supplements, hypno learning, braindances and focused tutoring as well as regular corpo school for socialization. The CoSELE is designed to develop top scientists, team leads for important research and science executive positions. Thankfully you were forced to leave before loyalty indoctrination began. (Enhances development of all Intelect, Cool and Tech skill development)

Fuck that almost makes that torture my parents put us through worth it. Also shit! No wonder Haru is so loyal and joined a gang so quick with unfinished indoctrinations floating around in his head he was begging to belong anywhere.

Streetkid- when your parents died you and your brother fled to prevent entering the corperate orphanages. Your brother joined the Claws for protection and you were raised on the streets of Japantown. (Increases streetwise skill growth, moderate boost to body and cool growth rate)

Netrunner- While your no longer a scion of a corpo you retained the education you did get. Recognized from a young age as smart and easy to teach you apprenticed with Yoko for several years. (bonus growth to Tech and Intelligence)

Gearhead- Trained by a now deceased small nomad clan in all thing with a motor. You were halfway into the process of joining the clan when they met their unfortunate end. (Increased growth in technical growth and all related skills.)

That’s a lot to take in, seeing my life reduced to what amounts to a page is frustrating in the extreme, but at least I know what it all does, I know what my stats are and what skills and stats will grow the easiest. This does not define me. I can still be anything I want.

J began to calm down. She knew she wasn’t limited by the interface, as it had never affected her in a noticeable way until now she didn’t expect it to limit her now. This wasn’t a video game and she wasn’t V destined to die one way or the other.

What was it Dexter asked V? Would you rather live in peace as Miss Noboby, die a ripe, old, and smellin’ slightly of urine? Or go down for all times in a blaze of glory, smellin’ near of posies, ‘thout seeing your thirties? J took a deep breath considering it.

I don’t know Dexter. That's a hard one, (Her mind raced as she imagined a conversation with a fat black man with good weed in a nice car with a driver.) but I ain’t going to follow the script. I’m not limited to story mode. So the first step in my master plan starts now.

Ego experience gained +100 remaining experience till next level 200

Well that's a nice boost, I wonder what caused it. J wondered for a moment before shrugging. She’d figure it out eventually but for now she had goals she wanted to achieve and things she wanted to confirm

J got her phone to contact T-bug. First step to greatness in her mind.

“Hey T, I need your help to steal a corpse.”

T-bug's reaction was priceless.
