📋 About This Mod

That corpo sipping coffee on her way to work — NC482917, credit score 780, Platinum Trauma Team, two outstanding lawsuits she doesn't want you to know about. The nervous guy at the bus stop — NCPD warrant watch, O RhD+, neural degradation from a botched implant. The Tyger Claw watching you from across the street — "Kitsune" Kenji Tanaka, fourth-generation recruit, three kills on record, loyalty score through the roof. That cop harassing street vendors — 11 years on the force, two suspensions, partner killed during a Maelstrom raid, anger management flag in his personnel file.

Now you can find out.

Deep Scan Protocol hooks your Kiroshi optics into every major database in Night City. NCPD criminal records. Cyberware registries. Bank and tax records. Trauma Team medical files. Psychological evaluations. Personal relationship networks. Vehicle registrations. NET activity logs. Night City citizen IDs. Everything the system knows about a person, pulled in real time through your optics.

Every NPC is a person. Your Kiroshi reads them all.

230 hand-written unique NPC entries | 2,012 procedural life events | 90 special classifications | 560K+ possible name combinations across 13 ethnicities | 320 gang aliases | 300 NET aliases | 72 BOLO notices | 200 personal quirks

230 named characters have hand-written, lore-accurate backstories that replace procedural generation. Quest-aware entries update dynamically — scan Takemura before and after The Heist and get different intel. Scan Jackie in the prologue versus Act 2. The data knows what you know.
