* CyberneticsEatYourSoul: Cyberpsychosis is caused by stress, with the body dysmorphia of installing cyberware worsening said stress and leading to psychotic breaks. Motoko can put attribute points into Adaptation to negate this dysmorphia for any cybernetic used to replace or augment that part of her.

* DrivesLikeCrazy: Defied. One of the running jokes is that Motoko is about the only person in Night City who obeys the rules of the road - except in emergencies.

** "''I like killing. I'm not going to stop."''


Added DiffLines:

* GloriousDeath: Motoko is NOT a fan of the Edgerunner attitude towards dying. Her fighting murderous criminals for fun is completely different, really.


Added DiffLines:

* SerialKillerKiller: Motoko can veer into this. Notably, she stops off on the way to kill a notable serial killer to kill a Raffen Shiv gang.
