Characters / Cyberpunk: Edgerunners – The Crew

Main Character Index | Main Characters | The Crew | Corpos, Criminals, and Fixers | Other Characters

In the City of Dreams, no one's gonna give you a break: Not the Corpo-rats, not the Gangoons, not the Badges, and definitely not MAX-TAC. You might fancy yourself an expert solo or an antisocial rockerboy, but even the infamous Johnny Silverhand had a crew when he blasted himself into history from the top of Arasaka Tower, and if you want to carry out the kind of gig that puts you in the big leagues and has every Fixer from Jig-Jig Street to Pacifica clamoring to have your number, you're gonna need some chooms, and ones you can trust to face down Hell with—because in Night City, "Hell" lives right around the corner, and has probably passed out in front of your doorway a couple times.

The following lists the members of the crew David joins in Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.

Maine

Maine

"Everybody gets a fair shake. Only way I operate."

Voiced by: Hiroki Tochi (Japanese), William C Stephens (English), Humberto Solórzano (Latin American Spanish)

A Militech veteran who's the leader of the mercenary crew David runs with.

---

• Amazon Chaser: He's very attracted to his partner Dorio, who is an androgynous woman with muscles almost as big as his and an extremely competent edgerunner, so much so that she acts as his Number Two.
• Appearance Angst: His last clear thought before his death is him seeing himself as a scrawny, unaugmented human with a very devastated look on his face.
• Arm Cannon: He has a Projectile Launch System from the game, and while it's certainly effective, his overloaded cyberware makes it glitch at inopportune times like during the attack by the cyberpsycho hobo that killed Pilar.
• Ax-Crazy: At first he reads into short episodes violence while succumbing to cyberpsychosis, attacking even his crew a few times. Once Dorio dies, he leans full into this trope and turns the building into a slaughterhouse with the police and Trauma Team as the meat. He thankfully snaps out of it in his last meeting with David and just moments before his death.
• Battle Couple: He and Dorio are in a relationship and fight side-by-side during gigs.
• Benevolent Boss: Maine is a hard, but fair boss to his team, as David is quick to learn as he becomes part of the gang and does more work with them; he ensures everyone gets a fair cut on the job, covers everyone's skin, owns up to his mistakes, and even tries to help David get closer to the team (which directly leads to David and Lucy becoming a pair as a result). It's clear he's beginning to slip past the point of no return due to cyberpsychosis when he stops actively doing these things and is more hostile to everyone around him, especially in punching Kiwi unconscious and actually backhanding David deliberately when he's concerned about him.
• Cool Shades: He wears sunglasses with a red tint most of the time. They shatter at the same time Dorio is shot in the head, evoking the complete shattering of his sanity.
• Cybernetics Eat Your Soul: His obsession with constantly increasing his cyberware to keep his edge, a refusal to ever "downgrade" even as his health worsens combined with heavy self-medication, leads to him developing cyberpsychosis. When he witnesses Dorio's death first-hand, the last real thing keeping him grounded, Maine completely and willingly gives in to insanity.
• Despair Event Horizon: He crosses this once he realized he inadvertently killed Dorio while suffering from cyberpsychosis. At that point, he mercilessly kills many NCPD and Trauma Team members trying to kill him before deciding to arrange a stack of explosives that would kill himself and any MaxTac agents close by.
• Dying as Yourself: He manages to pull himself back from the throes of cyberpsychosis long enough to arrange a "funeral pyre" of explosives to honor the dead Dorio, which will also kill him. He uses his final moments to encourage David to save himself before the explosion. His very last thought flashes back to a time long ago when he was completely organic with no cyberware at all.
• Fatal Flaw: Pride. Maine feels compelled to keep installing more and more implants in order to get stronger, and refuses to remove any of them to lighten the mental strain they are inflicting on him due to the perception that he would be "downgrading" himself. Even as he begins to mentally break down, becoming more violent towards the crew when he was previously a Benevolent Boss, and ultimately contributes to Dorio's death while she was trying to help him, causing the culmination of his Sanity Slippage.
• Intergenerational Friendship: Part of why he comes to like David despite being old enough to be David's Cool Uncle (Maine being somewhere in his late 30's). After some initial friction from getting conned into the crew by Lucy, the two of them actually hit it off very well, but it turns into a Tragic Bromance in the end as David can't get through to Maine when the cyberpsychosis fits begin to kick in, being the runt of the litter.
• I've Come Too Far: The reason he gives for refusing to downgrade his cyberware is because he's come too far to make himself "weaker."
• Large and in Charge: He's the tallest and most muscly of the crew. Even Dorio is noticeably smaller than him. A brief flashback right before his death shows that like David, he used to be a relatively scrawny kid and that his bulk is likely due to his lifetime of cybernetic augmentation.
• The Leader: He's the one in charge of the crew until his death, after which David takes his place.
• Living Emotional Crutch: Maine's status as David's father figure helped give the boy the emotional support and strength needed to handle cybernetics. Maine's death is a major factor to David succumbing to cyberpsychosis.
• Mentor Occupational Hazard: He starts off as David's mentor when he joins his crew, but unfortunately he soon slides further into cyberpsychosis which ultimately ends in his death.
• Muscle Angst: Implied, though it isn't outright stated by him nor others. In the flashbacks, it is shown that he was much scrawnier than now, implying that a large part of his musculature is thanks to cybernetics. Further, he looked devastated upon seeing himself in the flashback suggesting insecurity about not being bulky.
• My God, What Have I Done?: When he realizes Dorio died trying to stabilize his Cyberpsychosis, which itself was caused by Maine refusing to downgrade his cyberware, he asks himself in a horrified voice, "Is this... is this my fault?" Maine then undergoes a complete psychotic break, asking the cops and Trauma Team, "This my fault?" before going on a killing spree.
• Nightmare Face: Gives a downright horrifying one, a wide-eyed, wide-smiled look that's somehow both wildly manic and completely emotionless, to the Trauma Team battle medic who was unlucky enough to be the first to enter the scene to secure the patient while Maine is going full tilt into Cyberpsychosis. In a show with no shortage of terrifying visuals, there's a good reason why it's the page image for the Nightmare Fuel page for this show.
• Obi-Wan Moment: After Dorio ends up dying due to his cyberpsychosis and he's put the whole crew in a stickler due to his screw-up, Maine saves David from trying to pull a Heroic Sacrifice to save him, leaving behind his arms for David to take up as he grows to succeed him as leader of the gang.
• Oh, Crap!: Has a blink-and-you-miss-it "oh, shit" reaction when he hears Pilar exclaim that the random homeless guy he's harassing has "chromed" his genitals, quickly and correctly guessing that he's actually a violent cyberpsycho. It proves too little too late to stop him from killing Pilar.
• Parental Substitute: After taking the kid under his wing, Maine effectively became the closest thing David ever had for a father figure following the death of his mother Gloria. So when Maine meets his demise during the botched Tanaka gig, David takes the tragedy just as hard.
• Reasonable Authority Figure: Despite their rocky first meeting less than 24 hours prior, Maine warms up to David fairly quickly once he proves himself as an edgerunner in episode 3, giving him a fair cut of the eddies as well as a month's supply of immunosuppressants for his Sandevistan. Maine suddenly becoming a hateful Jerkass to David about how it was supposed to be his Sandevistan is the first major sign that his own immunosuppressants are starting to no longer work and that he's starting to lose himself to cyberpsychosis.
• Roaring Rampage of Revenge: After Dorio is shot dead, Maine willingly jumps into cyberpsychosis, killing every member of the NCPD and Trauma Team he can get his hands on as payback for her death, up to building a funeral pyre of explosives to take out a whole building with them and himself inside.
• Sanity Slippage: Begins succumbing to cyberpsychosis halfway through the series, becoming extremely hostile and dangerous to everyone around him as he spaces out from reality, even gaining the symbolic eye-glitch that all cyberpsychos have as he slips further. However, after Dorio dies, he checks back to reality enough to witness what has happened, and rather than involuntarily lose himself to the madness, he slips into a completely different kind of madness instead and goes on a massive killing spree entirely of his own volition til he is finally Driven to Suicide.
• Shipper on Deck: He's supportive of David and Lucy's relationship, though that doesn't stop him from heckling David after realizing Lucy took his virginity.
• Shotguns Are Just Better: His preferred weapon is a Militech Crusher. Perhaps symbolically, he's seen using a Kang Tao smart shotgun when he's in the throes of cyberpsychosis.
• Super-Strength: Enough to punch men in half.
• Taking You with Me: Maine's final act is to ignite the explosives making up Dorio's "funeral pyre" ensuring he gives her a proper sendoff while killing himself and taking as many members of MaxTac as he can with him.
• Took a Level in Jerkass: Due to his growing Cyberpsychosis, Maine goes from Benevolent Boss to Bad Boss gradually, including knocking Kiwi out cold and backhanding David just for showing concern.
• Too Many Belts: About three of the same set.
• Unwitting Instigator of Doom: His casual advice to David to get implants to improve his combat abilities as well as being a mentor figure that David looks up to, combined with his death a short time later results in David falling into his own spiral of cybernetic self-modification to the point where he too starts suffering from cyberpsychosis.

Dorio

Dorio

"What's the saying, 'Biggest fish is the one that got away'?"

Voiced by: Michiko Kaiden (Japanese), Marie Westbrook (English), Kerygma Flores (Latin American Spanish)

Maine's lover, the muscle and de-facto second-in-command of the crew.

---

• Amazonian Beauty: She's extremely muscular, only outsized by Maine, whom she's dating, and is very attracted to her looks. At one point she punches him to get him to stop groping her, only to start making out with him.
• Battle Couple: She and Maine are in a relationship and fight side-by-side during gigs.
• Boom, Headshot!: Is shot From Behind as she administers an immunosuppressant into the crazed Maine, blowing her brains all over his face as he comes to... which sends him on a very different form of crazed instead.
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Definitely rough around the edges, but she cares for Maine and the rest of the team.
• Lady Looks Like a Dude: She has a very androgynous appearance and can easily be mistaken for a male character if one isn't paying attention to her revealing clothing.
• The Lancer: Dorio is Maine's second-in-command in the crew, giving orders to others when he's incapacitated.
• Living Emotional Crutch: It's clear that Dorio serves as this to Maine since, her reaching out to him is the only thing that has anything resembling a grip on Maine as he slips further into cyberpsychosis, which gives him some recognition things are going horribly wrong for himself even if he doesn't want to admit he needs to cut back. Losing Dorio in a shootout spells Maine's own doom as he collapses completely into a Despair Event Horizon that ends with him committing an explosive suicide not too long after.
• No Shirt, Long Jacket: She wears a mid-length trench coat with only some wide pasties underneath, probably to show how muscular she is.
• Number Two: She is essentially Maine's second in command.
• Pretty Little Headshots: Unlike everyone else, her head wounds are small and leave her face mostly intact.
• Revolvers Are Just Better: She uses an Overture revolver as her primary weapon.
• Shipper on Deck: Like Maine, she's very supportive of David and Lucy getting together, leaving the two alone so they can become an Official Couple.
• Slap-Slap-Kiss: Responds to Maine's flirting by punching him hard enough to draw blood from his nose — and then kisses him passionately while happily being fondled by him.
• Token Good Teammate: She’s the only one of the crew to suggest sparing David rather than ripping the Sandevistan out of him.
• Tsundere: She's normally pretty kind when interacting with others but can be abrasive in how she shows affection to Maine. When Maine flirts with her, she punches him in the nose hard enough to draw blood, then licks it up and makes out with him. When Maine's hurt by Kurosaki's EMP, she has him taken away for his protection, smacking him around to force him to comply.
• Vasquez Always Dies: Is shot while administering an immunosuppressant to Maine, while the more traditionally feminine Lucy survives the series. This is especially notable in her case since she's visibly muscled and does the blasting during the team's gigs, while Lucy has a more slender body type and is the team's Netrunner, necessitating that she be out of the action.
• Viking Funeral: After she dies, Maine decides to honor her by erecting a "funeral pyre" envisioning fuel tanks as the wood to burn her body on and give her the send off she deserves. It'll also result in his own death and taking out as many MaxTac goons as possible.

Kiwi

Kiwi

"Never trust a soul in Night City."

Voiced by: Takako Honda (Japanese), Stephanie Wong (English), Jocelyn Robles (Latin American Spanish)

Another netrunner on Maine's crew, as well as Lucy's mentor.

---

• Alas, Poor Villain: Kiwi's death, despite being a result of her selling out the team, is still depicted sympathetically since she clearly regrets what she did. Averted in the case of her former teammates, who don't dwell on her death despite her using her last moments to help Lucy out once last time. Her epitaph in Columbarium is a Stealth Insult from Lucy.
• All for Nothing: She betrays her protégée Lucy by handing her over to Arasaka and lures her crew into a trap where they'll either be slaughtered by Militech or captured by Arasaka, all for money and Arasaka corporate protection. She clearly regrets what she's done and in the end, her reward for selling out her friends is being murdered by a traitorous Faraday's goons.
• Animal Motifs: Spiders - she's willing to manipulate others, like how spiders "weave webs of lies", and the one good view we get of her nude reveals that she has spiderweb tattoos over most of her body. Additionally, due to having No Mouth, she has to eat liquid food, just like how spiders liquify their prey. And her mask happens to have precisely eight vents.
• Apologetic Attacker: She apologizes to Falco after knocking him out and leaving him and the rest of David's crew behind to face off against Militech and Arasaka.
• Badass Longcoat: Usually seen donning a long red overcoat.
• Bizarre Human Biology: Per a Reddit AMA with Hiroyuki Imaishi, her nipples can shoot out spider silk.
• Body Horror: Under that mask, Kiwi has no mouth at all, just an empty void in her head.
• Deadpan Snarker: In keeping with her stoic demeanor, she has an incredibly dry sense of humor.
  Kiwi: [annoyed] I got some Pilar on me...
• Death Equals Redemption: Though she already regretted her actions, it's only after Faraday mortally wounds her that Kiwi calls David with Faraday's location so he and the surviving crew can save Lucy and get revenge. She dies soon after when a couple of Faraday's goons find her hiding spot and finish the job.
• Defiant to the End: Even cornered and mortally wounded, she's able to use her hacking to kill one of Faraday's enforcers and attempt to take out the other until he finishes her off.
• Exotic Eye Designs: It's more subtle than someone like Rebecca's, but Kiwi's optics are pink irises with yellow sclerae.
• Fan Disservice: We get to see Kiwi's naked body once again episode 6 after she was knocked out cold by Maine in a fit of psychosis. It's portrayed as uncomfortable to witness as you'd imagine.
• Gasmask Longcoat: Wears a filtration implant resembling a gas mask in addition to her overcoat.
• Heel–Face Door-Slam: Kiwi, despite her philosophy regarding trust, clearly feels guilty for betraying the crew to Faraday and outright rejects his offer for corporate protection and a job within Arasaka. Unfortunately, Faraday had no intention of upholding his end of the deal, and has her killed to eliminate loose ends. The most she does to atone is direct David to Arasaka Tower to get some overdue revenge.
• Heel Realization: After helping Faraday sell out Lucy to Arasaka, Kiwi begins having second thoughts about the matter despite betrayal being an everyday occurrence in Night City. This culminates in her wanting to cut ties with Faraday, and later leaking Faraday's location to David after Faraday shoots her.
• Hidden Buxom: She's actually about as endowed as Lucy under her red overcoat, if not bigger. It's best shown in the scene where she's talking to Maine and David while in her birthday suit.
• Horrible Judge of Character: Zigzagged.Faraday is more than willing to sell out David's entire crew to get in with the corporations. Kiwi decides to cut a deal with him. Any sane person would understand that a man who tosses people who worked for him into the meatgrinder will probably do the same to you. On the other hand, she was right about David slowly but surely becoming less reliable and that it was only a matter of time before the crew would destroy itself.
• Karmic Death: After selling out her team to Faraday, she dies betrayed herself, as Faraday already had orders from Arasaka to "take care of" anyone who has any knowledge about the cyberskeleton program.
• Mission Control: While she'll go out into the field if needed, Kiwi's role as the crew's go-to netrunner relegates her mostly to a support role. She helps the crew by remotely disabling security, alerting them to threats and gathering information through hacking.
• The Mole: Is actually a part of Faraday's team, and once he turns from being a supporter for Militech to being Arasaka's lapdog, Kiwi follows suit and sets the team up to take the fall to get cozy with Arasaka... however, she has second thoughts towards the end and decides to simply try and skip town. When Faraday tries to tie up loose ends, Kiwi ends up biting it and makes her final act to screw over Faraday by leading a vengeful David right at him before she's riddled with lead by his goons.
• No Honor Among Thieves: Her motto is that you shouldn't trust anyone in Night City. She ends up selling out her protege Lucy and David's gang to Arasaka in the final episodes, and she herself is betrayed and killed by her employer Faraday.
• No Mouth: Kiwi's gas mask is actually a specialized facial implant— when Maine accidentally knocks it off in episode 6, you get a split second to see that the bottom half of her face is just a hollowed-out metal cavity. Somehow she can still drink and smoke through the implant so it still connects to her esophagus. The show's official twitter account later released a piece of concept art that gives a more detailed look at her face.
• Odd Friendship: With Falco. A cynical, icy, antisocial and heavily chromed-up hacker is good friends with a friendly, personable, mostly organic Southern Gentleman wheelman. Falco is loyal almost to a fault, while Kiwi advises others to "never trust a soul in Night City" and ultimately betrays the team. Despite their differences, they seem to greatly enjoy each other's company, even relaxing together in the car's cabin on jobs while the rest of the team goes in guns-blazing, and she trusts him enough to let him keep watch over her body while she's netrunning in the ice bath. There are some subtle hints throughout their scenes together that they might be more than just friends.
• Regretful Traitor: She clearly regrets backstabbing Lucy, David, and the crew, but by the time her guilty conscience starts acting up, she's killed by Faraday and his goons.
• Rewarded as a Traitor Deserves: She sells out her friends in exchange for money and Arasaka corporate protection. Instead, Faraday rewards her with a bullet, telling her part of his own deal is eliminating anyone who knows about the cyberskeleton project.
• Screw This, I'm Out of Here!: Her plan after luring her friends into a trap is for Faraday to send Kiwi her payment then skip town. Unfortunately, Faraday says the job isn't over and demands an in-person meetup for the payment. Even Kiwi seems to realize it's a trap before meeting him anyway.
• Shameless Fanservice Girl: Like Lucy she doesn't bother with a cooling suit and instead prefers to lie in an ice bath for intensive netrunning, and she doesn't mind holding conversations in the buff once she unplugs.
• Ship Tease:
  • A bit between her and Falco appears here and there throughout the series, while nothing overly explicit like with David and Lucy, we do see the two are closest to each other, and when Maine knocks her out during a cyberpsychosis episode Falco goes ballistic and knocks him out in return. When Kiwi is betrayed by Faraday and on her last breath, it's Falco she calls to get her revenge.
  • Going by the way he talks to her about "old times" one could assume at some point Kiwi hooked up with Faraday for a little bit.
  • Pilar seems to think she's into David and she doesn't seem overly outraged at the suggestion, but they hardly interact so that doesn't go anywhere.
• The Smart Girl: She serves as the crew's main netrunner, handling information gathering and hacking threats.
• Statuesque Stunner: She's deceptively tall, with a group shot in "Lucky You" revealing she's even taller than Dorio.
• The Stoic: Kiwi comes across as cold and aloof while taking all of the crew's zaniness with a deadpan demeanor. Her filtration implant contributes to Kiwi appearing emotionless since her lack of a mouth means she's limited in facial expressions.
• Taking You with Me: A variant. After Faraday betrays and shoots her, Kiwi contacts Falco and sends him Faraday's coordinates to ensure a vengeful David takes him down. Kiwi doesn't live to see it, but David indeed ends up taking Faraday out in rather spectacular fashion.
• Tattooed Crook: Kiwi is a criminal Netrunner who sports some pretty elaborate spider-web tattoos running across her body, a motif that could be a reference to legendary netrunner Spider Murphy or a subtle hint to her dubious allegiances.
• Too Dumb to Live: Sells out her crewmates to the treacherous Farady, only to take him at his word when he says he wants to see her one last time, and when they meet then she will get her pay. You'd think with how often it was preached to not trust anyone, something she even taught Lucy herself, that she would know better than to trust him, but she didn't, and it leads to her being betrayed by him in turn. To her credit, she did seem to know something was up when Faraday asked to see her one last time but she doesn't take any precautions before going the meeting place.
• You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Faraday convinces her to betray all of her friends with the promise of a big payout and corporate protection. Kiwi succeeds in luring them into a trap but Faraday mortally wounds her at the meetup for her payment, saying Arasaka wants her tied up as a loose end.

Pilar

Pilar

"Check out the precision, chooms! Fastest fingers in the West."

Voiced by: Wataru Takagi (Japanese), Ian James Corlett (English), Armando Guerrero (Latin American Spanish)

The techie of Maine's crew, working alongside his sister Rebecca.

---

• Abhorrent Admirer: He comes on to Lucy despite his advances being clearly unwanted. When he gets especially handsy she uses quickhacks on him to get him to back off. Lucy still cared enough about him to honor him in the Columbarium, referring to him, along with Maine and Dorio, as the closest she had to family.
• Casanova Wannabe: Constantly tries to hit on Lucy and is constantly rebuffed for it—usually by her quickhacks.
• Creepily Long Arms: His cybernetic arms are disproportionately long compared to his body, giving him a rather inhuman body type.
• Decoy Protagonist: Set up to be a major member of the crew along with Maine, Dorio, and the rest, he gets his brains blown out in only his second episode.
• Died Standing Up: After Pilar gets his brains blown out by the homeless cyberpsycho, his body is still standing up, frozen in his last moments.
• Fatal Flaw: Wrath. Pilar loves to trash-talk and harass just about everyone. It bites him hard when he and the crew encounter a homeless man urinating in public. When Pilar begins harassing him, even though the crew tries to get him to back off (because it’s not important), it swiftly becomes apparent that he's picking on a crazed and violently homicidal cyberpsycho. Yet Pilar continues to threaten and mock him right up until an arm cannon obliterates his head in response.
• Gangsta Style: Exaggerated the only time he's seen using a gun while sticking up David, using his cyberarms to hold his pistol upside down with his arm wrapped around his head.
• Gender-Blender Name: Pilar is traditionally a Spanish name reserved for women.
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He's a crass jackass at best, but after David gets accepted into the crew he makes an effort to be friends with him, up to taking him out to Lizzie's Bar for braindance sessions together. Though this is somewhat Deconstructed, however, in regards to his death. He might be (somewhat) nice to his friends, but Pilar is still a Jerkass to everyone else, which causes him to bully/harass the wrong person, even though the person in question isn't really doing anything to bother him or the crew. It doen't end well for Pilar in the slightest
• Karmic Death: His inability to stop harassing a random homeless man, who turns out to be a crazed cyberpsycho, leads to the man blasting Pilar's head off.
• Mad Bomber: Specializes in explosives while being more than a little unhinged.
• Noodle People: Even by Cyberpunk standards, the guy is remarkably gangly-looking, owing to his cyber-enhanced arms.
• One-Way Visor: Sports a sick-looking visor that he's never seen without.
• Plucky Comic Relief: Pilar mainly serves as comic relief, being the wackiest member of Maine's crew. Despite being a Forgotten Fallen Friend for the most part, his violent death puts an emotional damper on the crew's future prospects.
• Practically Different Generations: According to Word of God, Pilar is in his late thirties while his sister Rebecca is 20.
• Sacrificial Lamb: He's set up as a major member of the crew but he doesn't get much development before his sudden death two episodes after his introduction, which serves to prove, in gruesome and spectacular fashion, that in Night City, absolutely no one is safe.
• Shoo Out the Clowns: He is a borderline crazy guy who serves as the team clown and resident Chew Toy. His messy death establishes that, in this series, Comedic Sociopathy can result in some severe consequences.
• Sibling Team: He and his sister Rebecca both work as mercs for Maine's gang.
• Surprisingly Sudden Death: Pilar's death is incredibly abrupt. His head's blown off without warning while he's mocking a random man who's taking a piss in public, never realizing the guy he's threatening is a cyberpsycho.
• Too Dumb to Live: Gets his head exploded by a cyberpsycho after continually mouthing off and antagonizing him, all while being completely unaware of the danger literally underneath his chin.
• Undignified Death: The top of Pilar's head gets blown off while he's in the middle of trash-talking a bare-dicked cyberpsycho who was taking a piss.
  Kiwi: Although, some edgerunners die in more shame than they started with.
• Unwitting Instigator of Doom: As the team's techie, he could have counseled Maine about the issues with his cyberware. He could have also given him advice about swapping them out for something better. But because he went and got himself killed, the crew was left without a techie and thus Maine didn't have anyone to talk to in regards to how to deal with his cyberpsychosis, leading to him and Dorio's deaths and starting a chain of events that would lead to the rest of the crew (bar Lucy and Falco) dying as well.
• We Hardly Knew Ye: He dies in the episode right after he's properly introduced, and is overall the least-developed member of Maine's crew.
• Your Head Asplode: In abrupt and explicit detail by a Cyberpsycho at point-blank range as he continued to mouth off at the man for crossing their territory, oblivious of the danger.

Rebecca

Rebecca

"And now, here comes the big guns!"

Voiced by: Tomoyo Kurosawa (Japanese), Alex Cazares (English), Melissa Gedeón (Latin American Spanish)

Another solo who works on Maine's crew, along with her brother Pilar.

---

• 10-Minute Retirement: It isn't particularly commented on, but Rebecca doesn't join the job that Maine's crew takes after her brother's death. We don't actually see her again until after the timeskip where David has taken over the crew.
• Action Girl: Rebecca packs plenty of heat as the firearms specialist and she’s pretty volatile on the battlefield. Safe to say, she looks like she’s having the time of her life.
• Anger Born of Worry: Rebecca deeply cares about her crew and is just as ready to get angry as all hell when they are in danger. This reaches a point where she's intensely vitriolic with David as his health massively declines due to his cybernetics, especially once he dons the Cyberskeleton, and is constantly mouthing off at him due to her frustration over him progressively killing himself... however, once it's clear that David has finally slipped off the deep end completely as they rush to Arasaka to bust out Lucy, she drops the attitude altogether and sadly accepts he's on his last legs and makes her goal to get him to the top of Arasaka to save Lucy by any means necessary.
• Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: She may bicker with Pilar a lot, but deep down Rebecca does love her brother. When Pilar is killed by a Cyberpsycho, Rebecca snaps and ventilates her brother’s killer with enough bullets to fill a lead mine even after David and Maine had already taken care of the psycho themselves. While she claims her grief was because she wanted to kill Pilar first, it's clearly not to be taken seriously.
• BFG: Post-time skip, she trades out her pistols for heavy-duty shotguns and light machine guns that she can now wield with her Power Fists.
• Black Bra and Panties: What she wears underneath her jacket.
• Blood Knight: She’s easily the most trigger-happy of Maine’s crew. If there is a gunfight, expect to see Rebecca laughing and smiling while firing away.
• Bubblegum Popping: She is seen chewing gum and does this when David comes to her house to give Pilar his new hands.
• Cruel and Unusual Death: Is Squashed Flat by Adam Smasher just before the crew can make their getaway, with what's left of her being not pretty, having been pretty much laterally bisected down the middle.
• Dark and Troubled Past: The distinctive skull iconography of her tattoos, neon pink and blue color scheme, her Stripperiffic outfit and promiscuity, and her fierce predilection for violence in support of her allies all heavily imply that Rebecca used to roll with The Mox, a ragtag self-defense gang entirely comprised of sex workers and sexual minorities operating in Night City, prior to joining Maine's edgerunner crew alongside her brother.
• Death by Irony: Rebecca effectively died as she lived: screaming with rage, cussing a storm of obscenities, firing bullets like crazy, and not getting out of the way of clear trouble. Doubly applies given much of her involvement later on involves chastising David for overchroming like there's no tomorrow and wanting him to cut it back a bit, despite her recklessness ultimately doing her in.
• Defiant to the End: Doesn't even hesitate to square up with Adam Smasher dropping down above her, her last act being a boisterous "fuck you" as they collide into one another.
• Fatal Flaw: Her rage. She's shown to be very quick to anger, which at times was shown to affect her ability to think rationally, such as when she attacked the cyberpsychosis-afflicted homeless man after he killed her brother, putting her directly in his line of fire. Her anger is what ultimately gets her killed in the end, as her choosing to angrily shoot at Adam Smasher rather than moving out of his way is what leads to her getting, well, smashed.
• Girlish Pigtails: Ties her hair up like this when she's working.
• Gun Nut: Similar to her Mad Bomber brother, she is the team's firearms specialist, and not very stable by the average person's standard.
• Hair-Trigger Temper: She's very quick to anger and a lot of her dialogue is her expressing her exasperation. It's her temper that ends up getting her killed in the end.
• Hidden Depths: Rebecca has a tattoo on her leg that reads "PK DICK", in reference to famed science fiction writer Philip K. Dick. Now whoever would've expected such a hot blooded spitfire like her to be so well-read?
• Hopeless Suitor: She has feelings for David and blatantly flirts with him but David never seems to realize it, only having eyes for Lucy. Rebecca even lampshades David being Oblivious to Love when she asks Kiwi if she should change up her loud and aggressive style of flirting.
• Hypocritical Heartwarming:
  • Goes ballistic when a cyberpsycho kills her brother. She says it's because she wanted to kill him someday, even shooting off whatever's left of Pilar's head, but it's clear it's all talk and she did love him.
  • After David starts feeling the effects of cyberpsychosis, she pretty much spends the rest of her time alive deeply concerned with David putting himself in harm's way for the sake of the group... despite her herself being heavily chromed up and equally as aggressive in a firefight.
• I Call It "Vera": Her usual go-to weapon is her power shotgun “Guts”. This can be found in Cyberpunk 2077 if you know where to look.
• Iconic Item: Her pink and green power shotgun, nicknamed "Guts". It can be found and used in Cyberpunk 2077 near Arasaka Tower, where she dies as part of the 1.6 update, which featured various crossover content.
• I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Part of the reason why she gives up her Anger Born of Worry in the final episode with David is that she realizes he needs Lucy to stay stable, and abandons her romantic feelings to ensure David can save Lucy by any means necessary.
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: She’s violent, unstable and has a mouth dirtier than the tap water in Night City, but Rebecca is ultimately loyal to her crew and to David in particular to the point she joins the raid on Arasaka Tower to rescue Lucy for his sake.
• Just Friends: She has a crush on David but he only has eyes for Lucy, and declines all her advances. Something that annoys her to no end.
  Rebecca: Hey! I ain't good at playing just friends!
• Kiss of Distraction: Taken well beyond kissing in her introduction, where she spills a cup of coffee on the team's mark to distract him and then gives him a hand-job to keep him distracted.
• Lady Swears-a-Lot: It would be easier to count the scenes where Rebecca isn’t cussing up a storm.
• The Lancer: After the timeskip Rebecca serves as David's second-in-command once he takes over the crew following Maine and Dorio's deaths. She's fighting by his side the most during gigs and the only one he trusts enough to tell about the military-grade drugs he needs to fend off cyberpsychosis.
• Manic Pixie Dream Girl: A more straightforward example than Lucy, as her energetic and eccentric personality is authentic, but by the time they meet David only has eyes for Lucy.
• Ms. Fanservice: Wears a Black Bra and Panties underneath her jacket and has no problem being sexual. Hell, she gives a man a handjob at one point.
• The Napoleon: Her short stature is only matched by her short temper, and she's perhaps the most violent and foul-mouthed of the entire original crew.
• Older Than They Look: She's around 20, but she looks about 14.
• Pint-Sized Powerhouse: After her limb upgrades, Rebecca is shown effortlessly dual-wielding light machine guns and heavy shotguns, something that requires considerable physical strength.
• Power Fist: Post-timeskip she equips herself with a bulky pair of red and blue cyberarms that make her hands look completely out of proportion to her body. She can even lift herself off the ground and finger-walk with them. Unlike other examples she doesn't actually punch with them and presumably got them in tribute to her brother, who also had oversized cyber arms as well as to presumably handle bigger guns.
• Practically Different Generations: Per Word of God, Rebecca is 20 while her brother Pilar is in his late thirties.
• Profane Last Words: Her last words before Adam Smasher kills her are "We're having a moment here! FUCK YOU!"
• Red Eyes, Take Warning: She has cybernetic eyes with green irises and red pupils and sclerae, which presumably help her fight.
• Rescue Romance: Downplayed, but she starts flirting with David after he uses his Super-Speed to get her out of hot water with the Afterlife's bouncers — Rebecca having flown into a rage and pulled her gun on one of them when they refused her entry. Afterward she brushes up against him while drinking a bottle.
• Revenge Before Reason: Her attempt to get revenge on the cyberpsycho who killed her brother completely subverts the concept of Unstoppable Rage. Rebecca's anger blinds her and her focusing on nothing but attacking at all costs makes her the least effective she's ever seen in a fight. Maine and Kiwi need to step in multiple times to save her from the cyberpsycho she's trying to kill.
• Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Tries to have one against the Cyberpsycho that killed her brother Pilar, but almost joins him with her reckless abandon, and is outright denied the chance for revenge by David and Maine killing the psycho themselves, screaming her head off as she keeps shooting at the psycho's remains to vent her grief.
• Shameless Fanservice Girl: She has no problem giving a man a handjob in public, snarkily asking David if he enjoyed the show afterward; walks around in her bra, panties, and a half-unzipped hoodie; and has zero qualms answering the door in her underwear.
• Shout-Out:
  • Her small stature, twintails, pale skin, body tattoos, pink and blue color scheme, and short temper basically make her a cyberpunk version of Harley Quinn.
  • She’s also one to another snarky, short-statured, and ill-tempered female character with a Hidden Heart of Gold from a Studio Trigger production in Nonon Jakuzure.
• Sibling Team: She and her brother Pilar both work as mercs in Maine's gang.
• Single Woman Seeks Good Man: She first develops feelings for Nice Guy David after he rescued her from a hostage situation and admits after the Time Skip to liking the vulnerable type.
• Small Girl, Big Gun: She looks like an adolescent and seems to pack the heaviest artillery of the crew.
• Stripperiffic: Downplayed. She wears a half-zipped hoodie that covers most of her up. But going back to the half-zipped part, it's obvious that the jacket and her shoes are all she wears over her underwear going out.
• Surprisingly Sudden Death: Her death at the hands, or, well, feet, of Adam Smasher right after she's reunited with Lucy comes out of nowhere. There isn't even enough time afterward for the other characters to mourn her.
• Tareme Eyes: Her eye design is this, which indicates her unconditional loyalty to her friends and empathy beneath her boisterous and unstable exterior.
• Tattooed Crook: She's a bellicose Solo who acts as the firearms specialist of Maine's Crew and boasts prominent neon pink tattoos featuring the stylized skull iconography of The Mox.
• Throw-Away Guns: Typically, when she runs out of ammo on her guns, rather than reload, she just drops her current guns and brings out a fresh set.
• Token Mini-Moe: Appearance-wise, anyway. Rebecca is the shortest and youngest-looking member of the crew, standing at roughly a head shorter than David's pre-time skip height.
• Too Dumb to Live: While she had no way of knowing that it was Adam Smasher at the time, rather than getting out of the way of the obviously large merc falling out of the sky right above her, she instead chooses to pull out her gun and angrily shoot at it. He crushes her to death.
• Tsundere: Rebecca is aggressive and insulting to the rest of Maine's crew, especially to her brother, but she does care about all of them no matter how much she denies it. David's the one person she acts sweet towards, with the worst he gets usually being Anger Born of Worry.
• Undying Loyalty: To David. When it becomes clear that David has completely lost his mind to cyber psychosis, she resigns herself to following him in what is essentially a suicide mission to rescue Lucy from Arasaka Tower.
• Unrequited Tragic Maiden: Rebecca is smitten with David and openly flirts with him to get him through his depression, but by the time she meets him David's already head over heels for Lucy. Despite David and Lucy's relationship only holding on by a thread, Becca laments to Kiwi that David never notices her. Even knowing she has no chance, Becca's ride-or-die commitment to David leads to her sudden and tragic death at the hands of Adam Smasher once David storms the Arasaka building in a fit of cyberpsychosis.
• Vague Age: Don’t let her youthful appearance fool you. Judging from her age-based insults, she was the youngest member of the team before David showed up, but it's made fairly clear that she's not the young teen she outwardly appears to be, and showrunner Rafal Jaki says that she's around 20 like Lucy. This is played for laughs when the crew enters the Afterlife club but only Rebecca is stopped at the door because the bouncers assume she's underage. She goes ballistic in response and threatens the bouncer, prompting David to bail her out with his Sandevistan in a way that amuses the owner enough to let them pass.
• Vasquez Always Dies: Rebecca, despite her petite appearance, is along the lines of Dorio in the gang as one of the muscles—especially after David takes over from Maine and she becomes his Lancer—compared to Lucy who is far more feminine and less of an Action Girl overall compared to her. However Rebecca, much like Dorio had prior, bites the bullet whereas Lucy is the Sole Survivor of the entire gang (alongside Falco).
• Walking Armory: She has a nigh-endless supply of firepower that she's always ready to whip out once one of her guns runs dry.

Falco

Falco

"Always happy to keep the engine warm."

Voiced by: Yasuyuki Kase (Japanese), Matthew Mercer (English), Edson Matus (Latin American Spanish)

The crew's occasional getaway driver.

---

• Ace Custom: He drives a heavily modified Chevillon Emperor named the "Edgerunner" that's heavily modified with all sorts of awesome doodads, including a retractable roof, front end ram bars, a manned roof turret, and a grappling hook cannon.
• An Arm and a Leg: Loses his cybernetic arm to Adam Smasher, who offhandedly punches Falco for being in the way, sending him flying but still alive.
• Artificial Limbs: He's packing significantly less chrome than the rest of Maine's squad, but he does have a cybernetic arm.
• Awesome Anachronistic Apparel: Dresses, talks, and behaves like an Old West cowboy, in the year 2076.
• Badass Driver: He serves as the crew's getaway driver but he doesn't get to show off how badass he is until the final arc. The finale has him outrunning entire convoys sent by Militech, Arasaka and MaxTac.
• Badass Normal: Compared to everyone else, Falco's only cybernetic enhancement appears to be his right arm. The fact that despite this he's still brave enough to stand his ground and open fire on Adam Smasher despite witnessing him splatter the considerably-more enhanced Rebecca into a smear on the pavement seconds earlier, cements his Badass Normal status forever.
• Beware the Nice Ones: A pleasant and friendly Southern Gentleman, he nevertheless throws a punch that sends MAINE flying when the latter is undergoing some serious Sanity Slippage and almost kills Kiwi while hallucinating.
• Canon Foreigner: Technically; he's the one that contacts V in 2077 and gives them info about David, and the game update he was introduced in dropped a week before the show launched.
• Comic-Book Fantasy Casting: He's a dead ringer for Charles Bronson, specifically his Paul Kersey character from Death Wish.
• Cool Old Guy: While it's not clear precisely how old he is, he's definitely considerably older than the rest of the team^note He's visually based on a 53-year old Charles Bronson to the extent that Rebecca calls him "old man", strong enough to send Maine flying across the room with one punch, and a good enough driver to outrun dozens of pursuit vehicles from Militech, Arasaka, and MaxTac.
• Covert Pervert: Implied, given that he joins Pilar and David for a braindance session at Lizzie's.
• Cowboy: He's got everything but the ten-gallon hat.
• Deadpan Snarker: He gives as good as he gets when verbally sparring with Rebecca.
  Rebecca: (referring to him and Kiwi) Granny and Grampsy are on the bench this round! I drive!
  Falco: Think your little chicken legs will reach the pedals?
  Rebecca: YO! (Beat) Fair.
• Defiant to the End: Doesn't hesitate to stand up, whip out his gun and unload on the hulking Adam Smasher despite seeing him turn Rebecca into a wet smear on the ground only seconds earlier. Surprisingly, he actually survives the fight.
• Early-Bird Cameo: Shows up as early as episode 3, watching Pilar juggle bottles with Dorio. He also shows up against in episode 4 when he goes to Lizzies with David and Pilar.
• Et Tu, Brute?: Though he hides it well, Falco is clearly more furious than anyone else on the team when Kiwi betrays them, owing to the fact that of anyone else on the team, they were each other's closest friends.
• Expy: Matthew Mercer uses his McCree voice basically unchanged to play Falco, and his outfit is even reminescent of the former's Riverboat skin.
• Flat Character: Compared to the rest of the colorful members of Maine's Crew, Falco doesn't really have much in the way of character development beyond being their getaway driver and is largely Out of Focus until the very end of the series.
• I Gave My Word: Follows David's Last Request to the letter and immediately jumps ship with Lucy in tow, despite her pleas, to escape while David distracts Adam Smasher so Lucy can fulfill her dream of living to the Moon.
• Made of Iron: He survives getting Punched Across the Room by Adam Smasher. These are the same punches that ripped David's cyberskeleton to pieces with little to no difficulty.
• Manly Facial Hair: Wears a simply magnificent handlebar moustache that adds to his "cowboy of the future" appearance.
• My Horse Is a Motorbike: A variation, in that he's very similar to the traditional "wandering cowboy" archetype in appearance and personality but he drives the Chevillon Emperor "Edgerunner" instead of a horse.
• Nice Guy: Definitely the nicest member the crew, second only to David. Falco is a polite gentleman.
• Nonstandard Character Design: He looks slightly more realistic since he's modeled after a real person.
• Odd Friendship:
  • With Rebecca. A polite, gentlemanly smooth-talking and mostly organic middle-aged man who mostly stays behind the wheel and out of the fight is Vitriolic Best Buds with a diminutive, loud-mouthed, and incredibly crass young woman who loves guns and murder and is almost entirely cybernetic.
  • Also with Kiwi. Both of them are NonActionGuys who typically hang back and let others handle the gunplay, but Kiwi is a heavily cybermodded hacker who represents the peak of Night City fashion while Falco appears entirely human except for his cybernetic left arm and dresses like a cowboy. Falco is warm, personable, good-natured and loyal, while Kiwi is stoic, detached, deadpan, and self-serving. They can often be seen hanging out together, with Falco casually relaxing in the truck with Kiwi in episode 7 while the others clear out the Maelstrom thugs. Despite their considerable differences, they seem to be closer friends with each other than they are with anyone else on the crew, possibly more than friends. While nobody's happy about Kiwi's betrayal, Falco is clearly furious in a manner that's clearly personal. Conversely, Kiwi cares enough about him to non-lethally knock him out when betraying the team, and when calling the team in her dying minutes, it's Falco who she calls to personally apologize to.
• Only Sane Man: Has by far the least amount of psychological hangups of anyone on the crew, and not coincidentally, is the only one other than Lucy to survive as a result.
• Passing the Torch: In 2077, Falco gifts V the yellow EMT jacket that belonged to David, acknowledging that while their fifteen minutes of fame are up, V still has time on the clock to pull off what David and his crew couldn't.
• The Reliable One: Easily the most professional and least insane member of the entire team, who can always be counted on to do his job calmly and efficiently even when everyone else is going nuts. He's trustworthy enough that David's final order is telling Falco to get Lucy to safety while he holds off Adam Smasher.
• Remember the New Guy?: Falco's proper introduction as the team's driver in the final arc of the story can be a bit awkward. He is first named in episode 6 as a guy the team knows and works with, though he is only briefly seen before that episode, and never actually during a job.
• Retired Badass: In 2077, Falco admits to V that his "fifteen minutes are up" and is pretty much leaving Night City for a new life. Though not before using his remaining connections to leave behind David's yellow EMT jacket.
• Saved by Canon: Due to his presence in the "Edgerunners" update in the game by contacting V to pass along info about what happened to David, it's clear he survives the entire series.
• Ship Tease: A bit with Kiwi, he tends to be very protective of her, almost always seen hanging out with her, watches over her net diving like David did for Lucy, knocks out Maine when he attacks Kiwi in a fit of cyberpsycosis, and is the only one Kiwi outright apologizes to for betraying. Notably, Rebecca mocks him on one occasion by referring to him and Kiwi as "Granny and Grampsy."
• Sole Survivor: The last living member left from Maine's crew by the end of the series, along with Lucy.
• Southern Gentleman: He has a polite demeanor, a Waistcoat of Style, a handlebar mustache, and a smooth drawl. It's ambiguous how much is genuine and how much is an affectation though, as it's common in Night City to dress and act in outlandish ways. Rebecca even claims that his "cowboy 'stache" is too cool for him.
• Token Good Teammate: While nobody in the team is that evil, even Pilar, they're all pretty violent and aggressive towards strangers or anyone who remotely gets in their way. Falco is unique among the crew in being mostly a law-abiding citizen who rarely throws the first punch and is the quickest to come to another's aid. He's also by far the most socially well-adjusted out of anyone in the crew, and is polite, dependable, and brave.
• Tranquil Fury:
  • When Maine goes crazy and knocks out Kiwi, Falco's face goes black and after a few seconds delivers a devastating right hook knocking a crazed Maine out. When David asks what's going on later, Falco says to just talk to Maine and peels off.
  • Later, when Kiwi calls him after her betrayal, Falco calmly listen what she had got to say, but his words and look leave no doubts about his hostility, scorn and anger felt to her.
• Undying Loyalty: To David. He doesn't hesitate to sign up on David's suicide mission to attack Arasaka Tower despite not being particularly close with either him or Lucy. Later, he actually stands his ground against Adam Smasher, despite witnessing him turn Rebecca into pulp seconds earlier and only flees when David tells him to get Lucy to safety while he distracts Adam.
• Vitriolic Best Buds: While Rebecca has elements of this with most of the main crew, Falco stands out for actively antagonizing and teasing her. Despite this, they care for each other enough that when Adam Smasher gruesomely kills Rebecca, Falco whips out his revolver and opens fire on the massive hulking cyborg instead of retreating.

Julio

Julio

Voiced by: Soma Saito (Japanese), Bryce Papenbrook (English), Donald Reignoux (French), Alan Bravo (Latin American Spanish)

A newbie merc who accompanies David and Rebecca on a mission.

---

• Ascended Fanboy: He's a David fanboy, something that amuses Rebecca to no end, and gets to work alongside his idol on a gig.
• Failed a Spot Check: He fails to spot a trip mine the Maelstrom gang left behind as a booby trap and walks right into it.
• Leeroy Jenkins: After David and Rebecca clear the area of all Maelstrom enemies, Julio carelessly runs ahead without checking for traps and is immediately killed by a trip mine.
• Ludicrous Gibs: A trip mine turns him into red paste splattering the walls and floor, leaving nothing but an arm behind, still gripping the weapon David loaned him.
• Miles Gloriosus: He brags that he can handle himself in a fight, but during the actual mission he's only seen cowering in fear while David, Rebecca, and Kiwi do all the actual work. The only time he actually shows any courage is when all of the Maelstrom members are dead and he charges ahead to rescue their prisoners until he steps on a trip mine. In the 2.0 update of 2077, Lucy would even commend his spirit in his niche in the Columbarium.
  "He blew us away with his enthusiasm."
• Motor Mouth: Practically unbearable in conversation to the point of driving Rebecca crazy, Julio’s desire to speak at almost all times comes to the point that he even likes to repeatedly mimic sound effects from anything he finds cool.
• New Meat: He's noted to be very inexperienced and spends most of the mission with his hero being scared out of his mind during the firefight with Maelstrom.
• No Kill like Overkill: That aforementioned tripmine didn't just gib him, but also zaps his body right before the detonation. It was likely a taser intended to tag even Sandevistan-using chromes right at the same time the explosion would pulp its targets, which would've probably fried the average runner's internals.
• Red Shirt: He exists solely to be killed off in his only mission with David.
• Too Dumb to Live: One of the reasons his death is probably the only one in the whole series that’s played for a joke. He blindly runs forward while ignoring David’s warnings.
• The Uriah Gambit: It's implied that Wakako deliberately loaned Julio to David's team as a means to get rid of him, given how nonchalant she is about his death and how annoying his personality was.
• We Hardly Knew Ye: He doesn't even survive the first mission he participates in. In spite of this, the crew would see fit to give him a niche in the Columbarium in 2077.

Sasha

Sasha Yakovleva

Voiced by: N/A

A former netrunner in Maine's crew who died prior to the events of Edgerunners. She's only seen in "Let You Down" prequel music video.

---

• Animal Motifs: Cats. Her mouth has a subtle cat smile, the headset she uses to hack Biotechnica gives her cat ears, she fights with claws and graceful leaps, and the icon she uses in holo calls is a cute kitty face. And of course, curiosity kills this cat, so she doesn't land on her feet.
• Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Despite being shot, plunging from a skyscraper and landing on a car, Sasha's body is completely intact when found by Maine.
• Bubblegum Popping: She's seen casually chewing on gum and blowing bubbles while sneaking into high-security facilities and hacking confidential files.
• Can't Stop the Signal: She dies making sure the information that Biotechnica knowingly sold painkillers that caused neurodegeneration to the public is uploaded to the tip-line for N54 News.
• Comic-Book Fantasy Casting: She's based on Youtuber Suzi Hunter, AKA The Sphere Hunter. Suzi would later play Sasha's sister Stella in the Phantom Liberty DLC of 2077.
• Disney Villain Death: A heroic example. She's shot out a window of Biotechnica HQ and falls several stories to her death.
• Go Out with a Smile: When Maine finds her body, she's smiling peacefully in death.
• Hero of Another Story: She's only seen in the "Let You Down" official music video, depicting her on a job for Maine's crew which quickly spirals into her getting revenge on the company that caused her mother's death.
• Hold the Line: Sasha knows she's not going to survive her fight in Biotechnica HQ, but she stays behind anyway, fighting off defense robots to make sure the confidential information she's leaking to the press is successfully uploaded.
• No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: She decides to leak Biotechnica's coverup of Securicine's deadly side effects, but ends up dying in a shootout with Biotechnica security as a result.
• Posthumous Character: She's dead prior to the events of Edgerunners with Kiwi having already replaced her as the netrunner in Maine's crew.
• Small Role, Big Impact: She only appears in one stand-alone clip, but she makes an impact in several ways.
  • It is all but spelled-out that Maine blamed himself for her death and that her death convinced him he needed to be stronger and faster. This attitude lead to his cyberpsychosis and death.
  • Because he all but idolized Maine, David Martinez took over Maines good, but also his bad habits, including the addiction to chroming up.
  • Because she died the crew didn't have a netrunner, so she was replaced with Kiwi, who would end up betraying them.
• What You Are in the Dark: When she comes across Biotechnica's hidden data about Securicine, she had already stolen the data she was looking for and could have escaped the Biotechnica building before security responded. However, she decides to stay longer in order to expose the Securicine coverup.
• Wolverine Claws: She had massive retractable Rippers built into her right arm.
• You Killed My Mother: The reason she gives her life to expose Biotechnica's dirty secrets is to avenge her mother because Securicine, the painkillers the company sold and Sasha's mother used, had side effects that ultimately led to her mother's death by neurodegeneration, something Biotechnica knew about all along but refused to fix or disclose to the public.
