Description
Some claim he's the true Grim Reaper of Night City.
Some say he's Night City's most reliable merc. As long as the money's right, he'll take down any corporation.
Others claim he's the most unreliable merc in the city. Even after accepting a job, if something during the mission disgusts him, he'll call off the contract on the spot and might even turn around and kill the client.
He’s the big shot who changed Night City, the fourth legendary netrunner in many people’s eyes, after Rache Bartmoss, Alt Cunningham, and Spider Murphy.
But in truth...
Mercer himself kept it simple.
“This world is too filthy. I just want to burn everything that bothers me to ashes.”
Of course, before that, he has one problem to solve. Escape from Arasaka’s Netrunner training facility with Lucy. Though to him, that hardly seems difficult.
Run into enemies, overclock the cyberdeck, then chain Cyberware Malfunction + Synapse Burnout for an instant flatline. I mean, isn’t that how we all play a netrunner build?
