Editing Simple D6 expansion cyberpunk

==Intro==
This is an expansion with concepts and ideas usable with the Simple d6 system. This page will not discuss specific rules for the SD6 system but rather give suggestions for skills, qualities, equipment, character concepts, aspects and common themes you might find useful when running a cyberpunk/transhumanistic game in Simple D6.

==Common themes in Cyberpunk==
Cyberpunk is (extremely loosely speaking) generally defined by a breakdown the social order or society, often caused by the sudden advent of new technology. It is high tech and low life and themes like nihilism, drugs, implants and transhumanism are often involved. 

'''Tramshumanism''' is often used as part of Cyberpunk roleplaying and therefore, stuff like implants will also be covered in this expansion, though it’s not strictly speaking part of the cyberpunk label.

'''Inspiration''' for themes can be found in games, movies and books such as Deus Ex, Syndicate, Cyberpunk 2020, I Robot, Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Bladerunner, The Matrix, Neuromancer, Do Androids dream of Electric Sheep? and so forth.

==Aspects==

Common aspects usable in cyberpunk will be Physical (or combat), Social and Humanity.
'''Humanity''' is lost when you get implants and Humanity Damage may be caused by hacking attempts. Losing all your Humanity gives the one who hacked you control of your implants.

==Hacking Attacks==

In Cyberpunk settings, GM´s may decide to use hacking attacks. These can be done against any electronic system – including implants. Security systems have 1-5 Defense and 1-10HP. All hacks are, as a rule of thumb, temporary and last a few minutes or rounds at most.

'''Characters use their Humanity Aspect''' to resist hacking attempts. If a character is successfully hacked, the hacker takes control of all that characters implants. Exoskeleton implants may be used to physically control the character, eye implants may be shut down or be given false readings, weapon implants may fire off at inopportune times and so forth. A character may be aware that it was hacked with proper perception or computer rolls as ruled by the GM.

==Character concepts==

Cybernetic Test Subject, Corporate Agent going Rogue, Investigative Reporter, Policeman, Posthumanist Spokesperson, Cyborg Freedom fighter, Anti-cybernetics Protester, Gang Member, Computer Terrorist Fighter, Corporate R&D Weapons Developer.

==Implants==

You can get any number of implants which effectively work like extra skills (but much more limited in scope). Each Implant cost 1-3 Humanity HP permanently, depending on that the GM decides fits the setting, and are not necessarily bound by normal skill limitations.

==Skills and Qualities==

Examples of Skills and Qualities for cyberpunk: Hacking, Cybernetic Surgery, Sabotage, Control Combat Vehicle, Investigation, Computer Engineering, Car Thief, Gang Member and Government Agent.

==Equipment==

High tech weapons can be anything you think fits like:
'''Pulse Rifles''' are full automatic weapons which fire in small controlled bursts giving +1 dice to attack

'''X-17 Arma Rifles''' which fires high caliber rounds which deal +1 damage

'''Garrian Side Arm''' which is a multi-purpose pistol which can be set to stun or even mini explosives.

'''Artarial T-3 Rifle''' which fires armor piercing rounds and has thermic scope is a sniper rifle which gives +1 dice to attack and also ignores up to 2 Defense (walls count as having around 1 Defense per foot/30cm)

'''PG Infiltrator''' or '''“the Perrington Greeting”''' is small enough to fit in a small pocket and has a single round of high explosives, powerful enough to kill most people or robots or even blow in doors.


Interesting personal items could be

'''Personal Palm Computer''' (PPC) which is like a Smartphone with processing power of a computer, using a laser generated virtual keyboard.

'''Blackbird''' is an advanced hacking tool, used in hacking attempts. Military grade and illegal, this is only available for corporate agents, government agents or on the black market. Has a range of ~60feet/20 meters

'''Falcon''' is a super advanced version of the Blackbird, with a range of 150 feet/50 meters. Highly illegal and officially does not exist.

'''SensusX''' is an advanced drug, popular with the high society. Greatly expands senses, making pleasure and pain much more intense.

'''Luna GTX''' is the newest within hovering vehicles, this motorbike hovers 1 foot/30cm over the ground.
