Roman Carax
A young documentarian seeking unfiltered truth in Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2
Story
Roman is obsessed with traditional filmmaking in a city that has largely abandoned film for braindances. He believes film preserves a boundary that viewers can choose to cross, unlike total immersion in a braindance. Cautious yet determined, kind, and ambitious, he documents messy, brutal stories without forcing them into clean endings. He works for Sal Bigelow at a braindance shop, where he sells footage, and develops genuine bonds with D and Talia. Roman survives the season and continues documenting the survivors.
World
Night City, where braindances and cyberware dominate daily life. Roman serves as one of the least cyberized people among the main cast, observing the human cost of chrome through an almost unmodified body and a traditional camera lens.
Appearance
Short blond hair, green eyes, and a single earring in his left ear. He has almost no visible chrome or cybernetic implants. He carries an older gray handheld camera, a modern green compact camera, and a yellow backpack.
