Today is another cyberpunk themed six pack. Because nothing ever good happens to your runners even when they are simply travelling from point A to point B.
Cyberpunk encounters while in a Taxi
1 – Repo. The cab you are in suddenly tagged for repossession. But it’s an AI operated tow vehicle that is doing it. While the driver manages to bail out the cab is hacked and all the doors are sealed shut. The tow rig grabs up the vehicle and starts driving at a high rate of speed.
2 – The all girl group Cherry Tops decides to do an impromptu streaming video shoot right in the street and on top of the cab. The driver is into it and is busy eyeballing the girls on his hood and doesn’t care about you. As a huge crowd surrounds the vehicle.
3 – A street courier on a high tech skateboard has latched on to the back of the taxi for a free ride. The drive takes offense to this and starts driving erratically and going off the path to where you are going in an attempt to shake off the pest.
4 – The overly cybered driver is suddenly hacked and the person controlling his body starts attempting to run folks off the road and aims for pedestrians. This causes several folks to start firing back at the vehicle.
5 – The driver is notified they’ve been fired. So that stop, switch over to AI pilot, and walk away. The cars doors lock and it bolts off at high speed and not towards where you were wanting to go.
6 – Out of nowhere the vehicle is surrounded by federal and corporate agents, along with several folks in hazmat suits. The driver screams he going on without a fight, seals the vehicle and starts screaming about the dirty nuke he built in the trunk with stolen materials.
