This is a preview of Hard Wired Island: Second Gig, an upcoming expansion for the retrofuture cyberpunk RPG Hard Wired Island(currently on Kickstarter!) It contains the four new Occupations:

  • The Agent is a consummate intelligence gatherer. Whether it's the word on the street or the secret you don't want anyone to know, the Agent will deduce it and use it to their advantage. (Just one more thing...) Besides letting you live out your cyberpunk detective fantasies, the Agent plays on Hard Wired Island's community rules, adding new ways to call upon your community and contacts for assistance.
  • The Crosser has spent most of their life in Grand Cross, and they've been molded by it. Now they can use their deep knowledge of the city to defend it. The Crosser is unique in that all their Talents are shared with other Occupations, adding new options for everyone. For example, their Electric Druid Talent (which lets them call on the station's robotic wildlife for assistance) can also be taken by the Hacker.
  • The Enforcer uses violence (or the threat of) and criminal skills to solve problems. The Enforcer plays with Hard Wired Island's aim to make social situations at least as important as combat by being great at intimidating, provoking and fighting people. Sometimes words don't work and you just have to punch a guy.
  • The Warlock is an escaped victim of a corporate experiment that gave them cybernetic augments with strange, almost alien powers. The Warlock is truly unique: the Talents they choose can never be taken by someone else, not even another Warlock. However, they also come with trade-offs which can't be avoided.

On Kickstarter now!
