The Threshold is where every new character begins: a blank white space
outside the city where you decide who you are before Night City decides for
you.
Choosing your role
- choose shows the roles open in the pilot.
- choose <role> shows that role's card and asks you to confirm.
- The card also shows the role's starter build: recommended stats
and skills you get when you choose. sheet shows them afterwards.
- Answer yes to lock it in. Anything else backs out.
- Choosing hands you the role's starter kit: weapons, armor, clothes
and 500 eddies. inventory lists it. Starter gear is unbreakable
for now.
- Your description is written for you from your role, your clothes and
your COOL. look me or describe shows it.
- enter Night City takes you through the door frame.
Your role is permanent. There is no respec. Read help solo and help
medtech before you choose, and the skill and ability files they point to.

into the room (how does combat work?), use say, or ask crane about

it.
