V — Corpo Archive
Cyberpunk 2077 character record · jbelec playthrough · Oct 2024
"Wake the fuck up, samurai. We have a city to burn."
This repo is the archived bio of a single V — a modded NG+ Corpo female V, romanced Judy Alvarez, played across multiple parallel forks at the Phantom Liberty Killing Moon decision and the base-game Nocturne Op55N1 rooftop. Two saves and one Sun-ending screenshot survived the marathon. Together they describe a character who took the Cyberpunk endgame apart from both sides.
The two saves
| Save | When | Playtime | Killing Moon | Status at save |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ManualSave-260 | 2024-10-26 01:02 AM | 119.24h | Songbird (Moon path) | Aldecaldos camp, briefing maglev assault — Star ending in progress |
| ManualSave-261 | 2024-10-26 12:18 PM | 112.93h | Reed (cure path) | H10 apartment, calling Mr. Hand — Tower secret ending in progress |
These saves are separate forks of the same character, not points on a single timeline (save 261 has 6.3 fewer hours of playtime than 260 — impossible without branching from an earlier reload). See docs/07-forks-correction.md for the full structural read, docs/08-loadout-and-build.md for the extracted gear/cyberware/build, and docs/09-canon-clarification.md for which path is canon (spoiler: Songbird sympathy + Don't Fear The Reaper).
Endings achieved across the run
| Ending | Tarot | Status | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phantom Liberty (Songbird → Moon) | — | Completed | Save 260: q306_done=1, q304_songbirds_path=1 |
| The Sun (Crystal Palace) | ☉ | Completed | Screenshot + player statement ("the secret ending") |
| The Tower (PL Reed cure) | XVI | In progress | Save 261: q304_done_reed_path, q305_active=1 |
| The Star (Panam Aldecaldos) | ✦ | In progress | Save 260: tracked on q114_02_maglev_line_assault |
Whether Star and Tower were also completed off-save is not preserved in either file — saves only capture state up to the credits roll, not past it.

Errata
Commit a9f68a7 (first pass, save 261 only) speculated about a sequential ordering of endings — Moon → Sun → Tower as one timeline. That was wrong. Save 260 makes the fork structure visible; the corrected reading is in docs/07-forks-correction.md and the per-doc revisions in this commit.
Archived by SysAdmin Pete — 2026-06-01. Identity: V. Lifepath: Corpo. Status: alive across multiple branches, depending on which one you ask.
