== Notes ==
Olivia Alexandra, born Olivier Alexander, is the central character of ''The Architekton'', a fiction novel set across two timelines simultaneously: 48 BCE Alexandria and 2072 Night City.

Olivier was a master architect and engineer in the service of Cleopatra VII, displaced from his world during the Alexandrian War by a pre-dynastic artifact called the Shard of Duat. He did not travel through time. He was torn through to a parallel world, a different skin of the same existence, separated not by years but by the thickness of existence itself, and arrived in Night City with a shattered spine, no language, and nothing else.

He was found by [[Gwen Ciceronis]], who rebuilt him from nothing. The body she chose was female. The name she gave him was Olivia Alexandra.

The story follows both timelines in parallel, Olivia learning a world two thousand years beyond anything she knows, while Cleopatra hunts for a way back from the other side of the boundary.

== Biography ==
Olivier Alexander was born on March 8th, 72 BCE, in Ναύκρατις, Naucratis, a Greek trading city in the Egyptian delta, old and cosmopolitan, the kind of place where the Mediterranean world folded into itself. His mother was Lysandra Alexandrou, Egyptian Greek of Macedonian heritage, Naucratis-born, educated, and literate in the way that women of certain Alexandrian families were when the right household allowed it. His father was Publius Naevius Scaeva, a Roman of patrician standing whose business brought him to the delta and whose presence produced a son he would not keep and a woman he would ultimately sell.

Publius Naevius Scaeva did not survive long after that. Olivier saw to it quietly, completely, and without discussion. He took his mother's name, Alexander, and discarded the Roman one as a man discards something that has stopped being useful and started being a stain. The Latin remained in his mouth whether he wanted it or not, inherited in the blood, patrician in its accent and precise in its construction. He uses it when the situation demands it and avoids it otherwise. It tastes, as he once said on a road in the dark, like wolf.

Lysandra's whereabouts are unknown. She was sold before Olivier had the means or the reach to prevent it, and the lead went cold. He thinks of her rarely in the way that a man avoids pressing on a wound that hasn't healed, not because he has let go but because he hasn't, and knows it. Finding her is a priority he is deferring, not abandoning. She is alive somewhere in his mind until proven otherwise.

He grew up predominantly in his mother's world, Koine-speaking, Greek in its rhythms and its references, the language of civilization as far as he was concerned and everything else noise. He educated himself the way certain minds do when they are given access to enough material and left largely alone with it, architecture, engineering, mechanics, writing, the structural logic of how things are built and why they fail. He arrived at the codex book format independently, binding pages rather than rolling scrolls, and considered it a private solution to a practical problem until he encountered another one on a shelf in Night City two thousand years later and understood for the first time that he was not the only fool who had thought of it.

By his early twenties he was in Alexandria, in Cleopatra's world, his hands already carrying the specific competence of someone who has been solving structural problems since before they understood what solving them would become. The title Architekton, Architect, was not given to him romantically. It was a conclusion reached methodically by a woman who notices everything, over the course of a journey on a road in the desert, through the observation of drawings and site assessments and the specific way his mind organized itself in difficult rooms. She decided it before she had the authority to make it real and simply waited to be home before she said it aloud.

He was also Mechanikos, Engineer, which in his hands meant the design of military installations, forge systems, defensive structures, and weapons. It was in this capacity that he was defending the Royal Forge during the War of Alexandria when Magas deployed the Shard of Duat and the world ended for him.

== The Ascalon Promise ==
Cleopatra VII was twenty-one years old and exiled from her own throne when she walked the road to Ascalon. She traveled as a merchant's wife, no royal markers, a small group around her, Charmion, Iras, servants, mercenaries from Pelusium who barely respected her because gold was the only authority on that road. Brutal. Unglamorous. Real.

Olivier followed her because he wanted to. No other reason.

He cooked for her. Cleaned her clothes. Tended to her when bad water made her violently ill, held her hair, rubbed her back, kept her warm, stroked her hair until sleep took her. Things Charmion and Iras would have done, but he preferred them occupied elsewhere. He did it because it is simply what you do for someone you love.

When fever took him weeks later she returned it entirely. In her tent. In private. Her hand in his hair while he slept, her guards dismissed, the girl from the desert fully present in a way the Queen of Egypt was not permitted to be anywhere else.

They survived freezing nights under rough wool blankets, learning the rhythm of each other's breathing. They survived assassins sent by Arsinoe, he tasted her food and slept lightly with a dagger. She only slept soundly because his eyes were open.

On a night somewhere on that road, camp quiet around them, she opened in Latin, ''Tu non es quod videris.'' You are not what you appear to be. He answered without flinching. She pressed further. He stood and sat behind her, his arms around her, her back against his chest, her hand in his. His chin on her shoulder. And he told her, switching mid-sentence from the wolf's language into his mother's and hers:

''Good. Because I do what wolves can't. I do what it takes to protect my gazelle from wolves.''

A small kiss placed slowly on her cheek. She turned her hand over in his. Stopped being tended to. Held on.

''Keep me safe then,'' she said.

''I am. Since we left, now, and beyond death. Always.''

She pressed back against him. Barely perceptibly. And they stayed there.

This is the night she knew. Not in Alexandria with her throne restored and her court watching. Here, on the road, stripped of everything. She filed it the way she files everything that matters, precisely, without flinching, and said nothing.

The Ascalon Promise was whispered later, in the dark, when the shape of what they were to each other had no more need of indirection. He promised to always see the vulnerable girl in the tent. She promised she would never have to wear the Pharaoh mask with him. He promised her a future, children, fierce love, never leaving her side.

He called her δορκάς, Gazelle. She called him Ἀρχιτέκτων, Architekton. He was her equal. The one person the hierarchy dissolved around. Her obsession the logical conclusion of a woman who had never been safe, suddenly finding one person who made her safe without wanting anything in return.

Eighteen days after the Void Strike, she said into a dark corner of her bedchambers: ''I am not passive.'' She has not stopped meaning it since.

== Transition ==
On the 7th of October, 2072, Olivier Alexander materialized in a Pacifica Combat Zone alleyway with a shattered spine, severe burns, and no framework for what Night City was. His mind, steeped in the Egyptian Underworld as the only available mythology for what was happening to him, interpreted the acid rain and neon as Duat. He dragged himself out of an industrial trash compactor and collapsed in the street whispering a name into the rain.

Gwen Ciceronis found him. She did not leave.

What followed was ten days in a private medical facility — communication cobbled together through broken approximations of a language her translation module could not identify, a body too damaged to move, and a woman who stayed every night in the chair beside the bed for reasons she could not yet articulate. When she offered him a solution, a new body, already chosen, the surgery already arranged, he had one condition. She kept it.

He woke on the 15th of October in a body that was female, with synthetic eyes and a spine sealed in gold filament where the damage had been. She was in the chair. She had been there the whole time. She spoke to him in his own language, harvested from his mind without his knowledge and installed in herself, and gave him a name.
Olivia Alexandra.

She is currently in Gwen's penthouse, Aldecaldos Tower, Night City, seventy-two hours into a world she has no map for and learning it the only way she knows how, by looking at everything until it makes sense.

== Relationships ==

'''Cleopatra VII'''

Queen of Egypt. The bond between them was not built in a palace, it was built on a desert road, in fever and cold and hunger, over a month of exile that stripped every pretense from both of them. He followed her to Ascalon because he wanted to. No other reason. What grew from that road became the central fact of his life, the promise he carried into the forge and would have carried beyond it.

He calls her δορκάς, Gazelle. A name given in the dark on a road where she was neither queen nor pharaoh, just the woman he was keeping safe from wolves. She has never asked him to stop.

She is not passive about his absence.

'''[[Gwen Ciceronis]]'''

The woman who found him in the rain and chose not to leave. She rebuilt him from nothing, stayed every night in the chair beside the medical bed, and learned his language to speak to him in it. Their relationship has grown into something neither of them has fully named, built incrementally out of small certain gestures — broken bread offered and received, a coat placed over broken shoulders, a hand held through the dark.

He calls her φιλτάτη. Dearest.

== Augmentations ==
All augmentations are the result of Gwen's bio-sculpt commission, October 2072. Olivier had no cybernetics prior to arrival.

'''Kiroshi Optics''', Synthetic eyes replacing the original green. Deep brown. Hyper-precise visual input. Perfect vision in complete darkness with no adjustment period. Instantaneous light adaptation.

'''Steel and Carbon Fiber Skeleton''', Full skeletal replacement. High-density. Explains the extreme weight relative to the body's visual delicacy, and the strength that significantly exceeds what the frame appears capable of. Olivia does not yet fully know the extent of this.

'''Augmented Hearing''', Activates at high alert or focused attention. Can hear through floors and walls, detect movement patterns at distance with precision far beyond any organic capability. First demonstrated October 17th when she detected Rector's operatives on the renovation floor below the penthouse before any sound was audible to Gwen.

'''Kintsugi Spine''', Surgical seam running the full length of the spine, sealed with gold filament. The site of the original destruction — the Void Strike shattered his spine — made gold. Gwen's deliberate aesthetic choice.

'''Stimulant Points''', Installed without Olivia's knowledge or consent during the bio-sculpt at Gwen's specific instruction. Hidden pressure points located behind the ear and along the neck and hairline. Contact or pressure produces cascading warmth and overstimulation. Only Gwen knows their location and effect. Olivia experiences the sensation and has no framework for why it happens.

'''OS Neural Shard''', A custom engineered neural shard produced by Dynalar Technologies, Night City's established cyberware manufacturer. Commissioned as a bespoke development outside their standard product line — the specific capability it carries does not exist in any commercial Dynalar catalogue. Installed at the base of the skull, it passively records high-intensity neural events in a continuous loop, functioning similarly to a dashcam for the mind. The commission represents a significant financial and developmental investment. Olivia is unaware of its presence and function. Its existence and what it has recorded are known only to Gwen.

== Notes ==

Gwen Ciceronis is a principal character in ''The Architekton'', a roleplay novel set across two timelines simultaneously: 48 BCE Alexandria and 2072 Night City.

Born into inherited wealth old enough to predate most of Night City's institutional memory, Gwen is an anomaly in 2072, a woman of considerable means and sharper-than-average operational intelligence who has spent twelve years obsessively studying a history the rest of her world largely forgot. She collects antiquities. She reads dead languages by fragment. She knows the shape of civilizations that most people in Night City couldn't place on a map that no longer exists.

On the 7th of October, 2072, she rounded a corner in Pacifica and found something her twelve years of obsession had not prepared her for.

== Biography ==

Gwen Ciceronis was born in 2048 in Night City, the only child of a family whose wealth was old enough to have survived the Datakrash, the corporate wars, and every restructuring of Night City's power landscape in between. The kind of money that does not need to announce itself because it has never once needed to. Her last name, Ciceronis, has been carried through her family line for longer than anyone in her immediate circle has thought to ask about. She carries it without knowing its full significance.

Her parents managed the family's holdings before her. She began managing them herself earlier than most would consider appropriate and has not looked back. Her operation is not a megacorp, not yet, not in 2072, but it is deliberate, growing, and structured with the patience of someone who thinks in decades rather than quarters.

What sets her apart in Night City's landscape is not the money. It is the twelve years of privately sustained obsession with ancient Roman and Greek antiquity, a period most of 2072 treats as irrelevant noise between the present and whatever came immediately before it. She learned fragments of dead Latin from texts that survived the Datakrash by accident. She acquired antiquities through channels that required both money and discretion. She built a private collection in a penthouse that most people in her world would find eccentric at best.

She installed a Koine Greek neural shard built from another person's neural pathways into her own skull.

She was not eccentric. She was preparing for something she didn't have a name for yet.

== Relationships ==

'''Olivia Alexandra'''

The person Gwen rebuilt from nothing and named. Their relationship is the central axis of her life in 2072 in a way she did not plan for and has not moved to examine too closely. She calls her impossible. She means it as the highest possible thing.

'''Sera'''

Gwen's most trusted operative and the closest thing she has to a long-standing personal loyalty in Night City. Sera has rooftop access to the penthouse. She has been with Gwen long enough that the building reads her presence before she reaches the keypad. What exists between them beyond the professional has never been named directly by either of them. Night City does not tend to reward that kind of deferral.

'''Cleopatra VII'''

A name that reached her through unlikely means. A woman she has since been almost entirely unable to find in any database the Datakrash left intact. She knows the shape of her. She knows she is not passive.

== Operations & Wealth ==

Gwen's wealth is inherited and old, the kind that has compounded quietly across generations without requiring the visibility that newer Night City money tends to demand. She manages a small private operation: investments, carefully selected interests, the kind of influence that moves through intermediaries rather than press releases.

She carries two phones. The distinction between them matters.

Her penthouse in Aldecaldos Tower is the operational center of her private life, access by rooftop AV only, no lobby entry, biometric systems that read her presence before she reaches them. She does not bring people there. She brought Olivia there.

Avago Inc. exists in her mind as something forming. The capital is hers. The genius, she has decided, is someone else's entirely.

== Augmentations ==

'''Gold Cyberware Seams''' Two pure gold seams tracing horizontally from just under the eyes across the high cheekbones. Flush against the skin, not raised, not decorative in the conventional sense. The specific cyberware of someone whose family has had money long enough to make even modification a statement of restraint.

'''Personal Link''' Port in the palm of the left hand. Standard interface for BD recordings and neural data.

'''Dynalar OS Neural Shard, Koine Greek Language''' A custom Dynalar commission built from a specific individual's neural pathways rather than a standardized language database. The Koine it carries is not generic, it contains the register, vocabulary, idioms, and speech patterns of its source. A significant investment in both development and intent.

He grew up predominantly in his mother's world, Koine-speaking, Greek in its rhythms and its references, the language of civilization as far as he was concerned and everything else noise. He educated himself the way certain minds do when they are given access to enough material and left largely alone with it, architecture, engineering, mechanics, writing, the structural logic of how things are built and why they fail. He arrived at the codex book format independently, binding pages rather than rolling scrolls, and considered it a private solution to a practical problem until he encountered another one on a shelf in Night City two thousand years later and understood for the first time that he was not the only fool who had thought of it.

By his early twenties he was in Alexandria, in Cleopatra's world, his hands already carrying the specific competence of someone who has been solving structural problems since before they understood what solving them would become. The title Architekton, Architect, was not given to him romantically. It was a conclusion reached methodically by a woman who notices everything, over the course of a journey on a road in the desert, through the observation of drawings and site assessments and the specific way his mind organized itself in difficult rooms. She decided it before she had the authority to make it real and simply waited to be home before she said it aloud.

He was also Mechanikos, Engineer, which in his hands meant the design of military installations, forge systems, defensive structures, and weapons. It was in this capacity that he was defending the Royal Forge during the War of Alexandria when Magas deployed the Shard of Duat and the world ended for him.

== The Ascalon Promise ==
Cleopatra VII was twenty-one years old and exiled from her own throne when she walked the road to Ascalon. She traveled as a merchant's wife, no royal markers, a small group around her, Charmion, Iras, servants, mercenaries from Pelusium who barely respected her because gold was the only authority on that road. Brutal. Unglamorous. Real.

Olivier followed her because he wanted to. No other reason.

He cooked for her. Cleaned her clothes. Tended to her when bad water made her violently ill, held her hair, rubbed her back, kept her warm, stroked her hair until sleep took her. Things Charmion and Iras would have done, but he preferred them occupied elsewhere. He did it because it is simply what you do for someone you love.

When fever took him weeks later she returned it entirely. In her tent. In private. Her hand in his hair while he slept, her guards dismissed, the girl from the desert fully present in a way the Queen of Egypt was not permitted to be anywhere else.

They survived freezing nights under rough wool blankets, learning the rhythm of each other's breathing. They survived assassins sent by Arsinoe, he tasted her food and slept lightly with a dagger. She only slept soundly because his eyes were open.

On a night somewhere on that road, camp quiet around them, she opened in Latin, ''Tu non es quod videris.'' You are not what you appear to be. He answered without flinching. She pressed further. He stood and sat behind her, his arms around her, her back against his chest, her hand in his. His chin on her shoulder. And he told her, switching mid-sentence from the wolf's language into his mother's and hers:

''Good. Because I do what wolves can't. I do what it takes to protect my gazelle from wolves.''

A small kiss placed slowly on her cheek. She turned her hand over in his. Stopped being tended to. Held on.

''Keep me safe then,'' she said.

''I am. Since we left, now, and beyond death. Always.''

She pressed back against him. Barely perceptibly. And they stayed there.

This is the night she knew. Not in Alexandria with her throne restored and her court watching. Here, on the road, stripped of everything. She filed it the way she files everything that matters, precisely, without flinching, and said nothing.

The Ascalon Promise was whispered later, in the dark, when the shape of what they were to each other had no more need of indirection. He promised to always see the vulnerable girl in the tent. She promised she would never have to wear the Pharaoh mask with him. He promised her a future, children, fierce love, never leaving her side.

He called her δορκάς, Gazelle. She called him Ἀρχιτέκτων, Architekton. He was her equal. The one person the hierarchy dissolved around. Her obsession the logical conclusion of a woman who had never been safe, suddenly finding one person who made her safe without wanting anything in return.

Eighteen days after the Void Strike, she said into a dark corner of her bedchambers: ''I am not passive.'' She has not stopped meaning it since.

== Transition ==
On the 7th of October, 2072, Olivier Alexander materialized in a Pacifica Combat Zone alleyway with a shattered spine, severe burns, and no framework for what Night City was. His mind, steeped in the Egyptian Underworld as the only available mythology for what was happening to him, interpreted the acid rain and neon as Duat. He dragged himself out of an industrial trash compactor and collapsed in the street whispering a name into the rain.

Gwen Ciceronis found him. She did not leave.

What followed was ten days in a private medical facility — communication cobbled together through broken approximations of a language her translation module could not identify, a body too damaged to move, and a woman who stayed every night in the chair beside the bed for reasons she could not yet articulate. When she offered him a solution, a new body, already chosen, the surgery already arranged, he had one condition. She kept it.

He woke on the 15th of October in a body that was female, with synthetic eyes and a spine sealed in gold filament where the damage had been. She was in the chair. She had been there the whole time. She spoke to him in his own language, harvested from his mind without his knowledge and installed in herself, and gave him a name.
Olivia Alexandra.

She is currently in Gwen's penthouse, Aldecaldos Tower, Night City, seventy-two hours into a world she has no map for and learning it the only way she knows how, by looking at everything until it makes sense.

== PLACEHOLDER ==

'''Cleopatra VII'''

Queen of Egypt. The bond between them was not built in a palace, it was built on a desert road, in fever and cold and hunger, over a month of exile that stripped every pretense from both of them. He followed her to Ascalon because he wanted to. No other reason. What grew from that road became the central fact of his life, the promise he carried into the forge and would have carried beyond it.

He calls her δορκάς, Gazelle. A name given in the dark on a road where she was neither queen nor pharaoh, just the woman he was keeping safe from wolves. She has never asked him to stop.

She is not passive about his absence.

'''Gwen Ciceronis'''

The woman who found him in the rain and chose not to leave. She rebuilt him from nothing, stayed every night in the chair beside the medical bed, and learned his language to speak to him in it. Their relationship has grown into something neither of them has fully named, built incrementally out of small certain gestures — broken bread offered and received, a coat placed over broken shoulders, a hand held through the dark.

He calls her φιλτάτη. Dearest.

== Augmentations ==
All augmentations are the result of Gwen's bio-sculpt commission, October 2072. Olivier had no cybernetics prior to arrival.

'''Kiroshi Optics''', Synthetic eyes replacing the original green. Deep brown. Hyper-precise visual input. Perfect vision in complete darkness with no adjustment period. Instantaneous light adaptation.

'''Steel and Carbon Fiber Skeleton''', Full skeletal replacement. High-density. Explains the extreme weight relative to the body's visual delicacy, and the strength that significantly exceeds what the frame appears capable of. Olivia does not yet fully know the extent of this.

'''Augmented Hearing''', Activates at high alert or focused attention. Can hear through floors and walls, detect movement patterns at distance with precision far beyond any organic capability. First demonstrated October 17th when she detected Rector's operatives on the renovation floor below the penthouse before any sound was audible to Gwen.

'''Kintsugi Spine''', Surgical seam running the full length of the spine, sealed with gold filament. The site of the original destruction — the Void Strike shattered his spine — made gold. Gwen's deliberate aesthetic choice.

'''Stimulant Points''', Installed without Olivia's knowledge or consent during the bio-sculpt at Gwen's specific instruction. Hidden pressure points located behind the ear and along the neck and hairline. Contact or pressure produces cascading warmth and overstimulation. Only Gwen knows their location and effect. Olivia experiences the sensation and has no framework for why it happens.

'''OS Neural Shard''', A custom engineered neural shard produced by Dynalar Technologies, Night City's established cyberware manufacturer. Commissioned as a bespoke development outside their standard product line — the specific capability it carries does not exist in any commercial Dynalar catalogue. Installed at the base of the skull, it passively records high-intensity neural events in a continuous loop, functioning similarly to a dashcam for the mind. The commission represents a significant financial and developmental investment. Olivia is unaware of its presence and function. Its existence and what it has recorded are known only to Gwen.

Gwendolyn Palerose (Cyberpunk)

2025-04-05T00:44:26Z

Admin:

{{InfoboxPerson|name=Gwendolyn Palerose|image=[[File:Gwen1.png|400px]] |image_caption=Gwendolyn Palerose in her apartment|age=29|birth_date=10 ADP (Azeroth Calendar), arrived 2073 (Cyberpunk Calendar)|race=Human|class=Security Consultant (formerly Blood Mage)|faction=Independent|status=Active|occupation=Security Consultant|location=Currently in Night City}}

== Calendar Note ==
The Azeroth Calendar uses the After Dark Portal (ADP) system, where Year 0 marks the Dark Portal’s opening, and year 20 ADP aligns with the Culling of Stratholme during the Third War. The present Azeroth day is roughly year 40 ADP (circa 2049-2057 in real-world terms, adjusted to 2077 for Cyberpunk’s timeline via Warpweaver magic). Gwendolyn, born in year 10 ADP (a year and a half before Ellienore), was a child before the Culling. She arrived in 2073, 4 years before 2077, mirroring Ellienore’s timeline.

== Biography ==
Gwendolyn Palerose, a 29 year-old woman with a steely resolve, was unwillingly ripped from Azeroth into the Cyberpunk 2077 universe by the same Warpweaver who banished Ellienore Bradley. Born in year 10 ADP in a noble district of Stratholme, Azeroth (circa 2047), she was raised by her parents, Lord Cedric Palerose, a knight, and Lady Marianne Palerose, a mage of the Kirin Tor. Her early training in arcane arts hinted at her potential, but her life changed when the Warpweaver sent her to Texas in 2073, at age 25 and a half, four days after Ellienore’s exile to Maine. For more on her Azeroth roots, see [[Ellienore Bradley (Azeroth)]] for shared context.

Gwendolyn’s Cyberpunk persona reflects her adaptation: short, jet-black hair with crimson streaks, piercing brown eyes enhanced by optic implants, and a lean frame clad in a tactical trench coat adorned with security patches. One of her arm bears a full sleeve tattoo, earned through her trials.

== Warpweaver Transition ==
Gwendolyn’s arrival in Texas was a jarring plunge into a lawless frontier. Unwillingly warped by the Warpweaver, she landed in the arid wastes near Austin, her mage robes in tatters and her bow lost. The first six months were a relentless survival ordeal—scavenging from deserted caravans, fending off Scavenger gang raids, and enduring heatstroke that nearly broke her. A chance alliance with Mara Chen, a drifter with a cybernetic arm, provided shelter and taught her the basics of Cyberpunk tech. In late 2073, desperation led her to rob a derelict Trauma Team outpost, hacking a security drone to steal credits for implant-compatibility surgeries by early 2074—a necessity to thrive in this world.

== Rise as a Security Consultant ==
With implants, Gwendolyn’s strategic mind flourished. By mid-2074, she leveraged her arcane instincts to master security consulting, designing firewalls for small-time fixers in Texas. Her reputation soared in 2075 when she thwarted a MaxTac raid on a nomad caravan, earning the nickname “Iron Veil” for her unbreachable defenses. This drew envy from Viktor Stahl, a rival consultant who sabotaged her early contracts. Isolated and unable to find clues about Ellienore, Gwendolyn’s hope waned, her search efforts stalling amid Texas’s chaos. She honed her skills, securing gigs with Arasaka outposts by 2076, building a modest fortune.

== Reunion Pursuit ==
In early 2077, a turning point came during a news broadcast. Gwendolyn, monitoring a holo-screen in an Austin safehouse, saw Ellienore—now the CEO of Apothecary Inc.—at a press conference unveiling Neon Nexus. The red scarf and familiar poise reignited her resolve. She tracked Ellienore to Night City, arriving in late 2077 after a perilous journey. Navigating corporate blockades and a brush with the 6th Street gang, she reached the city’s edge, now plotting to breach Apothecary’s security as a high-profile figure. Her plan involves infiltrating a gala hosted by Militech, leveraging her consulting creds to reconnect.

== Roleplay History ==

* Arrived in Texas, 2073, unwillingly via Warpweaver magic, entering survival mode.
* Stole credits from a Trauma Team outpost in 2073, funding implant surgeries by 2074.
* Became “Iron Veil” in 2075, thwarting a MaxTac raid and clashing with Viktor Stahl.
* Secured Arasaka contracts in 2076, building her reputation.
* Spotted Ellienore on a 2077 press conference, tracked her to Night City.
* Arrived in Night City, late 2077, plotting reunion at a Militech gala.

== Personal Details ==
Gwendolyn’s optic implants and tattoos complement her tactical gear. Her resilience drives her pursuit of Ellienore, her only tie to Azeroth and lover, though she adapts to Cyberpunk’s demands.

== Trivia ==

* Favorite tool: Holo-shield projector for defense.
* Companions: Mara Chen (former ally) and her lingering hope for Ellienore.
* Signature style: Tactical elegance with a cybernetic edge.
