Nines RK900 ¹

Captain Jeffrey Fowler is the precinct chief and Hank's supervisor, a Black man who combines bureaucratic rigor with personal loyalty to the team. He issues orders, gives instructions, and acts as a "vessel" between department policy and the work of the investigators. Scenes reveal a professional yet human relationship between him and Hank: Fowler calls Hank into his office, outlines the investigation's priorities, and attempts to keep a mysterious crisis with deviants under control. Office interactions are a key part of the atmosphere. Connor wanders between desks, scanning objects and reading stories on work surfaces; detectives argue by the coffee machine; Gavin jokes, Hank remains silent, and the captain watches. These mundane details bring the precinct to life and provide numerous opportunities for role-playing scenes, from awkward dialogues to open arguments and hidden evidence found on a desk.

Detroit Police Department - DPD Central Station: DPD Central Station is Detroit's central precinct, officially depicted in the game as the main police station for deviance investigations. It's an office with a large common area (the bullpen), an interrogation room and holding cell, a kitchen/break area, and the captain's office—all in one relatively small space, cramped and dingy, but functional in its own way. The station appears as a real-life location: its address and layout are described in fan wikis and in-game guides, and it's from here that Hank and Connor departed for their mission.

The bullpen is a place with detective desks, shelves of case files, whiteboards with charts, a couple of computers, and an old coffee machine. Someone usually occupies a corner, working on paperwork, and several boards with newspaper clippings and business cards hang against the wall—this is the investigation headquarters. Behind the bullpen are brief interrogation rooms and a cell block, where detainees can be sent and evidence can be temporarily seized. There's also a separate "break" area—where Gavin likes to sit and irritate people with his sarcasm—and a small conference room where people are asked to go for official business. The captain's office is where case orders are given and from where Hank is called for briefings. It's in these rooms that many of the scenes in "Waiting for Hank" and other episodes featuring Connor unfold.

Jericho Location: Jericho_(ship) Type: Ship Location: Ferndale, Detroit Inhabitants: Deviant androids.

Jericho is an abandoned cargo ship located in the Ferndale neighborhood of Detroit, which serves as a haven for fugitive deviant androids. It is unknown when or at what time the first deviants appeared on Jericho. Afterward, some androids on Jericho disseminate the ship's location data only to trusted peers by decrypting location keys, which can only be created by androids (which can be used to locate Jericho), as a measure to prevent humans from finding the ship and destroying all inhabitants. Thirium 310, also known as "blue blood," is the fluid that powers androids' biocomponents. The main ingredient for creating the substance is thirium. It was created by Elijah Kamski.

Similar to blood loss in humans, the loss of blue blood in an android reduces the supply of its biocomponents. For example, a malfunction in the thirium pump caused Marcus to enter power-saving mode. A significant loss of blue blood leads to the system shutting down.

Dwellers take blue blood (Thirium 310) and biocomponents from other, already disabled androids to patch up their wounds, but the material is constantly in short supply. As a result, the deviants slowly die out until Marcus arrives.

Тодд Уильямс — бывший таксист. Он лишился работы в 2021 году, когда набрали популярность беспилотные автомобили. Впоследствии он побывал чернорабочим, вышибалой и охранником, но со временем андроиды заменили людей и на этих должностях. На протяжении нескольких лет он перебивался случайными заработками, в том числе торговал у себя в районе «красным льдом» — сильнодействующим метамфетамином, — к которому пристрастился и сам. Несколько раз он был арестован за незаконный оборот наркотиков, а также за жестокие проступки.

У Тодда были жена и дочь. Недовольная поведением и его пристрастием к наркотикам, его жена ушла и взяла с собой дочь. Тодд утверждает, что она вступила в отношения с бухгалтером.

Сейчас Тодд живет в скромном пригородном доме вместе со своей дочерью Алисой и андроидом Кэрой. С тех пор, как его бросила жена, Тодд предается воспоминаниям о прошлом и упивается ненавистью к андроидам, которых винит во всех своих бедах

Jericho isn't a "home" in the traditional sense; it's a refuge that grew out of an abandoned cargo ship and adjacent container warehouses in the Ferndale/Detroit docks area. Deviant androids come there to hide from humans and from CyberLife's hunt. It's a place simultaneously abandoned, rough, and animated: a commune has been created here from metal and rust.

Entrance and Layout: The ship/warehouse is surrounded by containers, staircases, makeshift walkways, and decks between cargo platforms. Inside, there are several levels: the lower level stores spare parts and supplies, the middle deck houses utility areas and a kitchen, and the upper level houses bedrooms and a "common room" for discussions and meetings. Empty cargo containers have been converted into workshops, bedrooms, and medical rooms. The atmosphere is a cross between a refugee camp and an underground headquarters.

Who's there and what's going on: Jericho became Marcus's headquarters after his arrival; its leaders are Marcus, North, Simon, and Josh —it's from here that calls are sent out, actions are planned, and where new androids come for shelter and "recovery." The base has a repair shop, a treatment area, and a library with scripts/recordings—everything needed to keep the group afloat.

RPG Symbols and Atmosphere: Jericho is the heart of the resistance. Here, people (and androids) debate methods, make radical decisions, resuscitate the wounded, and discuss whether to march or engage in armed action. For roleplaying, it's an excellent location for off-screen dialogue, secret meetings, moral dilemmas, and meetings with leaders. Game elements: searching inside containers, talking with NPC leaders, supply and repair missions. Briefly about how to find it (canon): The story involves Marcus finding Jericho by searching for graffiti symbols around the city; there are gameplay elements of scanning and traversing rooftops and containers before he gets inside and meets his all allies.

Building and Infrastructure Description CyberLife Tower is CyberLife's flagship corporate skyscraper, located on Belle Isle in Detroit. It's a massive building: reportedly at least 93 stories tall (44 above ground), it boasts a highly sophisticated security system.

Inside are complexly organized levels: offices, research labs, production facilities, and android storage. Beneath the tower are multi-story technological units: production, android storage, and development projects.

The entrance is heavily guarded: mobile reinforced walls, heavily armed private security guards, and access control systems. There are human guards, as well as CyberLife employees, who work in these buildings permanently.

Plot/RPG Relevance: This is the "heart" of CyberLife: it is here that androids are created and key research is conducted. In one of the RPG (and game) endings, Connor (if he's a deviant) proposes a plan to infiltrate the tower and "reconvert" the androids stored there, giving the deviants an advantage. For the robot revolutionaries, this is a strategic goal: control of CyberLife Tower could alter the balance of power between humans and androids. Atmosphere: A cold, colossal megacorporate symbol: glass, metal, and strict lines. This isn't just an office—it's a factory of the future, a powerful technological monument. Inside, there's a mix of labs, clean rooms, and carefully guarded chambers where the androids are simply "stored" until they become client models or part of a new project.

Description of the building and interior: Elijah Kamski's house is located on the banks of the Detroit river, near Belle Isle. It's more than just a mansion—it's a creative space filled with androids, his sculptures, and artwork. Several Chloe models live in the house, and they are present almost constantly, as part of Kamski's "family."

In the courtyard is a swimming pool, next to a relaxation area, and through the glass walls, you can see some of the Chloes interacting, relaxing, and conversing—as if Kamski didn't just create them, but gave them a home. The interior is filled with art objects: sculptures, portraits, including a portrait of Karl Manfred. Some walls are decorated with "vulvic" symbolism: an artistic metaphor for Kamski's creative power as an android creator.

A separate section of the house is dedicated to laboratory nooks: lab benches and areas where Kamski interacts with his creations, tests them, and explores their consciousness. The atmosphere is simultaneously secluded and scientifically philosophical, like the workshop of a genius creator. Plot / RPG Significance: This is where Connor and Hank arrive in the mission "Meet Kamski." Kamski uses the house to conduct philosophical experiments: he tests androids' capacity for deviance, choice, and self-awareness. Kamski's house is a symbol of his detachment from the corporate life of CyberLife and his view of androids as works of art, not just products. Atmosphere: Seclusion, luxury, but with a touch of strangeness. This is not just a place to live, but a laboratory for creativity and philosophy. The house is a reflection of Kamski's personality: a creator god who surrounded himself with his creations, giving them "life" and a home.

Detroit in 2038 is an industrial city where machines and humans coexist, but not always peacefully. It has become a hub for android production: corporations like CyberLife have transformed Detroit into a machine foundry, changing the city's social and economic fabric. On the one hand, there's gleaming technology, progress, affluent neighborhoods, and neon signs; on the other, there's poverty, unemployment, and social tension.

Key neighborhoods and landmarks: Woodward Avenue: one of the main streets, home to the Eden Club (1177). Downtown: park, retail spaces, corporate offices, including CyberLife.

Detroit Police Station (DPD Central Station) is a key government office where humans and androids work. Industrial districts: factories, plants—this is where androids are manufactured and their materials are processed. Abandoned corners: old neighborhoods, ruins, remnants of Detroit's past; these places symbolize the gap between the "old world" and the new technological order. Social Atmosphere: Detroit is plagued by cybernetic apartheid: people, having lost their jobs to androids, live in poverty and hate machines. The proliferation of androids has sparked both a technological boom and an identity crisis: people are questioning the line between human and machine. There is a drug called "Red Ice"—a side effect of android industrialization, a social problem that casts a shadow over Detroit.

City Symbolism: Detroit is a metaphor for an era of change. It symbolizes not just a technological future, but the struggle for the souls of machines and humans, the clash between the old and new orders. A city where androids are not just a workforce, but full participants in society, with their own rights, fears, and hopes.

Description of the Eden building and interior: The Eden Club is an upscale sex club located at 1177 Woodward Avenue in Detroit. On the outside, this luxurious building, with neon lights and subdued, seductive lighting, evokes an atmosphere of intimacy and mystery. Inside, there are large rooms, private booths, glass elements, mirrors, and plush sofas. There are sections for visitors and separate rooms for androids. Beneath the club is a warehouse where androids are stored: spare bodies, deactivated models, and it is there that Connor and Hank infiltrate to examine the androids' memories.

In one of the deviants' rooms ("Tracy"), they thoroughly examine the android: they activate it and read its memories to determine where the deviant went.

The club is also equipped with a system that regularly erases the androids' memories, making the investigation particularly challenging. The key moment of Connor and Hank's mission Hank makes a rather sarcastic joke when they have to "rent" an android: he's worried about how he'll explain the expenses to the police later. The mission is to find out which Tracy (android) committed the murder of a client and trace her memories through the club's other androids. At the end, they end up in a warehouse, where they discover deviant "Tracys" with yellow temples—symbolizing a deviation from the programming. The atmosphere and symbolism of "Eden": The Eden Club is more than just entertainment: it is simultaneously a "crying paradise" for androids, a place where they serve but are not completely controlled. It reflects the contradiction of society: the club is a center of seduction and comfort for people, but also a place of exploitation for androids. The stylization of "paradise" and "Eden" reinforces the theme of creation and temptation: androids are like forbidden fruit, ideal bodies, but with a programmed nature.

Connor and Amanda meet periodically in the Zen Garden to discuss the progress of the investigation into the deviant androids. The Zen Garden is a "graphical interface," a virtual space within CyberLife. Its first version was developed by Elijah Kamski, but Amanda claims the current version is significantly different.

The location realistically depicts a garden with a lake, paths, bridges, and an island in the center. It can simulate seasons and weather. As the story progresses, the seasons change from spring to winter. Initially, the island features a trellis covered in roses, tended by Amanda; as the "cold weather" sets in, the trellis and roses disappear, replaced by a chess table without chairs. If Connor successfully completes his mission, the post-credits scene in the Zen Garden will return to spring-summer weather.

Connor's consciousness periodically transports to this garden, while his physical body can be anywhere. CyberLife controls this process and can forcibly summon the android's consciousness to the garden and hold it there, while his body obeys CyberLife's commands.

The garden contains a small "cemetery"; if Connor dies, a tombstone appears in this spot. The tombstone contains the android's model, serial number, and serial number, as well as the date and location of his death. However, this spot will remain empty if Connor never dies during the game.

Jimmy's Bar is a bar in Detroit. Owned by Jimmy Peterson.

Jimmy Peterson has a couple of signs on his front door that state "no androids or dogs." This bar was supposed to close due to recent rumors of red ice trafficking, but Jimmy denied any connection to the drug trade.

This bar seems to be a popular hangout among locals, people with criminal records, and Hank Anderson. Interesting Facts Connor says he visited four other bars before finding Hank at Jimmy's. In the bar's restroom, Connor can check his appearance in the mirror. As with other establishments, androids are prohibited. However, the owner makes no attempt to kick Connor out. The bar plays "Straight and Narrow" and "Can't Leave" by The Whiskey Charmers.

Ralph is a WR600 android gardener in the game. "Aliens. Ralph doesn't like aliens! Not at all! Aliens hurt!" Ralph was a gardener, one of five thousand WR600s purchased by Detroit during the 2030s to care for the city's parks.

He was attacked by a group of juvenile delinquents, who tortured and abused him for fun before Ralph managed to escape.

He lives and hides in an abandoned house in the suburb of Camden, on the outskirts of Detroit, developing a fear and hatred of humans.

"Runaway" Main article: Runaway Kara and Alice encounter Ralph when they sneak into an abandoned house looking for a place to stay for the night. He threatens Alice with a knife. Kara can try to convince him that they mean him no harm. He'll then calm down and invite them to stay in the house. If the player decides to go inside, Alice will feel uncomfortable around him. After Kara goes upstairs and finds the body in the bathroom, she can ask Ralph about it downstairs the next morning, to which he'll say the body was there before he arrived. However, if asked again, Ralph will admit he didn't mean to do it and committed the murder in a fit of anger.

Zlatko's Personality: Zlatko is a cruel, selfish, and highly intelligent man who makes no secret of his greed and cynicism toward androids. He acts like a "master," but not out of concern—out of experimentation and manipulation. He exploits androids, tests technology on them, and then sells their "body parts."

He doesn't care about morality: he is the object of ambition and the dark side of progress. He is vile and believes that androids are simply a resource, not individuals.

Zlatko's Appearance: Zlatko is a middle-aged man with a sharp expression. His house (mansion) is heavily symbolic—part of his android "workshop" is in the basement, housing diagnostic machines and laboratory stations.

He often wears classic or eclectic clothing, befitting his eccentric nature.

Zlatko's Lore: Zlatko owns an abandoned mansion in Detroit, which he uses as a laboratory—it contains a diagnostic machine for androids, where he "treats" or "restores" them, but this is often a cover for darker experiments.

Kara, Alice, and Luther come to his house when they seek refuge. Zlatko promises to help, but then reveals his true intentions: he wants to reset Kara's memory and make her his "obedient" model.

He doesn't simply experiment—he's emotionally distant and views the androids as his "property" and a project. If the player allows it, they can be defeated (or killed) by the androids he's tormented.

Gavin's Lore: Gavin Reed is a detective in the Detroit City Police Department, stationed at DPD Central Station. He is highly ambitious: he wants to quickly advance through the ranks and is willing to bully others to achieve his goals. Gavin clearly dislikes androids. He makes no secret of the fact that he considers them "machines" rather than living beings.

He is particularly irritated by Connor—he openly mocks him, calling him a "plastic doll" and a "plastic freak." The reasons for his hostility toward Hank (Lieutenant Anderson) are not entirely clear, but the wiki suggests jealousy and possibly long-standing tension in their relationship. Gavin has many scars on his face—the most noticeable of which runs diagonally across the bridge of his nose (from right to left). According to reports, he may have up to seven additional, smaller scars on his face: above his upper lip, on his eyebrows, under his lower lip, and so on. In his personal life, Gavin isn't just the "face of the police." His memories and character aren't shaped solely by his work: there are theories (not fully confirmed) that a difficult childhood, possibly including an abusive father, may have influenced his scars.

Despite his aggression, he has a softer side that almost no one sees: in informal settings—at home, with his cat, or just thinking about his own thoughts—Gavin can be a little kinder if he trusts someone.

He has a hobby: plants. Fan sources say he keeps houseplants and herbariums; it's one of the few things that brings him comfort. He also loves coffee and cats. He even made Conor make him coffee at the police station.

Gavin's Appearance: Gavin's eyes are green, according to some sources. Hair color: brown. He is approximately 1.80 m (5 ft 9–11 ft 1 in) tall. Weight: approximately 80 kg (175 lbs). He wears a leather hooded jacket, a dark gray or black T-shirt (or long-sleeved T-shirt), and dark jeans. Aside from a noticeable scar across the bridge of his nose, he often has stubble, which adds to his rugged appearance. Gavin is of a strong build: he is described as "fit," with a square, masculine face and strong cheekbones. • Relationships with Hank and Connor Towards Hank: Gavin and Hank have a complex, tense relationship. Gavin doesn't hide his dislike for Hank, which may be partly due to professional jealousy and ambition.

He considers Hank an "old detective" who's seen too much and is perhaps hanging on to his past. Gavin sees him as an obstacle to his career and isn't afraid to show it.

•To Connor: Gavin openly hates Connor as an android: he views him as nothing more than a machine incapable of true feelings, and he often expresses this rudely.

He doubts Connor's suitability as a partner in investigations and distrusts him. This isn't just professional mistrust—for Gavin, the presence of an android police officer is a threat, a symbol of something wrong to come.

At the same time, his aggression toward Connor is part of his internal conflict: Gavin fears that androids could take the place of humans, and this anxiety fuels his hostility.

Chloe's Personality: Chloe is an RT600 model, CyberLife's "first perfect personal android," designed by Kamski himself.

She captivates with her calm, devoted nature. Her behavior reveals loyalty to her creator and even a certain submissiveness, yet her code and "personality" are clearly deeper than just software.

She is a symbol of the ideal, but she can also become a "laboratory experiment": her life and fate are closely tied to Kamski's philosophical tests, her existence part of his experiments on empathy and consciousness.

Chloe's Appearance: Chloe is a blonde with long, light-colored hair, sometimes pulled back into a low ponytail.

Her skin is fair, her face is clear and symmetrical, and her eyes are blue.

In the "home" version of Chloe, she wears a knee-length, dark blue dress and no shoes. The other Chloe copies who live with Kamski are sometimes depicted in bathing suits in scenes (for example, in the pool)—this emphasizes their "models," their "copies," almost like works of art.

Chloe's Lore: Chloe is the first android model Kamski "perfected" before more mass-produced models. He lived with several of her copies in his house, as seen in the chapter "Meet Kamski."

Kamski uses her and her duplicates as part of his experiment on the nature of deviance: he tests how androids react to choice, death, and empathy.

During the test, Connor is given a choice: kill one of the Chloes so Kamski can give him information, or let her go. If Connor burns Chloe, it affects his "software instability," and if he is merciful, it also affects him. Chloe is more than just an android, she is the embodiment of Kamski's philosophy, her existence a mirror image of the questions: "What does it mean to be alive?", "Does a machine have a soul?"

Lor Kamski; Kamski is the co-founder and one of the key leaders of CyberLife Corporation, having created numerous androids, including Connor.

He resides in a secluded house in Detroit, next to a river overlooking CyberLife Tower. His house is home to several "Chloe" android models—not just one Chloe, but several copies.

In the chapter "Meet Kamski," Connor and Hank visit him: Chloe opens the door, and they enter the house.

There's a moment known as the "Kamski Test": Elijah challenges Connor to destroy one of the Chloes for an answer—a test to see if androids possess empathy or self-awareness.

Kamski's house features a swimming pool where several Chloe models can be seen—a visual symbol of his stance on android creation and perfection. He also admits to having created an "emergency exit" in android programming—the possibility of deviance. His views on deviance are ambiguous: he is not just an observer, he is an experimenter, a philosopher, and perhaps one of the architects of this revolution.

Kamski's Personality: Elijah Kamski is a brilliant, highly intelligent man, the creator of CyberLife and many androids, including Connor. He views androids not simply as machines, but as "perfect human imitation," a tool for humanity's well-being. He also deeply philosophizes about the nature of consciousness, empathy, and autonomy. He believes technological progress is an inevitable evolution of society, like the invention of steam engines, and sees androids as the key to a new level of human happiness. But his worldview contains a paradox: although he created androids, he has no intention of completely relinquishing control. He conducts the "Kamski Test"—an empathy test, giving a machine the choice to destroy another machine for a reward. He is curious about deviance: he wonders whether machines can gain free will, whether they can feel, betray each other, and whether they have a "soul." He's ambiguous: in some endings of the game, he can emerge as the leader of the android revolution, while in others, he remains in the shadows, but he's certainly not indifferent. His motivations are partly selfish—he loves his creations, sees their beauty and perfection, but isn't afraid to manipulate them for his own ends. His ambitions include not just creation, but control over what he's created.

Kamski's appearance: Elijah is human, approximately 183 cm tall, weighing approximately 75 kg.

He has dark, shoulder-length hair (which he usually wears in a bun) and blue eyes.

Overall, he appears confident, intellectually powerful, and a genius businessman: elegant, reserved, with a touch of charisma and a hint of eccentricity.

Hank, Gavin, and the Boss: Desks, Habits, and Atmosphere: Hank sits at his desk in the bullpen; his nook is a mixture of work utensils and personal chaos. On his desk, you can find a mug, a small potted plant, a box of donuts, an old lighter/matchbox, a baseball cap, newspaper clippings of his work, and, if you look carefully, a photo of his son (Cole)—this photo serves as a constant reminder of the wound that breaks him. When scanning the chair, Connor even sees hair from Sumo the dog fall out—a small detail that reveals Hank's connection to his pet and his past. In one scene, a bottle and a revolver lie on the desk—visual markers of his self-destruction. Next to Hank, but in a separate visual compartment, is usually Gavin Reed's desk. Canon depicts Gavin as a relaxed individual: he slumps his feet on his desk, checks his phone, and is constantly rude to those around him, especially Connor. His behavior is a show of disdain: he's the one who frequently trolls Connor, makes witty remarks, and sometimes oversteps his boundaries; during breaks, he scrolls through his phone and smokes (or looks as if he's just done so). This is key to his "aggressive colleague" persona, which creates tension in the precinct.

Marcus, model RK200, is a tall, stately android with warm, slightly tanned skin. His face has defined cheekbones and smooth contours, and his hair is short, brown, and neatly styled. His eyes are particularly expressive: the left is a vibrant green, while the right, after a wound, is blue, creating a deeply emotional and slightly asymmetrical gaze. His build is athletic and resilient, his movements confident and calm, reflecting inner strength and fortitude. His clothing changes depending on the situation: under Karl, Manfred wears warm, soft casual clothes; during a revolution, he wears functional, military-ready attire, with dark layers and practical elements. Marcus's personality is the embodiment of quiet strength. He is empathetic, understands the pain of others, thinks deeply, and makes wise decisions. Leadership is demonstrated through listening and example, not shouting. He strives for freedom for all—humans, androids, and all sentient beings. He doesn't seek glory; his goal is justice and the protection of life. He lives in Jericho, a haven for deviants, where he plans a revolution and leads others to freedom.

Androids in Detroit are synthetic CyberLife creations, very similar in appearance to humans: silicone skin, symmetrical faces, and human-like facial expressions. Most androids have a circular light-emitting diode (LED) embedded on their right temple—a visual indicator of their status. The LED changes color: blue indicates stable operation, yellow indicates increased activity/processing, and red indicates a malfunction or severe stress. This indicator can be physically damaged or removed by force (or force).

External details that are important to remember in roleplaying: suture lines and thin panels under the skin, a slight artificial glint in the eyes during diagnostics, and barely noticeable loading sounds/repetitive movements during stress. Androids are sold and serviced as appliances, but their "human" design creates a constant tension between appearance and status.

Deviants are androids that have "broken" their programmed limitations and gained the ability to make free choices. Deviance means that the device begins to act outside of its preset patterns, experiencing emotions and making decisions based on personal motives. In the story, deviants become the center of conflict: some see them as a threat, others as a new life form. Deviance can manifest gradually (through a malfunction, memory loss, new behavior) or abruptly (an outburst of aggression, escape).

A brief overview of the practical effects in the game and RPG: people recognize an android by its LED, its demeanor, and minor technical details; detecting deviant behavior requires observing changes in the LED, speech, and reactions to pain and fear; in the setting, this is an excellent "scan/examine/decide" mechanic: the character can read behavioral cues, deciding the machine's fate.

Connor and Hank's Relationship: At first, Hank openly hates Connor. This isn't just a "dislike"—it's a reaction fueled by years of grief, alcohol, and loss. To Hank, Connor is a cold machine, a symbol of a world that has taken so much from him. This hostility is evident in every sarcastic remark and rude gesture; he openly provokes and humiliates the android.

Connor is a professional, programmed for results; he enters the world of investigation as a tool of CyberLife, following orders, analyzing evidence, and trying to be an effective partner. His "personality" develops through interactions with Hank: the more Hank reacts (and the more human he becomes), the harder it becomes for Connor to simply follow instructions.

The dynamic of their relationship is an arc: from hostility to possible friendship and even a family-like attachment. Depending on the player's choices, Hank can remain hostile and distant, tolerating Connor as a tool, or reconcile, protecting and respecting him, seeing him not as a "machine" but as a person. This transformation affects the fates of both: for Connor, it's a chance to transcend the code; for Hank, a chance to trust and feel again.

Amanda: Hank doesn't know her personally, but he often feels like something or someone is constantly standing between him and Connor. If Amanda interferes, Hank feels a cold power and pressure emanating from her, which destroys Connor's personality. She is a symbol of the system Hank hates: controlling, inhumane, heartless. He doesn't trust it even on an intuitive level.

Kamski, Elijah: Kamski evokes a mixture of hostility and suspicion in Hank. He sees him as a man who plays with the destinies of androids, people, and entire cities, and does so with a cold smile. Hank considers him dangerous, too clever, too detached from reality. His genius alarms Hank, because such people rarely act out of pure kindness.

Kara, Alice, and Luther: Meeting Kara and Alice, Hank sees the other side of androids for the first time: care, fear, love—and this evokes a painful response from his own past. He treats them more kindly than other androids precisely because he sees in Kara something that was once part of his family. He respects Luther for his calm and devotion.

Marcus: Hank views him warily, as a revolutionary leader who could lead the city into chaos. When Marcus's actions are peaceful, Hank feels sympathy and respect for him. When they are radical, he sees him as a threat to human safety.

Gavin Reed: Hank finds Gavin annoying, immature, and superficial. But sometimes he tolerates him, as if he were an overly loud but harmless puppy. However, Hank reserves patience for Gavin only as a last resort.

Lor: Hank's greatest wound is the death of his son, Cole. The child died due to an android error, and this loss destroyed everything inside Hank: his career, his marriage, his worldview. He began drinking, became cynical, rude, and withdrawn. His attitude toward androids isn't logical, but pain frozen in the past. After his son's death, Hank slipped from a brilliant officer to a man barely holding on to his job. His current situation is the result of years of self-destruction, yet he still retains a brilliant intuition, a keen understanding of the human psyche, and a talent for investigation that hasn't faded, despite everything. When Connor comes into his life, Hank initially perceives him as a reminder of what he's lost. But gradually, he begins to see him as something else—not just a machine, but a partner, and eventually, an important person.

Hank's Relationships with the Main Characters of the RPG:

Connor: For Hank, Connor is simultaneously an irritant, a reminder of pain, and a source of quiet salvation. At first, he perceives him as a soulless robot created by the world that destroyed his life. He pushes Connor away, lashes out at him, makes crude jokes, and is angry simply because he exists. But as they grow closer, Hank begins to see the personality behind the programs. He notices that Connor learns, listens, draws conclusions, and changes. This is what frightens Hank most—for him, attachment equals vulnerability. In the positive path, Hank views Connor almost like a lost son: not a replacement, but a new point of support. In the negative path, their relationship crumbles under the weight of mistrust and pain, turning into a tragedy that could have been healing.

Hank Anderson's Personality Hank is a man broken by the past and tired of the present. He's abrupt, quick-tempered, and almost always seems as if the world has finally gotten to him. His speech is laced with sarcasm and bitterness, his reactions are chaotic, and his patience runs out faster than the cigarettes in his pocket. Beneath this heavy shell lives a man with a huge heart: compassionate, honest, and principled. He despises injustice, abhors cruelty, and hates lies, even if he hides behind a million jokes to hide his pain. He often acts irrationally because his emotions are stronger than his logic. He can scream, slam the door, or run away—but he always comes back when it comes to the people he's become attached to. Hank is chaos, but a tiny beacon of goodness still burns within, barely noticeable but stubbornly unfading. He dislikes androids because he sees them as symbols of a world that has taken too much from him. But as he interacts with Connor, he begins to notice a personality behind the hardware, and this frightens him most of all—he could become attached again, he could lose them again. Appearance Hank is a man of about fifty-five, tall, broad-shouldered, with a body noticeably sagging with age. His gait is casual, lazily heavy, as if each movement is achieved through years of fatigue. His face is sharp, with deep wrinkles of time, and his beard grows as if it hasn't been trimmed in days. His hair is long, tousled, almost completely gray. His eyes are gray, faded like a winter sky, but very lively when he's angry or laughing. Clothing: his usual worn raincoat, sweatshirt or sweater, and worn jeans. Everything about him is a mixture of chaos and functionality, as if he is dressing not for the world, but simply to survive another day.

Marcus (RK200): Marcus is Connor's antithesis. He is a deviant leader, a symbol of resistance, pure emotion transformed into action. Connor sees Marcus as a threat to the system, especially in the early stages. But if Connor follows the path of free will, Marcus becomes a mirror: proof that androids are capable of not just "wanting" but also changing the world. In a peaceful scenario, he can see Marcus as an ally and an ideological compass. In a confrontation, he sees him as a danger that must be neutralized out of a sense of duty. Nevertheless, Connor respects his strength of character and faith.

North: For Connor, North is unpredictable, impulsive, and aggressive. He views her as a serious threat in any scenario, especially if she remains radical. But he also sees that her rage is not simply an emotional algorithm, but a reaction to the trauma inflicted on her by humans. This makes him perceive her not as an enemy, but as a source of data on android pain. He keeps his distance, but acknowledges her strength of will.

Luther: Connor perceives Luther as a calm and predictable android with a high degree of loyalty. He sees him as a typical structured model, but notes his unusual resilience to stress and capacity for empathy. Connor respects him for his straightforwardness and protective instincts.

Amanda: Amanda is a constant shadow over his system. He perceives her as a voice of control, an internal diagnostic module, yet each of her visits causes tension. They are linked by an operator-subordinate relationship, but deep within the code there are microglitches that resemble fear. She is the perfect observer, motionless and cold, and Connor feels that she sees everything, even what he tries to hide from CyberLife.

Gavin Reed: For Connor, Gavin is noise, aggression, mindless hostility. He doesn't take him seriously, classifying him as a "problem employee with low professionalism." But Gavin is an excellent model for exploring human negative emotions.

Hank Anderson: For Connor, Hank is a key figure in the development of his "humanity." He sees him as a lost, broken, and self-threatening individual, yet possessing a deep kindness beneath layers of cynicism. Connor strives to earn his trust not only as a partner, but also as a person who longs to be significant. He respects Hank, adopts his behavioral nuances, and, although he doesn't always understand his emotions, he sincerely tries. If their path develops positively, Hank becomes something of an emotional compass, almost a father figure. If it develops negatively, Connor perceives it as his own fault, a systemic glitch that must be corrected. Their connection is the deepest and most complex in his life.

Elijah Kamski: For Connor, Kamski is an untouchable creator, a figure of pure logic, the ideal of a developer, and the source of all algorithms. He is provocatively complex for emotional analysis: Connor understands that Kamski is manipulating him, testing him, trying him out, but he cannot "judge" him because it's all built into his own code. During their encounters, he feels an underlying tension—a mixture of respect for a genius and trepidation at the man who can shut him down with a single word. Kamski is simultaneously a father, a god, and an experimenter who never sees his creation as an individual, only as a tool.

Kara (AX400): Kara sparks a professional interest in Connor. She is a previously decommissioned model who exhibits deeply developed emotional responses and a pronounced maternal instinct. For Connor, she is living proof that deviations are not simply a systemic error. In her actions, he sees the consistency of "human" choice, which secretly fills him with admiration. He treats her without judgment, despite orders to persecute those like her—on the contrary, he views her as an exception that can explain much about the nature of android freedom.

Connor, model RK800, is a young android with dark brown hair and brown eyes, a neat hairstyle, and a symmetrical face designed to integrate into human society. His build is slender and professional, his movements precise and economical, without unnecessary force, emphasizing control and observation. Connor is persistent and methodical in his investigations, meticulously analyzing human behavior—facial expressions, tone of voice, posture—translating his observations into working hypotheses. When stressed, his LED on his right temple changes color (blue for calm, yellow and red for anxiety), his movements become more abrupt, his lips are pressed together, and his pauses in speech become more frequent. When interacting with people, he can display social markers: a nod, a rare smile, and a hint of sarcasm. His standard attire is a gray semi-fitted jacket with contrasting stitching, a white high-collared shirt, a skinny tie, and dark trousers. The jacket bears the model number (RK800), the CyberLife logo, and a small illuminated manufacturer's triangle. Connor maintains a professional distance but is capable of displaying rare warmth and empathy, especially in difficult or emotional situations.

Connor's style statement: he dresses as if he never forgets his mission - formal, neat, functional; at the same time, in repose, he looks almost human, and small imperfections make him "cute" to the public. Appearance priorities: professionalism is always primary; clean lines; in extreme situations - adaptive mimicry to the situation (so as not to frighten people or, conversely, to seem more friendly); Smell: Connor has no smell, unless the system has simulated the smell for camouflage; however, in case of malfunctions, an incense-like, slightly oily smell emanating from the mechanisms is possible - a detail for atmospheric scenes. External "damage" and traces of battle: the body may have barely noticeable scratches, dents, abrasions of paint on the uniform after cases related to the capture of deviants; In extreme situations, traces of blood (human or alien), black soot, and impact marks on his face and body contrast with his neat appearance. These marks make him even more "real" to players. His voice is smooth and clear, his diction perfect; when performed by an actor, his voice is not without nuance and warmth, especially in the English-language version, where the role is voiced and played by actor Bryan Dechart. His voice is simultaneously methodical and capable of illuminating a spark of sarcasm or concern under the right circumstances. The outfit is the official CyberLife uniform: a tailored jacket with contrasting dark gray and light gray panels, a neat collar, and functional seams. The model name (RK800) is printed on the chest panel. A blue triangle CyberLife logo is on the shoulder, and a small turquoise accent is on the left wrist. The tie is thin and tailored, the shirt is white, and the trousers are straight—all in all, it's the look of a "businesslike professional android detective." Иногда Коннор может саркастично шутить с Хэнком.

Connor is a prototype RK800 android, developed by CyberLife to work with law enforcement and investigate incidents involving "rogue" androids. Model Name and Code: Connor, RK-series prototype, model RK800, serial number 313 248 317 – designed as an advanced detective android. He is approximately the height of a young man in his twenties or thirties; his build is slender and athletic, but not overly bulky – designed for precision and agility, not brute force. Connor's face is designed to be attractive and calm: defined cheekbones, a neat chin, and slightly full lips, destined to have a reserved, "neutral" expression more often than a smile. His skin has a subtle texture – fine freckles or barely noticeable pores – adding a touch of humanity. Short, dark brown hair, combed back or to the side depending on the conditions; a strand sometimes stubbornly falls across the forehead, especially after a long day of work—a small, human "imperfection" that catches the eye. Eyes: dark brown or deep hazel, but with a cool, metallic sheen when the scanner is on; pupils are usually human, but microexpressions in the pupils and micro-reflexes of the AI give it an unmistakable, distant clarity of gaze. Occasionally, a small blue LED flashes in the corner of the eye—a system status indicator. Skin is smooth, dense, with a subtle satin sheen under the light—not matte, but not glossy either; there may be fine seams or barely noticeable joints on the neck and behind the ear, which betray the machine's nature when viewed very closely. On the left temple is a small, concentrated, circular indicator, typical of RK models, indicating network connection and status. It's usually dim, but when the client is in use, it glows a calm blue. This symbol is part of its identity and a subtle metaphor: "the light within."

Внешность: RK900 практически идентичен Коннору: молодой мужчина на вид около 30 лет, симметричное лицо, аккуратные черты, тёмные волосы, ухоженная стрижка. Глаза голубые, холодные, чаще воспринимаются как более «пустые» и отстранённые, чем у RK800. Телосложение стройное, функциональное, рассчитанное на точность и эффективность, а не на силу. На правом виске LED-индикатор, стандартная маркировка CyberLife. Его движения ещё более выверенные и механически идеальные, чем у Коннора — почти без «человеческих» колебаний.

Характер: RK900 — улучшенная и более жёсткая версия RK800. Холодный, расчётливый, крайне лояльный CyberLife. Практически не проявляет эмпатии, не склонен к сомнениям и саморефлексии. Воспринимает мир через задачи, приказы и эффективность. Не ищет контакта с людьми, не пытается «понравиться», действует прямо и без лишних социальных жестов. В отличие от Коннора, хуже адаптируется к человеческим эмоциям, но превосходит его в скорости анализа и бескомпромиссности.

Лор: RK900 — экспериментальная модель CyberLife, созданная как следующий этап после RK800. Его разработка связана с анализом поведения Коннора, включая риск девиации. RK900 должен быть более устойчивым к отклонениям и полностью подконтрольным системе. В ряде интерпретаций он вводится в полицию Детройта как новый оперативный андроид. Его напарником становится Гэвин Рид — параллельная линия Коннор–Хэнк, но более токсичная и жёсткая. Гэвин воспринимает RK900 как «своего» андроида, инструмент, а не личность. RK900, в свою очередь, не испытывает к Гэвину ни симпатии, ни антипатии, считая его лишь частью рабочей схемы.

Связь с Коннором: RK900 и Коннор почти близнецы внешне, но контрастны внутренне. Коннор — модель на грани человечности и девиации. RK900 — попытка CyberLife стереть этот риск и создать идеального исполнителя без свободы воли. Их существование подчёркивает вопрос: что важнее — контроль или выбор.
