In the old days before the War, they only used to shoot at cops. Now you're lucky if you just take a slug. The Street is mean these days, filled with new drugs, new gangs, and new weapons that make a Minami-10 look like a kid's toy. But even so, you're out there doing what you can to Protect and Serve. There used to be a big City Force, but most of the Old Guard in NCPD have been thrown out on their own to keep what peace they can. The ones who remain still take the Badge seriously; they work to keep people safe and make some kind of stand against chaos. Even if you'd rather just walk a beat, if you're a professional following the laws that protect chaos from sweeping in, or so you think. Even if you aren't affiliated with the NCPD, you maintain order in what you can, detectives, sub-contractors, vigilantes or even mercs with a code.
Being a Lawman in Night City isn’t about glory it’s survival with purpose. The streets are meaner than ever: synthetic chems, boosted reflexes, combat cyberware, gangs with military arms, and corps who consider entire neighborhoods "acceptable losses." But you’re still out here. Still trying to make it mean something.
