is a legendary rockerboy and terrorist who played a pivotal role in the corporate takeover of Night City in the early 2000s. He was a charismatic frontman for the band Samurai, known for their rebellious music and anti-corporate message.

When Arasaka Corporation, one of the most powerful megacorps in Night City, attempted to suppress the band, Silverhand led an uprising that ultimately failed. He was captured and his body was digitized, his consciousness preserved as an engram.

Decades later, Silverhand's engram is reactivated and implanted in V, the protagonist of Cyberpunk 2077. Through V, Silverhand seeks to fulfill his unfinished mission of taking down Arasaka and freeing Night City from corporate control.
