Overview
A devilishly talented musician, incorrigible rebel, celebrity, and rockerboy from Night City. People say different things about Kerry, but there's no doubt he's America's God of rock. In the old days, he played bass next to Johnny Silverhand in the cult rock band Samurai. When the two drifted apart, Eurodyne kickstarted a solo career which, in spite of its ups and downs, is still going strong. Kerry's proud of his Filipino roots, though for someone of his fame, he's especially private about his personal life. For all its numerous flaws, he's made Night City his own - his most faithful muse.

Biography
Kerry became famous by being vocals and lead/rhythm guitar for Samurai. He shared his friend's, Johnny Silverhand, view of changing the world through music, but at some point wanted to bring his own message to the people. Ever since he and superstar Johnny Silverhand parted ways, after the disbanding of Samurai, he became a solo artist. Later he was also extremely successful as a solo artist and dealt with a lot of injustice and terrible events in world affairs in his texts, which his audience - much to their concern - did not always understand correctly. He's withstood the test of time. His albums have gone platinum. His broken guitars have been auctioned for thousands of Eurodollars. And his singing voice is recognized worldwide.

2000s
Kerry Eurodyne a man of Filipino descent joined the band Samurai in 2006, with his friend and lead singer Johnny Silverhand. Kerry was known for his singing abilities and being an expert lead guitarist. One night at the Rainbow Cadenza, a wild eyed, dorph looking person approached Johnny and Kerry wanting to book their act. Naturally, Samurai thought this guy was so high on dorphs that he was talking nonsense, until he gave Johnny his card. The man was none other than Jack Masters, the head of Universal Music. Within three weeks, Samurai were signed to Universal, had a record in production and were preparing to tour every major city in the world. In 2008, after only a few years, band member Nancy was arrested after throwing her abusive boyfriend out the window witch led to internal struggle. Kerry and Johnny split up and the rest of the band soon after.

In 2013, Kerry was at the start of his solo career, eager to shout his own message. While he was touring with Silverhand, he had a deep concern for the destructive culture that dominated the world. The road trips were sobering: Fans murdered each other just to get tickets, everyone carried a gun, and the scenery from the tour bus was either a polluted corporate structure, or a colorless mother Earth plundered of her resources. Filled with determination, Kerry started writing songs again.

First there was his off-center album Modern Trenches, chronicling the tragedies and heroes of the Second Conflict. Then came Critical Mass, the tribute to the victims of the annihilation of Colorado Springs in 2008, followed by Made in America, a dedication album to the families who suffered in the Chicago bioplague of 2012. In each of them, Kerry chanted behind synthesized choruses: Time for Change.

2077
In 2077, Kerry lives in the Villa Eurodyne in North Oak maintaining a successful career of a solo artist, where, upon meeting V and learning of their fate, he gets a chance to close the doors on some old demons. This friendship may lead to potential romance (male V required) and an epiphany, or, as some call it, maturing as a person, where he regains lost inspiration and starts writing new music again.

Once related quests are finished, V may explore his villa to find various information related to his life, among which would be unfinished songs, arguments with his manager LB Kovachek, persuasion of Ariel Velasco to move in under false pretenses and emails from Louise Nordin Eurodyne, discussing the effects of expensive presents on Kerry's children, Ted and Kim.
