Dexter DeShawn

Dexter "Dex" DeShawn is a character in Cyberpunk 2077. He is a well-known fixer in Night City, but has been off the grid in recent years and only recently returned.

Overview
Dexter DeShawn made his name as a prominent fixer in Night City, one of the best known other than Rogue, but not quite on her level. He was known to select mercs for gigs based on his intuition, and did not have a regular crew. He left town for several years on what is rumored to have been a vacation, but this is implied to not be the truth. He returned in 2077 and was contracted by Evelyn Parker to steal the Relic for Yorinobu Arasaka. He hired T-Bug, Jackie Welles, and V, to handle the heist at Konpeki Plaza, but insisted on limiting their cut of the payout to a mere 30% since they were new on the scene. To prepare for the heist, DeShawn paid €$10,000 in advance to buy a stolen Militech Flathead from Maelstrom, and also shelled out for the Delamain "Excelsior Package" to cover Jackie and V's escape.

After the heist went sideways due to Yorinobu's unexpected murder of his father, Saburo Arasaka, V managed to escape and meet Dexter at the backup meeting location, the No-tell Motel. Dexter was furious that V had brought so much heat on him, and personally kills V and has their body dumped. Later, Saburo's bodyguard Takemura tracks down Dexter, believing him and V to be behind Saburo's assassination, and forces Dexter to show him V's body. When V is found to be alive, Takemura executes Dexter and takes V with him.
