Nomad (Lifepath)

Nomad is one of the three lifepaths available to players in Cyberpunk 2077.

Overview
Nomad, along with Streetkid and Corpo, is one of the lifepath choices in Cyberpunk 2077 that dictates V's background during the game.

Nomads are part of a clan, a family of sorts, that roam the Badlands deserts around Night City. They value their family above anything, but for one reason or another, V left that family behind.

During the prologue, V starts off in the Badlands. Having turned their back on their clan the Bakkers, which is now a part of the Snake Nation, they head to Night City to find work and make a new life before breaking down and seeking the help of a local mechanic, Mike.
