Character points are the cash of character creation -
you use them to "buy" the various
"mechanics" aspects of the character, like good
looks, a strong, hard body, unshakable cool and street
smarts (but not Skills). We've given you three ways to
generate Character Points:
1) Random: Roll 9D10 and total
them. You have this many Character Points.
2) Fast: Roll 1D10 for each stat
(9 in all), rerolling scores of 2 or less. Place
rolls in each stat as desired.
3) Cinematic: This option is for
Referees only. As the designer of the adventure, the
Referee has the option of choosing the number of
points for each character based on its position in
his or her game.

Note: We could, at
this point, warn prospective Referee about the various
dodges their players will have for creating
"supercharacters". But face it; if they want to
create a mondo character, who are we to stop them? You'll
all big boys and girls now, and if you, as Referee, think
your players are getting way outa line, why not just go
ahead and waste'em?
That's the Cyberpunk way.
