When he isn’t causing excessive collateral damage on missions for Arasaka what else is he doing? Does he have an office? Does he like interpretive dance? Jazz? Slow rap? Does he do recon before missions? Does he have to fill out paperwork? Does he surf the web? I have so many questions about the life of Adam

    Does he have to attend boring board meetings? Like what is he doing whenever he’s not on screen during the game? I’m burning with curiosity here

    Probably out looking for fuckable cuts of meat.

    I thought I read somewhere that Smasher and Hanako Arasaka was a thing at some point. He’s got to have some kind of game.

    IIRC, he had some kind of off work body built like Elvis.

  5. I do think he has separate bodies. So I don’t think he’s always that massive.

    Apparently he has an alternative body that looks like Elvis Presley which he gos around in getting women and what not search it up on yt I can’t remember the full thing but I remember that

    Plotting to start the Cult Mechanicus. C’mon, he ditches flesh because it’s weak: he’s Adeptus Mechanicus at heart.

    Consuming beef jerky in high quantity (no one knows how)

  10. He’s got that boat called ebunike or whatever right. Pretty sure he just hangs out on his boat and tweaks with his tech and stuff. Smasher def has 20 tech cause he’s known for using lots of different cyberware and combing parts to make better items (ba xing chong for example was probably tweaked by him and Issa rly good piece), so he probably enjoys some time with just him and his tech, since yk he’s all about that chrome lol

    Sadly, there isn’t a ton of lore on what he does in his free time. There’s a miniscule bit, though, so I’ll share that and then some fun facts.

    [According to Mike Pondsmith,](https://www.reddit.com/r/LowSodiumCyberpunk/comments/p9afhp/comment/h9ypjic/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) Adam loves Junk Food and, as such, retained his mouth and a light digestive system in order to facilitate eating it. [He’s also said](https://www.reddit.com/r/cyberpunkgame/comments/j0r2fy/comment/g70i1v0/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) that Adam liked to go out to the mall and watch anime vids with his GF-at-the-time Michiko Arasaka (Yes, he dated Saburo’s granddaughter at one point in time). However, it’s unclear whether this was simply Mike joking around or actually serious, as I really can’t tell with Mike half the time. Of further note, I’ve seen it said by staff of R. Talsorian Games (the company that makes the tabletop game) that this information isn’t canon until they put it into a book, so I don’t know if any of what I just said can be counted as canon, but I like to think it’s happened. Nevertheless, that’s the most *official* information on what Adam does in his downtime.

    As for fun facts about Adam, since I can’t help myself, let me rattle a few off:

    * Mike Pondsmith said in an interview with the Sphere Hunter [in her recent 2077 video](https://youtu.be/xmJefd5Tyic?t=2239) that Michiko dumping Smasher was the final straw in Smasher’s relation with humanity, and [said in a comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/LowSodiumCyberpunk/comments/rnl808/comment/hpuat9c/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) on reddit that afterward, he began to use less humanoid bodies.
    * He used to have a custom-made SlamDance Hyper-Hammer with the Arasaka logo engraved on the blunt end so the corporate identity would be indented into anyone he hit with it.
    * He is, or was, a proficient user of *PanzerFaust,* a martial art designed exclusively for full-borgs to make the most out of their superhuman bodies and basically a rip of a nearly identical idea from Alita: Battle Angel.
    * His current body is a *highly* modified [Dragoon Military-use Full Body Conversion](https://cyberpunk.fandom.com/wiki/IEC_Dragoon), possibly the strongest full-borg body in the cyberpunk world.
    * He was raised up in the blasted remains of New York City by a Russian mother and a father from the Bronx.
    * He served as a US Marine for 6 years before being discharged for “insubordination.”

    I could go on, but I don’t want to ramble about stuff that has barely any relation to the main question of this post, so I’ll stop there. Hope this helps! Or, at least, entertains.
