Iris Tanner

Iris Tanner
Type	Side Character

Iris Tanner is a gifted nomad techie for whom work is life. A gig is never about the money for her but about the challenge. She still bargains hard, because it is the only way to be taken seriously. On principle she does not work with fixers, but she makes an exception for Dakota Smith, not because she likes her, but because this time she needs her.

Biography

The Techie

Dakota Smith counts Iris among the best techies she has met in her long years outside Night City. Iris is terse and hard to talk to, and she believes she reads people well. In truth, her deep wish to be admired for her skills makes her easy to manipulate. Dakota thinks this is why she so often deals with the Wraiths.

Held by the Wraiths

A Wraith named Kojo hires Iris to repair vehicles at a Wraith outpost after their own techie dies. While she haggles over the price, the Wraiths give her a choice: stay and work, or be cut to pieces. Under guard, she gets an old radio working and sends a call for help to Dakota, who sends V to free her.
