This list is intended for any cyberpunk / dark future setting (like Cyberpunk (all versions), Cy_borg, Carbon 2185, Altered Carbon, Axon Punk, Android, Shadowrun, Rifts, etc.) where technology is not necessarily uniform or simple.

NOTE: We recommend that no Capsule Hotel try to attempt more than two side hustles at any time, since each requires it’s own resources. Results ending with an “*” are illegal ventures.
This Roll Percentile list has one hundred possible results in this format:
