Reply to [PM] Give me prompts to help me think of some character and plot ideas. I'm looking to write a Cyberpunk story without being too derivative of the series I'm watching right now (Cyberpunk Edgerunners). Bonus points if the prompt includes something to help make the world unique and different. by SorryUncleAl
