Trivia

Cyber Knights Classic

Cyber Knights Classic, or CKC, is the name now applied to Cyber Knights (or Cyber Knights RPG), an RPG developed by Trese Brothers from 2011 to 2017 for Android. The setting was the New Boston Zone in the year 2217. The game and setting was inspired by tabletop RPG campaigns run by Trese Brothers in the 1990s and 2000s. Cyber Knights: Flashpoint uses the same setting as CKC, 14 years later in the timeline. Some of the characters, classes, and items in Cyber Knights: Flashpoint derive from the Cyber Knights Classic game and the earlier tabletop games.

Agent Ex

The original AgentEX was a player character created by a friend of Trese Brothers for their mutual tabletop RPG campaigns in the 1990s. He was the ex-executioner for the king, sent away because he was too public of a symbol of how the king had come to power. He was a maniac, he had a name but he insisted on everyone calling him "Agent EX" and he refused to wear armor because it was not very stylish.

A little while later, as Trese Brothers were building out the nano-hive classes for their own cyberpunk home-brew TTRPG, Agent EX was floated and universally loved as the class name. That class inspired the Agent Extreme character class in the Cyber Knights Classic game, which in turn inspired the Agent Ex character class in Cyber Knights: Flashpoint.

Brave Star

The name Brave Star was inspired by an 80s TV show, BraveStarr. Conceptually, Brave Star is modelled as a privatized version of the Boston Police Department.

Matsumoto

Matsumoto Corporation appeared in Cyber Knights Classic as Yakamoto. The name has been retconned to avoid any appearance of conflict with a real-world Yakamoto corporation.

UltraTek

UltraTek Corporation appeared in Cyber Knights Classic as AzTek. The name has been retconned to avoid any appearance of conflict with a real-world AzTek corporation.

Los Zagales

The Los Zagales gang appeared in Cyber Knights Classic as Los Valentinos. The name has been retconned to avoid any appearance of conflict with the Valentinos gang in Cyberpunk RED.

Fenian

The Fenian gang appeared in Cyber Knights Classic as Fennian, named after the Fens in the Back Bay area of Boston. The Fens is the remains of a saltwater marsh, or fenland, along the west side of the original peninsula where Boston was built. The Fens was later turned into a freshwater parkland and landfilled neighborhood, and home of Fenway Park.

B-Tuna

The contact B-Tuna is based on a Shadowrun character named TB Tuna, created by a friend of the Trese Brothers.
