Sasha Yakovleva Edit

Sasha's mother, Galina, died when she was a child because of the side effects of Biotechnica painkillers. In adulthood, Yakovleva became a part of Maine's crew of edgerunners as a netrunner alongside Dorio and Rebecca. She shared history with Stella Ramos. One night, after getting drinks in the Afterlife, her crew were hired to infiltrate Biotechnica's Night City HQ to extract secret financial records on CHOOH2 and information on a new immunosuppressant prototype 0.091. While getting the information, she discovered confidential files on Securicine - the painkillers her mother used while she was sick. The main side effect of the painkiller included gradual neurodegeneration and that, despite this being known, Biotechnica decided that Securicine was too profitable and would not be pulled from the market. Sasha, determined to do right by her mother, started to upload the entire Securicine database file to the N54 News tipline and activated a bomb in consequence of getting detected. She fought Biotechnica defense robots until the upload got complete, however, while the upload had completed, she would be shot through the window and killed. Maine would find her body with a smile after caving in the roof of a pedestrian's Chevillon Thrax. Sasha would later get replaced by Kiwi as the crew's main netrunner.
