Jeremiah Grayson, one of his most loyal men, became his right-hand, and for a job well done, Smasher gifted him Silverhand's unique pistol. During this time, Adam made the Ebunike Docks in Watson his base of operations. Some time after 2050, Adam was assigned as Yorinobu Arasaka's bodyguard and was placed in charge of carrying out Arasaka's dirtiest work, gaining a reputation for expert management of loose ends. Although he had sold much of Silverhand's items, he decided to keep some of them - including Silverhand's Porsche and his signature gun, the Malorian Arms 3516. Īt some point after 2045, Smasher seemingly found more of Silverhand's possessions in Samantha Stevens' garage, and around the country. He also teamed up with Rogue Amendiares for a time. ĭuring the next decades, Smasher would come and go from Night City. The two dated for some time after Michiko turned 18, and Michiko's bodyguard Kenichi Zaburo threatened Smasher to mind his manners around her. Shortly after, Adam disappeared for many years.Īdam Smasher met Michiko Arasaka, his boss Kei Arasaka's daughter, when she was a sheltered seventeen-year-old girl. Smasher was supposedly tasked by Saburo Arasaka to take care of Silverhand's body and his possessions, being one of the few people who knew where Johnny was buried.

Blackhand remarked about testing Smasher's philosophy for itself shortly before the nuclear bomb detonated. Smasher later appeared at the top of the tower, preparing to fight Blackhand as the rest of the extraction team left on their aerodyne. Despite that, Adam had injured Johnny badly, leaving him to be retrieved from Arasaka medical team. However, Silverhand distracted him, shouting and firing at him with his gun, getting injured by Smasher in the process, yet giving Shaitan an opportunity to hold Smasher back. That night, as remarked by a former SpecOps operative who was present at the mission, Smasher and the rest of the Arasaka troops ambushed Johnny Silverhand and Morgan Blackhand's team. During this time, on August 23rd, Smasher was present at what would become the Night City Holocaust at the top of Arasaka Tower. Arasaka supplied him with everything he could ever want, including the DaiOni power armor conversion gear that turned Adam into a nearly unstoppable machine. Adam was more than happy to fight for them because he knew Morgan Blackhand had been hired by Militech. ![]() In 2022, Adam Smasher was recruited by Arasaka to fight in the Fourth Corporate War. Meanwhile, his secret benefactors (who turned out to be a branch of Arasaka security) allowed him time for freelancing. Naturally, this snubbing had simply stoked the cyborg's psychopathic rage higher. Adam had repeatedly tried to challenge him to a face-off, but Morgan only ignored him at every possible confrontation. During this time, he had developed a quiet rivalry with Morgan Blackhand, seeing the classic Solo as a threat to his metal-is-better-than-meat worldview. He did have one stipulation: Collateral damage and civilian casualties are a must. He hired out for almost any mission presented to him, as long as it wasn't an obvious suicide or double-cross. Seven years later, the new cybernetic Adam Smasher had made quite a name for himself along the eastern seaboard. As if thoughts of lost humanity would bother Adam. A mysterious corporate benefactor took note and made him the classic offer he couldn't refuse: corporate service in a metal body, or death. His buddies backpacked what was left of him out of the zone and back to the Big Apple. A couple of rockets turned him into meatloaf. But he finally went on that one job where everything fell apart. It was a good life for Adam, as his lack of squeamishness and sadistic thoroughness brought in enough jobs to keep him in guns, gear, drugs, and brutal one-night stands. After several years in uniform, he was discharged for bad conduct and took up being a contract gun-boy in his home city. ![]() Adam Smasher was a fairly typical punk, a worthless New York City mook who joined the Army when his gang was wiped out. ![]()
