The NAPD polices the unpoliceable city. Detectives, patrol, SWAT, K9/Hachi-Inu units, and forensics fight orgcrime, runners, and political pressure. HHI outfits them; NBN films them; corps buy exceptions.

SotB treats NAPD as a favor faction and adversary source. Years on the Force talent ties PCs to the badge.

Netrunner / Android novels often center NAPD detectives in cyberpunk cases (e.g. Louis Blaine–style archetypes in expanded fiction).
