There are three major characters with whom you can create long-term relationships with throughout the game. Some of them are integral to the main story. To romance them, you’ll need to consistently interact with them and treat them well, completing their story arcs and building a relationship with them over time.

Additionally, answering their texts and calls also seems to contribute to building a relationship with them. Furthermore, your character choices and your paramour’s sexuality determine who you can or can’t romance.

One such character is Panam Palmer. This guide focuses on interacting with Panam and developing your friendship with her into a fully-fledged romance.

Panam Palmer

Palmer is a former nomad who left the Aldecados nation after a dispute with her family’s leader, Saul. She now works as a mercenary in Night City. During her childhood, her best friend was abducted by a rival nomad group. An incident that she avoids talking about and one that affected her deeply.

She was saved by another Aldecaldo Member, Cassidy Righter, who became Panam’s close friend and grew protective of her. She is also close friends with several other clan members. Due to this, she often regrets leaving her nomad family, although she still believes her life needs a change.

How to Romance Panam

Keep in mind your V will have to have a male body for Panam to show romantic interest in you.

You first meet Panam while working for Rogue in Act 2, during the Ghost Town story mission. After which, she’ll become a recurring character in the next few quests. After finishing the Life During Wartime story quest, you’ll have to wait somewhere around 12 in-game hours before receiving a call from Panam, which will start her questline.

These are the choices you should make in the quests preceding this event if you want to romance Panam:

  • Lightning Breaks: Offer to share one room with Panam when she suggests sleeping in the motel.
  • Life During Wartime: Ask Panam to help you track down Hellman after saving Mitch. Defend Panam against Saul at the end of the mission. You will receive a text from Panam after the mission. Choose a long reply instead of just replying with “OK.”

Riders of the Storm

Panam’s questline starts with the quest Riders of the Storm. Do note that you can fail this quest, stopping Panam’s story arc and ending your hopes of romancing her. So it’s wise to make a save file before continuing.

During this quest, make sure to side with Panam when she and Saul talk about it. At some point during this quest, you will be given the option to go to the Raffen Shiv camp alone or with Panam, this choice doesn’t matter, but you will have to meet Panam there within 24 hours if you don’t want to fail the quest.

Lastly, when you two spend the night together at Ingali’s Farm, invite her to make herself comfortable and choose the option to touch her thigh. She will reject your advances for now, but this will allow you to romance her later.

With a Little Help From My Friends

After finishing the Riders of the Storm quest, you will receive another call from Panam after 12 in-game hours, starting the quest With a Little Help From My Friends. This quest also contains important choices. Firstly, do not tell Saul about Panam’s plans when prompted; this will end the questline. Second, when Panam asks why you’re helping her, do not imply that you’re doing it for the money; this will ruin your chances of romancing her.

There are also some other things you can do during this quest to help romance Panam:

  • When talking with her by the window, select the option to say, “I missed you.”
  • Panam will tell you that she’s impulsive but is trying to take things slow between the two of you as she cares about you. Make sure to agree with her.
  • When given the option to touch Panam’s hand, take it. This will also let you tell her to try following her impulse next time.
  • After your conversation in the tower, you will join the nomads around a campfire. During this segment, scooch up next to Panam.

Queen of the Highway

After finishing With a Little Help From My Friends, wait another 24 in-game hours to receive a call from Panam, starting her final quest, Queen of the Highway. Return to the Aldecados camp to meet Panam and enter the Basilisk.

Inside the Basilisk, you two will share a cozy ride together. When you finish your training in the Basilisk, Panam will hook in. Then, a dialogue option will appear that will let her touch your thigh. This will start a sexual encounter with Panam, where you synchronize your bodies, starting your romance with her.
