Info

they are in this form they are immune to all attacks except a Solidify effect. They may only move at a normal walking rate. They cannot speak or move objects. Creatures in Gaseous Form still appear as they normally do. Voluntarily Turning gaseous or solidifying is a three counted action. Harmed by Some creatures take damage when struck by certain spells or effects. Heal by Some creatures are healed by certain types of spells or effects (For example, air, earth, fire, water, or all of them). Creatures with this ability cannot be healed by weapon attacks (except Spell strikes), but can be healed by packet attacks. Creatures healed by a damage type or effect are immune to weapon attacks (except Spell strikes) using those types or effects. Immune to/from Many creatures have immunities to some spells or effects. Creatures must call “No effect” when using this ability. Immune to Weapons Several types of creatures require special weapons (for example, silver or magic) to damage them. Normal weapons will do no damage, but the special weapon will do full damage. These creatures will tell you “No effect” if your damage is not affecting them. Mind Abilities Some creatures can perform mental abilities such as “mind melds.” These abilities are all completely role-playing in nature. Generally speaking, a creature with this ability can instill or remove role-playing insanity or otherwise “cure” mental damage. This ability cannot be used to tell if another player is telling the truth or to counteract forget-it poisons or otherwise get around any NERO rule. A player always has the right to refuse to role-play any of these skills and can at any time decide to “break off” the contact or be cured. In order to use this role-playing skill, the players must act as if touching each other and be concentrating completely by either staring in each other’s eyes or having their eyes closed. You cannot perform any in-game skills while role-playing this. Natural Armor Some monsters have a skin that acts like armor. It can be refit in sixty seconds. It cannot be Shattered or Destroyed in any way nor can it be salvaged after the creature is killed. No Metabolism Some monsters lack a metabolism. The standard definition is as follows: Immune to Death, Disease, Drain, Drain Life, First Aid, Nausea, Paralyze, Poisons, Sleep, Taint Blood, Waylay, Wither Limb. Non-Corporeal Form Some monsters are non-corporeal, having no physical form but made mainly of magic or energy. While they are in this form they are immune to normal weapons, and are immune to Pin, Bind, Web, and Confine. Phase Some creatures can become non-corporeal for an instant, avoiding an attack as the Dodge skill, and announcing “Phase.” Unlike Dodge, Phase can be used even if the creature is completely immobilized, such as if in a Confine or Paralyze. Reduced Damage Some monsters take less than normal damage from certain attacks. The NPC must call “reduced” when using this ability. Regeneration Some creatures can regenerate Body Points by spending time to regenerate, much like refitting armor. The time it takes to regenerate is most often one minute but this may vary from creature to creature. If the regeneration time is interrupted by a weapon blow or a spell that affects the creature, the process must begin again. If the process is completed, then the creature regains all lost Body Points. Some creature can do this at zero body, in this case nothing interrupts the regeneration except a killing blow that affects the creature. Renew This ability allows a creature to renew one or more abilities or skills that have limited uses by fulfilling some condition defined by that creature’s abilities. The most common condition is to take a minute to reset the ability in a manner similar to resetting armor, where any interruption prevents the abilities from returning. Some creatures may also renew skills when entering an area or even if they use another power like Revive. The options for this ability are a “single skill” chosen by the target, a “” chosen by the creature using the Renewability, or “all” skills and abilities. Resist This ability is similar to an immunity except that it is for a limited number of times per day. Unlike an Shield, the creature with this skill can decide when to use it. 83
Return A creature with the ability to Return will cause a specific type of effect directed at it to be returned to its point of origin. It functions like the Resist skill in that the creature can choose when to use a Return. Returned effects are instantly restored to the character’s skill set, although the character will not be able to use the skill again until they Meditate for 1 minute. Return can only be used on daily or times ever effects such as spells, Critical Slays, Assassinates, etc. Return can be used against stored spells/effects from formal magic items and/or production items, and in this case the Return acts like a Resist in that it prevents the effect and the charge is lost. The creature card will specify the types of Return available to that creature in a similar way to Resists. Revive A creature with this skill can rise back up after five minutes of semi-death. Instead of dissipating and going to resurrect, the creature rises with full Body Points. The creature will either have a limited number of uses of this ability or there will be some special method of preventing the creature from reviving; for example, some creatures can be prevented from using this skill by applying a Killing Blow with a silver blade. Rift /Gate Some creatures can open a rift to another plane to allow for entrance or exit or open a Gate to another place. This is a three counted action unless a fully represented gate prop is used. Some of these creatures also have the power to abduct others and force them to rift or gate out against their will. Rip from Pin/ Bind/Web/Confine Some creatures can rip free from binding spells. This is a three-count action with the phrase “I rip free one, I rip free two, I rip free three.” While the creature is doing the three-count, it is vulnerable to attack and a Killing Blow begun prior to the Ripping. While ripping free, the creature may not use any skill requiring movement, such as Dodge. A creature with the skill Rip from Pin/Bind/Web/Confine can only use this skill upon itself, never upon others. Solidify This skill forces a gaseous form to become immediately solid. It is packet delivered with the verbal “< delivery type> Solidify.” Note that the creature may still turn gaseous again after 10 minutes. Suicide Ability Minutes Unconscious (at 0) Dying (at –1) Killing Blow 1 Any healing will work 2 3 4 Body regains consciousness First Aid brings to 0, any healing will work Life effect needed Some creatures have the ability to destroy themselves if they are captured. This ability may be the equivalent of a Killing Blow or it may cause the creature to instantly dissipate and seek resurrection. Threshold This allows the creature to take only a single point of damage from any blow equal to or below its Threshold. The creature must call “Threshold” whenever a blow is landed. However, don’t expect to hear the call for every blow. Once you’ve acknowledged the call, the creature is under no obligation to continuously call “Threshold”, unless new players join the fight. These fights sometimes last a long time, so common courtesy on both sides is highly recommended. If you can exceed the limit of the hide, then the creature will take full damage from your blow. A Killing Blow can always go through a Threshold. Spell Defenses and suits of armor are affected by all blows, even if the creature wouldn’t normally be affected. Matters of Life and Death States of Existence: There are three Standard States that someone at a NERO event can be in. These are: 1) OOG: Out Of Game Life effect needed 5 6 Body goes to Resurrect 2) IG: In game and completely visible to those around you (Yes, you can try to hide in bushes, etc... but you actually have to hide.) 3) Spirit: In game and a spirit Alternate States (such as flying, burrowing, invisible, etc.) are not possible. Out-of-Game: When someone takes themselves out of the action for their own convenience, they are outof-game. In order to go out-of-game, you must wear a white headband. This signifies to others that your character is not there. Please do not abuse this, and note that your game items must stay in-game. Bathhouses or similar facilities are out-of-game. You may not however run into one if monsters are chasing you. Anyone traveling to and from the showers may be out-of-game if they so choose. If they are out-of- 84
