Enjoy the archive! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Fairies.txt.gz, Fairies.txt.Z: Content: NL01 "Fairies!" "Fairies!" is the first in the NUELOW series of light-hearted role-playing games for the sexually obsessed gamers. Born out of a flame-war in the rec.games.frp.advocacy group, "Fairies!" contains all the rules needed to play the NUELOW game, as well as a suggested setting and adventures. Players and GMs need to supply the sense of humor, and, if they must, the dirty minds. "Fairies!" is a fantasy role-playing game that allows players to assume the roles of either fairies (magical woodland creatures with questionable gender that live only for fun, games, and the pleasures of the flesh), crusaders (sexually repressed warriors that live only for battle), and half-fairies (creatures who feel ashamed over their half-breed status and who live for the pleasures of the flesh, violence, and the eradication of other races so they no longer feel ashamed). Lust_and_Dust.txt.gz, Lust_and_Dust.Z: Content: NL02 "Lust and Dust!" "Lust and Dust!" is a light-hearted RPG that lets players create and play a wide variety of characters identified as typical of the mythic American West. (This includes dancehall girls, homesteaders, gunslingers, piano players, bountyhunters, and much, much more.) It is a self-contained, complete game that is part of the larger NUELOW net.freebie comedy "gameline." Queens.txt.gz, Queens.txt.Z: Content: NL03 "Ugly Ducklings and Ice Queens!" "Ugly Ducklings and Ice Queens!" is a stand-alone game in the NUELOW series of light-hearted RPGs. Less preoccupied with sex than other entries in the line, this game features a setting and game-background inspired primarily by Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale "The Snow Queen," and sports rules for the play and generation of child player characters, as well as standard NUELOW human PCs. Horndogs.txt.gz, Horndogs.txt.Z: Content: NL04 "Horndogs!" "Horndogs!" is the fourth self-contained role-playing game in the NUELOW series of net.freebies for the sexually obsessed role-player with a sense of humor. It features all the rules needed to play the game, and rules for creating and playing students at Frankenhoofer U., a modern-day university setting where the students are too busy "getting the most out of their college experience" to actually attend classes. Trampled.txt.gz, Trampled.txt.Z: Content: The Complete Net.Guide To Being Mangled, Stomped and Trampled: A NUELOW Net.Supplement" This NUELOW expansion features rules for being trampled by all sorts of creatures in the NUELOW game. (They are also featured in NL04, but this version contains alternative rules and other fluff for your reading pleasure.) NUELOW_FAQ.gz, NUELOW_FAQ.Z: Content: What do you _think_ it is?
