Here we go: .... misc-40r.txt Final Version for Nethack 4.0.rasfwr-j Compiled for 3.2.2 by Kevin Hugo. Edited for 3.3.0 by Dylan O'Donnell. Edited for 4.0.rasfwr-j by the Secret Usenet Cabal [TINC] . . . Invoking rasfwrjians via @ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Naming your character after rasfwr-jians will endow your character with certain traits and disadvantages. Naming your character after any rasfwr-jian regular will automatically grant In +3, Ch +3, and resistance to confusion. (See later sections for penalties for invoking afrjians --simply put, don't do it, unless you feel the overwheming urge to carry permanent intrinsic "aggravate monster" and a ceiling of 6 on Int, Wis, and Ch). Further bonuses are granted as follows: PLAYERNAME = Alistair_J._R._Young: -automatically assumes Elven Wizard class at level 10. -automatic +4 Int, -10 Ch (inherent to BOFHs) -can invoke #clicketyclick to cause random deleterious effect to monster (inherent to BOFHs). -attracts all lusers on level, to extent that can be trapped in room by sheer numbers until player starves (consuming luser corpses causes -1 Int per episode) PLAYERNAME = Bill_Garrett: -all booze quaffed acts as blessed without minuses. -automatic +10 to luck, +40 on Casino levels. Mininum earn exp*3 gold with each invocation of #gamble. -automatically seduced by inflatable sheep. PLAYERNAME = bunnythor: -immediately equip with funky-socks (perpetual invocation of #turn). -intrinsic cold resistance. PLAYERNAME = Chris_Kollmann: -able to use #unleashplague as infinite finger of death scrolls. -resistant to all viruses. -trapped for at least fifty-thousand turns within "Harvard" sublevel of Gehennom, harried by @ character "Thesis Advisor". PLAYERNAME = Emma_Pease: -automatic success on all charm monster spells. -can gain Excalibur or Amulet of Yendor simply by #askingnicely. PLAYERNAME = John_S._Novak_III: -immediately equip with iron-shod boots. - x2 damage when invoking #flameluser. -all monsters with Int > 10 flee immediately upon approach of character. In contrast, all trolls and insipid college students on level automatically home on character, with possible deleterious effects (see Alistair_J._R._Young) PLAYERNAME = Lurker_Below: -able to traverse all water squares completely silently and unobserved and attack targets on land at any range with impunity. -no need for light sources in dark areas, as glows by self. PLAYERNAME = Maggie: -immediately equip with chainmail bra (-4 to AC, +2 to Ch) -All characters f encountered automatically become pets. -All tins are chocolate (nutrional value = 3000 with no risk of choking) PLAYERNAME = Mark_Loy: -immediately equip with robe (+4 to Ch, +8 with #tossrecklesslyopen, +3 AC) - can seduce and disrobe any monster/character, regardless of sex or alignment. - can ride/mount any monster/character. However, characters don't actually move anywhere when doing so. Message line will display "Ohh! Ohhh!!! Yes! Yes! YES!!!" etc. etc. until player dismounts. PLAYERNAME = Mike_Kozlowski: -character symbol is replaced by r (for lack of direct representation of true type) -all tins contain cheese. PLAYERNAME = Michael_Steeves: -automatically assume player race of elf. -can create any potion by invoking #makegoodshit command. -all potions thrown at monsters automatically cause confusion and hallucination, in addition to normal effects, for level * 2 turns. Unfortunately, so do all self-quaffed potions. Can drive character beyond "confused" status to "really confused," "really, really confused", and "whoa-where-the-bloody-fuck-am-I" status where the levels change dimentions from moment to moment. PLAYERNAME = P._Korda: - + 20 to Wi. - can create and leave scrolls of FAQ which, when read, grant +10 Wi. - max 3 gold (inherent to player class Graduate Student). PLAYERNAME = Trent_Goulding, Kate_Nepveu, Richard_M._Boye or Flavio_Carrillo: - +5 to Ch, obtain any item from any shopkeeper for free. Can sell even iron chains for 1000 gold and everything else accordingly. At higher levels, can even convince shopkeepers to _give_ you gold for the privelege of hauling off his stuff. - gain level * Int gold every time you invoke #chat. - +10 Ch and +5 Wi after reading the scroll Bar_Exam, but hallucinate for 80 turns immediately thereafter, unless booze is quaffed at least five turns in a row after reading scroll. Attempting to read a second Bar_exam scroll causes character to kill himself/herself. - intrinsic and permanent "aggravate monster" (inherent to Lawyer class). PLAYERNAME = Scott_Spiegelberg - All wind musical instruments act as Magic Flute. PLAYERNAME = Jeff_Huo: -totally resistant to plus and minus effects of seduction. -ability to invoke #doctorishstuff which acts as infinite potions of extra healing. -perpetual haste self cast. -max HP 20 and St 6. -when invoking #chat, your character goes on and on and on and on for pages, causing monsters to either starve to death or die of boredom. ....
