What is NERO?

The New England Roleplaying Organization, NERO ®, is a live action role-playing game based in a medieval fantasy genre. The NERO Game Systems © support player characters that advance in experience and ability based on event attendance and treasure acquired during game play.

Unlike many other Roleplaying games, the NERO Game System uses boffer combat and thrown cloth packets to determine the outcome of battles. Your character's skills and attributes are determined by what you decide your character wishes to learn with any Build Points that are gained through playing an Adventure, Adventure Day, or Weekend Gathering. However, unlike in table-top gaming, you act out what your character does. If you want to chase a monster, you run after it - if it wants to chase you, the monster runs after you! If you want to duck out of the way, you can do it without using any skills. With practice and hard work, you can make the difference between playing your character and playing a bunch of numbers on a piece of paper.

Our Mission: We will entertain our players by providing a gaming atmosphere that is both challenging and fun, regardless of whether a person prefers adventure, combat, political, physical, role-playing, or mental challenges. We will offer our members well-balanced events that provide all of our players an equal opportunity to be both entertained and advance in the areas of their particular skills and interests.
