Damn you elusive Fairy RPG

April 4, 2006 4:49 PM

Pen and paper RPG identification filter. I am trying to find a RPG I download in the waning days of the BBS's that was a tongue and cheek (but still pretty fully fleshed out) RPG based on fairys.

I remember when printed out the file was about 100 pages (all text of course) give or take.
There were three races I think. Human, Faerie, and Elf.

Anyone ever see this file floating around back in the day?

Response by poster: Maybe I should mention it was completely downloaded from a BBS, all text. Not a scan or rip from a printed book (as far as I could tell)

So many BBS docs are on textfiles.com now - you might be able to dig it up there. This might get you started; I didn't see anything right off the bat though.

Have you tried John Kim's list? He includes almost every RPG ever published or not published.

Are you looking for Fairies, "Role-playing Adventures in a World of Austere Crusaders and Magical Forest Creatures with Dubious Gender and Questionable Sexuality", written by Steve Miller in 1994?
