Geocache Description:

Parking coords of N 40 06.590 W 82 52.453 should get you close to trail access. Most of the trails are gravel but there are many other dirt paths. There will be bushwacking involved, and depending on your approach it could be over fairly steep terrain. The cache is a medium sized ammo can.

Based on the Storyboard: Nebit the Gnome cache, this Role-Playing Game (RPG) is designed for GeoCachers to play anywhere, either with a group or by themselves.

You will create a character from the Gnome homeland that is searching for the missing Nebit. Along the way, your character will encounter various Monsters.

By using a cache rating system, each cache will be associated with a Monster that the Character can try to defeat. The Monster will be different depending on if you are caching in an Urban or Rural setting. The harder the cache is to find, the harder the Monster will be to defeat.

As you defeat Monsters, your character will gain levels, skills, & items. These things will help your character become stronger and be able to defeat different types of Monsters. Each character class has abilities that also help defeat certain Monsters.

All you will need to play the game is a Player’s Handbook, a character, writing utensil, and of course the tools required to go GeoCaching. A message board has been set up in order to provide the game files needed and create a place where you can write entries of your character’s adventures. This is an optional aspect and is not required to play the game.

Playing the RPG is not required to find the cache.


Below you will find links to the Message Board, Player’s Handbook, and Character Sheet.
