 The '''Geek''' is a role added in [[NhTNG|NetHack-The Next Generation]] that is also available in [[SlashTHEM]] as ''Hacker''. It is a melee role that's hard to play. While most roles in NetHack are typical fantasy roles, the Geek is a representative role of a real life modern day person; especially a video game player.

-Geeks are a slow role (movement speed 10), and their starting equipment isn't great. Acquiring better items is mandatory to survive the early game. They have a good set of available weapon and spellcasting skills, and they may even train their riding skill if they get lucky and find a saddle; riding a [[warhorse]] (preferably one zapped by a [[wand of speed monster]]) is definitely preferable to walking around by foot.
