*** However in balance for making the monsters more like players in using items, they are rendered vulnerable to drowning [for non-aquatic enemies at least, including the first three types of boss-monsters], falling long distances and taking damage/dying, walking on hazardous lava and slime will damage them, being near electrical reactors also hurts them, and all such things like that. However they can also as mentioned, wear protective boots and scuba gear to combat the drowning and hazardous floor problems [sometimes].

* [[Fashion Magazine]]: One of several types of "Memorbilia" items, which give Rank points when picked up. In particular, there are five types of actual fashion magazines, all of them from the company "Vauge" [a parody of "Vouge", obviously]. On the cover of these magazines are [http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i175/lordmisfit/naferiasreign/vauge_may97-magazine.png Christina], [http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i175/lordmisfit/naferiasreign/vauge_june97-magazine.png Lisa], [http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i175/lordmisfit/naferiasreign/vauge_july97-magazine.png Maken], [http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i175/lordmisfit/naferiasreign/vauge_september97-magazine.png Lori] and even the [http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i175/lordmisfit/naferiasreign/vauge_august97-magazine-1.png "Mysterious Woman"]. Lisa's makes the most sense in context due to the fact her on-site bio says she has some experience as a teen fashion model.

** Also, if you look closely, the name "Hinotori Genkai" is on the cover of the Mysterious Woman's issue. This is a bit confusing since the game otherwise seems to revolve around [[My Name Is Question Marks|keeping her name all question marks]].

*** Actually, if you turn the "Debug Variables" on in the in-game "Toggle Menu", the question marks in her name change to "Hinotori Genkai". I guess it has to do with some kind of spoiler for the storyline. What her name really means in context is still totally unknown.

** Also, a subversion of this trope is that there is one non-fashion magazine, the "Guns and Weapons" magazine, of which [[Duke Nukem|Duke]] himself is on the cover in [http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i175/lordmisfit/naferiasreign/gunsandweapons_june1997-magazine.png a really awesome pose]. The high-resolution version of the cover also has a couple of clever notes on it, although [[Your Mileage May Vary]].

** Additionally, Lisa has an ability that her on-site bio calls "Lady Luck", which increases the chances of more money being drop by not only enemies, but busted ATM machines and breaking the small money-jars that appear in some bar-like levels, with the catch that Lisa has to be the active character when these things happen for it to work. The higher her level range, the more money even the normal enemies drops, let alone the Pigcops.

* [[Mook Maker]]: The Super Drone variant of Sentry Drones will periodically spawn in random enemies of ANY species of aliens in the game, including on rare occasions the super hard versions of the first three boss monsters [Elimination Squad Soldier, Megaton Overlord, Cycloid Void Annhilator]. They also try to spawn one final enemy upon their destruction to spite you.

* [[The Nameless]]: The mod actually subverts this and gives the formerly nameless aliens of [[Duke Nukem|Duke Nukem 3D]] a species name: ''Triocladiar''.

** The Mysterious Woman is also this for the most part, unless you look at a specific magazine cover or use the debug-variables option in the Toggles Submenu. Why her name changes with debug mode on, we have no idea.
