Dude, Do You Even Rift?!

This game is for experience roleplayers of Rifts and by invitation only. We simply do not have time to walk new players through character creation, explain the rules, nor tour the setting. I decided to create this game due to what I perceived to be a strong demand.

This game is rated PG-13. Content may include adult situations, in-character offensiveness, violence, and graphic horror.

Characters: I suggest steering towards the Unprincipled alignment and away from extreme alignments of Principled and Diabolic. Fresh characters should probably be 1st level, but you are welcome to continue playing an established character from a previous game with levels that you have earned. Just don't go above 10th level. Please don't make any multiple personality characters as they are a pain to play in play-by-post. Any playable classes and equipment from the main book (1st edition or Unlimited) should be okay. Most stuff out of any of New West, other World Books, Beyond the Supernatural, Palladium Fantasy (main book), or After the Bomb should be okay. Most other stuff is probably okay also -- just check with me.

House Rules: I try to stick close to canon rules. For ease of use, however, I have streamlined skill percentages. Please do not bother looking up every skill percentage. Just assume that every skill begins at 25% and increases 5% with each subsequent experience level. Yes, percentile bonuses from I.Q. and class bonuses may still be applied. If making a fresh character, every skill is available regardless of whether it is on a list of accessible skills or not. Just take to common sense prerequisite skills first. Take Mathematics Basic before Mathematics: Advanced. Take First Aid before Paramedics. Take the language skill before the literacy skill in that same language, et cetera. It is my experience that building skills this way cuts half and hour or more from character creation time. If you don't like this house rule or you already have your character rolled up, disregard.
