Toon Tuesday: Ra the D’norr Devilman Body-Fixer (Rifts)

The D’norr Devilmen and their compassion have always fascinated me, but I’d never writen one up, and it’s been awhile since I’ve written a healer type character! Skill characters are probably my favourites. I decided to max this character’s IQ stat, as the character itself is designed to be a genius doctor. I want to note that I have never done this before, and will rarely opt to do so in the future.

Game: Palladium Books’ Rifts RPG
Books Needed: Rifts Ultimate Edition, and Rifts World Book 30: D-Bees of North America.
Recommended Setting: Suitable as a support PC for any adventuring group, also as an NPC. Not recommended for Coalition or evil aligned campaigns. Can travel in all but the most extreme climates.

Toon Tuesday: Quill the Vintex Warrior (Rifts)

I’ve never written a Vintex before, M.D.C. races are intimidating to put together sometimes and I’ve rarely ever played a strict merc class/race. But the Vintex Warrior is a surprising breeze compared to many other M.D.C. playable races! No worries about mucking around with magic, psionics, or huge skill selections; this race is incredibly straight forward. And then his background and occupation were just so interesting to combine! Enjoy.

Game: Palladium Books’ Rifts RPG
Books Needed: Rifts Ultimate Edition, and Rifts World Book 30: D-Bees of North America.
Recommended Setting: Most common in Canada, New West or the Pecos Empire, written as a bodyguard/butler/caretaker wih optional play style as the hired help of another party member. Also suitable as a reasonably powerful NPC of the same occupation.

Toon Tuesday: Wid the Iktektumik Hunter-Gatherer (Rifts)

I was always interested in the Diggers, but I’ve never made one until now. Their culture and lifestyle is similar to that of the Native American people, and thus they are similar to the Mastodonoid race (who are like the Inuit tribes), which I have enjoyed playing in the past. I do my best to avoid cultural stereotypes and appropriation, so let me know if anything is off!

Game: Palladium Books’ Rifts RPG
Books Needed: Rifts Ultimate Edition, and Rifts World Book 30: D-Bees of North America.
Recommended Setting: Best suited to New West, Mexico, or other hot, desert regions. Ill-suited for high tech campaigns, better made for a wandering adventure that likens to his nomadic or Native tribal culture, or one that involves lots of tunnels and climbing.
