Rifts® Ultimate Edition
Rifts® RPG, Ultimate Edition
The best selling core book is back with new imagery, characters, magic and more! As many players and Game masters have come to know, Rifts® is set in a post apocalyptic Earth where aliens, demons, magic and technology all coexist in the struggle to survive.
Imagine the whole of Earth, centuries into the future as humanity struggles to take back the world it once knew. Some rely on their technology and have formed nations like the Coalition States and the New German Republic. Others have discovered that their abilities to weild magic can also bring them great success like the nations of Lazlo and Tolkeen. Peoples, the world over, have crawled from the dark ages and have carved out kingdoms and towns however they can, just trying to survive in a world that is overflowing with magic and monsters.
A new rift opens on the planet many times each minute, so you can imagine the horrors and blessings each rift can bestow. Yet, humans and D-Bees alike have found heroes and champions who will stand against the horrors of the world and prove that life will survive another day. Both Players and Game Masters will find tons of useful information packed in these pages that will keep games unfolding for weeks, months, and years to come. Don't miss out on using its resources for your games!
