Cuz I wanna make one

No. Nightbane is a race of beings onto themselves. Kinda like asking if a frost giant can become a spirit of light.
It is possible that a Nightbane could have a Morphus much like a Algor Frost Giant, but not for either one to actually be the other.

Also, probably more of a Palladium Fantasy or Nightbane question.

So no facade frost giant. And imma play it in rifts

Between the Shadows pg 142 wrote:Nightbanes and Other Races: The Facade of a Nightbane can belong to any non-supernatural humanoid (and humansized) race, although most (90%) Nightbane are human. This includes such races as Elves, Dwarves, True Atlaneans, and similar human-like races. No supernatural race (includes races with supernatural strength, large amounts of S.D.C. (100+) or any mega-damage beings or creatures of magic) are never Nightbane.

I'm not familiar with the Algor Frost Giants, but there are the guidelines for a Rifts race Nightbane Facades

Why not just make a gigantes using nightbane traits as its mutations?

Great idea!!

That would be very interesting.

RRRAWWW, Me NO GIANT, YOU JUST TINY PERSON.

Yes it is quite the coolest idea. Or you can make them as biotic. That would be cool too. Combine both would be tad excessive perhaps.(a Biotic Giant with nightbanish traits...add a radioactive breath and we have a Kajiu level monster!!)

Can algor frost giants become nightbanes?

No! frost giants can not "become""change into" a nightbane.

No, Nightbane can not have a 'Giant' facade, nightbane can only have a human facade page 162 RDC.

According to Between the shadows if the facade is other then human, it has to meet three things: human sized, not SN or CoM, and have less then 100 SDC in their facade (I am thinking this to be the racial average of the race the facade is shaped as.)

NB's are not a race as we would know it. They can not breed.
All NB are foundlings. (Yes, foundlings can be mistaken to be orphans, and in the modern world would be labeled as orphans, because the cops would not want to look for the "abandoning parents".
The NBSG just muddied the waters by including a random table for placement in the adopting family, w/o using the term "adopting family" with in the tables' supporting text.
---------------------------------------
If you have rifts as your canon, then use the RDC, If you think rifts canon is nuts and use the NB books as your canon for NB, then use what is said in the NB MB and NB:BTS.

I for one use my NightSpawn MB as my canon, and use the NB books to supplement it. At the first because of the rubbish things found in RDC; and the rubbish in the NB:SG just adds to the reasons.

But you could have a Nightspawn that had a Frost Giant Morphus.

That could be done...


IF


...his GM allowed the fairy tale table in R20.
