Question - Frequency of Ley Line storms and Rifts
Posted: Fri Jan 13, 2023 11:17 pm
Good day my fellow GM readers
Researching for adventure material.
Been reading up on ley lines and rifts from Rifts Ultimate Edition.
I have found:
Two equinoxes every year: one around March 21 and another around September 22.
two solstices happen in June (20 or 21) and December (21 or 22).
There are zero to three lunar eclipses per year
Three or four partial eclipses in a year.
At ley lines, more if at a nexus, between 20% per hour or so for daylight hours. So chances are good that during the special days one or two will occur for around 2 hours.
Other than that there does not appear to be any table to roll on about when a ley line storm would happen. There are tables about what could go on during a ley line storm as well as how long it would last but not "IF" or how often a storm will occur.
If I were to make a guess I'd put the chances at 1 or 2 percent a day. So odds are 3 to 6 storms a year even though technical none could occur or they could have one every day.
I think a ley line walker has a spell Summon Ley Line Storm but the rest occur naturally
An atlantean stone pyramid should stop all naturally occuring ley line storms.
After writing this I realize I am also trying to create/predict averages for how frequently rifts occur regardless of "IF" or "WHO" comes out of them.
Please share any ideas.
