Forums of the Megaverse®

I asked this in another post but didn't really get a answer, so here I am asking again. What effect did the Dark Day have on the Megaverse? Did people-beings in other dimensions notice. Were the barriers the Night Lords put up weakened at all, or what?

As far as official cannon is concerned, Dark Day only affected the Nightlands and the Earth of the Nighbane. The rest of the Megaverse probably didn't even notice the change (except for those obscenely powerful entities like the Cosmic Forge and super-alien intelligences). Other than that, I'd guess that hardly anyone noticed or cared.

But that's just my take. A GM should feel free to have the effects of Dark Day take on a wider, more Megaversal impact, if that's what they want to do.

I can't remember off the top of my head, but didn't Dark Day coincide with the release of the Necrophim from their prison. I don't know how much BtS will back me up either, but i believe they fought against the forces of light along with the Old Ones. The other angels (spirits of light) should have noticed that.

I'd say the inner plane of the astral plane is where the most megaversal crossover would be. And that would be extremely extremely rare, and not any more unusual than any of the other horrific things one might encounter there.

Of course, it will all depend on the particular GM and campaign. In my game, which is a TMNT turned HU world (AKA Universe-H, or sometimes Universe Prime) it is just another one of the alternate dimensions fairly close by in the megaverse [like Earth-3 or something]. In other words, there are some groups of Superheros in my main game-world that are aware of Dark Day and lend a hand when they can.

thats interesting indeed. did the author say which world etc? more details?

I dont have any RIFTS-books....

Actually by the book,Inti(the Sun god) went to the Nightlands.He was beaten badly and 100 demigods of his pantheon were killed.He wants to find a way to return to the Nightlands,when he has fully regained his strength.

Silverith, that topic is already being dealt with on another thread. bringing it up here is not only OOT, it's plain irrelevant and bad form.

Not to mention that juicing up adolescent is probably just not done and that the sea titan organism would reject all the implants, including sensors, biocomp and injection rigs as soon as his regeneration ability manifested...

back to the munchkin juicer thread for more detail.

Dark Day should be viewed as an event of megaversal significance.

Of course given that begins in tune with such things (ie deities) have taken 300 years or so to get to Rifts Earth . . . don't expect the deities to come banging on the door.
