I am new here and have only recently joined the Savagerifts community. I'd like to introduce myself and share my excitement about being able to immerse myself in Rifts Worlds and enjoy the adventure with you. I've always been drawn to tabletop role-playing games, and have heard a lot of positive feedback about Savage Worlds and its adaptation for the Rifts world. When I heard there was an active community here, I couldn't pass it by and decided to join. I'm currently exploring the "Newcomers' Station" section of the forum to get more information on the rules and setting up of the game. I'm very grateful for all the helpful tips and tutorials you've already provided for newcomers, and I hope to find a lot of useful information here.

Welcome @AtticusSanchez. Please look around and make yourself at home. We have an active discord server where we chat with discreet channels for helping the GMs communicate with players. https://discord.com/invite/5DxSNut

If you decide to play a game, then once you are ready say so and we will help you out.
  • 2D6 EFFECT
    2 Catastrophe: Something goes terribly wrong. The GM must decide what, but some ideas are a new and permanent Minor Hindrance, the inability to use powers for several days, or an explosion of some sort. The backlash should be thematic if possible. If the hero tampers with dark forces for his abilities, for example, he might become corrupted or summon something sinister into the world. If he’s a weird scientist the device might explode for 3d6 damage in a Medium Blast Template, or he might develop a Quirk, Phobia, or other “madness.”

    3 Backfire: The power succeeds as with a raise but affects a different target with the worst possible results. A bolt hits a random friend, boost Trait increases an enemy’s skill or attribute, etc. If there’s no likely target, he’s Stunned instead. If the power has a Duration other than Instant, it lasts its full term and can only be negated by dispel (the caster can’t voluntarily end it herself).

    4–5 Short Circuit: The power fails but the Power Points allocated to it are spent, along with an additional 1d6 Power Points.

    6–8 Stunned: The caster is Stunned (see page 106). She subtracts 2 from arcane skill rolls for the rest of the encounter (the penalty remains –2 even if she gets this result again).

    9–10 Overload: The character’s synapses crackle and overload with power. He takes 2d6 damage plus the cost of the power in Power Points, including any Power Modifiers the player declared.

    11 Fatigue: The character suffers Fatigue.

    12 Overcharge: The power draws ambient energy from the air, automatically succeeding against the target with a raise and costing the caster no Power Points!
