~ Oh, Oh, Goodness YES !! RIFTER #49’s VAMPIRES

Unread post by TechnoGothic »

Thank You Ed Woodward III. Thanks you and anyone who helped you to create your versions of Vampires for Palladium games. These are Vampires, real vampires.

Quick Review is in Order. Vampire Lords. YES. These are what I think of when talking about Vampires the Lords of the Undead. I Love how they are “Cursed” with Undeath. Master Vampires. YES. Again you hit the nail on the head of what a Master vampire should be. Common Vampires. Yes. More perfection of what vampires are really like. Though I refuse to use the term Secondary Vampires due to the connection to Rifts VI craptastic types of vampires.

SKILLS. I enjoy how you have made Vampires Playable Characters in regards to skills. Love it.
Age Points. As a means of gaining their powers. Brilliant. I love it.

Flawed Vampires. Pretty good write up actually. I look forward to using one as an NPC at some point in a future game.

Five Stars out of Five. Some of the best work i've seen written for palladium to date.

THIS is how I portray Vampires form now in in ALL PB games. I was never a big fam of the tentacled eye-ball vampire intelligence.
I am very opinionated. Yes I rub people the wrong way but at the end of the day I just enjoy good hard discussion and will gladly walk away agreeing to not agree :D

We can be a fan of both, doesn't hurt to have multiple sources of vampirism. Palladium already had several.

I don;t disagree. It's why I now have the "Vampire Wars". Vampire Intelligence Vampires (I consider the VI to be essentially just a different Alien Intelligence type Zashan ( ? ) from England) versus True Vampires.

Rifter 49 vampires do not burn when exposed to running water, but these can be killed by drowning in running water. So, water guns, unless filled with holy water, will not do squat to them.....
