RIFTS 2002
Character Classes
As if you couldn't guess, I didn't draw this. Odd that.
OCC = Occupational Character Class
RCC = Racial Character Class
| Apologies for the terrible formatting... this is what happens when you quickly convert Word documents to HTML... sorry. If I can ever be bothered, I'll make it look nice. Until then, you'll have to make do.
Bear in mind that not all OCC's are compatible with the RCC's... for example Dog Boys have their own RCC skills, and Fennodi can only be a limited selection of OCC's. For those of you not actually in this campaign, this is the OCC / RCC list for this years Rifts game. | As you can see, the lists have now been formatted into tables, so they look nicer. It's all about aesthetics isn't it? *sighs* |

Yesterday. "BAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH" |
Note that I might allow something else from the myriad of Rifts books, so long as it's not a power armour pilot, Dragon or Glitter Boy (to mention just a few)…
Here are some statistics to keep you amused…
| Total OCC's | = 52 |
| Total RCC's | = 32 |
| Total character choices | = 84 |
| Total character potential | = 1664 (approx) |
| Mistaken potential | = 191,991,813,900,000 (!) |
So even with these 'few' character selections you have a choice of over 1600 character combinations (I originally worked it out to be almost 192 billion, but that’s a different story). Don't say I don't do anything for you. Apart from work out boring statistics.
Character Notes
| Starting Level: | 2 - plus 10% to go towards Level 3 |
| Restricted Alignments: | Anarchist, Miscreant, and Diabolic (if you have a good enough character idea I may ignore this - however, I have discovered these alignments do not work well in groups) |
| Equipment: | Weapons and possibly armour may be restricted depending on the OCC / RCC selected |
| Vehicle: | Each player may have an individual vehicle (if OCC permits), or may elect to possess a single 'group' vehicle. A group vehicle will be better than an individual one. |
Recommended OCC's
| OCC | Reasoning |
| Ley Line Walker / Other Magic OCC: | Mages have very diverse capabilities |
| Mind Melter / Other Psionic PCC: | Psionic powers are highly formidable |
| Dog Boy / Psi-Stalker: | Supernatural detection is always useful |
| Cyber Knight: | Powerful warriors and good against technology |
| Techno-Wizard: | It helps to have infinite ammo J |
| Operator: | When tech goes wrong, these guys can fix it |
| Borg / Headhunter / Bounty Hunter: | Sometimes might does make right |
Using my psycho-powers and enormous chin I have determined that the following amount of things have inspected this page:
