RIFTS CHARACTER SHEET

The following is intended to help players organize characters as much as possible. It is intended that you type in the information to
each blank spot (starting with the character name), and then print it out for a clean, neat referance. Just hit your TAB key to move
from one field to the next.

SOME NOTES ABOUT FILLING IN THE FORM

There are a number of “extra” blank spots. These are for you to add information that you might consider necesary, that I may
have omitted.

I have been asked about a space for adding in combat bonuses that apply with armor and robots. Well, when I add stats in
the “Combat Skills” section (on page 2) I’ll put both stats (e.g.: Initiative: 4 / 5. 4 is outside of the armor, 5 is inside the ar-
mor)

On page 4, you’ll see a column called “Inventory/Miscellaneous/Notes”. This is intended to jot down most of the items your
character has, as well as anything pertinent to him/her/it.

On page 6 (Psionics) you’ll see the heading “Master Psionic” “Major Psionic” and “Lesser Psionic”. This is to remind you
which your character has, since it’s possible that your character rolled for psionic ability at creation.. and it’s easy to forget
which he might be.

With Adobe Acrobat, you can print out which ever page(s) you’ve filled in, although unless you have the full version of the
program, you’ll be unable to save it. If you are able to save it, I recommend using “Save As” and giving your new character
sheet a different file name.

A very big THANK YOU to Kevin Siembieda for his wonderful system. Thanks to the folks at the
Palladium “Forums of the Megaverse” for advise and opinions!
