Calling all (self-proclaimed) Masters of Rifts Trivia!!!!

Quick Original Post.
Simple Premise.
Somebody lays a fairly difficult question within the pages of Rifts.
You may go to any of the books directly connected with Rifts Earth and/or the Dimension Books -no Heroes Unimited, no Nightbane, no Splicers, no Dead Reign, etc., etc., etc.
(P.S. "Pantheons of the Megaverse" and any other Rifts™-related Sourcebooks ARE allowed.)
And please, don't ask a question about Stats -please, no questions about how much MDC damage a Wilk's will do on its highest setting -what we're looking for, here, is good old fashioned Nerd k-Nowledge
![Big Grin :D](./images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
about all things Rifts,
Finally, the "winner," who correctly answers the question, gets to create the next one.
PLEASE: NO CHEATING BY LOOKING IN THE BOOKS TO GET YOUR ANSWER; LET'S KEEP IT CLEAN. (OBVIOUSLY, YOU CAN LOOK IN THE BOOKS TO CREATE A QUESTION.)I'll get the ball rolling.
Which NPC is either an Exception To The Rule or an outright violation of the Rule that says that you can't have more than 6 Magic Tattoos (the character in question apparently still practices magic)??Name that NPC.

Is it Inkadu or Gilgimesh or rather the 'new' ones?

I don't think that
any of the Gods are sporting Magic Tattoos.
(And even so, if we do find one of those Gods are "tatted" up, I am forced to say that they aren't the answer that I'm looking for.)

even so, isn't one of the sons of Quetzalcaotl a stone master T-Man, Nauhilli the Stone Master. I think

Sorry, my friend, but I am pretty sure that the NPC you're talking about -a (disguised) Dragon and the leader of a Vampire Hunting Group IIRC -has EXACTLY 6 Tattoos.
Good guess though.

Sarael wrote:Rifts Africa, Rama Set (or whatever the leader of the Pheonix Empire calls himself).
He's listed as a Necromancer, but isn't given spells known. It's an issue which came up once when we tried to kill him. He had 5 of Osiris' body parts melded to him which made things... difficult.
SARAEL FOR THE WIN!!!!Pardon me for doing this, Sarael, but it's hard to tell when you might be back, so I'll put forth another question:
Name at least one OCC or RCC that cannot be harmed by Magic, OR Energy, just (non-energetic) Tech and Psionics.

Can I cheat and say a superhero with inv., invulnerability to magic and invulnerability to psionics? (2 major one minor experiment on rifts earth. You can also have a mutant who has continual mutation and can do the same by lvl...4 I think)

No, I don't.
Did you look at Sarael's Post Count??
It's less than 30 over the course of a year....which puts Sarael at or near Lurker status in my opinion.
That's why I apologized to him
in advance in the last Post if he will be back in sooner -it's hard to tell when or if he will be back, and I hope that this Thread provides everybody with a good deal of fun, and keeps rolling.
Sheesh.

Apologies to dark brandon, and anybody else who has looked at the most recent Question (and no, brandon, no HU, even as a Rifts Earth experiment. Sorry), but I worded it wrong, and have fixed the question in that previous Post accordingly.
![Embarassed :oops:](./images/smilies/icon_redface.gif)
The OCC or RCC that I am thinking of is vulnerable to Psionics and non-energetic Tech and Weapons, absolutely invulnerable to Energy and Magic.
Name it.

Just the Rifts stuff for the first show, then we'll move to the other games in later shows.

Which boggles my mind -- they're all so useful for one another.
