THE Single Most Useless D-Bee/Race Ever!!

[SamBell]

In my complete and total honest opinion, I believe that the race that's in "D-Bee's of North America" known as the Drahmin, are the most useless. This is because they are SO similar to humans, besides an attribute or two and their all black eyes, and their philosophy. I may be a bit harsh but that's my belief. Tell me you're opinion on it.

Floppers ???

Floppers ???

They have flooping power, and that's useful lol. With a Drahmin you should just make a human lol.

Deadboy fodder....that's what they are. Somebody else for the CS to beat up on.

Where are the Drahmin detailed?

D-Bees of North America book.
They're essentially humans with completely black eyes with slightly different perceptional abilities and the general attitude that life's an illusion.

Humans are probably the most useless race on Rifts Earth. The only thing we got is numbers for goodness sakes, and the only time we even match most D-Bees in coolness factor is when we are either modded to high hell or on drugs. Even a slurmph is better than a human in Rifts via their superior farming skills and ability to eat anything. No wonder the megaverse decided to nearly smite us into non-existence.

Useless how? Stats? Maybe...

Keep in mind though that's not what the game is completely about. It's a roleplaying game, and in that context the Drammin are very useful. It's a race that is fun to roleplay - a challenge to roleplay. Sure, it doesn't have crazy bonuses, but that's not what distinguishes the race anyways. Bonuses and stats are not the only things that makes a race useful.

It might be useless to you and your group because of your style of play or power level - and that's perfectly alright, but other groups/certain players can find races like the Drammin to be very useful merely for the roleplaying aspect.

My group plays almost exclusively humans. We usually have a blast.

It's more of an RPG trope that I like making fun of all the time. Everything always has something that is "better than human" in someway and isn't some lowly monster that's normally thought of as vermin. In general, humans are the ultimate tool users, so our advantage isn't found via some inborn trait but rather through the technology and magic that we make use of.

On a side note, I also RP as a human a lot and have fun doing it.

And full disclosure: I am one of the few people that regularly plays D-Bees - though I've changed apartments twice since I was last a player...

Wow i looked it up and just wow and they even somehow manage to live 1000 years just wow.
And as far as the Dramin are concerned i had a npc that was a amazing dramin artists in my campaign as a logn running chari when he died my who group was devistated they make good npcs and charis and i like having more like human dbs.

Ok so this race is not useless but they should be alot tougher than they are from there description i am of course speaking of the Gromek i mean it goes as far as saying they are a legitimate threat to rifts earth and they have nothing supernatural about them and their society is primitive i mean even if a army of then flooded from a rift they would get mugged by the first bandits they ran into.

Say it, say I'm right. Say "Akashic Soldier you win the No Prize!"

Don't leave me hanging bro!

" the no prize" awesome reference. I tried to get a few of those from Marvel back in the day.
