Larmac: Classic Rifts Dbee.

http://i569.photobucket.com/albums/ss13 ... Larmac.jpg

I like um. They're laidback. Like me. Lazy. Like me. They like to have a good time. Like me. They can take alot of flack and just tell you to frak off. Like me. BBut if you hurt a woman or a child, they'll get up and rip your arms off. Like me. They CAN get motivated if need be and not ---all--- of them are drukards or sloughs. (( Though, like me. most of their families are. lol *looks at the alcoholics and drug users in his own family*)). They don't have a super huge swath of possible OOC's but one --is-- Merc Soldier. And picking MoS' for them does open them up for many different paths. (Including snipers.)

They're low MD creatures (5D6+PE) So they're tough, and aren't affected by the cold. Like me! They have 'robotic' PS which puts them a bit above your average guy, with out being stupid powerful.

I've just always liked them. They've appeared in many rifts books. Often uncredited, but I absolutely love the art for them on page 118 of DBees of NA, and also on the cover. Mine tend towards the 'green' end of the spectrum. As they can go from tan though gray to green skin. Mine (As I invision them) Are almost lime green with darker green accents.

They're alot of fun and probably one of the most Iconic and 'classic' of rifts DBees

Akashic Soldier falls out of the sky like a blazing comet and crashes into some trash cans and then picks himself up and removes the banana peel from his shoulder with a look of disgust. Pausing a moment, he draws a sharp and then clears his throat and composes himself.

That my good sir would be The Ganka!

Also... guess who is back? And no, its not Backstreet... I just like the way these pants make me look.

EDIT: I am also having a lot of fun with GrUz Maomb -- a Troll. Its a simple race but I have had a lot of fun exploring their culture and world-views.

I am quite fond of them too. They're also very useable in a game without things getting out of hand so that earns them major points.

No, for some reason I like the Noli Bushman. They just seem very ailen, yet sort of human.

I also like the Simvan as a race of "Rifts Orcs."

Rifts has a lot of very cool ones, but currently far as actual D-bees go, I have to say Lyn-Srial. A lot of my other favorite critters fall into the creature of magic or supernatural categories, so I don't think they are technically considered D-bees.

You must need your eyes checked, or glasses.speaking of Glasses, I got these fine magical ones here I'll sale you real cheap........
