Do you live in a Rifts place?

Josh Sinsapaugh · Mon Dec 29, 2008 9:56 pm

Not per se.

Though, if you look at the magical energy map in one of the color sections of the Rifts Mainbook you will see that there is a small spot right where my town (Saugerties, NY) is located.

So far, it's never been elaborated on in canon.

I'm in the Magic Zone, but nothing specific is located here.
I'm just a couple of hours away from the Gateway Arch, though.

I live in the city of Nostrous (WB 16...Louisville, KY), often visited the City of Brass (WB16, in Mammoth Cave, KY), went to grad school in Madison (Rifter #36 official Madhaven material. Madison, NJ), and ofthen visited Madhaven. Being that I live in the Magic Zone, I have often visited Stormspire and Soulharvest (both in Lexington, KY). I feel that Stormspire would be on the west side of Fayette County, and soul harvest would be on the EXTREME northeast of the county. Thats how I get around that little flub...and its believeable given the geography of the area.

I live in Macon, near enough to the Mounds. It was rather funny. When Rifts: Dinosaur swamp came out, I had to point out to my local gamign store, that it was our area in a advanced timeline. He was familiar with the basic backstory of Rifts (had to be to explain it to prospective buyers), but nothing specific. Soon after that he ended up selling a copy with each mainbook for new players. Then he closed for sales tax evasion - always pay your taxes, cause the GA Dept of Revenue, like every state's DoR, don't play around.

I personally lived an grew up in North Dakota ..
More specifically .. the heartland of the Xitixic hivelands .. Rolla was mear minutes away from my place .

I then moved to Minot N.D. ( which in the real world has more Nuclear bombs then most nations as per the minutemen Bombers stationed there an the Cyloes (sp?) ) .

I am curious as to if there is anything in print about the Minot Air Force base an all them Nukes ..

If thier still there ( according to canon ) they could be used to the detriment of the Xit buggs ..

Well I live in Ohio not far from Serpent Mound and have done so my entire life. 3rd generation on the family farm so I kinda think this place is rather significant......

Oh you meant in game.

Well being as I've never moved all I can list are the places I've visited:
Been through Kingston and Chilicothe so many times I can't count. Dayton (Wright Pat Air Museum is awesome and has figured in my rifts/chaos earth games), Lexington KY, Mammoth Cave and Cleaveland Oh once. (Once was enough to last a lifetime....)

So that that.

Well, you are probably 300 years into a watery grave... tsunamis will do that to an island... but I wouldn't be surprised if there's some Hawaiian islands that have sprouted some variety of life... world-wide catastrophes include volcanic eruptions, which may mean a sizable amount of island growth.

I live just in the Research Triangle Park, mentioned in the Dinosaur Swamp books. They give it a fair mentioning, as it is 300 yrs in the future , devestated, and full of barbarians. But we're on the coast, with the Splourgorth raiding parties, of course.

I saved myself your watery fate by getting out of the beach years ago...and I laugh at any attempt to ransack any of the bases of the lower hampton roads.

Other than that...my family farm is now beach front property in NC. (except the family beach houses are underwater at the Pamlico sound)

Now I am currently north of the Island Kingdom of Montreal and finding out all-sorts of neat stuff about my new home that would be awesome Rifts material...like the existence of our underground city that stretches miles through le centre-ville.

I live in Las Vegas. I moved here a few years ago, and I always thought the U.F.O enthusiasts were overplayed in television and film until I met some people here.

I lived there for nearly 2 years. Was VERY happy to leave.

Was born in Queens (ruins) visited the 'Haven on occasion and now live near the border (a very short walk) of Newark (ruins) and work one town over from Madison (used to work there too (a trading post).

Oh please. I'm a hour's train ride away from Madhaven.

Which reminds me, I have to look through that book again, see if there's anything about Long Island in there.....

Basically it's in ruins inhabited by mutants and tectonic entities. However, the Splugorth have a very small outpost on the eastern tip and there are also Shemarrians there too.

I go to Niagara Falls alot, not sure if that place is mentioned in the books or not
