Warning!

Violence and the Supernatural.

This book may be inappropriate for young readers.

The fictional world of Rifts® is violent, deadly, and filled with supernatural monsters. Other-dimen-

sional beings, often referred to as "demons," torment, stalk, and prey on humans. Other alien life forms,

monsters, gods, and demi-gods, as well as magic, insanity and the supernatural are all elements in this book.

Some parents may find the violence and supernatural elements of the game inappropriate for young

readers/players. We suggest parental discretion.

Note that Rifts and the Rifts Conversion Book are works of fiction! NONE of the monsters,

characters, magic, powers or depictions are real. None of us at Palladium Books condone nor encourage

the occult, the practice of magic, the use of drugs, or violence.
