That those myths like all surviving myth, folklore and religion evolve as technology and social situations do, is to be expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Agenda Posted January 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Re: Heart Shot I was actually asking for the information to use in a Rifts Hero game. I used vamps from the Bestiary, except I defined their defenses as not working against a heart shot from a wooden killing attack (-1/4). I'll probably go with a different write-up in future, probably one where they have powers usable only in certain forms rather than multiform. It doesn't make sense to me that you can kill a vampire with an aluminum baseball bat in wolf-form. I will NEVER make vamps so vulnerable to running water they can't go out in the rain. Immersion in running water, yeah. Hit with firehose volume and intensity, maybe. But if the water in your squirt-gun ain't holy, or at least laced with garlic, you might not live long enough to regret using it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
