Sample file The Rifter® Number 82 Your Guide to the Palladium Megaverse®! 1 Dedication – To the memory of my beloved friend, Erick Wujcik. He died 10 years ago, but his passion for games, pushing the envelope, thinking big, and Palladium Books is still with me — with all of us – today. Erick’s legacy not only continues in the games and sourcebooks that bear his name, but in everyone he had touched over the years. And that is a great many people around the world. I would say I miss him, and I do, except ... I feel him (and Kay) with me every single day. Still prodding me to push my ideas further and sending me hope and inspiration when I need them most. Love you, Erick. – Kevin Siembieda, 2018 First Printing – November, 2018 Copyright 2018 Palladium Books® Inc. All rights reserved, world wide, under the Universal Copyright Convention.

Compatible with the entire Palladium Books® Megaverse® 1 Dedication This book is dedicated to the late, great Elizabeth Mackay, a warrior woman as strong as any Shemarrian. Friend, “second mother,” and the greatest cheerleader an aspiring writer could ever ask for, she will continue to be missed. May her memory shine brighter than the light of the sun, stars and moon. – Josh Sinsapaugh, 2009 Special Thanks I have to acknowledge the contribution that John Pemberton unknowingly made to this manuscript when he invented my beverage of choice all those years ago. Am I being silly? Probably. But without that caffeine this book wouldn’t exist. Silliness aside, an even bigger thanks goes out to Kevin Siembieda, the folks at Palladium Books, and all of the freelance artists for their work on this book, and just for being a group of awesome guys and gals. And of course, thanks to my friends and family.

Sample file An epic sourcebook for the Palladium Fantasy RPG®, 2nd Edition. 1 Dedication To Kevin Siembieda and Erick Wujcik for making a wonderful fantasy setting that has allowed me to spend part of my life in a won- drous world whenever I need a little escapism. To my best friend Miles who helped bring Bizantium to life with his diligence and mapmaking skills. To my Fantasy Players, John, Paul, Richard, Andy, Brent and Okey, for all the good times sitting around the table even when we failed to get any adventuring done. But above all to my buddy Herbert Nielsen, you were there for me during the lowest point in my life, I’ll never forget our “going to breakfast mornings,” they always cheered me up during the sad days. You forced me to become a better Game Master so in return I be- came a better story teller. Without you this book and everything I’ve accomplished with Palladium Books would not be possible. While Bizantium is not the proper setting for the Elf Paladin Garret Oakenshield, his adventures remain some of the happiest times in my life.
