Hey I just had a great Idea of hjow to make rifts more balenced! its totaly
new and origonal

OK the playerts all play normal human vagbonds that wander the destert, but
they have these things called 'rifteballs' which are magic balls about the
size of a cricket ball that can 'suck up' rifts creatures that they beat up
in a fair fight. after they have captured one of these 'RiftseMon' they can
they use it to fight other 'RiftseMon' pwhich can be captured in turn.

Soon the players will acumalate many of these Riftsemon which they can train
to go up expereince levels and fight with other RiftseMon trainers!

Rifts-e-Mon, gota catch 'em all!

I Choose YOU PikaGodJucier! use your SpiderTank attack!
