Mechanics

Player Race: Amaki

These beings appear to be made of sculpted stone, but their flesh elasticity, size and proportions are similar to humans. Most Amaki live in a small kingdom in South America known as New Babylon, but their operatives, particularly the lethal and capable Duelist, can be found elsewhere, working as mercenaries, spies, or adventurers.

Amaki are naturally gray or black, but like to paint their skin everything from the color of human flesh to bright red. Most males have a growth from their chin similar in shape to a stylized beard of Assyrian or Babylonian statues. Despite this, they never encountered humans prior to arriving on Rifts Earth.
