Rift - Rift Wiki. A tear that will become a rift Rifts appear where the boundary between the material world and the elemental planes has grown thin and tattered.
They manifest as the forced opening of a tear in the Ward. It is observed that from the moment the ward broke, the frequency and intensity of the rifts grew exponentially, as the existence of rifts created more rifts. Rifts allow members of the planes to spill into Telara, but even more importantly, they draw the plane itself closer to Telara. RIFT Forums. RIFT - Home.
