Should be easy with just fluff and no crunch to worry about right now. Maybe it's the music i'm listening too (rock, and it's various flavors) but I was thinking of taking some fluff from Rifts and mixing it with d&d. Essentially I would take the 99.9999% of the tech out but maybe leave some of the tech wizadry. I just want peoples input on weather or not if given the opportunity to play it would at least raise and eyebrow of curiosity. Go ahead and tear me a new one if you think it's... horrible.

Sorry, but most RIFTS campaigns I've heard of were powergamer breeding pools, where the only thing that mattered was who could kill who, and how fast. That said - the "tears in time and space" concept could work pretty well, but huge chunks of RIFTS are centered around technology... you'd be better off taking the basic concept and a few other choice bits (the Yama Kings book, for example) and putting in entirely new subworlds for everything else. Heck, you could even put in classic D&D settings as subworlds... especially the stuff from Planescape.
