Great stuff all over the Internet
If you have creator-owned or other RPG-oriented links to trade, head over to The Forge, and we can set it up there. If you're on the prowl for more independent and grassroots role-playing games, then check the Forge's library here.
Rules for link trades: Please feel free to copy and use the banner graphic across the top, or the cover graphic on the opening page, for a link to this website. Once it's up on your page, send me an email and I'll link you here.
Role-playing sites
The Forge. This one is where I hang out, but don't ignore the ones below either.
The Gaming Outpost.
RPG.net.
RPG Action.
RPG Host.
Also, if you live in the southeast U.S., don't miss out on Jonescon in Gainesville, Florida.
The RPG Index. A great summary of role-playing games, including graphics, links, and more, run by Sebastian Dietz.
New Links!
I chose these to reflect wide and varied interests and inspirations of Sorcerer players. If you want to add anything, get in touch!
Les Evan's page, the site for the awesome artist featured in Sorcerer & Sword
Go Go Cactus Man, a fan site for the character Andy Von de Oniyate from Cowboy Bebop.
Which Cowboy Bebop character are you?
Sue me, I love this goofball, who reminds me of Bronco Billy.
Henry's Red Balloon, one of the fine stories posted at the Storytime Library site.
Anticide presents great artwork inspired by Elfs and Sorcerer & Sword, plus much more.
Coil, one of several great fiction pieces by John Harper. This one is a real find, people.
No Media Kings is simply a must. It speaks for itself, so check it out.
Creature Tech is a brilliant, demonic comic right on the edge.
Heroes of Dark Fantasy is one of the finest tributes to the great heroes of pulp fantasy I've ever seen. This stuff is what Sorcerer & Sword is all about.
Cafe Press now has Sorcerer t-shirts available, for the fun and profit of Raven, the inestimable cover artist. Wear the redheaded babe and the naked guy on your chest.
John Shirley - grand excellent author of whacked science fiction and horror, including Cellars, Demons, Black Butterflies, and the "A Song Called Youth" trilogy.
Heromachine - Illustrate and dress up your Sorcerer character at this site (no kidding! I do it all the time, 'sfun).
Entrances to Hell - don't flip, it's not occultist really, just a bunch of ... doors. That's right. Doors aren't scary, are they?
Garth Nix (personal site) and his Harper Collins site - The author of Sabriel, Lirael, and the forthcoming Abhorsen. Excellent necromancy-fantasy novels with more than a touch of Sorcerer lurking in there.
David Cronenberg - The director of many fine films but most especially The Brood, a Sorcerer flick extraordinaire. Also, the inspiration for the mini-supplement Schism.
Adopt a demon - Really just a way to generate links to this guy's site, but damn it all, it's cute.
Dario Argento - The primo, #1, top pick director for Sorcerer type cinema. This is one of many excellent sites about his work and giallo cinema in general, and a good one to start surfing from.
Dream Theater - Where rock and roll, weird, intellectual, and arcane all sort of meet ...
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa - A fan site for my top-choice actor for portraying the best Sorcerer-style character in movies to date.
Dark JPGs is a gallery of scary dark art, some of it (I'm told) including nakedness. Good little boys and girls wouldn't go there.
Alchemy - Looking for that classical feel? Anything and everything about alembics, transmutations, and related matters.
Joe R. Lansdale - The man who can write no wrong. Horror, western, surreal - these are just labels that others must grope at, while Lansdale's work simply IS.
The Demon babe comic book by Elena Steier is way fun - and those certain someones among you will appreciate the demon stripper animated GIFs. You know who you are.
Demon's Monkey - rock and roll, jewelry, and considerable weirdness. Only on the internet ...
Fantasy Graphite - great moody, shadowy, freaky art by Ane M. Galego. Perfect for Sorcerer & Sword.
Maleficent's Domain - images and soundclips of the finest sorceress character in cinema.
Walpurgis9's Hellish Graphics - about the most complete bunch of demonic clipart in one place.
Delaware Valley Demonology Research - looking for occult babble? Here it is, by people who are trying to save us all, bless'em.
Towards a New Demonology - web-article on the history of demonology; check out their "further reading" list.
Demonology entry - another web-article on the history of demonology; again, the "further reading list" will certainly yield something to just about anyone.
Totse - a warehouse of weird information (to use the term loosely); this is their occult index.
The Occultopedia - a general online encyclopedia of the occult.
Goetia - All about Goetic magic, with a list of the traditional demons of the Goetia, including illustrations.
More Goetia - Stuff on goetic magic in general, including an online edition of the text of the Key of Solomon, the grimoire on which it's all based.
Norton's Imperium - Whoa! Get this: PDF versions of classical grimoires.
The Twilit Grotto - A collection of occult seals, sigils, and symbols, perfect for props or illustrations on handouts.
