This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Where Are All The BRP Fan Sites?

DEAR THE RPG SITE:

   I've been reading over Chaosium Basic Roleplaying (the new one) and I find that I like it a lot.  (Not surprising, since I liked the system as presented in call Of Cthulhu, but I digress.)  I keep making characters for it, although I haven't taken (or HAD) the time to noodle up a campaign with it.  I just like it, that's all.

Strangely, I find few sites dedicated to the game.  I mean, okay, I find a lot of CoC stuff, but I already have a lot of CoC stuff.  Dig?

I know you dig.

So...where are all the fan sites with peoples' PCs, NPCs, spells, equipstuff...you know...like that?  I found a couple, true, but it seems like fan-made resources are kinda thin on the ground.

Am I a loser?

Have your tried looking for Runequest or other specific games?  Not everyone who plays a BRP game uses the term BRP.

BRP Central has become one of the biggest BRP sites of late:

http://basicroleplaying.com/

There is a very complete link page to resources for all BRP games (RQ, CoC, Stormbringer, etc.).

Also, there is a download section with lots of fan-made materials for d100 BRP and older BRP games.

Yeah I was just about to point out BRP central, great place and the boards are good too.

BRP CoC reminds me a bit of OD&D - everyone seems to be doing their own thing, independent of others.

Pete's Runequest site has lots of fun links.

One of the best is the Basic Roleplaying  site with lots of fan based stuff, conversions, etc. Sadly, half of it is in French or Spanish.
