Misc Sites
Here are some interesting sites which you can draw inspiration from for characters and adventures. Mostly just putting these online so that I don't have to store the bookmarks in multiple places.
Of course, the featured links in the left column are the first line of useful sites, as are the news sites in the right column.

High use sites
Here are some of the most useful sites that I frequent for information:
- crystalkeep.com
- These guys blur the line of what is SRD and what is copyrighted, but it does a pretty good job of providing a wide and shallow reference to many D&D books.
- d20srd.org
- The most useful SRD site, also has a great encounter calculator
- dlnexus.com
- The official fan site of Dragonlance, good articles and regular updates
- forgottenrealms.wikia.com
- A pretty good wiki for the Realms, not as useful as it could be, but I expect it to be much better in the near future.
- forums.gleemax.com
- When in doubt, the Wizards forums are a great place to find information or ask questions
- fraternityofshadows.com
- A terrific Ravenloft fan site, has good information and adventures
- kargatane.com
- While no longer active, the Kargatane generated some very professional netbooks for Ravenloft which provide very good stores, adventures, and content
- rpgarchive.com
- The YouTube? of RPGs, one of the most extensive free adventure archives online
- roleplayingtips.com
- A quirky site, but contains some gems of insight into roleplaying
- starwars.wikia.com
- The Wookieepedia is a fantastic source of Star Wars information.
Secondary sites
- grey-company.org
- All about elves, with good information about the Seldarine, gallery, and the elven language.
- aquerra.wikispaces.com
- A very detailed homebrew campaign setting. Good details and ideas for your own world.
- lotrplaza.com
- Good site for Tolkien's Black Speech. Other areas of the site have pretty good LotR information.
- candlekeep.com
- Great Forgotten Realms source. There is a good library, campaign journals, and gallery. The forums are a great place to look for obscure realms info, even posts from Ed Greenwood himself!
- lugburz.com
- Another Tolkien Black Speech site, has a pretty good two-way dictionary.
- d20.jonnydigital.com
- Jonathan Drain's blog, provides good tips, tricks, and inside information about D&D and the industry.
- stormloader.com
- A good Cthulhu reference site. Has many open content books like the necronomicon and various grimlores.
- miskatonic.net
- A Cthulhu fan site with some interesting information. I liked the Pickman Art Institute's page for creating your own Mythos tome or grimlore.
- virmin.com
- A quick and dirty Star Wars Saga Edition NPC generator. It makes really poorly designed NPCs, but its random generation and lack of min-max can be very useful especially for non-force wielders.
- apocprod.com
- Another grimlore prop site, includes everything you need to make your own tome of evil.
- dimfuture.net
- Likely the best Star Wars name generator I've seen. It provides good, genre-fitting names without the random generated madness that you usually see.
- wizkidsgames.com
- The Shadowland BBS on the Wizkids site is pretty for getting the flavor of Shadowrun and decking. Fun to look around site.
- msen.com
- A wealth by level table, harder to find online than it should be.
- saga-edition.com
- A conversion site from revised to saga edition. Has many updates for reuse of revised edition material in saga edition.
