SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
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.

You mentioned you believe in "magic" (or magick, whatever you want to call it) and that only 10% of esoteric material is "not crap". What do you mean by this, exactly?

BTW, a good scenario for the game would be the allegation of the Tsar and his family being killed ritualistically by the bolsheviks.

About the first question: I don't 'believe' in magic, I practice it. Any magic that requires 'belief' would be a kind of superstition.
Magic is a system, when done right, of understanding reality at its different levels, and learning how to interact with reality, within yourself and in your environment.

Regarding your second point: though I don't think that's what actually happened, it would make for an interesting scenario if it had!
