Want to visit some other Redwall sites? You've come to the right place!
This page is a gathering of a huge list of links I picked up other sites and just surfing around the web. Links in bold are the best webpages in that category.
But beware! The ones listed under Active Sites you should check out first, while the links under Archives should not be taken seriously, since they're dead (inactive).
If you want to submit a ROC site, go to the bottom of the page. Below is DWOR's logo, which I hope you will advertise on your own site.
Note: This page is being completely revamped, since it was deleted a few months ago by a glitch. |

Active Sites
Ezines, like their real life magazine counterparts, can be hard to maintain, much less establish. It takes the work of several, if not more, dedicated writers to bind an ezine together and make it a series of celebrate pieces of writing that will be remembered forever by the staff, and many of its readers, too!
1) The Myths Magazine- This promising newest e-zine of the ROC was started in April/07 by Barkstripe, formerly of The Myths of Redwall. It has a decent number of articles, and several fine comprehensive writers. Any Redwall lover would be delighted when checking this out. Help is welcomed.
2) Terrouge -Formerly a Redwall e-zine, and a veteran in writing excellent articles, they feature much literary analysis as well as more lighthearted work (along with the occasional Redwall column). Even with the tight-knit forum community, the staff keep a professional air. A ravenous reader will be pleasantly surprised by their collection of past issues, many of which focus on just Redwall.
When people think of RPGs, they often refer to these: handmade sites, usually on a free server, with its own individual taste. The Redwall Online Community's foundation was built on these clubs: back in 2000 or earlier, there were about 1000 of them (or so I'm told); now, there are only a handful.
1) Dibbuns Against Bedtime- Probably the most famous club of all. This is what inspired the Dab in Triss, not the other way around. Staff is very friendly, the spirit of the club tangible on every page. Strongly recommended.
2) Fort Tatterack- With more than 100 members, and a unique take on the baddies' way of life, engage in its' many interesting activities, from assassinations to warcries.
3) Terralux- Are you hoping for a tight-knit community with absolute tons of activities to keep you online all night long? Well, this is the club for you. Classic example of what a true Redwall club is like. Also, check out there original group of forum smileys!
4) Fort Nightshade- An old ROC club brought back to life, and looking better than ever. Make this a club to remember by enlisting as a Sentinel, Scout, Border Patroller, or Pirate of Fort Nightshade.
These are the new generation of rpgs. Hierarchy and rules are more evident. For appearance, they usually rely on the template maker and functions provided by the host tto design the look and feel. Of course, that might not be a bad thing; it's easier to contact members of a forum rpg, and therefore many friendships are formed.
1) Legends of Redwall Abbey- Very active, structured site. One of the most successful forum rpgs out there. Hardcore roleplayers welcome.
2) Arthon Castle- Brand new, Redwall-related RPG featuring a place where goodbeasts live in peace. The more RPGs, the better!
3) Beyond Redwall- A lot of good roleplaying and plot-threading involved; more than 15,000 posts by only about 40 members! Explore exciting new lands and go Beyond Redwall!
5) Redwall Corsairs- One of few forum rpgs that focus just on the vermin side of the story. Is set after Redwall ceases to exist.
6) Black Arch Fort- Another alternate-reality rpg, with a rustic theme that rings with nostalgia.
7) Redwall Beach- Live life under the sun in this plot-driven rpg. Needs more players, so get writing, folks!
9) Redwall Legacies- Star in your own story with the forums' enthusiastic members.
10) Redwall Adventures- Add yet another site into your daily rping rounds. Needs more members!
1) Snowfur's Redwall Encyclopedia- It is hard to find any devoted Redwall fan who has not heard of this site, and for good reason, too! Featuring a complete encyclopedia for all the books up to Loamhedge, Katie Sullivan (the keeper of the site) has painstakingly recorded every single character, place, even songs, just for your reference (or simply entertainment) use. There are even sprites (miniature character graphics), several fanfics, a Martin and Rose shrine, and much more! Many a Redwaller will spend hours on this site.
2) The Redwall Wiki- The Redwall Wiki is like an extended version of the Redwall encyclopedia. Run by LordTBT, a wiki isn't named a wiki for nothing. It features every bloomin' thing that's of ANY importance in the books. Because of that the Redwall Wiki is now among the largest wikis of all time. There's also an up-to-date news page. The Wiki is being changed every day. Make your contribution!
Shrines
1) The Redwall Links- Veteran site, has been in the ROC for 10+ years. Has yet to update dead links, but it gives you a peek into how the ROC might have been in the years gone by.
1) The Long Patrol Club- Considered by many to be the longest running Redwall club (starting in 1996!) in existence, the LPC features up-to-date Redwall news (which we desperately need), interviews with the people who make Redwall possible, a friendly forum community, lengthy editorials focusing on blending reality with fiction, and a whole slew of other quirks and oddities you won't find anywhere else. It's like sitting down to one of Redwall's famous feasts!
