Welcome to the wholly unofficial Buffy the Vampire Slayer role-playing game. Based on the Buffy television series and West End Game's D6 Classic system, the game seeks to bring some of the rolicking fun of the show to the gaming table.
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer series ended in May 2003. This site has been updated to reflect the events leading up through the final episode. As always, if you have comments or contributions, please contact me.

First, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, all associated characters,
pictures, and cute little catch-phrases belong to 20th Century Fox, Mutant
Enemy Productions, UPN, Joss Whedon, and a whole host of other folks who
can probably sue me for putting this stuff up. (Please don't).
You can visit Buffy's official site.
Second, West End Games owns the D6 system on which this game is based.
You'll likely need to pick up one or two of their publications to fill
in gaps in the rules presented here. Go buy their stuff, they need
the cash. Third, the images used here were gleaned from various websites,
most notably Buffyguide.com (a
very complete site full of screenshots, an episode guide and other goodies).
I have tried to note the source for all the images used here.
There a few other Buffy RPG's out on the web for free. Two of the
best one's I've found are the Fudge
Buffy RPG and the free Slayer
RPG. While I've browsed the games, I've tried to avoid importing
their ideas into this one. That way, if this version isn't to your
liking, you might check out the others and find one you like better.
Finally, Eden Studios has produced the Buffy
The Vampire Slayer Role-Playing Game. It has won several awards
and I've heard good things about it. They have published a number
of supplements, including a monster manual, a Slayer's handbook, and a
book of magic. Their products will probably provide a much more indepth
role-playing experience and, I'm sure, will have fewer spelling errors
than this meager effort. I have not read any of their products and
all of the information used for Buffy D6 has come from either my own hours
(upon hours) of Buffy viewing or fan-created websites.
