About Project: Redcap
Project: Redcap is maintained by volunteers from the Ars Magica fan community. It has been continuously active (and growing) since 1994. We welcome contributions from all Ars Magica players and enthusiasts, in any language.
Our goals are to provide a central portal to as much Ars Magica-related material as possible, and to serve as an online encyclopedia of both official and fan-created material.

About Ars Magica
Ars Magica is a pen and paper roleplaying game focused on wizards and magic. The game setting, Mythic Europe, is much like historical Europe of the 13th century, but where wizards, dragons, and faeries exist.
While the game is grounded in real history, the magic in Ars Magica is fictitious. The game has nothing to do with purported phenomena, beliefs, or practices related to the occult. It draws instead on modern ideas of fantastic fiction, flavored with some authentic medieval fiction and folklore.
