THE OCCULTIST is a series of games based on the ESPER Roleplaying Game, which has become the Wizard's Tale Universal Role Playing Engine. The previous entries in this series are ESPER: The Town on the Edge of Darkness, Heart of Abraxas, ESPER: The Secret of Drom Bennacht, Julia, and The Thirty-First.

The series is going forward under the name "The Occultist," with Ian McDermott as the main playable character. A short mission, "Bridge Under Troubled Water," is in production and will be released soon.

I plan on a whole series of games in this series, with 30 proposed missions and 4 future game plots already in the works. Future installments will include a character development system based on the rules of the RPG, complete with upgradeable positive and negative characteristics. I also have "The ESPER Case Files," a solo journaling RPG, an ESPER Files board game, and my own ESPER tarot deck in production  now.
