1. Occult games (I Ching, ouija boards, tarot cards, crystal ball, fantasy role-playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons) I have heaps of White Wolf RPG books, a few D&D books, and thousands of Magic cards
2. Ashes from fire pits, including fireplaces and wood stoves
3. Robes and detachable hoods I'm currently wearing a red bath robe. Horrors!
4. Gongs, drums and bells I wish I had a gong: a huge one that would herald my entrance every time I entered a room full of people. I do have lots of little bells, many of which are attached to dance costumes.
5. Wooden stand for an altar, a marble slab or crosses Crosses are very demonic. I have a few somewhere. I also have a little marble burner for perfume oils. The demons come every time I use it.
6. Chalice, goblet, cruet I have wine goblets which are sometimes replete with spirits. Evil spirits, even.
7. Phallus Well, you know....
8. Heavy wooden staff, sword, knives I have a 5' staff, a sword, and a nice variety of knives, some of which spread demonic butter on my demonic bread.
9. Small velvet pillow, scarlet in color
10. Bullwhip, cat o'nine tails, ligatures Ligatures aplenty. No whips, but plenty of floggers.
11. Mirror Hmm....
12. Animal mask, possibly papier mache
13. Black satin or velvet glove for the right hand I even have one for the left hand, too.
14. Large ruby ring, worn on the first finger of the right hand
15. Flash powder, smoke bombs
16. Incense Lots, but I rarely burn it anymore as it seems to tweak
17. Body paint, face paint I have makeup aplenty.
18. Metal crown with four candle holders
19. Ferns, palms I have a small palm tree in my dining room.
20. Human or animal bones (especially skull, long bones, finger bones): I have a bunch of human teeth kicking around somewhere.
21. Coffin
22. Ritual books, black books, diaries One of my black books (an enormous binder) contains my gaming notes.
23. Medallions with satanic symbols (such as pentagrams, peace symbol, yin/yang, etc.) I have a few ankhs. I guess they're satanic. I also have a rosary. That's satanic, too.
24. Occult jewelry See above? Sheesh.
25. Small animals in cages My chinchillas are actually pretty shitty familiars.
26. Graph paper for fantasy games
27. Oddly shaped dice I'm a gamer, for fuck's sake!
28. Horror masks and costumes I have a black tutu.
29. Crystals I have lots of crystals, most of which were used in jewellery-making.
30. Small metal figurines of mythological nature (and plastic) I have a lot of chicken figurines.
31. Posters of mythological beings, animals, half-animals
32. Nightmarish posters There's that poster of "The Triumph of Death" hanging in my bedroom. That must count.
33. Sexual, particularly sado-masochistic, posters Somewhere I have a bunch of hot bondage prints. I'm not sure where they went. Maybe the demons took 'em.
34. Posters of heavy metal and punk rock stars
35. Paraphernalia related to the martial arts Who, me?

I would post it but I would have to bold everything there!
Oh, the horror!

You would, I suspect, have really enjoyed Shibaricon. (.com, if you haven't seen it already). A dancer I know (Phaedra, from Madison) did a fun little routine with a bondage expert named Jimi Tatu from Florida, and it was hilarious and beautiful at the same time. If you want to arrange to get into the 'con for free, and can figure transportation (I know several people in your town who'd want to go), drop me a line - we can work out a volunteer trade kinda thing. The 'con needs more folx like you in it.
Yay, ligatures! And I'm with you on the Gong. I have a tiny one on my desk, but really want one big enough that I can body-slam into it...

versity sociology classes thought I
was a warlock, because I wore a pen-
tacle, and had long, blue fingernails
on my left hand. If only she'd had this
list, she would have realised I was
only 6/35ths of a demon worshipper.

Yes, we have to protect our children. Someone fetch the 6-foot roll of bubble-wrap! I guess nowadays the drugs they're pumping into their kids would count as pharmaceutical bubble-wrap.
