Some personal sites are broad because their owners lose focus. Cayzle.com is broad because one person has spent more than a quarter century refusing to stop thinking about feline centaurs.
The site launched on July 6, 1999. Its central subject is the wemic: essentially a lion-centaur, with a human-like upper body joined to a lion’s body. From there the rabbit hole expands into Dungeons & Dragons rules, mythology, ancient art, heraldry, fiction, character sheets, campaigns, webcomics and original tabletop game design.
There are pages on wemic culture and society, origins, D&D implementations across editions, art, fiction and character rules. There are also free RPG PDFs and a home-grown d20 game called Labyrinths & Liontaurs.
That would already be enough for one strange website.
It kept going.
A living fossil, not an abandoned one
The change log is the real historical document.
In 1999 Cayzle was confirming links, trading banners and expanding campaign pages. In 2000 the site joined webrings and reorganized itself. In 2001 it added prestige classes and third-edition D&D material. GeoCities later died, leaving broken links that had to be repaired.
The site resurfaced with a major redesign in 2013.
It is still being updated in 2026.
The current homepage still offers a guestbook, email list, link roll and multiple webring memberships alongside newer material. That mixture is rare: the old architecture was not replaced by a platform account. It was kept alive and extended.
Cayzle even restored a guestbook in 2026 after the previous hosting service disappeared years earlier.
For webmasters, that is useful evidence that a personally owned website can survive platform cycles if somebody cares enough to maintain it. For RPG researchers, the site preserves decades of homebrew rules and fan culture that would otherwise be scattered across dead forums and vanished hosts.
This site was found in CacheRat’s broader Ancient Web research corpus.

There are easier ways to publish online than maintaining a handcrafted lion-centaur archive for 27 years.
Fortunately, Cayzle did not choose one of them.
