The Nightbreed: Children of Midian Webring is designed to act as a Nest of sorts for freaks, pariahs, outcasts, etc. on the internet. Midian is a refuge.
"Easy? To go in search of a place he's only heard rumor of among lunatics? Perhaps not easy. But is was neccessary, even inevitable. From the moment the truck he'd chosen to die beneath had cast him aside, this journey had been beckoning. Perhaps from long before that, only he'd never seen the invitation. The sense he had of its rightness might almost have made a fatalist of him. If Midian existed and was willing to embrace him, then he was travelling to a place where he would finally find some self-comprehension and peace. If not- if it existed only as a talisman for the frightened and the lost- then that too was right, and he would meet whatever extinction awaited him, searching for a nowhere."
Clive Barker - Cabal
Midian is a place of acceptance for our kind, The Nightbreed. The tribes of the Moon. Those whom the world around us would rather cast a blind eye to than admit we exist.
I will say right here and now that this is not a forum for immature Church of Satan groupies, or Spooky Kids. This ring isn't even solely for "G*ths", it is however a haven for those kindred spirits everywhere regardless of caste or subculturual affiliation.
Admittedly, I (by societal classification blahblahblah) am a G*th, and this webring is saturated heavily by the Ethos of Clive Barker's writings, it is my hope that Midian will grow to house much more.
Personally, I could care less if you're a g*th, rivethead, sadomasochist, raver, redneck, glam-rocker, or hip-hopper. Your religion and favorite band is immaterial. Have you tried or succeeded in traversing the Dream Sea of Quintessence to the Shores of Ephemeris? Have you felt a pull of your insides to a place like Midian or Midian itself? Do you think the truth is out there? (sorry .. had to add it .. eheh.) If so, then I hope that this webring is for you. Please do not take it personally if I do not add your site to the ring. There are tons of webrings out there and I would like to be somewhat selective. If you think I'm an arse, or want to argue with me about why your page *should* indeed be in the ring, feel free. Enough of the preamble ...
How do I join Midian?
Once you submit the form, I will look over your pages to see whether or not it is suitable for entry to Midian. I will also need to see the webring info on your page at that time. If the Midian webring info is on your page and I approve the site, you will be added to the ring. This ring is rated R, but I will not allow any sites onto the ring that are completely tasteless, insipid, or XXX in nature. If you have any problems, questions, or concerns please feel free to email me here. And now, without further delay....

We have now found our home here at geocities since I am losing my UF account in August. Many of the sites you will now see in the ring are tailored for Clive Barker/Horror fans, don't let this stop you from submitting your site to the ring. I would however suggest you pick up a CB novel and read it, you just may well become converted :) The Tribes of the Moon come in all forms and guises, you know best if you belong ...
Below is what should appear on your page.
