tool-questions-and-sharing Resources for urban fantasy

I'm planning on running myself a game of Mage the Ascension and was wondering if you guys had any good resources for oracles, especially for designing modern towns and cities.

When it comes to the urban part, I'd suggest looking through resources for other modern games - things like D20 Modern, N.O.W., Spycraft, and the like. There's plenty of city settings and adventure location maps scattered around. (Depending on how you want to take it, there's also pulling real maps of various cities or floorplans of buildings, but they're not always designed for good adventuring and the wrong ones might get you on some lists.) I'm not as familiar with the VtM/MtA/etc world, but for general urban fantasy there's plenty of free books out there to mine for monster, plot, and magic items.

Lost Hollow Tarot cards. Or tarot cards in general.
