Textfiles.com has an RPG section:
http://www.textfiles.com/rpg/
This is from the BBS and newsgroup days, so some of the AD&D content cracks me up.
There is stuff worth picking over, though.

Awesome graph paper generator that saves to pdf.

In the spirit of the recent episode, Show & Tell, here's a great resource for Call of Cthulhu props. The linked page contains all free, downloadable PDFs for stuff like a Miskatonic Library card and certificates of insanity.

Good Dog: Once per encounter, you can use either the puppy eyes or valiant bark power.
You are just too adorable to hit.

My go-to resource for modern random character generation.

http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/

Generates name, address, email, website, password, phone number, mother's maiden name, credit card #, SSN, occupation, and UPS tracking number for a package of theirs.

Adjustable by gender, nationality, etc.

Fuck yeah.

That is awesome. I'm gonna make like twenty of those, spread them across the table top, and start a Delta Green game with the characters waking up around the table.

Yeah, it's a lot of fun. Everything feel very realistic too, except the "password" field. Everyone has these very savvy passwords like "EnandDAb9217#na" or "nna162nhqorp09", nobody uses "password" "123456" or "princess" like real average computer users.
