Canonfire! is a fan web site which acts as a repository for information about the World of Greyhawk campaign setting. The site is notable for its large collection of articles ranging from simple indexes of previously published game content[1] to quasi-official missives from authors associated with the setting, such as Erik Mona's The Final Word on Iuz and Company.[2] The site is noted for hosting forums for fans to discuss, debate, and share ideas about the setting in addition to its fan created articles. It also used to host chat rooms on the IRC, but that service is no longer prevalent and the chatroom became unused and the website no longer sponsors it. Live chat can still be found on various social media outlets.

Canonfire! was created by the members of the GREYtalk mailing list, led by Gary Holian.

Though the website enjoyed a heyday especially in its early years and throughout third edition, there is still a core group of members who participate and the community Canonfire fostered largely continues.
