The feel of Quantum Black will be familiar to the players¸ as The Quantum Black Setting builds on the ideas of many of their favorite horror-action-oriented books and movies. The default campaign setting¸ takes place in a slightly different near future¸ where supernatural horrors are real and they are growing worse by the day. Evil cults¸ horrors from beyond time and space¸ witches¸ vampires and demons all rise to terrorize this world. Someone needs to stop them. The characters have taken up this challenge as secretive agents of a powerful megacorporation. The characters are not independent operatives¸ nor are they government agents. They have neither the freedom nor the isolation of independent heroes. The corporation serves as a powerful patron who often sends them on missions. They will have better equipment than most heroes in a horror game¸ whether independent or government. However¸ unlike government supported heroes¸ they lack legal authority for their action.

As the chronicle continues¸ other threats will emerge¸ and the characters might confront a menagerie of terrors¸ including vampires¸ zombies¸ warlocks and demons. The characters will have to learn what is causing the growing threat and what can be done to halt it. Welcome to world of Quantum Black¸ the modern-day action-horror roleplaying game.
