Written by Elizabeth Fischi as a cornerstone of White Wolf’s celebrated \"Year of the Hunter\" event, The Quick and the Dead shifts the spotlight across the Shroud to the living mortals who pierce the veil between the Skinlands and the Underworld.

It is an essential, highly adaptable supplement for Storytellers and collectors across all classic World of Darkness lines.
About the Book & Content
To most mortals, the dead are merely memories. But to a dangerous few among the living, the dead are sources of arcane knowledge, commodities to be bound, or horrors that must be banished.
The Quick and the Dead provides a comprehensive guide to mortal ghost-hunters and investigators who interact with the Shadowlands. Inside, Storytellers and players will discover:
The Ghost-Hunting Factions: In-depth profiles of mortal groups dealing with the supernatural, including the sinister necromancers of the Orphic Circle, the psychic dream-walkers of the Benandanti, rogue parapsychological institutes, and the superstitious street violence of the Bloo Moons.
Mortal Character Creation & Numina: Complete systems for creating mortal ghost-hunters, featuring expanded abilities, specialized Backgrounds (such as Personal Library and Sidekick), and psychic Numina powers like clairvoyance and mediumship.
Tools of the Trade & Storytelling: Equipment, parapsychological sensors, binding rituals, and rich chronicle hooks for running hunter-centric investigations or introducing mortal antagonists to disrupt a Circle of wraiths.
