The Black Archive was a reference book published as part of Cubicle 7's Adventures in Time and Space: The Roleplaying Game, covering the Black Archive and an expanded vision of the setting.
It was the last Cubicle 7 Doctor Who release during the Twelfth Doctor's television era.
Publisher's synopsis
‘The Black Archive. Highest security rating on the planet. The entire staff have their memories wiped at the end of every shift.’
The Tower of London: home to ravens, Beefeaters and one of the most extensive collections of esoteric alien artefacts on Earth.
Under the stewardship of UNIT, The Black Archive is charged with finding, storing and understanding the weirdest and most powerful alien Gadgets that come to our planet. Just as this unbelievably valuable and dangerous collection has expanded, so has UNIT itself evolved. No longer solely a military organisation, in the 21st Century UNIT agents are as likely to be diplomats and investigators as they are soldiers.
The Black Archive details the 21st Century organisation that collects, catalogues and protects some of the most incredible artefacts the Earth has ever known, and the collection itself.
