[WP] The church says that all people are born with 'Original Sin'. What they don't know is that this sin was actually something you did 10,000 years ago to become immortal.

[PI] Mech pilots with PTSD often experience a kind of psychosis in which they begin to feel that the mech is an extension of themselves. To them, being taken out of the machine feels like being stripped of their skin and muscle.

[WP] When people go to heaven, they are greeted by those who loved them most in life. You, however, are greeted by a horde of happy animals.

[WP] You are a hero in service of Death itself. As counterintuitive as this may seem, it is not what it looks like. It's just that villains tend to kill people before their time and Death hates people messing up fate.

[WP] In a world dependant on superpowers, you though your ability of being immune to direct alterations from other powers was mildly inconvenient. You realize something is up when a friend points out you haven't aged at all in a decade.

[WP]"No im not chopping your arms off and replacing them with chainsaws" You sigh. As a black market doctor, these types of insane requeats are surprisingly common. Write a story about one.

[WP] Aliens spend years mastering human communication including basic body language, but cannot for the life of them figure out how humans who have never even met before can share a split second of eye contact and seemingly communicate plans or thoughts.

[WP] You open your door to find some religious looking people standing there. "Have you found our lord and savior, Jesus Christ?" You glance behind your door, where Jesus is shushing you.

[WP] You live in a utopian society. Really. No dark secret plots or massive covered up horrors. In fact, it’s your job to stage conspiracies in order to give eager adventurers some “evil plot” to thwart to keep them from bringing down the benevolent ruler out of some misguided need to be a hero.

[WP] Prophets and seers don't HAVE to give musings and warnings of the future in vague, riddling, or purposefully misleading ways. They mostly only do that when the people who come to them are being arrogant jerks or when someone knowing their actual happy end will cause that end to not happen.

[WP] You are a horrible villain. It isn't that you're especially dangerous or cunning--you're just really bad at it.

[WP] Your boss, an evil mastermind who's outsmarted every hero out there, makes a confession to you: "I haven't had a successful plans in years. All the stuff I come up fails miserably. Things just keep working out in my favor. I say "all according to plan" just to look like I know what I'm doing."

[WP] No one courts death like a human. They eat food that evolved to be toxic, ingest known poison for recreation, engage in potentially lethal sport for fun, and have an incredibly high risk tolerance. On the galactic stage they are feared, admired, and generally considered crazy.
