[WP] You have a sentient bag of holding that will greedily accept anything you put into it. You know your possessions are safe in it. The only problem is, it’s also a kleptomaniac, so getting them back is sometimes … challenging.	82
[WP] Your parents have always been superior-minded. Everyone is beneath them. It's tiring. Eventually, you ask for a holiday away from everyone. They take you to a fully staffed Greek villa high on a mountain, hidden by the clouds. Dressed in togas, they say there’s something they need to tell you.	81
[WP] You share a unique ability with your twin. Whatever knowledge they learn, you gain via osmosis and vice versa. Your twin went into medical research while you chose a different path. Yet right now, amidst your own job, you suddenly know the extreme pain thresholds of another human being.	80
[WP] You’re an events coordinator at the end of yet another successful function when a pharmaceutical company CEO approaches wishing to hire you. As he explains himself, you realise it has nothing to do with your current job. He smiles coldly and says “Of course not. I need your former occupation.”	79
[WP] As an ancient vampire, you’ve lived in peace with your herd. It's how you have survived through to modern times. They feed you, you protect them from other monsters. But now the tide has turned. The humans of foreign lands have started to notice you aren’t aging. Your herd must now protect you.	78
[WP] You’re a professional soldier/assassin who is genuinely terrified of flying. But you also have a system down pat. Your SO goes with you and you take a sleeping pill that lasts the duration of the flight. This time, instead of waking up at home, you wake up many hours into a deadly hijacking.	71
[WP] As a ghost, you find the term ‘haunting’ offensive. You don’t haunt. You keep the living at bay so that those who rest in your cemetery will do so in peace. Those who wish to pay their respects do so unhindered. It’s been a lonely existence, until today.	69
[WP] You died. It’s a fact. It’s also a fact that the doctors brought you back two minutes after they should’ve given up. At least, they’re taking credit for your recovery. But as you lay in your hospital bed, surrounded by loved ones, you start to question who really did send you back … and why.	69
[WP]You’re a mountain dwarf who’s claustrophobic and terrified of the dark. Decades ago you escaped the mountains and became a bard travelling the lands. Royal guards bring a message from home. “Your family was slain in a Drow attack. You must return home, your highness. Your coronation awaits you.”	66
[WP] Your party’s hired to retrieve a unicorn’s horn for a mage. The place is easy enough to find, but your brute’s not very bright. “How many horns does a unicorn have?” he asks. You answer. “Ummm, and do they normally breathe fire?” You pray he’s developed a sick sense of humour as you turn around	63
