[PI] You lost your sight - along with everyone else on Earth - in The Great Blinding. Two years later, without warning, your sight returns. As you look around, you realize that every available wall, floor and surface has been painted with the same message - Don't Tell Them You Can See.

[EU] You're agent 47, the best assassin in the world, and everyone knows that. But nobody understands where the hell you found the time to master the skills of sushi-making, massaging, yoga, painting, drumming and many more. It's starting to freak people - and your handler - out.

[PI] The house you just rented is beyond compensation - staircases and extra floors coming and going, rooms rotating and changing places. You just ignore it. On the fourth day, the eldritch horror informs you that you are the first to stay inside it for more than 72 hours without going insane.

[WP] You're a devil that used to seduce the soul out of innocent victims. You've grown sick of shallow relationships and opened an establishment where clients can buy theological debates, philosophical conversations and deep platonic friendships. Surprisingly, you're harvesting more souls than ever.

[PI] Sisyphus has finally had enough. He lifts the boulder over his shoulders and hucks it effortlessly down the mountainside, before setting off in search of Zeus. After all, he's been building muscle all these millenia, and it's about time for a rematch.

[WP] As a child, your mom took you to IKEA and you felt like you spent an eternity in there. On a whim, you go back there as an adult, and realize it wasn't a feeling.

[PI] The Orks find out that the Emperor is chair-bound due to the fact that he needs to keep Rift to the Warp shut that would expand into a second Eye of Terror if he weren't there. Now the entire Ork Race is working to find a way to close this Rift permanently, so he can finally join the Battle.

[WP] For fun you play a radio message backward. A guttural voice starts to speak: "You are the son of Satan! And your father hasn't heard of you in a while, it would be nice if you gave a call from time to time."
