[WP] Many generations ago you had a dragon ancestor. This left you with some biological oddities, though after so many generations they are small, like very stubby horns. One day though, you get an especially big bonus at work and you feel like your horns are just a little more pronounced.	159
[WP] It takes mages decades to increase their maximum capacity for mana, or so they say. You've got a background in economics and decide to see if "spend mana to make mana" applies.	145
[WP]Turns out Wizards never left the world, they just started using more modern alternatives to wands and staffs. Your Grandfather has always had a walking stick, but he's never had any problems walking.	134
[WP]It's all over. Your Submarine is taking on water and you've sunk to the bottom, far below its safe depth; it's only a matter of time. As the hull groans under the pressure and your crew says their prayers, a signal is picked up on comms.	126
[WP] Dwarves build all their halls so massive because their ruler is not short and stout, he's large. Very large.	120

[WP] Everyone is born with an accompanying spirit. Each have unique powers that grow in strength. Some grow in the presence of plants, fire or water etc, but yours has always been weak (this earns you disdain from your peers). One day you're attending a funeral when you notice it has grown slightly.	102
[WP] You suffer from an irritating condition you call "Narrative Magnetism". You don't know why, but whenever something interesting happens to the people you know, you always end up being there, even though you're not involved. People appreciate that you care so much, but you're finding it tiresome	100
[WP]Everything is balanced through Karma. Karma means that whenever something bad happens to you, you suddenly remember what you did to deserve it. One day you are hit by a car and get a flashback to the 1500s.	79
[WP]Turns out teleportation technology just kills you and prints a copy on the other side with all your memories. After a century of this technology in use, the afterlives are getting very, very crowded.	68
