[WP] You have heard me oppose the Emperor on principle- absolute power corrupts absolutely. But I admit I was wrong- since gaining power the Emperor has not taken bribes, nor given favors. Nor has he stopped working to give himself a moment's pleasure. Truly he is far more evil than I had imagined.

[WP] The city only has one police drone but it’s nearly perfect. Nigh invulnerable, can see the entire city simultaneously through a network, moves absurdly fast, and has a tool for EVERY job. No one can figure out how to beat it… but you have some crime to do, so you’ve got a plan.

[WP] The sea is false. You're not sure how you know, but you know. No one seems to believe you, or, at least know what you mean. You're not even sure you know what you mean. The sea- it isn't real. It's hiding something.

[WP] It is illegal by galactic law to colonize or harvest a planet that is habitable in an inhabited solar system. All potential planets are regarded as belonging to the indigenous race. BUT, if a race makes a new planet habitable its up for grabs. A new neighbor planet suddenly appears nearby.

[WP] An incredibly advanced, peaceful species ruled most of the galaxy for eons. But when a savage, unsympathetic race attacked, they had no means of defending themselves. They created humanity as a way to remind themselves how to wage war.

[WP] This creature might by the most alien thing you’ve ever seen, and communicating with it seems nigh impossible. But you do know a few things- it is about as intelligent as you, struggling for survival like you, and seems to be willing to cooperate.

[WP] Every hero with top tier powers has it go to their head eventually. Not to say they all become evil, but they may become overconfident or self important. You, having the most powerful telekinetic abilities ever seen are... just odd.

[WP] In the future, a new mysterious drug called "Eternity" has proven difficult for police to control, not just because it's the most addictive, but because it seems to be mutagenic in nature, grant its users baffling powers, and even access to knowledge unknowable. You must find the source.
