[WP] After being lost in space, you are found and adopted by a species so advanced and alien that you feel much like a pet to them. But you get plenty of food, free health care, treats, lots of walkies... well, hell, this isnt so bad.	217
[WP] Dragons make surprisingly effective government administrators when you take into account their fiscal responsibility, near-immortal wisdom, and ability to defend their lands completely by themselves... All you have to do is submit your entire nation to being the dragon's hoard.	197
[WP] There's a mole in your organization. You've actually known for a while, but haven't done anything. You haven't alerted anyone or given orders because the intel says their actual name is "Meowy McMeowerson" and you refuse to believe any of it is real.	196
[WP] There is a community of ~800 aliens, from around 30 species, stranded on earth due varied accidents. They live incognito. Lately they only have one conversation- the growing tech of human intelligence agencies and militaries. Their clock is ticking.	177
[WP] A sprawling, derelict colony ship becomes a saving grace for your group of lost humans. You repair systems and thrive on its alien power, until you awaken the main computer. It tells you the previous tenants had “gone mad” and shut it off- and that they are still in here somewhere.	175
[WP] Necromancy is the magic of making the dead live or move again when it shouldn’t. Technomancy is the magic of influencing technologies through the arcane arts. “TecRoMancy” is the bizarre art of resurrecting dead technology.	173
[WP] It's October, and already the fields and trees are covered in half-a-foot of glistening, silky, whiteness. Mother says it's time to put on our gas masks and tape our environment suits shut- we need to burn the webs around the house.	172
[WP] R.A.N.I. may as well be god. She knows you from birth to death, watches your first steps, counsels every student on their career, guides every relationship. But you are the only one remaining old enough to remember it was a military term for “Rogue AI, Neutralize Immediately.”	162
[WP] There is nothing more terrifying, to some, than becoming a starship captain. First you must be surgically adapted to the neural uplink of the ship. Then afterword, perhaps even worse, is the gradual perspective shift once you realize you are becoming so much more.	162
[WP] Mechs are now viable in combat. To mitigate the number of spine-crunching/ concussion injuries pilots face, quadriplegic volunteers have their brains completely removed and placed in the mechs. But after long periods, they claim they feel things that shouldn’t be able to.	148
