[WP] You are a nephomancer: you divine heroric destinies based on the shape of clouds. The cloud's colour, height, shape, and density all matter. Sitting on a hill with your telescope, you hear footsteps approach.	4
[WP] The Lash of Zephyr, a serpentine whip which controls air, was tied in a intricate knot to the temple post by the past hero. It is said whoever can untie it is destined to rule over a continent. Until today, you pulled out a knife.	4
[WP] You are a famed tamer of mystical beasts. Some served as mounts of harbingers and knights, others as exotic familiars of heroes and mages. One day, a rider appeared with an urn of ash and a bag of gold, "Teach me."	4
[WP] At first, you threw a car key into the river, and denied all other keys until it's the original. Now you own a Lamborghini, Ferrari, and a Honda civic. So you started throwing other things into the river, watches, deeds, smartphones. Until you started considering people.	3
[WP] You wake up in a room. Drugged and confused you realize your face had been given plastic surgery. A woman appeared and tells you that you've been declared dead and given a new identity. If you work with them for 10 years, you will regain your freedom.	3
[WP] Each city-state is named after its guardian weapon bestowed upon it by their patron deity, and can only be wielded by a preordained mortal as a last resort. Your city is the last to fall, and the invader have all other city's weapons except yours.	3
[WP] You let a nephomancer divine your karmic weight based on the shape of clouds. The taller the cloud, the bigger the butterfly effect your actions can cause. Immediately, a cumulonimbus covered the city.	3
[WP] While touring the museum of ancient history, where armaments of past warriors are on exhibit, you begin to notice that some of them seemingly vibrates when certain people passes by. Upon a closer look at a nondescript shield, you can hear a low hum.	3
[WP] A legendary smith in the village had promised you he could make tufted daggers which can deafen blows if you give him the pelt of a steel-haired hare. You've caught two and were about to return, when you saw a silver hare.	3
[WP] Dreamcatchers aren't just charms to ward off evil, they actually filter your dreams, enabling only good dreams to come back. As you sleep, the net above you broke.	3
