[WP] It seemed like a good idea. Put all the prisoners in an accelerated virtual game world for rehabilitation. Then the machines decided everyone else needed to be in there too. Now you're trapped in a game where the dregs of society have been leveling for over a century.	25
[WP] when an ancient manna-gathering device under the pyramids was damaged in 1830, it exploded, released magic into the world and technological advancement halted. Living in a city shielded from the infrequent mana-storms, you've overheard a plot to destroy the shield during the next storm.	25
[WP] You felt the strange surge of power the moment you touched the Smith's baby and it started screaming. Standing in front of the mirror later that day you spotted it, just below your bright red hair and deep green eyes - your very first freckle.	25
[WP] Everyone fears and despises Necromancers because their power over life and death is obvious. The Vitamancer can be just as evil and vile, disguising themselves as a healer. Everyone in the little village was a little "off", and that was your first clue.	25
[WP] Dragons do not gather their hoard by conquest, but by business. Gold is flowing out of the kingdom, threatening economic collapse. A dragon is suspected and you've been tasked to handle the matter.	25
[WP] In one world, you're financially successful with a wonderful career. In the other world, you're personally successful with wonderful family and friends. Your mind can't stand the stress of jumping worlds any longer - you must make a choice.	25
[WP] Skills, Abilities, and Characteristics can all be acquired by eating things. Eat two hundred eagle eyes and improve your eyesight, eat 1000 cheetah legs and improve your speed, 10,000 gecko feet... Cannibalism is forbidden, but there's a reason why you hunt them exclusively.	25
[WP] Synesthesia is a blending of senses, like seeing every number in a unique colour. After joining a support group for people with rare cases, like smelling their future or tasting someone's emotions, you're invited into an exclusive inner circle and made an offer.	25
[WP] No magic, aliens, or strange events, just a typical slice of life day: You have a job interview in the morning, lunch with your mother, afternoon shopping, and your SO is due at the airport at 8pm.	25
[WP] While experimenting with FTL gates, one of your fellow undergrads asks the lead researcher what happens when you go into the opposite side. 30 minutes later, the lead researcher hand you a flashlight and a gun, telling you to "go fetch the poor bastard".	25
