[WP] Henchmen don't die, they respawn back at Henchman Inc. to allot their points, level up, and await reassignment. You're just 1 level shy of being forced to graduate, choose a villainous career path, and start paying back all the henching loans.

[WP] The vacant lot has always been empty, except when it isn't. Sometimes a derelict house appears but no one seems to notice or care. It appeared twice when you were a teen and each time the town was wracked by strange, murderous events. Visiting your parents, you notice the house has reappeared.

[WP] Blood from a sacrificed demon was poured into a vat of plastic, creating millions of cursed items that were shipped around the globe. Tasked with destroying the cursed items and users, you struggle to keep your humanity intact and hide the source of your power - an addiction to demon's blood
