[WP] Transported to a world of magic, you nearly died before making it to a town. Now you stare at an enchanted dagger in disbelief. "It's got +3 Sharpness" the shopowner bragged. You read the runes -cursive English- once again: Make this blade really, really, really sharp.	582
[WP] the first big thing you learned in this new world is that magic spells are similar to a computer scripting language, which needs an interpreter to run. The second big thing you learned is that you have the ability to compile spells into executables.	576
[WP] It takes the lives of 100 people to summon a hero, and every 100 more adds to their strength. You wake in a city filled with thousands of corpses, just as confused and terrified as the survivors.	566

[WP] HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Every year your mysterious Uncle Rick has sent you a birthday package. Once, it was a DVD, 2 years before DVD's were invented. This year, the box contains what looks like a 2020 iPhone, but the most interesting thing is the wadded up newspapers used to cushion it.	554
[WP] You died and found yourself revived as your max level character in your favourite game.

[WP] Everyone receives a Skill or Talent on their 16th birthday. Yours is Dragon Tamer. But dragons don't exist.	536
[WP] Your classmates were gifted with boosted stats, cool abilities and titles like Hero, Limit Break, or Divine Healing. You got two abilities- Fission LVL 1: Break things apart, and Fusion LVL 1: Combine things together. Deemed useless for combat, the Viceroy gave you an allowance and sent you off	516
[WP] Ancient custom dictates that once a year the old or crippled warriors are led into the arena for a final battle against the young warriors, thus ensuring an honoured place in the afterlife. Despite everything, you are kicking butt armed with nothing but a cane.	516
[WP] Every great character rises through adversity to become a hero (or villain!). You're the narrator, searching for the next Choosen One, but they keep dying halfway through your opening monologue.	510
