[WP] After buying a random game, you select the difficulty and set it to “Easy”. The power goes out, and when it comes back on, the game is gone. However, you notice that you can do many things you couldn’t before now...	4168
[WP] When people die, their strength and skills are passed to the last person they hold in their thoughts. Kingdoms have risen and fallen, except for yours, where the King is beloved by all and receives everyone’s Parting Gift. One day, you, a total commoner, awaken with the powers of your king…	1101
[WP] You have the ability to survive any type of situation, no matter what. The catch? You must explain how exactly you survived to the person(s) who thought you were surely dead, in an incredibly complicated manner.	224
[WP] You’re an elder vampire who vampire hunters have failed to kill for generations. There’s not any particularly tactical reason why - they’ve actually quite impressed you with how creative they get. You were just born with your heart on the wrong side, so they always miss the one shot they have.	221
[WP] You, out of money and out of options, buy a cheap house that looks nice enough, but has had a history of murders in it. One day, there’s a message carved into the mirror as you step out of the shower: “When you leave, keep the TV on please.”	199
[WP] Everyone has a list that shows you how skilled you are regarding different things. This list is considered infinite, so most people don’t bother looking too far into it. However, you look further, and find that your list has “Mind Reading” at level 1.	129
[WP] In most horror settings, silence is key. However, in this world, the monsters that prey on people are born from silence. Entire communities are dedicated to filling that silence, keeping the monsters at bay, and never letting them appear.	120
[WP] You are the Grim Reaper. Occasionally, collecting souls gets a little boring. To fix this, you offer people the chance to escape death for a few more years if they can do one task for you. The trick is, you make the task so simple that they freak out over doing it right and fail anyways.	102
[WP] The area dims as you deactivate your powers. You should be happy, proud even. “The greatest hero, felled by the greatest villain…” except, you didn’t do it. Your eyes flick to the offending banana peel, now coated in the blood pouring from the hero’s head… how were you supposed to explain this?	86
[WP] Your child has the ability to make things they write come true. At first, this was a seemingly endless boon - then, they began to write a superhero into their lives. It hurt a bit, but you figured a protector for them would be fine. You now realize that you’re slowly being replaced.	80
