[WP] All of your life, you’ve had an array of buttons and dials that control different aspects of the world. A dimmer switch for light, a knob for volume, so on, so forth... nobody else can see or operate them. After one terrible day, you eye the “Off” button with morbid curiosity.	29
[WP] You have a perfect memory, and can delve into those memories to relive them or change them, then jump back to the present to see what effect they’ve had. One day, you try to dive deeper into the past, and end up controlling your father. After this, you can’t jump to the present anymore.	25

[WP] In a world where sickness is not cured by medicine, but by magic giving it a physical form to be slain, you are the Royal Doctor. Your sole purpose is to slay the illness that seems to be passed down to every child in the family, and ensure that they’re kept in perfect health.	25

[WP] Turns out, there is life after death. For most, it’s just random reincarnation. For authors, they seem to reincarnate as any one character they write into existence. For some, this is basically paradise. For others… well… not so great.	20
[WP] The Hero and the Villain of the city have some major, major chemistry. While Twitter ships them wildly, the hostages always get at least a little uncomfortable during the thwarting of the Villain’s plans.	19
