[WP] You're a demigod, but your godly parent isn't one of the better known ones like Thor, Poseidon, or Ra; they're one of those weird and obscure ones almost no one's ever heard of before. At least the powers you got are kind of cool and maybe even useful at times, even if they aren't flashy.	112
[WP] "One always tells the truth, the other always lies." It's truly odd that no one ever thinks to question that statement if they accept that at least one of the speakers is inherently lying.	96
[WP] "Death had to take Roosevelt sleeping, for if he had been awake, there would have been a fight." VP Thomas Marshall's words about Teddy were truer than he knew--Death had learned from experience to never try and take legendary warriors if they weren't somehow distracted at their appointed time.	85
[EU] You're hungry, quite cold, but especially exhausted. You've traveled distances inconceivable to most, and now you just want a nice, warm bed to sleep in with perhaps a hot meal thrown in. The problem is, the inhabitants of Redwall Abbey have mistaken you, a sloth, for a new kind of vermin.	83
[EU] Blink. It moves. Another blink, moves again. Seemingly made of stone like Weeping Angels, it can only move when not being observed. But it is acting almost...afraid. And it looks oh so terribly familiar; the Doctor frowns, recognizing this figure, then asks them--"How did you end up like this?"	73
[WP] The last star has died, its energy and matter long since dispersed. Last remnants of the diverse life that once dwelled across the universe survive on space stations that harvest the Hawking Radiation from black holes. Then, after eons of this final darkness, a distant light appears in the sky.	72
[SP] The spokes-ghost sighed. "Look, we're not trying to scare you all, we just need to talk."	62
[WP] Every concept in existence has an avatar of sorts--from philosophical ideas, to political bodies, influenced by the common perception of them. When nations go to war, so do their avatars, willingly or not.	58
[WP] As an anonymous Michelin restaurant inspector, you take your job seriously. Which means you don't break your cover even when a spy mistakes you for another agent and drags you along on their dangerous shenanigans.	54
[WP] You're an archaeologist--digging up the past is routine for you. But this latest dig is different. Here, unbeknownst to your colleagues, you're digging up pieces of your own ancient past.	51
