[WP] The anglerfish lures prey in with a bright light, the snapping turtle's with a tongue that looks like a worm. Of course, predators that feed on humans must use more sophisticated lures then that. But that basic principle still holds, and has still evolved among them.	70
[WP] Death is a simple cycle- you leave your body, lose your memories, return to earth in a new body. But something is broken in the mechanism and now, more and more people are being reborn with full memories of their past life.	70
[SP] The lament of a hive mind of one, after losing all the rest of itself.	69
[WP] Sure, they sucker you in with promises of unimaginable power, secrets of the universe, legions of worshippers. But it turns out, the main thing you get when you transcend your human form to become as like unto a god is a massive amount of paperwork.	68
[WP] At long last, The Titans have broken free from Tartarus, and march to war upon Olympus. Above, the Gods descend in all their glory to meet the challenge. You, the head ranger of Mt Olympus National Park, should probably run. But you're not letting this unique biosphere go without a fight.	66
[WP] It never stops. However extreme your actions get, it just keeps going, consequences somehow washed away. The people you love slipping further into grotesque caricatures of themselves. The world getting stranger and less coherent. And worse, that goddamn laugh track keeps playing.	66
[WP] On his death the world's greatest supervillain left you, his firstborn, the tools to continue his legacy. Alas, you have no interest in villainy, and are now in the unfortunate position of trying to find an ethical use for hundreds of doomsday devices and torturous death-traps.	65
[EU] This "Foundation" locked you away forever for the crime of being "anomalous". But jokes on them. You didn't know you were anything special until they took you, and with every experiment they perform you get a clearer idea of what you can do. Soon, you'll understand your powers enough to escape.	64
[WP] An alien world inhabited by a hivemind is facing a horrifying apocalypse caused by a spreading plague that turns people into individual agents uninterested in being part of the collective.	63
[WP] Magic is fuelled by belief. Thus its decline. In the modern sceptical world, people respond to even the greatest sorcery by looking for the magic trick. But a new age is coming for magic, and it's all thanks to you- the single most gullible person on the face of the planet.	62
